How could see the FPS counter on linux? I have 64bit Ubuntu 18.04 and Nvidia gfx card.

I tried enabling fps counter on rgl_config, no luck.  :sad:
Same thing with the steam overlay.  :cry:

Help!

This might work: export __GL_SHOW_GRAPHICS_OSD='1'

Not all of the environment variables are documented in the readme, for example __GL_MaxFramesAllowed / OGL_MaxFramesAllowed. See: https://phabricator.kde.org/D19867

__GL_MaxFramesAllowed='1' lowers FPS and may reduce latency, 0 (default/application controlled?) or 2 increases FPS and may increase latency.


 
I've been experiencing an issue on Linux with the module Legacy of the Dragon https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php?topic=380794.15.

The mod loads up normally, but when I press "Start new game game" it says "loading the map" and then crashes.

Other users seem to also have had the same problem, and it seems like it affects Mac users in the same way: https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/1800248038/1640917196996115981/

In the thread I linked above it was suggested it had to do with the mod trying to access files in a case insensitive manner, but it does not seem to be the case, I mounted the modules directory with a case insenstive file system using http://www.brain-dump.org/projects/ciopfs/ and I still got the same error.

Does anyone have any idea of what could be causing this issue?

You could try running the game in gdb and get a backtrace, it'll tell you where the crash occurs. (More info: https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,99405.msg9054018.html#msg905401:cool:

A crash is a critical failure of the software, so the logs produced by said software would be of little value.

I'm able to play the game normally though steam, but trying to run it with gdb in the manner specified by the link you gave me resulted in the following error:

error while loading shared libraries: libcurl-gnutls.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[Inferior 1 (process 13822) exited with code 0177]
 
I don't know how you're trying to launch the bash file, and I don't remember what I did on my machine. However you should run it through the command line and not steam. M&B doesn't have a DRM, so it should be fine.

If there are libraries missing, you can detected them with ldd. If your system differs from the debian/ubuntu structure, then you'll have to tweak the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable so that the binary becomes aware of your system's libraries.
 
ALRIGHT
After a lot of trouble I've managed to set up gdb to run with m&b.

I'm running on the following system:

OS: Arch Linux x86_64
Kernel: 5.3.6-arch1-1-ARCH


The steps I took to run the game were as follows:

I edited mb_warband.sh in the default steam installation folder for warband: " ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/MountBlade Warband/" :

Code: 
gdb "$PROGRAM_DIRECTORY/mb_warband_linux" "$@"

Then I ran the game through steams run.sh script located in "~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime":

./run.sh /home/daruma/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/MountBlade\ Warband/mb_warband.sh

(/home/daruma is my $HOME folder)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In any case, when I debugged the game it crashed as expected and I got this stack trace:

Thread 1 "mb_warband_linu" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

0x0000000000edfc4f in Troop::equip_slot(int, int, unsigned long long, unsigned long long, int, int, int, bool) ()

Seems like it had trouble running Troop::equip_slot
 
Well then, you have your answer: something to do with either troops or equipment, or something related to those. Tell that to the mod authors, might help them. If it happens before you spawn in the tutorial, then it might be related to the models. Don't know for sure.
 
hi. wondering if anyone knows how to fix this. playing brytenwalda right now and specifically items such as the "godelic tunic" and "scale armor" have jet black textures that appear both on item screen and in battle. it's not unplayable, just ruins immersion a little.

i've experienced the same thing on various mods. fiddled a lot with graphics, done the load textures on demand in module.ini, nothing seems to work. anyone found a fix for this?

This is usually because on Windows, files aren't case-sensitive. So if you ask for tunic1.dds and there's a Tunic1.dds it retrieves it okay, but on Linux you can have both files sitting there at the same time, each with a different case, so it doesn't try to be smart about it, and it fails when they don't match exactly.

