An updated, STANDALONE version of the alpha release for Legacy of the Dragon, a Mount&Blade;: Warband mod with a high fantasy setting. Not save-game compatible.
NOTE: I believe labeling this "Full Release" would help attracting more players as most refrain from playing alphas. However, although LOTD is playable, working and (in my opinion) fun at its current state, it still lacks many features I want to include in 1.0. Magic system is merely a placeholder for the one in my head. In addition to those I want to introduce voice acting for each race and music to replace the default Warband soundtrack, complete NPC companion strings (some are/were complete, some are missing) and a questline for each minor faction. Until I add those to the mod, I'll stick to the "Early Access" label.
This version includes fixes for merchant dialogue bugs, some new bandit groups and various other small changes. It isn't much different from the previous version regarding content.
Legacy of the Dragon is an upcoming high fantasy mod for Mount&Blade: Warband (1.171 and above) which entirely revamps the map and the lore of the base game.
The mod features a classical high fantasy setting with elves, dwarves, dragons, orcs, goblins, giants, wizards and so on. Legacy of the Dragon inherits most of the gameplay aspects of the base game but offers a new experience in a land of magic. The players will be able to create their characters belonging to one of the 5 fantasy races in addition to humans, cast various kinds of magic, summon undead and demons, practice alchemy and venture into dungeons in search of plunder or glory.
I didn't have any kind of coding experience when I started this project and it was also the first time I ever touched a modeling software. If you go through my post history, you will see all the newbie questions I have asked on modding forums. So, compared to many other fantasy mods you might consider this a little unpolished. However, my technical incapability isn't the only reason for this. I like the graphics and gameplay of the base game as it is and there were times I decreased the quality of the OSP meshes/textures I used to fit in with game's overall graphical quality. So this mod might not be for everyone. Also, at first it started as a personal mod, but a few weeks ago I decided to release it to the public.
This is an alpha release and it is far from where I wanted it to be on release. Strings and dialogues aren't proofread, many features I wanted to have it on release aren't there yet. However, for me it's playable and fun, hoping some of you will feel the same way.

guspav and all contributors of Phantasy Calradia and Perisno for creating such influential mods
As I decided to release the mod rather recently, I've been doing some cleaning of non-OSP assets for last few weeks. If I missed one, please PM me and I will delete the download link and remove the assets. If I'm not active on the website, I'm hoping one of the moderators will do the job for me.
Nice to see you came back and you are working on it again :D
PS: Do you have already somebody in mind to make the voice acting lines?
Hey.
I'm thinking Chris Metzen.
May I suggest you to talk to Comrade Crimson? He made an awesome job for my mod: Forums.taleworlds.com
I really appreciate this, mike, thanks. I'll contact him.
I second ComradeCrimson. He recorded lines for 2 of my mods, doing a great job both times.

is this mod going to be added onto steam to make it easier to download and play?
Downloading mods on moddb is this simple: Download mod, move mod into mod folder, Done! Stop being lazy and stop expecting the world to adapt to your lazyness.
It is on steam workshop too.
unable to open ccomon.res.textures.ui or something like that
If you are looking for voice acting i might suggest Reformist he has an amazing voice and is loving your mod.
