The LOLLord's little tweaks for 1.105-1.113!!!!

[LOLLord Ben]

Here we go.
Hello young parsons, I'd like to share this with all my fellow M&B-niacs!

!!!Important!!!
These fixes need a UNMODIFIED Version of all Files of your current Patch 1.1X Version - some will also work in older Versions and even work in future Versions.
Backup your Original "Native Folder" and just replace modded Files from your backup or the whole Folder when you "screw up".
Now:
The numbers you have to change are marked in Colors. Red if it is only one Value, other important Values (when needed) are marked in other colors, and there is a short description behind some Values, what they'll do.
If I mean "Search for", you just copy what I wrote down and search for it (and I mean EXACTLY how it's provided!).
Then go to the next step, don't think about "that Text is longer/looks different on my file.", when your Notepad finds the part of Text as you copied it from here, you're in the right spot - my shorties are just a fraction of the original text as it will appear in your files.
ALL FIXES go in Order! You just don't change Step 4, then go to Fix Step 2, etc.; you gotta work exactly like these Steps tell you.
Most of 'em can be searched the same way even after you modified them, you just have to look for the right spot yourself then - remember: this is ONLY for UNMODIFIED Files, if your Files are already modified, then you have to improvise and think and look carefully for the changed Values.

Enjoy!
PS: Credits and Kudos to MageLord, who found all this out, I just made it work with 1.111 1.113

PPS: As far as I'Ve tried, most of these tweaks need you to start a new game, they're/they should all be Savegame-compatible! Yay!

For 1.113: I've screwed up  - since the scripts are changed for the Ransom, you can make the Tavernkeeper BUY Prisoners - but for 0 Denars each  so there's something wrong and more complicated since they made the pricing more "dynamic".

Cattle behaves like Lords [Follows you]:[1.105-1.113!]

Note: You still have to click on the Cattle, open the dialoge and click on "Drive Cattle onward" - they'll follow you, what you'll see if you point yer mouse over 'em - they' should say "Accompanying X" where X is yer name!

Same amount of Bandits as in V1.105 (for those who like the "trouble" those loads of maurauders give - the devs lowered the amount in 1.110 and kept it in 1.111; Compatible with 1.113!)

Sell Prisoners to Tavern Keepers:

Notice that 962 and 942 link to the same Dialoge menus as befor, but they changed the numbers the links go to - they did it in 1.110 and 1.111 and this is the reason why the same fix in TweakMB wasn't working.

Here's one more for you:
10 instead of 5 additional Units per Leadership Level:[1.105-1.113!]

1. Search for: 1224979098644774912 3 2107 2 1224979098644774914 5
2. Replace 5 with 10 and there you have it - each point on Leadership gives you 10 instead of 5 Bonus on Troop size. Found this thx to the Module system XD This forum 's great one.

So have fun, this is it for now. Just some random tweaks I love to use, and I still work on them.
Again, TheMageLord is the one who found most (all?) of 'em and therefore he ain't the Lord- He's TheMageGOD! 
Peace!

Edit: All checked and ready for 1.113.

If you want to find out some stuff like that, search the forums to set up the Python-System and download the Warband Module System 1.105 - then set it up using all the steps necessary and you're done. Just keep in mind - most of the Scripts are the same in all Versions, but esp. the dialoge and triggers change their dependencies and meanings, link and much more with every patch - that's why I got multiple "Sell Prisoners" for example.

 

[LOLLord Ben]

And YES I love it complicated and I love to do LOOOOTS of Modding just by editing by hand, I don't like cheesy Programs other than my HexWorks and Notepad.

 

[Baleur]

Why not just download TweakMB?
I mean considering you have to change it everytime there's a new patch.

