Prophesy of Pendor V2.x - Introduction and Release <--- DOWNLOAD LINKS HERE

[Fawzia dokhtar-i-Sanjar]

Please, Mr. Whiteguy, do some reading!  All your questions are answered in these PoP threads.  We have, in fact, answered them dozens of times.  Read instead of posting!

Your villages will give you both their previous faction recruits and Pendor recruits, so expect both.  Please consult the crashing when talking to prisoners thread.  If you have recruited any of the undead or Snake knights, your game will also likely crash when you talk to them. 

Next time you ask something that has been repeatedly answered, you may well get Noosersed and will assuredly get Fawziad.

Alright this is a two part question, one: How do I get pendor recruits? I was able to get them at one point in one of my villages was giving me pendor recruits but then it started only giving me recruits to the nation it originally belonged to. Two: My game crashes when I am in the prisoner menu after a battle and I cant spend more like 5 seconds in the prisoner menu or it will crash and I will have to restart the battle.

The search is your friend! Those questions have been answered multiple times before, but I shall answer them nonetheless.

1) Villages that you conquered will generate recruits from the faction they belonged to at the beginning of the game as well as recruits from Pendor. There is a 50/50 chance that you get Pendor Recruits when you visit one, if you get recruits from it's first owner, just come back some days later and it might be Pendior recruits you will get.

2) I believe that is tied to a corrupted install of Mount & Blade. Try reinstalling it. noosers wrote a thread about that, it should show up in a search.



Ninja'd

Fawziad.

Sounds odd.

 

[Fawzia dokhtar-i-Sanjar]

AKed by Fawzia?  None of it works as well as "noosersed."  Anyhow, he is going to get zapped if he keeps asking stuff that has been thoroughly and repeatedly answered, despite our polite answers and suggestions that he do some reading.

 

[noosers]

For your first question, use the damn search.

For your second question, use the damn search and use "prisoner bug" as your key tag. You´ll get into a thread started by me where´ll find you two links. One to the original thread and the second to a safe download for a 381mb MnB installer. Your´s is smaller, corrupted, mots likely only 377mb in size. You need to reinstall MnB to avoid that crash.

Accustom yourself to use the search, otherwise it´s hot iron branding time, you lazy sod. As I said before, checking the wiki and doing the occasional search will dig up lots of useful information for - explicitely you - new player.

 

[whiteguy115]

Well I used the search more and I found answers to all questions that have come up since my last post and I apologize for asking all those questions on here but either way thanks for the answers.

 

[quantumsawdust]

Hey, I did a quick search through the thread and mod folder and didn't see anything, so apologies if I am missing something simple, but is there a way to disable the voice acting sound files? I think having the option is really cool, I just like hearing voices in my own head and having only some things voice acted kinda throws off my inner dialog.

Sorting the 'sounds' folder seems to do a fair job of placing the longer sound clips at the end, but I'm guessing there is at least a fair chance simply deleting those files might cause some screwy bugs.

 

[noosers]

Can´t you just disable the music by turning down the volume for music in the menue?
Or if you keep hearing voices all day long in your head just turn the speakers off. And take the aluminum cap off your head. And visit a doctor.

And you could try to check out the forge for tips or the mage lords tweak file to see where to delete the loading path out of a .txt or/to disable certain music files.
I reckon Fawzia can answer this to your satisfaction though.

 

[Fawzia dokhtar-i-Sanjar]

If you delete tracks in the voice files, the game is going to look for them to play them and it will cause problems and likely crash.  You'd have to do a lot of editing in the game files to eliminate them.  Editing anything in PoP is a formula for trouble, due to SD's extensive recoding of Native.  If you try to replace the PoP sound file with another one, like Native's or Checkmatey's More Metal Sounds, you will almost certainly cause a CTD.  (More Metal Sounds is integrated into PoP's sound file - Checkmatey worked with SD on that.)  To my knowledge, the sound file has not caused any bugs or crashes, and we tested all the voice acting in beta well before the game's release.  You did not specify what OS you have and/or what audio codexes you have.  If you check out the Wedding Dance thread, we ran into some problems there with the sounds we added causing problems for some people.  Several people posted their system specs and a list of codexes, including me and Gerhart had some good advice for those having problems.  The problem seems to be confined to people running certain codexes which disagree with Mount & Blade, not necessarily the mods.  Either that or you will simply have to disable all the sounds in the mod, which would be a pity, I think.

If you just don't like hearing voices, but are not having problems from them, I'm afraid you will have to live with them.  There are not so many in there anyhow.

