In Progress New update forced in 1.7.1. Game crashes after the update.

[Kvittaz]

Summary: When I launched my game today I got a random update (I have turned updates off). And now my game crashes at launch. I have tried to change game versions and then change back with it still crashing. I've disabled all the mods that I use and even removed them from the modules with no effect. I stream the game with a Twitch integration that is only updated to 1.7.1 so far, that's why I need to stay in this game version. Hope somebody can help me. Thanks!

This is happening for hundreds of people. I'm also using 1.7.1. Wish I could roll back the update!! Please fix Taleworlds !!!

Win 10 / Radeon RX6600 / Ryzen 5 / 32 GB ram

Happening to me as well! I'm on 1.7.0 though. I tried disabling all my mods (didn't work) and changed my version to the current 1.8.0 which I was able to get to work, but when I changed it back to 1.7.0 it still crashed like a few seconds after startup. I restarted my computer and checked to see if my graphics drivers were updated (they were). Maybe if there's some way to reverse that forced update? Idk if that's even possible though. Hopefully Taleworlds figures it out and fixes it in the next few days cause I really wanna get back to my singleplayer save lol

Me too. Tried everything I could think of. Tried to reinstall and rollback. No dice. (1.7.2, though.)

This is such an amazing game and I'm so grateful for all the work TaleWorlds has done to bring it to life! Keep up the great work!

This is caused by the language_data.xml files added in the update. If you remove them from Modules/CustomBattle/ModuleData/Languages/XX, Modules/SandBox/ModuleData/Languages/XX, and Modules/StoryMode/ModuleData/XX, it will work again. (XX means all language folders present)

I recommend using command prompt:
(Insert your game path if different)
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Mount & Blade II Bannerlord\Modules"
Press Enter
del language_data.xml /a /s
Press Enter
Done

Can confirm. Manually deleting the language_data.xml s works as well.

GEEZ, your method works. Thanks for the help

I don't understand why your team made such a low-level mistake, and 10 days have passed without any patches.