You would need to see the actual materials by opening the mod's .BRF files with OpenBRF (there's a Linux version by cfcohen, and for Arch Linux users it's packaged in the AUR here) and fix the problems by either renaming the .DDS files themselves under the Textures folder or changing their names in the .BRF texture references, as long as they match it should be okay. Take a look at the ultimate intro to modding guide by Lumos.

If that still doesn't work, it may be because (1) Brytenwalda may be using custom shaders, or (2) they are using a (weird) texture compression format that the Linux version of the game can't load, try opening them with Gimp with the Gimp DDS plugin and re-saving them as DXT5/3 (if they come with alpha channel/transparency) or DXT1 (for opaque images).

Hope that helps. :party:
 
I hope this is not against the rules, but because there might be confusion with two similar forums I'll repost what I've posted in the other Linux Thread:


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've been trying to run Warband on Linux, but like a lot of people mentioned I've had problems with CTDs, specially with certain mods (Prophesy of Pendor, Bones of Ragnvald, Legacy of the Dragon; To name a few).
Playing with wine resolves these issues, but creates an even bigger one: there is a problem with how the mouse is rendered, and it makes the game lag severely whenever the mouse is moved.
I've dug around and the issue seems to be this one:

104461 – [regression][bisected] Moving mouse in some games under wine causes mouse flicker and low performance

bugs.freedesktop.org bugs.freedesktop.org

I believe that one possible fix for this issue is to make an option in the main (windows) version of the game to disable mouse replacement, like it already is by default on the linux version. I don't know how much work this would be, so I understand if it's not possible. I'd be glad to hear an official response though.

Thanks in advance.

I had a similar issue for a week before eventually finding out a post on Steam.

My issue:

It looks like the bundle I bought on Steam (M&B, Warband and the two DLCs), at least at the time when I bought it (quite some time ago), force-installed an older version (3.7) of Proton for Steam to run Warband through this layer. I had previously played M&B with my current version of Proton without any issue, and was very disappointed to have the black texture bug only with Warband. On my system, it's not black, btw, it's invisible: I get only weapons' shadows on the background, and sometimes transient display during attack animations, but several textures appear as "missing" (most missiles, all crossbows, nordic sword, lances, ..., chicken, pork, dyes, ..., most wooden and tent props in towns, and some head armours like bacinet, kettle, and nordic ones _ perhaps all metallic?).

The solution:

I forced Steam to download and use Proton v4.11 when launching Warband, and this did the trick. Now, NPCs don't look bald half of the time, towns have doors, floors, and roofs, oasis have tents, and I can see my character actually swing his sword! As these versions of Proton come with a significatively different number of Windows libraries shipped with them, this might be the primary culprit.
 
Trying to launch warband launcher on a MacBook Air but the application just loads infinitely (it bounces on the dock and never opens). I would like to access the launcher to configure my FPS cap and dx but I can’t. Any way to make the launcher work or to change this stuff in the gamefiles directly ? @Callum @MArdA TaleWorlds
 
Some bugs I've been encountering:

1. Cant access mods in the configuration menu, when I try to manually start mods game doesn't start up

2. Can download multiplayer maps after latest patch, but game crashes after maybe 30 seconds of actually playing on the server (I'd like to note that this doesn't occur to me when I'm just watching)

3. In single player when people get knocked off their horses they go sliding across the ground for a very long time, usually until they hit a wall

4. When environmental shadows are turned off the entire map and the players are all completely messed up (i.e. only heads and hands on people, map has parts invisible or glitches)

I'm a huge fan of this series and am constantly checking my steam for the new patch that ends my problems. I'm fully supporting this port to mac/linux and hope for the best in the coming days, cheers.

Okay...? I saw that there's a new update that was pushed yesterday (November 7th), and my Steam hadn't downloaded any new files since that date, so I assumed I hadn't got it. That's why I downloaded those files manually using the console (Manifest ID 375929223202021189:cool:. If I'm testing the wrong build, let me know.

Sorry for the necro: It is possible to download files from steam manually? How are you doing it?