You can disable the sound file by going to module_ini and finding the line which says:
scan_module_sounds = 1

change the blue "1" to "0" - without the quotation marks, of course.

It would then read:
scan_module_sounds = 0

If I were to do that, will PoP start playing the Native default sound files or will there just be no in-game sounds at all?

I kind of like the old Native sounds more then the new PoP custom ones.

 

[Fawzia dokhtar-i-Sanjar]

It should revert to the Native sounds, but this may cause you problems because it may happen POP will search for the voices when they are supposed to be triggered and won't find them, because you disabled the POP sounds.  POP was extensively recoded by SD to incorporate Checkmatey's More Metal Sounds, additional voices and sound effects.  This may cause conflict with Native sounds available.  You cannot disable only the voice acting - it is all the sounds or none.

You can always try it and see - it is easy enough to disable the POP sounds, as I told you.  If the game does not crash and does play the Native sounds, you are fine - if it does cause a crash, you know why.  I am not trying to be mean to you, but why didn't you simply try it out before asking?

Most Players have really liked our new sounds, much more so than Native's.  I guess your final solution might just be to turn down the sound on your speakers or in the game itself, as noosers said, and play in silence, filling in the blanks from your own head, as you said previously you preferred to do anyhow.

I played this mod a while ago but now i decided to start a new game. While a was downloading, I just noticed this comment on the M&B Repository :  Re: Prophesy of Pendor  » posted by pasterz861 on Dec 17, 2008, 12:58:20 pm
Sorry, I must say this. Mod is very huge and very poor. Many textures are just terible. Waste my time but good luck with this mod. Many, many works to do.

I laughed so much. PoP is one of the greatest mod.

Can't wait for the 3.0 , good luck guys !

 

[Fawzia dokhtar-i-Sanjar]

Everybody is entitled to his/her opinion, however puerile.  Luckily, most people disagree with that assessment of the mod.  We are now in the top 10 of all mods in terms of downloads.

Top 3...and rising...

[Fawzia dokhtar-i-Sanjar]

Even better to be in the top 3 and rising, so there's for you and your idiotic critique, pasterz861, you cretin!

Edit: SD, wasn't this pasterz861 the little jerk who used a program to break your password for the beta download (and posted what he did) that was just for the Dev Team to test anyhow, played the beta at a very early (and somewhat buggy) stage and then posted a derogatory remark about it?

I believe that this guy was one of the very first to play the Pop 1.0 proof of concept release on December 17, 2008.  It had some errors that I quickly corrected, but his comments stayed on the board.  One of the frustrating things about the repository is that some folks look for technical support there.. which is not possible to give. 

Best,

Saxondragon

All we need to know is the guy was a twat, didn't know what he was talking about and was probably a 45 year old fat man living in his mother's basement and off of welfare because he is too lazy to get a job. As far as 99.9% of the Community is concerned this is a great mod and anyone who disagrees is a .... fill in the blanks

 

[Fawzia dokhtar-i-Sanjar]

How do we improve on your characterization of him as "a fat 45-year old man on welfare, too lazy to get a job,  living in his mother's basement, who is also a 'twat'?"

Give the grownups a break!  Try this: "A 15 year old sock-wanking, acne-covered teenager sitting in Mummy's basement in his filthy underwear, alternating between playing PoP and visiting porn sites on the net for self-abuse purposes?"

 

[Selvhan]

I'd say just play the wedding dance. There is always some half naked women everywhere. Don't waist your time watching porn.

隐藏

The only problem is that those half naked women are often weilding a sword in their hand and are trying to kill you... but shhhht

In the next version of PoP ... :
                                              Is it possible to make the great army ( minor faction such as the Heretic ) siege and capture Castles ? Because it's great to have them walking the land and killing everyone, but since they never capture a castle or a town, they are not a "real" threat. Maybe , in the future, someone will create a script to raze the city/castle.

What lead me to ask a second question. Would it possible to build your own castle ? Find a good spot, pay the villagers around to work and 1, 2 or 3 years later you could have your own castle ! ( This mean you have to recruit an engineering and an architect ... $$$ )

 

[Fawzia dokhtar-i-Sanjar]

Selvhan, what is going to happen in the next PoP is already set and being worked on, if not already done, (Read SD's post) so further suggestions are not needed.  Thank you all the same.  Cheers, F

How bout a fat 15 year old sock wanking, acne covered, to lazy to get up to take a **** sitting in mommy's basement in his crusty stiff underwear alternating between lesbian and goat porn?
