Need help with Battle Sizer.

[Rhoden]

Greetings people of this forum.

I have a problem with the Battlesizer utility.

The problem is that I set battle size to 800, have an army of 700 in-game and went to battle with a party of 13 Looters.

However in-game when I press backspace to show how many troops are ready on my side, it says 431.

I essentially have about 250 more soldiers simply not spawned in yet, even though there is enough space in the battle size and I've configured battle size to 800.

Any solutions or should I go into the rgl_config and set battle size to 2000 or something?

Well , I've been using the battle sizer mod for a long time , and what I noticed is that whatever army size you have , that beeing like 500 + , 1000+ , the game only allows 400-ish troops in each side ( if the both armies have that of course) , basically , whatever army size you have , it will top out the game at 400-500

Really?!

Damn, I guess that's a waste of my battlesize 

Thanks for letting me know.

Well , the game wasn't really made to have 2000 troops in each battle , maybe bannerlord will be able to do it
??

You can edit the battle size by going to the MBWarband folder, where you have your saved game files. Go to rgl_config. Look for battle_size = and whatever that number is which im not sure because I play another mod anyhow. I can have more than 800 soldiers on the field and some. But the game will tend to crash if theres too many. What crashes it are the continues reinforcement arrivals so the spawning overthrows the game. if its at 1.0 for example. Try out 1.5 or 1.8. editing it there till you find the number of soldiers you want in a battle, instead of using a mod.

Actually, I ran Warband at an extremely laggy fps, but managed to do 1001 troops on the battlefield at once.

I have a video of it here.

Using MBTweak, I set the reinforcement threshold to some huge number. I think it spawned way more troops than 1000 total, but, on max settings, it started having HUUUUUGE lag spikes every 10 or so seconds. It was playable, I guess, but not fun lol.

Instead, I opted to just set the reinforcements threshold to be a number where 2 waves of reinforcements spawn instantly, and the next wave spawns while there is still ~2/3rds of the original army on the battlefield. The number of reinforcement waves was also set to a huge number so that entire battles played out in one single go. I also increased the party sizes for lords and kings so it was common to run into 1000 vs 1000 battles lol. It was super chaotic, but pretty fun. Not really a mod, but sort of is, I guess lol. It's easy to make a mod with tweaks using MBTweak.
