Mods fail on banner creation

[KiraNotima]

No matter how many or how few mods I use, even if its the same list and order as a youtube my game crashes upon creating my banner following the tutorial. Does anyone have any solutions to this?

At this point, I'd recommend doing a full clean installation. There are steps in the Tech Support section on what to do.

Start up a fully vanilla game and make sure you an get past that point. If you can, good so far.

Install your mods - One. At. A. Time. Activate it, load up the game and try again. If nothing crashes, try playing a bit using whatever function the mod affects.

Then do this again with each mod. Once you run into crashes, you've found a problem.

With all mods, make sure they are compatible with the game version you are running.

This is merely a suggestion.

Uninstal Bannerlord COMPLETELY.

Research how to do a CLEAN install and do it.

Then re-install Bannerlord.

Then add the mods you think you can't live without.

As far as I can see, Bannerlord is not really finished and has several serious flaws deep in the guts of the game's program that cause, for some people, persistent crashes even when they're playing unmodded versions.

Rooting out these flaws has only been moderately successful so far, though things have improved lately despite TW's byzantine bug reporting requirements and most players preferring to vent rather than actually help TW figure out what is really going wrong .

But the upshot is that there is a constant need for deep tinkering with the guts of the basic program, and this will tend to make existing mods unusable if they depend on any part of the program that's being tinkered with. From a modder's point of view, keeping a mod in working order is likely to become a Sisyphean task that will have to be repeated every five or six weeks when the next attempt to eliminate crashes and memory leaks wreaks havoc with your previous work.

That's probably why your mods don't work, and aren't likely keep working for any extended period of time in the near future.

I don't have any special insight into what going on inside TW (and don't want any), but my guess is that the game won't really be mod-ready until after another major update on the scale of the one we just had. In other words, we're probably talking about fall of 2024. In the interim, you'd probably be better off if you learned to enjoy the plain vanilla version. Just be aware that when you've put in five or six hundred hours on a single playthrough, if you're unlucky and have the same kind of system that I had on my old computer, you'll start experiencing memory leaks and crashes after you play for more than an hour or two at a sitting.
