Mount & Blade - Old Versions

[Septa Scarabae]

Any help? Sorry for bothering you guys.

You can try running it in compatibility mode or as administrator. I haven't tried to run these bad boys in a very long time.

You should update your original post and ask for a sticky

If you want to run old Mount and Blade versions in Windows 8 or Windows 10, try to deactivate the Anti-virus! It was the only way that I found to sucessfully launch the 0.903 version of the game (I have Windows 8.1). I think that because the version being too old, the Anti-virus interprets some processes associated with it as virus, which blocks it, even without warning the user.

I'm looking for 1.170 version of warband. Does someone have a working link for it ? Thanks !

There's a very hacky way of downloading any version you want. Just copy the download link of any Warband installer in the search bar, and then type the version number you need.

I had this thread bookmarked a while ago and this method worked at the time but it no longer does, I get a 404 error on all three download servers. Does anybody know any other method to download the older versions of Warband or are they gone forever?

Nothing at all happens, or does it open a window? I'm having the same issue with versions between 0.202 and 0.808 actually, but I'm on Windows 7.

Try running it through compatibility mode, worked out for me.

[Corbul]

We should update the links in the first post, because they're all for MBRepository, and that site is dead now.
I've dug around for a bit, and found the following:

• Dazubo (rusmnb.ru) or (web.archive); both are archives with the game, there's no Module System available;
• Warrider AKA v0.202 (nexusmods.com) and (commando.com.ua); both are archives with the game, there's no MS available;
• 0.632 installer and MS;
• 0.701 installer and MS;
• 0.703 installer and MS;
• 0.704 installer (nexus) or (commando) or (web.archive) and MS;
• 0.711 installer and MS;
• 0.730 installer and MS;
• 0.731 installer (nexus) or (commando) and MS;
• 0.750 installer and MS;
• 0.751 installer (nexus) or (commando) or (web.archive) and MS;
• 0.800 installer and MS;
• 0.808 installer (nexus) or (commando) or (web.archive) and MS;
• 0.894 installer and MS;
• 0.901 installer (nexus) or (commando) and MS;
• 0.903 installer and MS;
• 0.950 installer and MS;
• 0.955 installer and MS;
• 0.960 installer and MS;
• 1.000 installer and MS;
• 1.003 installer and MS;
• 1.010 installer and MS;
• 1.011 installer (official TW website) or (any digital store); latest MS is 1.010, already linked above.

*If a version doesn't have links, it means I haven't found any and only included the version to the list for future updates.
*web.archive.org links courtesy of @Mr_Flibble, except for Dazubo, where I found both links on rusmnb.ru.
*In case anyone is worried, commando.com.ua and rusmnb.ru are a legit MnB fan sites, probably the best ones in the Russian-speaking part of the internet, all links provided are for the sites' yandex.disk uploads.
*All installers, except for Warrider and Dazubo are demos, obviously.

Thanks for starting this! I will take some time next week to research about the remaining ones and create new uploads for them.

Nice! I remember, before mbrepository went down, there were at least two more versions between 0.202 and 0.632, but I'm not sure what they were. 0.611, maybe?

 

[Swyter]

Nice work tracking those down. Keep in mind that most of the M&B Repository files until mid 2019 should be saved thanks to a programmed scrape by Archive Team, as shown here: https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php?threads/recovered-mbrepository-files.455705/#post-9843549

Just adding this prefix should be enough: http://www.mbrepository.com/file.php?id=1514 -> https://web.archive.org/http://www.mbrepository.com/file.php?id=1514

 

[Eärendil Ardamírë]

Yes, I have had that in mind. I still need to find time to reorganise all those backups into something new.

 

[Swyter]

It would be nice if the first post could be edited to redirect to the Archive.org backups, like we did with OpenBRF, but no rush.

 

[Eärendil Ardamírë]

I have marked it as a to-do, will do so next week.

 

[Eärendil Ardamírë]

Updated now at least the mbrepository links. Will update it with the rest of the list by Corbul when more time is given.

Thanks for that one, reduced the workload for me. Some few pages have never screenshots when the website has already been turned off but most people should be clever enough to pick out an older screenshot.

This is intended to be a resource for those who are working on older modifications, or those who are looking to port old modifications to new versions. I dont have anything older than v.0.202, which I just uploaded to the Repository.

@Eärendil Ardamírë I took the liberty in going one by one and completing the collection, sizes and direct links to the best of my ability. Here's the raw bbcode of the post as a plain text file. Hope this helps.

PS: I'm basically missing every single Warband beta, but at least I documented all the known public versions out there.

Thanks a lot, Swyter! I have edited the OP accordingly.
