The Original L'Aigle Thread, for the sake of history. Be ye warned.

Actually, that's how Mount and Blade works and all of its derivatives.

Well, I couldn't tell in any other game than WFaS. Mount and Blade and Warband are both fictional worlds, whereas WFaS is based in Europe during the late 1600s to early 1700s. WFaS also featured real music from the nations of that time, including hymns, marches, and folk tunes. So, I've only realized it in WFaS, which lead me to say what I did.

 

[TheOrest007]

I don't think I remember WFAS using songs from that time, even though some songs are in the style of that century almost all of the music they use is from Warband (unless I missed some update or something). In my version it uses the music from the time and the film Ogniem i mieczem but that's because I put it in there.

This has prop already been answered but is the mele system any different from the poop system in nw?

Well, you have an up and down stab for muskets with a bayonet, and melee butt attacks for left and right for muskets.

What's the difference other than butt attack which is unfavorably inefficient comparing to stab stab ?

 

[ClearlyInvisible]

You can stun the enemy leaving them open for a kill-strike.

Docm do you have any new pictures of the polish lancers? I would love to see them .

I saw that question coming from a mile away.

 

[Patchouli Knowledge]

Well, as I said, the system for having different music in the territory of different factions doesn't actually work.

How's that?

Because when it uses the or town_ or travel_ songs it seems to just choose randomly from them. For example, I put a Beethoven song in the Sarranid (i.e. Russia) travel music and no where else, yet it plays sometimes near French towns. Seems to do the same with all faction specific music. I haven't changed the music in any way other than the file it uses, and obviously the module flag.

It really doesn't seem like Docm's going for a nationalistic tone though, which is actually making me pretty interested in how the music will form some of the tone of the mod.

The only place I see fitting for nationalistic music is the lords' halls. I'll see about getting some national anthems in there, although not every faction had such an anthem, so you'd have to settle for things like La Marseillaise and Grom Pobedy.

No, I do not.

That's because you are Sarranid/Russian. The music code plays travel music also according to your culture. Remove that piece of code to have a purely territorial music.

[Patchouli Knowledge]

I've had it do it while I'm not a part of any faction.

 

[Mad Vader]

I don't know what you did, but everything happens for a reason. It's possible to have territorial travel music.

Le Chant du Départ would also work well for France, considering of course that it was the anthem of the First Empire.

 

[Bluehawk]

I hope he's using the Admiralty Band's rendition of Grom Pobedy and not the Valaam choir's a cappella version, it's much more... imperial.

 

[Neuron]

Despite being completed some time after the end of the Napoleonic Wars, do you have any intention of including Ode to Joy from Beethoven's Ninth Symphony? I'm aware that it falls outside the time period, however it is truly a fantastic piece of music.

[Patchouli Knowledge]

No.

Besides it being from the wrong time period, it's the wrong type of music---I've been going for music of a small, more subtle and sombre style. Usually with only a single instrument.

 

[N3XuS]

Doc if I donate you 500000 baguettes , could I have a sailor avatar like yours on Taleworlds ?

 

[Vorposten]

Men, 50 pages ago we talked about historical corectnes of uniforms. Now we are talking about music? 

To my mind, music isn't as important for the game as the gameplay itself. 

 

[Almalexia]

Uh oh, shut down all conversation, we can only talk about what Vorpo wants to talk about. You know, despite aspects of gameplay being discussed a thousand times in the past as it becomes relevant or as new information is released.

 

[TheOrest007]

Didn't I start the music topic ?

 

[Captured Joe]

What about "we are the Red cavalry"?
