SP Native More arrows, Bolts, Thrown (+ Download Link Available) (Lots more) [Easy to do]

[Yitue]

Hello,  Leave some replies plz so I can decide if I make more Item modifications
(For example: speed up horses increase shield size/Resistance/increase damage)

To not let you do any work  I put this little file on the internet... That will give you 250 of each kind of arrows 150 of each kind of bolts and 80 of each kind of throwing weapon (Per Quiver)

Archers

Are you an archer and you always think DAMNIT I don't have enough arrows. You start equipping 3 Quivers and a bow... Well here is the solution.

It is possible that this has been posted before but I didn't find anything so...

I was playing mount and blade and I tought. "I'm going to try figure out what mount and blade does with all those numbers in the files".

So I went looking in the Item_kinds1.txt folder and I suddenly found out what those numbers mean. So here is what I found out in those files there are names off all kind of arrows in the game with numbers behind it (Damage, speed etc) I found the number for the amount of arrows you get from one quiver.

I increased it to 1000 and the next time I ran the game I had 1000 arrows in one quiver so I wanted to share this with all of you archers out there 

So here is how to do it:

1. The first thing you have to do is check the game and find out if you are using Khergit arrows, Barbed arrows or bodkin arrows.

2. once you found out about this go to your C/Program files/Mount and blade/Modules/Native and copy the item_kinds1.txt file (Just to be safe if you enter wrong numbers and the game is screwed you can just place the original one back in the native folder) then paste the copy of the item_kinds1.txt file somewhere. *REMEMBER WHERE YOU PUT IT*.

3. Okay once you've done this you can start changing numbers. Press CTRL+F and type one of these 3 words Khergit or Barbed or Bodkin.

4. Press enter and you'll see one of these lines.

itm_khergit_arrows Khergit_Arrows Khergit_Arrows 3  arrow_b 0  flying_missile 2305843009213693952  quiver_b 3458764513820540928  65541 1610612736 410 4398046511112 3.500000 30 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 95 30 259 0

itm_barbed_arrows Barbed_Arrows Barbed_Arrows 3  barbed_arrow 0  flying_missile 2305843009213693952  quiver_d 3458764513820540928  65541 1610612736 124 4398046511112 3.000000 70 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 95 30 258 0

itm_bodkin_arrows Bodkin_Arrows Bodkin_Arrows 3  piercing_arrow 0  flying_missile 2305843009213693952  quiver_c 3458764513820540928  65541 1610612736 350 4398046511112 3.000000 50 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 91 29 259 0

*NOTE* RED TEXT = TEXT YOU WILL HAVE TO CHANGE IN THE NEXT STEP

5. The red Numbers above are the amount of arrows you will get when you buy these arrows (It doesn't mather if you buy a large bag of those arrows or just the arrows [If you buy a large bag you will get some arrows extra but this doesn't mather].

6. Okay so Look at the green text in those lines ... Look for the kind of arrows you have for example Bodkin arrows.

7. Change the red number in the line to the amount of arrows you want [Check step 8 and 9]. (You can also increase all of the red numbers... Then it wont mather what arrows you have you'll always get a larger amount [Check step 10]).

8. For example: bodkin arrows.

itm_bodkin_arrows Bodkin_Arrows Bodkin_Arrows 3  piercing_arrow 0  flying_missile 2305843009213693952  quiver_c 3458764513820540928  65541 1610612736 350 4398046511112 3.000000 50 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 91 1000 259 0

9. Now if you buy bodkin arrows you will have 1000 arrows instead of 29. (in one quiver)

10. Or if you just want all arrows to have 1000 instead of 30.

itm_khergit_arrows Khergit_Arrows Khergit_Arrows 3  arrow_b 0  flying_missile 2305843009213693952  quiver_b 3458764513820540928  65541 1610612736 410 4398046511112 3.500000 30 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 95 1000 259 0

itm_barbed_arrows Barbed_Arrows Barbed_Arrows 3  barbed_arrow 0  flying_missile 2305843009213693952  quiver_d 3458764513820540928  65541 1610612736 124 4398046511112 3.000000 70 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 95 1000 258 0

itm_bodkin_arrows Bodkin_Arrows Bodkin_Arrows 3  piercing_arrow 0  flying_missile 2305843009213693952  quiver_c 3458764513820540928  65541 1610612736 350 4398046511112 3.000000 50 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 91 1000 259 0

11. Like this it won't mather if you have Bodkin, Barbed or Khergit arrows you will always have 1000 (Minimum, Could be more)

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

*NOTE* This does NOT work with the NORMAL arrows only with Barbed, Khergit or Bodkin arrows... So make sure you have one of those 3.

*NOTE2* For all you smart people out there... I know there is a program called Item Editor but I wanted to show you guys how it works without installing any programs and this goes a lot faster and easier.


*EDIT* If you have any more questions please post below and I'll help you asap.

UPDATE as Promised

Okay so all of you crossbowmen out there 

Here is how to do it with bolts.

1. In-game you have Steel bolts and normal bolts... I'll show you how to increase both 

2. If you did not read above ^^ I REPEAT go to your C/Program files/Mount and blade/Modules/Native and copy the item_kinds1.txt file (Just to be safe if you enter wrong numbers and the game is screwed you can just place the original one back in the native folder) then paste the copy of the item_kinds1.txt file somewhere. *REMEMBER WHERE YOU PUT IT*.

3. Okay so go to your C/Program files/Mount and blade/Modules/Native Folder and open item_kinds1.txt again.

4. Press CTRL+F and type itm_bolts or itm_steel_bolts (If you just type bolts you'll get to another kind of bolts and this isn't what you need)

5. These are the lines that you'll get.

itm_bolts Bolts Bolts 4  bolt 0  flying_missile 2305843009213693952  bolt_bag 3458764513820540928  bolt_bag_b 3458768911867052032  65542 1879048192 64 4398046511112 2.250000 90 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 55 25 257 0

itm_steel_bolts Steel_Bolts Steel_Bolts 3  bolt 0  flying_missile 2305843009213693952  bolt_bag_c 3458764513820540928  65542 1879048192 210 4398046511112 2.500000 20 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 55 25 258 0

*NOTE* RED TEXT = TEXT YOU WILL HAVE TO CHANGE IN THE NEXT STEP

6. Okay once you found these lines. Open the game and check if you have Steel bolts or Normal bolts.

7. if you have normal bolts increase the number on this line...

itm_bolts Bolts Bolts 4  bolt 0  flying_missile 2305843009213693952  bolt_bag 3458764513820540928  bolt_bag_b 3458768911867052032  65542 1879048192 64 4398046511112 2.250000 90 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 55 25 257 0

8. For example:

itm_bolts Bolts Bolts 4  bolt 0  flying_missile 2305843009213693952  bolt_bag 3458764513820540928  bolt_bag_b 3458768911867052032  65542 1879048192 64 4398046511112 2.250000 90 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 55 1000 257 0

9. If you have steel bolts increase the number on this line...

itm_steel_bolts Steel_Bolts Steel_Bolts 3  bolt 0  flying_missile 2305843009213693952  bolt_bag_c 3458764513820540928  65542 1879048192 210 4398046511112 2.500000 20 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 55 25 258 0

10. For example:

itm_steel_bolts Steel_Bolts Steel_Bolts 3  bolt 0  flying_missile 2305843009213693952  bolt_bag_c 3458764513820540928  65542 1879048192 210 4398046511112 2.500000 20 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 55 1000 258 0

11. Or just do it for both lines...

For Thrown weapons...

First of all... I am not familiar with throwing weapons so I think you have... Throwing Knives, Javelins,stones and jarids?

*If I forgot one please post below*

1. If you did not read above ^^ I REPEAT AGAIN go to your C/Program files/Mount and blade/Modules/Native and copy the item_kinds1.txt file (Just to be safe if you enter wrong numbers and the game is screwed you can just place the original one back in the native folder) then paste the copy of the item_kinds1.txt file somewhere. *REMEMBER WHERE YOU PUT IT*.

2. Okay so open your Item_kinds1.txt.

3. Press CTRL+F and type itm_jarid.

4. You'll see this line...

itm_jarid Jarid Jarid 2  jarid_new 0  jarid_quiver 3458764513820540928  71368714 36507484160 209 4398046781448 4.000000 100 0 0 0 2 0 89 27 65 7 289 0

5. Change the red number in this line to the amount of jarids you want. For example:

itm_jarid Jarid Jarid 2  jarid_new 0  jarid_quiver 3458764513820540928  71368714 36507484160 209 4398046781448 4.000000 100 0 0 0 2 0 89 27 65 1000 289 0

6. For Javelins press CTRL+F and type itm_javelin. You'll see this line...

itm_javelin Javelin Javelin 2  javelin 0  javelins_quiver 3458764513820540928  71368714 36507484160 75 4398046781448 5.000000 100 0 0 0 1 0 91 28 75 7 284 0

