Crossbow n Bolts Market Bug Thread - TLD Overhaul mod for Mount & Blade: Warband

Dwarf towns don't sell crossbow and bolts.

Even if u start as a scout, u don't get bolts.

So I am a dwarf who neither can ride, nor can get a crossbow.

The merchant bug is known and will be solved with the next patch. And Dwarves are not really supposed to ride but there should be a pony around somewhere ^^

Yes, Thanks. Second thing Area behind Woodsman village and woodelf camp near dol guldur us not accessible to player. But many orc straggler parties patrol that area. Is it intentional design? or some map error?

(The game is great, M enjoying it a lot.)

Hm, can you make a screenshot of the area which you refer to? I am not sure if I got the correct one in mind.

This is the area I am talking about. Where player can not go. Area between Forest Road and back of Woodelf camp. We can go upto the clearing but not in the forest there. Clicking on any party in there don't work either. I stumbled there when I had to kill 33 tribal orcs, and only remaining orc parties(straggler and tribal) were in there. Whole map was empty of them as I killed them. I failed the quest (10 more orcs needed) since no tribal orcs were out there, For 5 days.

Hm, shouldn't happen normally. You should still be able to at least teleport yourself to those places to get them. Will think about that problem. The quest is coming from the Woodland Realm Elves?

No, It was a Gondor guildmaster quest. I came here in search of orcs as there were very few. This was before war starts.

Now I am level 20, I am frequently (continually) facing the text log bug. War is on. Even if I keep casualties report off, still text log disappears after one battle. Reloading game and Restatrting whole warband doesn't helps either. I have to reinstall the mod again n again.

Map messages are also go off. They appear in notes, but not on screen.

Is there any way to reset it to normal? ( Today after half n hour text reappeared on screen. I think disabling the troop identifier helped)(in TLD options)

( Good side is the bugs are small issues, and main Game is working Nicely so far. Thanks to all team TLD.)

Are you playing on Windows or some other OS? And are you playing on the latest version of the game? Haven't read about such bug yet, the others haven't had this.

I am playing on windows 10 only. The text log bug was very common one..Its gone now with troop identifiers off( which is useful only fighting against human armies of evil)

So now just think on that inaccesible area bug. Never needed to go back there again anyway.

Just laat thing The New Game AI Formations work finely. Can u add "avoid melee" option there? Its Necessary for horse archers in open ground battle.

There is an extra Horse Archer AI around iirc. Be aware that we adapt this directly from TLD, so there is not really something that we can edit at that :/

Hello again, We have defeated Moria faction, but I still have an active quest of "kill 16 moria veteran swordsman". I have killed 13, but now there are no more moria parties on map. Another quest of hunting 10 moria scouts, Automatically succeeded when We defeated Moria.

So is there any way to finish this quest now? killing moria veteran swordsmen? (I am playing as a Lotharien Commander) (And funny thing I have two active quests from Lady Gathriel. )

Well, it should not have been possible to get two active quests from the same person, so that's something to look into

For the active quests. One might have been connected automatically while it has been forgotten at the other one. By chance it could also be the oath quest at which you promised to take revenge. That one is always losely connected with the other ones. In that case you can't fullfill it anymore :/

About Trade Screen: The font in the middle (you have to pay....Resp. pts.) is too small, Unreadble. I am playing with Resolution 1280x 720.

How can I increase it?

Hm, that would require a bit testing at your side. If you look up the txt-file game_variables.txt you find there the lines with inv_t_total_cost_ which should affect that. Go for the ones with size of x and y and try around with them.

Thanks, after experimenting for 2-3 hours with that text file(game_variables), I finally settled for following values:

inv_t_total_cost_position_x = 0.37
inv_t_total_cost_position_y = 0.293
inv_t_total_cost_size_x = 0.25
inv_t_total_cost_size_y = 0.022
inv_t_total_cost_text_size_x = 0.025
inv_t_total_cost_text_size_y = 0.025

Changing just text size doesn't work. It only works for "No Cost". Except line 2(position_y) I changed all variables many times, reloaded warband every time. Position_x helps to shift start of new larger text. And position, size &text_size all three together give following result: (white text in center of image)

I would move it down a bit to look better.

Will make a comparision later with how it currently is and perhaps adapt it for the next patch.

About Horse Archer AI: Especially Rohan horse archers.

I am using New Form AI (since old AI goes haywire during hold position command). In this I have renamed 4th class as Cav. Archer. Now the horse archer still hold a bow but in all battles (open ground) they charge their horse straight into enemy line or horde, not around them, even if whole ground is open around. I have observed this especially for Rohan horse archers. So they charge holding a bow n arrow in enemy crowd and still keep their arrow pulled. They should not charge in.

Is creating 4th new class is bothering the AI? or something else. Cav Archers should maintain distance until they are out of arrows, otherwise they get killed.

The Formations AI are complex and hard to edit. Creating a new class can already have unwanted consequences, yes. Not a lot we can do at this here :/

How to add a desired common item to trade screen of a town? for e.g. I never seen Elven Warsword used by lothlorien swordsman, for sell in any of their towns ever. So is there any way to add it to their trade screen? or is it similar to crossbow n bolt trade problem?

Edited by: Nilman

We might have just missed to set a flag for it. Not sure if that got fixed with the next patch which is on the way, can't edit something there anymore since translation files are getting added and it's on the way to get uploaded. If it is still not available then, just leave a note at the Lothlorien board ^^
