Mount&Blade Version 0.953 is Released!

[Admiral Nelson]

From here

Many thanks for your kind feedback on the past versions. We have been able to fix a number of bugs and improve the performance of the game. We hope that version 0.953 will be more stable and more fun to play. As usual, please let us know if there are any bugs so that we can try to fix them as soon as possible.

I'll post the download information for 0.953 here rather than starting a new thread.

Fixes in this version include:
- Crashes related to parties being removed solved.
- Character portraits in notes window fixed
- Bug fixed which resulted in strange behavior in spawning new troops in arenas and some other scenes
- Fixed incomplete shadows in towns
- Various balancing fixes.

Known problems:
- In Video options, Realistic Shadows on Plants has the wrong default value. This should be "Full".

Again many thanks for reporting these bugs.

I never know when to make a new thread or stick to the old one

Anyway, it seems there are some new castles and a 'test scene', which is obviously an omission. - And the usual small changes to balance.
Sadly I've already found various bugs

If you see a new version out don't hesitate to make a new thread (provided no one else has) following our current format. When I'm online I'll stick it and rep you.

You just had to tell me that, didn't you

Yeah, so have I. But look on the bright side: TW will have to release at least one more bugfix to this version!

[Empress Meg]

I'm not going to install this one. I've got a nice game going with my rebelling red people and want to see what exactly I'm supposed to do with them before I ruin it.

Does anyone know if the bug where you fail the Scouting quest for no reason is fixed?

No, that happened to me a few days ago with v.953

Me too. But I've also succeded in one of those, so it's kind of random :hmmm:

[ivan_the_terrible]

Its a real pain. On the bright side, it also terminates the Follow the Marshal quest, which I find incredibly tedious.


Is it just me, or is the campaign AI better in 0.95x?
I was besieging a castle, and one of my faction's lords came and stood beside me, scaring away enemy relief parties. When I was driven back and went away to replenish troops and food, and didnt come back for a while, the lord went away. I was thoroughly impressed. Maybe it was random, but it looked like real cooperation.