*NOTE* RED TEXT = TEXT YOU WILL HAVE TO CHANGE IN THE NEXT STEP


7. Change the number to the amount of javelins you would like... Check example above...

8. For Knives... Press CTRL+F and type itm_throwing_knives... You will see this line...

itm_throwing_knives Throwing_Knives Throwing_Knives 1  throwing_knife 0  4259850 131072 76 4398046781448 3.500000 100 0 0 0 0 0 121 25 0 15 19 0

9. Change the red number to the amount of knives you want... Check examples above...

10. for stones you should press CTRL+F and then type itm_stones... But I don't think anyone is using stones because of the low damage and low range.

*NOTE* Sorry for this very long post but try reading only the things you need 

ENJOY​

Wow thank you a ton for this, was looking for something similar. Found out a few days ago that you could refill arrows using the battle chest, however... this does not work during siege warfare where you will run out of arrows! /sigh. Ran around looting bodies for arrows but got old very fast(lol), not that easy to loot bodies as one might think... You see the quiver on a body but cant loot it.. /cry.

Thanks for this!

The fact that you figured this out is promising for your future skill if you ever decided to try your hand at modding however, I'm sorry to say that this can be done in about 5 seconds and that's including the amount of time that it takes to download the Item Editor. It's much simpler to download that, select your arrows and change the Ammo value.

However, I'm sure there are various reasons out there to not use the Item Editor, so thanks for the post.

Edit : Oh I missed Note 3 and the fact you already knew that, well my points above still apply. I don't have near the patience to go through those text file and figure out all those random numbers shoved together.

Not planning to try modding in the future just some "cheats  " for native if you want to call it like that

No problem was looking for some feedback anyway 

However, I'm sure there are various reasons out there to not use the Item Editor, so thanks for the post.

Yes indeed, I used item editor and It didn't work properly and the result was that I had to reinstall the game No problem btw

Well that's damned bizarre, the first thing I did when I got the Item Editor was change the arrow count, did you post what-ever happened to you game on the IE's thread? It'd probably be good for Hokie to know that there's such a bad bug with it. Hell I can't even think of a way to purposefully to break the with the Item Editor.

 

[tommylaw]

You don't give a fig for realism I can see. No matter, just remember to change back when you change your playing syle.

I'll tell you what happened.

I selected the arrows in item editor and increased the amount then I saved it... And an error came up and suddenly my item_kinds1.txt was deleted and I had no backup that was like a week ago. thats why I was trying to figure out how to do it without the item editor.

 

[Yitue]

I'll try make some Sword/spear/Axe or any other weapon change... Will be posting it soon...

Kind regards Yitue

I think this should get a sticky, it's to-the-point, simple and professional; and maybe, just maybe.. we won't see any more new threads from people asking how to maek the moar arrows plz.

Thank you for your positive comments.

With sticky you mean to put it at the top of this Board? Like the mod list and stuff? Just want to be sure 

Thanks

Kind regards Yitue

 

[Austupaio]

Sticky = Always at the top of the threads list so it's impossible to miss. I'm not sure whether or not the Moderators around here sticky user-made threads or not, but I don't see any reason why this thread shouldn't be.

 

[Yitue]

Well I don't think there is a chance to let this post be sticky... The chance that moderators view this post and decide this should be sticky is small... But lets hope for it 

 

[Yitue]

we won't see any more new threads from people asking how to maek the moar arrows plz.

BTW if anyone asks just give them a link to this topic it will probably explain a lot 

 

[huldu]

The "realism" dropped under when in native you join a siege fight and there is no chest so you cant resupply your ammo. If anything it would have been logical that you could refill your ammo during a siege fight and *not* during a normal battlefield session.

Anyway, great adjustment, making siege fights way more interesting!

 

[Do not look here]

Personnally I think siege battles are interesting now. Especially with Nord Walking-Quivers

 

[Yitue]

Thanks a lot enjoy... I'm looking for more Item/troop/game tweaks and make more simple versions of magelord's tweaks will be posting soon on this board... thanks for the great Comments

*SUPER BRUTAL TAINT KICK!*

-Pavlov has gained a level in taint kicks, please pick a perk.

A) Two legged taint kick: You have learned how to kick people in the taint with both legs so hard that their penises explode.

B) Taint Bite: A traveling German has taught you how to rip off a taint with your bare teeth.
