I'd love to keep playing this mod, but the error (2281, 682, 8 "Get closest center or two") keeps blocking my feed every time I start playing. I'll wait for the patch
Sorry about that, it has been resolved.
Hello, the last version of the mod there is a problem, de face of Nizar is invisible, but the mod is great!
It's alredy translated in spanish?
No, sorry.
Great mod! I'm liking it a lot. Wish I'd found it sooner. Any plans to add eastern England or Iceland? Or ships/ports from Bryt/VC?
What's New?
Version 5.5
-Bugfixes (mainly, the formation system is fixed and expanded, with more troop divisions and fixes, by tocan)
-Duelling enemy commander & Chatting during battle, based on the script by Computica
-New building improvements, including roads, upgrades to town walls, tanneries for villages etc.
-Critical strikes (extra damage) for back attacks
-Weapon and Armor refinement (Viking Conquest feature, idea to port by oliver)
-Skirmish mode for ranged troops
-Mini factions with unique dialogue, troops available for hire and a couple of new quests. The new mini-factions are the Franks (now, they also have a castle, besides being an invasion force), the Rus and a Lithuanian tribe
-Reworked the entire weight system of items. In earlier versions of the mod, I assumed that TaleWorlds used pounds as a weight measure. But if it was the case, that meant that most of the heavy armour would pull its wearer to the ground, if he was able to sustain its weight, at all. Then, I assumed the weight was in kilograms(kg). A problem was that someone could move extremely fast in heavy armour, which is absurd. So, for this version, I am treating the weight as just a number, a statistic. All values have been bumped up, with the basic formula of "Divide armour value by 10 and raise the result to its square". For example, an armour with +30 value would weigh 9 units. The helmets and boots, I just divided by 10. The tests are good. Combat is slower and with the added mechanic of stamina, strategic placement and movement is necessary.
-Stamina and Fatigue system, credits to Idibil
-New music (a folder with a couple of optional goodies will be uploaded, including an ambient soundtrack)
-Upgraded weather system (heavily edited and extensively expanded by tocan)
-New items and re-textured/replaced existing ones. I am pretty confident that the current item list is very historical, while keeping the variety of different items
-Slings
-Visual difference between rusty items and the other modifier varieties
-Animals roaming around in towns and villages
