Comments - pud

Shouldn't be too hard to think of a release date when the mod is "in it's last stages of fixing bugs", unless that was just another lie.

Do you mean the "Last Update" thing?
If so then it's basically just a timer that resets whenever a change has been made to the mod, but the creators have to post said changes for us to see what's up.

I think most of us hope that it will release cause it's still a fantastic looking mod, but the previously mentioned issues make it a bit hard to stay optimistic, especially if you were one of the people waiting since the beginning.

Maybe, but this is still *the* main mod page, if he doesn't have the time/doesn't feel like updating it then he could assign someone else to copy-paste screenshots from his side discord server.
This was an issue before aswell, there are many reasons why you might not want to join some discord server and stick to the main page instead, but if the main page is inactive then people can and will call you out on it. The only reason it got updated in the first place was because everyone waiting got fed up with the silence and deleted comments, so they pushed back harder.
Of course, most of us here probably don't know much about warband modding and there probably is a reason why most of them haven't implemented changing seasons or visual castle upgrades. Still, coming down with so much as a comment like "Still working on/finished X feature" every few weeks would go a long way.

You might be right, but again the author refuses to communicate so it really doesn't look like it.

I think they've said before that they don't plan on releasing any alphas or demos for public use.

The previous showcase showed a line of teppo ashigaru so it's fair to assume that there will.

If I remember correctly they wanted to release the full mod rather than split it into betas

That's fair.

Nope, not yet.

Maybe because he doesn't update consistently or works on it whenever he feels like it, updating people with "Yeah didn't feel like doing anything for the past year" might be worse than not saying anything at all.

Because he switched his attention to the discord server or just doesn't want to update people on it for one reason or another.
The only thing foreshadowing this update was a comment from a guest saying "There might be a surprise on the 25th" which was deleted not too long after

Great stuff, the detail inside castles or visibly upgraded castles are something I didn't think possible since nobody else does that.

Oh it wasn't a "look he's doing things" call, if anything it feels
more like a desperate attempt at a cashgrab, but no I don't think he's put up a new release date.

After 11 months he's released a video on the channel roughly 2 hours ago, I don't expect it to appear here so little heads up I guess.

Okay that's a step forward, maybe just abandon the discord for content and focus on the page instead, so anyone intrested can just look at the statistics to see when was it last touched. Meanwhile the discord can just remain as a community tab.
Feels like the only option anyone would come back here at this point.

I mean, 11 months without any heads up or update so.. I'll let you be the judge.

Yeah but it doesn't advance time on the map, when you're exploring it.

Will there be an option to for continued time passing when sitting in a village or castle? (Vibing with your troops when you suddenly get kicked out into the world map with a siege notification)

Pretty much

You should really watch the two streams then, they go into what's already done, how they want to proceed with adding content and just how much they want to put into the mod.

There isn't, but judging by the two videos they've released I'd guess the mod isn't coming out in 1-2 years atleast.
You might find more information on their discord server though.

9 months of nothing and comments calling it out still being deleted, the "author" has some weird priorities fr

My boy, latest update was 2 weeks ago, the devs appear from time to time to answer questions. If it was abandoned then neither of those would be happening.

You mean a few pictures showing that the mod *was* still being worked on.
You're also forgetting the absolute lack of any sort of communication.

He's got a whole moddb page aswell as a YT channel, why are the updates limited to some discord server?

Huh, looks like it's the ol' scout model override but I'm not using any additional reskin mods and I've disabled the ones included in the modpack already.

Using vanilla models, also I couldn't find any ogf files for armors or textures relevant to the player.
EDIT: Reinstalled a few times and it just decided to work, with some minor texture glitches but hey atleast it's not crashing. Now I need to figure out how to use it as armor.

Great to see a quality third person mod, though I do have some issues and suggestions for it.
Issues:
-Gun model disappears whenever I aim down sights from third person, making it basically impossible to shoot.
-Can't bring the HUD back on screen despite holding tab (Maybe a way to rebind it from tab and making it a toggle hud on/off on button press would work)
Suggestions:
-Would be great to have a 4th angle coming out of the actors head (Something like this I.redd.it)
-A way to look around when holding alt (AREA managed to do that, though I have no idea how)
EDIT: Turns out the no hud thing was a bug that disappeared after reinstalling the mod so.. Yaay

Could you make it into a new armor piece for the player? (I tried doing it myself but I couldn't figure out how to apply the model and replacing the default player actor just crashes my game)
EDIT: Also, does either (HD or vanilla) have the ponytail included?
