[Witto]

Awww I see I wasn't the only one on vacations .
Well, will check back next month for an update. Great mod, like I've said many times before.
Cheers.

I can't start the game.

It CTDs before it gets to the the main game menu. I have disabled the SoI and Faces pack. Any thing that I might have overlooked? I haven't played CK2 for a while. I noticed the version number in vanilla CK2 was displaying 1.111. Is that right? Thanks.

edit

I have just noticed my checksum (MLYP) differs from the one on the FP. I guessing that's the problem - yah?

Nope, we just haven't updated it

 

[A Blood Red Fox]

Is there a general ETA on when the update might be? It's been a very difficult wait to be able to play again.

 

[andysonofbob]

Nope, we just haven't updated it

Nope as in the reason it ain't working is because 'we just haven't updated it yet'

or

Nope as in it doesn't matter about the checksum difference, 'we just haven't updated it yet'?

Sorry if that sounds facetious but I genuinely don't know.

Thanks!

I'm not sure about the checksum, but I do know the mod hasn't been updated beyond 1.103.

Which is why it probably isn't working?

Thanks!

Yeah, mods made for v1.103 of CK2 aren't compatible with v1.111 - if you want to play Elder Kings you'll need to either figure out how to roll back to v1.103 (not easily possible on Steam) or wait for Elder Kings to update.

For those of you who missed the song by Skalmold while playing Nords, I come bearing good news.

Napalm Records has given us permission to use the song again. And this time I request that permission be granted to the mod, to avoid this inconvenience in the future.

So, you will still get to enjoy the song now, once Korba puts it back in... .

Hazzah! Thank you so much!
:laugh:
Its a small thing but I love it every time that song came up and probably makes playing Nord a wonderful experience.

Eh. I mod out the music. Lower memory imprint, and I can use an external source. Its also much more reliable, because if I want to listen to As I Am, I don't have to type nextsong fifty three times to get to it.

It's nice to see a music company that cares more about getting stuff heard than milking people dry. Kudos to them

Can't you just turn the music off in settings?

Sound has a ~200 MB memory imprint. While just removing the music with a blank songs.txt won't completely deal with it, its a quick and easy way to make it run better. Just turning off the music would be pointless since my headphones aren't even plugged in.

Its also why I get annoyed when mods package the music into the main download; its extra file size, which means more chance for an http download to screw up, and I don't even use it.

Easier for me, don't need to manage multiple downloads

I know, which is why this is the first time I mentioned it even though I was following the mod since before it was released. I can still be annoyed at something even if I understand the reasoning behind it.

Hello again,

Is the core mod being worked on still? Is it likely to be updated to 1.111 MLYP any time soon?

Thanks!

According to a post by Korbah, it should be ready to release rather soon (post was on 28-08, claimed it should be ready within a week of posting). However, I make a point of ignoring any such statements unless they are purely about compatibility patches. Since some new features and history updates are included, I'd give it another week or two. Don't quote me on that though.

Whoops.

Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha.

You know what I meant.
