Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

The Old Realms - Core (Season of Doom)
Game Stuck At Initial Load Screen
I have subscribed to all three Steam Workshop modules as well as harmony and put them in the correct load order but my game won't get past the initial load screen.

I think I read somewhere that you need a specific version of Harmony, not the Steam workshop version, what version is this?

You need version 2.2.2.162 from nexus.

But keep in mind the long loading time when first starting the mod is normal.

Thank you for getting back to me so fast.

I've now Installed the recommended version of Harmony and I am still stuck at the load screen for 10+ minutes. The spinning icon in the bottom right stops after the first 10 seconds.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

The other person did not have any crash.

Make sure you are opted into the 1.2.0 beta and have the correct load order.

Thank you for the assistance.

I didn't experience a crash, it's just a very long loading screen.

This isn't surprising considering how large and extensive the mod is.

There's always the shader loadtime workaround listed in discussions, but take care to read carefully and follow the steps exactly as described.

So i should use the harmony from nexus? because ive downloaded and used all the correct steps from the workshop and loaded up the game on the first screen and ive been waiting for an 2 hours.

You do indeed need the 2.2.2.162 version of harmony from nexus, this doesnt change the shader load time though.

Read my message above.

Well we managed to get the mod working again which wasnt that big of a deal ( TW changed some files to other locations but our mod needs those aswell so they're looking at where they used to be resulting in a crash xD ). The bigger issue was the new shader bulk compilation they gave us, which doesnt seem to like wraiths. So for now we cant use this feature unfortunately as it would save people the shader cache loadtimes.

We're working on it with help from TW.

And thank you :)
