SP Dark Ages [Submod] Dark Age 867AD

Users who are viewing this thread

Possibly a new bug. I downloaded and pasted the alternative trees mod. Wanted to see if it might squeeze me some extra fps. All scenes were working fine. But this scene near Edinbyrh seems to be bugged.

Optional Alternative Trees 1.4 doesn't work on version 2.1
I fixed it and uploaded new version of  Alternative Trees.. test it

Dark Age is a very heavy mod.. and what is the increase in FPS?
 
My PC specs are:
Intel Xeon X5460 3.16GHz Quad Core
8GB RAM DDR3
Gigabyte AMD R9 270X 2GB DDR5
Windows 8.1 64 bit

Dark Age mod is really heavy, but performs great on my PC with 300 battle size. I have lowered the battle size to 250 because I like having around 60 fps. Now, in some scenes, the fps sometimes drops to 45-50, that's why I thought the trees might be the problem. I will try the new alternative trees mod and report back.
 
Just to mention it, i use your, ha3481, music files implemented into my music.txt and music folder. The according music is worth its own mod offer. It's ambient/atmosphere/immersion enhancing. Excellent!

I tried your mod in a saved game (2.032 beta btw.). Works, that's not my issue.
Unfortunately, your settlement changes are a bit strange, to call it so. Especially halls full of trees and such.
Also, the settlement map-icons (i know you offer vanilla files here, that's helpful).

If you would offer modular mods for all modded items, that would help a lot (just not the way as you have it, to revert back vanilla for certain items). Understand though, that it makes a lot extra work, and that you just offer/share here your vision of VC. No critique meant, just my thoughts.

Great work for the atmosphere achieved anyway, if one likes it that way as created.
Imo. it is a bit overdone, ie. a middleway between vanilla and yours would be great.

you can take a screenshot?
possible, halls full of trees it's the result of replacing the model of the rock used in the interior on the tree

I have no computer at this time..
I will try to fix it in the next update

I don't plan to expand the optional pack.. these options is enough in my opinion
- VC Balance
- VC Female Faces
- VC Horses
- VC Interface
- VC Main Menu
- VC Map Icons
- VC Music

No screenie available.

You can find it easily: Bosvenegh, straight throught the gate, then into the old (open) stone hall. Behind the Mayor and Physician linger cows and there the scene is full of trees.
I didn't check any other locations. I assume at least, that is no exception for such stone-architecture and/or environment locations.

If you are by that, i would recommend to remove any tree-vegetation overdosis within the mod, especially in and around (all) settlements. Realism background also: Trees would have been cut away, building-material and also as for strategical reasons.

Hi,

First, I'd really like to say thank you for this mod! Brilliant work.

I am, however, having an error with the installation of the latest update.  Is this not compatible with VC 2.032 and the latest warband? I get all sorts of strange errors, like "New Game" from the main menu going through all the normal "Loading Resources" screen and then dumping me back at main menu. If I try to load a Vanilla-VC savegame then it will dump back to main menu any time you fight a battle.

If this is not a common error and has something to do with my installation any hints would be appreciated!
 
Hi man amazing mod keep it up btw i love the furs on the norse and i would like more if its possible :grin: i cant start new game i have the latest version 2.032 vc and 2.2 of your mod it goes to loading screen and then back to main menu.

Describe the installation process..

I have VC 2.032 Steam version and everything works.. and on beta and on release
Are you using the optional pack?
 
Recommended Video Settings for Dark Age

Render Method: DirectX 9
Antialiasing: 8x
Monitor Gamma: Default
Shader Quality: High
HDR Mode: Off
Auto-exposure: Off
Use Depth Effects: Off
Use Instancing: On
Dynamic Lighting: On
Particle Systems: On

I recommend use SMAA Injector.

Download and Install DirectX End-User Runtimes.
Download injectSMAA v1.2.
Copy all files from 'injectSMAA_by_mrhaandi_1.2\d3d9' to your '\MountBlade Warband' folder for install SMAA Injector.

If you have problems with InjectSMAA then try to disable Steam Overlay for Warband by right-clicking your Warband entry in your steam game list, select "Properties", and uncheck the "Enable Steam Community in-game" feature.

Delete d3d9.dll, injector.ini, SMAA.fx, SMAA.h files from your '\MountBlade Warband' folder for deinstall SMAA Injector.

could be: for VC when you click on the [start new game] button it checks your Warband version. If it is old then it goes back to the main menu.

TLDR: make sure you have latest Warband (1.172)

Steam keeps the game and DLC updated to the latest versions, so as long you bought and activated all the games on Steam the version is not a issue.

a mod for VC is not like a mod for Warband. Simple because a DLC has extra checks for game versions, serial keys, etc. First thingy you need to test is if you can even start a vanilla VC campaign.

for other possible issues you can talk with the modder (@ha3481). I would recommend you add extra info like your rgl_log.txt, PC setup, etc.

Cheers
