 I, for one, am overwhelmed. The possibilities that could come from it is just... fantastic. And if the devs can make it modable, think what can come from THAT. Massive MaG-style battles perhaps?

 Good luck, 14thNYSM. Let me know when your next battle is, I'd like to volunteer for it, if I have the time available to. I'd expect it to be smashing.

North & South: First Manassas / Unofficial Community Banner Pack; for N&S!

« on: November 12, 2012, 12:51:32 am »

That's right!
The UNOFFICIAL Community Banner Pack is here; for N&S!
Each new version should come out every week, up to two weeks maximum.
This pack works just the same way as it did for NW, only it will be updated this time!  :lol:
Note that we are all still waiting to see if the devs are going to be updating the game version to 1.006 (NW), so for the time being it does not matter whether or not you flip your picture. I do require everyone to tell me if they flip theirs or not, otherwise your banner will remain flipped (or unflipped). Also note that a mirror will be added later in.

Download:
v1.1
There are some glitchy looking banners in this release, but they aren't very screwed up in-game. Most of the problems at the moment involve the original banners, which shouldn't be a problem for the people who actually use this pack for a reason. I'll be sure to start the pack from scratch for the next release, now that I got all of the complicated stuff out of the way.

Installation Instructions:

Spoiler

1. Back-up your banner_a.dds and banner_b.dds files into another folder. These files will be found in the location shown below, unless you have Steam installed in something other than C:, or if you did not install from Steam. If you did not install from Steam, it should be in wherever you installed Warband.
  C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\mountblade warband\Modules\North and South v0.3\Textures

2. Extract the .rar into the file shown above.
3. Test it out and enjoy!

Read this if you're interested in having your banner here:

Spoiler

Obviously, regiments that have their banner ready to be imported will be put in to whatever grid point they desire, as long as it is not already taken. Regiments that do not have their banner made can ask for me to do it for them, if they want to hear a big fat NO. I repeat, I will not be doing the work for regiments that are ill-prepared. Keep in mind, banners should be 147x147 pixels.
I am also fine with reserving in-game, regiment-specific flags for regiments on request, but they must be active in at least 1 event per week.

North & South: First Manassas / Civil War Wednesday!

« on: November 12, 2012, 12:46:56 am »

The Excelsior Brigade Presents:
An NA PUBLIC Line Battle Event!

I hope everyone understands how this works. If not, I will explain, here:

Spoiler

A public line battle is when a regular line battle is organized, but allows people that are not in regiments to show up and participate. The doors will open for public players, and regimental players, to join the TS server. Soon afterwards, a very quick, 15-30 minute training session will begin. This teaches everything the public players will need to know to participate; nothing fancy, just the basics. Then, the even will start. Regiments from both sides will have groups of public players "issued" out among them to make it fair.

[close]

Schedule:
Wednesdays every week
Sign-ups: All day until 7:30pm EST (-5 GMT)
Training: 7:30pm EST to 8:00pm EST
Regiment set-up: 8:00pm EST to 8:05pm EST
Pubbers join regiments they're assigned to: 8:05pm EST to 8:10pm EST
Line Battle: 8:10pm EST to ~9:30pm

Pubbers' Sign-ups:
