Gackt, that Floris mod. I've been trying to get it to work properly for days, but I keep running into three problems -

1. The game crashes upon entering a tournament.
2. The custom textures slowly disappear into black.
3. The skyboxes get replaced by random other textures. (Fixed by removing the new skyboxes.)

I think the second can be fixed by lowering the graphics a little to avoid running out of memory, but what's up with the first one? I haven't found a single fix for it anywhere, apart from removing the tournament changes altogether.

Try reinstalling? You might be missing the tournament specific stuff.

I just discovered extra invasion, its the darned funniest thing out there.

A couple of random questions about Warband, sorry if they been asked before.

1.Does were you get soldiers change after you join a faction, because I'm not even close to joining a faction and most of the villages near me are getting destroyed.
2.When can you join  a faction?
3.I captured a lord but the game wont let me ransom him,does anyone know how.

[Josephus]

Some of these might not apply depending on whether or not you're playing vanilla

1. In vanilla Warband, you need to recruit your soldiers from villages or taverns. No villages means that source is closed off.
2. In vanilla Warband, you can join a faction as a mercenary once you've gotten a little renown, or as a lord once you've kicked more.
3. Ransom offers comes at random times, though some lords in your own faction will buy a captured lord off you if you talk to them, and they're in the market for it.

[Rakonas]

To clarify #2, to join a faction as a mercenary you ask for tasks from any lord, while to join a faction as a lord you need significant renown or relations with the leader of that faction.
Also with #3, in addition to randomly being asked for ransom, if you ask for a task from a lord whose relative is captured by the enemy then they're probably willing to pay you more in order to trade the prisoners.

Is is worth the risk of traveling to Swadia to return the royal ransom?  Holding on to him has seen to make them hate me, and they have tried to attack me several times

[Rakonas]

You can't return the ransom directly, you either wait for a ransom offer or receive a task from a lord of one of swadia's enemies to capture one of swadia's lords (which you can then just complete instantly).

[Neonivek]

Right now I am trying to become the emporer but the game really tries hard NOT to tell you how to do it.

I have about a billion rights of rulership...

PoP3.5 should be out soonish...

Has anyone tried the napoleonic war dlc? My friend recommended it to me and says it adds various features in the multiplayer like crouching, explosives and music(?)

I would try it but it is multiplayer only and I am not very good at the multiplayer.

It does indeed add musicians for the new factions, Great Britain, France, Prussia, and I think one more faction.
There are constructible things you can place including powder boxes that explode a few seconds after you ignite it.
Usable cannons and such are on some new maps that it includes.  I think a new game mode, but I'm just getting all my knowledge of "Napoleonic Wars" from Youtube, so I'm not sure.
Also you could already crouch.  In all the M&B games.

Nobody, I repeat nobody gets truly good at Napoleonic wars dlc. I caved and brought it and was pleasantly surprised that it was a tad different from the mod it's based off, so its worth it.

[Sordid]

False. The ability to crouch was added in a recent patch specifically to enable the DLC to make use of that feature, but outside the DLC it's disabled by default.

[Svampapa]

I saw crouching in With Fire and Sword for the first time. I don't think vanilla WB has it.

But the Nappy DLC is a lot of fun, even if a full pop 200 slot server gets real wacky real fast. I bet it could be real awesome if you join a regiment and do sort of roleplay line battles.

Still, no multiplayer mod beats Vikingr in my opinion. Such a shame they never made a single player version, their sceneries are the most mood inducing of all the mods.