Lol, done that. It just doesn't change the right things, for ex. the Tavern Guy wasn't buying prisoners. Because the friggin' TweakMB changed the wrong parameter! Instead of I_have_got_prisoners_to_sell.  960 it put in I_have_got_prisoners_to_sell.  956, and that links (in patch 1.110 AND 1.111) to CLOSE_WINDOW, so the window closed as soon as I clicked on "I have got Prisoners". It's just some of those long numbers are different in every patch, coz they add new Dialoge options and Lines, so everytime you patch, something has changed. And that 956 that links to the Selling Window is linked to close_window in the new patch. TweakMB isn't fully comp. with WB, ain't it? Coz it still says "WARBAND" in Red, under "Vanilla".

So there's a reason I made this like it is: one can learn to understand WHAT to change if he'd compare the original files, the changes MageGod made and my changes. So one'd be save everytime a patch comes out, coz he/she'd know what has to be searched and changed. I got 3 different Textfiles on my desktop, for all the patches, that contain possible changes for 1.105, 1.110 and 1.111.

Edit: Just seen, 0.90 of TweakMB fixes the Prison Sell Dialoge for 1.111, lol.
But I'll stick with my Notepad, ol' trusty one. But thx for reminding!

LOLLord Ben,

With your alot of modding experiences, you should try official modding tools called module system, this is designed for you where it allow you to do everything, especially add new stuff to mount and blade warband in python language.  You have alot of potentials!

Hmm, I've seen Python in M&B, but not for Warband yet; haven't looked for a while though 

Ed: Nevermind! Found it, downloaded it, now I'm set to edit for a loooong time! Awesome! Skill editing? Hell yeah! Just what I needed.
Wasn't The "Gothic"-Series using Python? Sounds good to me!

Handy tips, thanx

Excellent, I truly look forward to your projects you will be doing for mount and blade warband mods!

Good to see people can figure these scripts out.

However, all of these tweaks are covered in TweakMB

[Rhythalion]

Do these need a new game to take effect?

The cows following and more $ for goods merchant changes don't appear to work 

Isn't tweakMB not fully compatible with Warband as Sargoth is half-sunk in the ground when you enter it?

Tweakmb is warband compatible.
The sinking in the ground is not from tweakmb, but from the siege mod that adds an extra ladder.

Hmm... the money for the merchants should upgrade after at most 1 day in-game.
The cows, you approach them, click on them, then click on "Drive onward" and when you move the mouse over them, it should say "Accompanying XXX" or something like it (where XXX is your player name).

Edit: Sad thing is, I made mods for Max Payne, Jagged Alliance, X2, X3, Gothic, Sea Dogs 2, SWAT4, Rainbow Six 1+3, Operation Flashpoint, Arma1+2, Fallout1+2, etc., lots of games, but never actually been able to share my mods (I only got I-Net since 1 1/2 years now - been offline for all those other years, lol ); I just lack the "understanding" to explain something to someone - it's just all in my head, but I can hardly explain some things coz - well, that's me. I tried best to write down how to do it, so when it's not working - well I'll try to help!

 

[Rhythalion]

I must correct myself, the goods merchant money did indeed update after a day or so in-game, but those cows are still running away 

I'll double check what I did, i'll probably find I did something wrong

Well, dont do it 10, coz then you and your units 'd get 5.000+ of XP per training Session.

Edit of Edit: 
'tis all for now.
Would be nice if some1 else 'd check and actually tell me "yeah that worked" coz right now I only suspect that some might have tried, others maybe got confused and gave up, so why not try it and give me a feedback pls; I don't wanna get millions of "Thx!" or so, just some random modder to TRY

For the "1000 but 100" = I don't get it. When you search for 1224979098644774919 2108 2 1224979098644774920 1000 you replace 1000 with 500 = 1224979098644774919 2108 2 1224979098644774920 500; any Value with 100 is something else, like dividers for your picked opponent in the Sparring etc. So it MUST be 1000.


Lord's Duel = Never changed that, good Idea though. I'll try figure it out. I'm tired right now so it has to wait a bit
