Increase party size through files

[Sirota]

How do you increase party size by changing variables in the mod or original game folders? I noticed how the 5 Kingdoms mod has a max party size of 1,200 from start and wanted to implement this into other mods I'm playing. Thanks a lot!!

It's done with the ms, so you would need to have the mod's source code.

You can download the battle size changer from here. It works with almost every mod.

I'm looking to change the party size, not how many units appear on the battlefield!

Ah, my bad. But in that case, all you need to do is make some changes to the scripts.txt file in your Mount&Blade folder. Just open the scripts.txt file and find the following line by going to the edit menu:

party_get_ideal_size -1

Now, the next few lines should look like the following in the original scripts.txt file:

25 21 1 1224979098644774912 2133 2 1224979098644774913 30 4 0 541 3 1224979098644774912 0 13 1652 3 1224979098644774914 1224979098644774912 0 2204 2 1224979098644774915 1224979098644774912 2133 2 1224979098644774913 10 2170 3 1224979098644774916 1369094286720630785 1224979098644774914 2172 3 1224979098644774917 1224979098644774914 3 2107 2 1224979098644774916 5 2105 2 1224979098644774913 1224979098644774916 2105 2 1224979098644774913 1224979098644774917 520 3 1224979098644774918 1224979098644774914 7 2123 3 1224979098644774919 1224979098644774918 25 2105 2 1224979098644774913 1224979098644774919 4 0 542 3 1224979098644774915 10 1224979098644774914 2105 2 1224979098644774913 100 3 0 3 0 2171 2 1224979098644774920 360287970189639680 2120 3 1224979098644774921 90 1224979098644774920 2107 2 1224979098644774913 1224979098644774921 2108 2

Notice the numbers in bold. These are the values that matter in the calculation of your party size.

30 -> It is the base party size. You can change it to whatever minimum party size you want for the players. This is how some mods have ridiculous party size limit in the beginning.

5 -> This value refers to the increase in party size per leadership point.

25 -> This is the amount of renown required to gain one extra party size unit.

100 -> This is the base party size for all the kings in your game.

Once you've edited the values, save the text file.

Yeah, but that won't change the enemy lords party sizes. Or bandits, or recruitment amounts, and the like. Best way to do it is to ask for the mod maker to do it.

Text changes work, but not nearly as well.

Thanks a lot! This is what I was looking for! Thanks!

You can find that and many other tweaks in Mage lords list. We have it linked in the mods forum.

Moved.
