Gekokujo is a mod for Mount and Blade Warband set in the Sengoku period of Japan. The name is a term often translated as "the low-ranked taking over from the high" and was chosen because it was a running theme during that era: Oda Nobunaga descended from a clan of deputies to the nominal governor of their province, but the Oda usurped them and toppled their neighbors; Toyotomi Hideyoshi began his career as a cook and sandal bearer and ended up the ruler of Japan; Tokugawa Ieyasu was an upstart who probably fabricated a claim of descent from the Minamoto clan--the only ones allowed to be granted the title of Shogun. As a player of Gekokujo, you will start from nothing and attempt to gain control of the entire country, making the title fitting.
I made this small edit to enhance the looks and historical accuracy of some of the banners in this mod. It also improves the look of the main menu and loading screen. Just extract the zip into mountblade warband\Modules\Gekokujo\Textures to apply. The preview picture is unrelated to the pack.
How do I get the old banners back? Ever since I installed this, my banner doesn't show up in battle, it's just a white flag.
Also, one of the batch of banners in the texture folder was named "banners-g2" instead of "banners-h" i'm guessing. A whole page of banners won't load now. Renaming the folder allowed the banners to appear on the map, but not in battle. I like the new menu, but I need a fix for this.
Strange, there are no such issues for me. I am also sure i never named a file "banners.g2" Are you sure you extracted all the files? To get back the old banners you have to redownload the original Gekokujo and replace the banner files from it to the folder. If you want to try my copy of the textures folder, pm me and i can send it to you.
As Guest has written before, banners' names are somelike moved and so some banners dont display in game or are assigned to wrong lord. Simple help:
Rename:
banners_i.dds -> banners_j.dds
banners_h.dds -> banners_i.dds
banners_g2.dds -> banners_h.dds
and it should be ok, then place to Gekokujo folder in Mount and Blade module folder (to textures folder)
P.S. Write if it works for you or not
