How is that new? Marriage issue and lords not going to parties is an issue only with 1.16x versions of Warband, if you don't want to have those issues you need to play in 1.15x versions. This mod has some really old scripts and I'm making it in 1.158, I even announced it for v1.153 - v1.158 when launched it, but because it seemed to work fine in 1.16x I removed the requirement, but well there are those issues so if you want to play it without them play in 1.158

I have done some testing on version 1.168, all feasts and party assemblies seemed to work, and I tried to have my character marry which worked fine as well, so maybe it is an issue only specific for you ruitadaiogo? Because for me it all seems to work.
(The only (new?) bug I have encountered so far is that the headwear of muslim ladies is not correctly on their head but flying in front of them).
The blood looks a lot better now and is really visible, also with the current sounds there are no issues at all, no delay whatsoever, it runs perfectly pleasant and smooth, thanks for that! And I am sure as the mod progresses it will later on be possible to have the sounds optional, so that everyone can choose what works best for him/her.

Another question: AD1257 had a feature that when your player character fell unconscious in combat you could proceed to play as one of your bots/party members instead of just watching the battle, is that something that you could imagine being implemented?(optionally?)

Strange that you have the headcloth issue to me it doesn't happen. I would need to change the code but is possible although I can only focus on scenes atm. Well about the marriage and lords in parties some said they have issues since I'm doing the mod in 1.158 and don't have those issues I assumed it was in 1.16x but if you say to you everything works fine in newest version then I don't know... Again the headcloth I don't know what to say to me is working fine, anyone else has this happening? Also you mean noble ladies or the peasants?

It's only a minor issue, but so you know: I have only encountered with a few noble ladies and a particular type of headcloth, here an image:

There was some sounds missing from "more metal sounds" in v0.7 that I added now, but I doubt it would decreased performance. Although I added this line close to the end of module.ini horses_rear_with_attack = 1 and also activated crouch (can_crouch = 1) so maybe try deactivate those things, especially horses_rear_with_attack = 1

deactivate means put a 0?
what "horse rear with attack" and "crouch" does?

It does what it says lol but I really doubt it has any influence. I uploaded a screenshot crouching. Yes to deactivate just change from 1 to 0.

Was that a random thing or is still happening? Just as info different things for battle in this version: in module.ini: can_crouch = 1 which means is activated, also added this line: horses_rear_with_attack = 1 Other changes: blood was reverted to V0.7, sounds were also reverted but there was actually missing some sounds from "more metal sounds" so it actually has new sounds. Also added fade effect to transition when entering scene. That's all, you can try deactivate that extra stuff from module.ini but can't see how that would affect performance when joining a battle. The fade effect certainly doesn't decrease stability, to me it actually seemed to increase it, but is probably some coincidence.

Sads of Faith : textures-60% , battlesize 150, Laigle : textures 70% ,battlesize 300, deep effects -on (only the one mod i use that option ), Viking Conquest: textures 100%(othewise game looks like mod from 2008), battlesize 200 but must be setup in game not by Warband battlesizer, if i use battlesizer :instead 200 i have something like 750

vers 1.67-- and yes they dont come to partys and we cant have fun with ladies....maybe its a Templar tradition :)

Well, all christian orders do NOT have any ladies in their faction who would attend parties, because as you said it's 'tradition'. Well, it only makes historically sense that way because they were essentially monks who swore vows of chastity, would be weird to see women around! (In fact it should probably be added in that it is impossible to marry while you are in any monk-warrior order or get kicked out if you do so).

Also: Try updating to 1.68

For Templars and Hospitallers that's normal, I wonder if everyone reporting that "bug" isn't just playing as a MONK. I know I always forget about that "little" difference but you guys need to give all information.

Maybe someone mentioned this:

Most of town of Archas map icon is deep inside hill. Maybe you could not set it on the ground, I don't know, but I will mention it anyway.

Great work, as usual

Lower graphics settings. The textures in this mod are a bit system heavy.
