Current progress: I haven't had time to test anything yet, but I believe the new companion dialogue and likes/dislikes and such should now be in place. I also changed the appearance of ransom brokers, modified some tournament entrants, opened up marriage options, and added advanced formations to the mod. I'm in the middle of editing the intro slightly so that it at least isn't referencing native locations, which shouldn't take long.

I also started building a new castle for Misty Lake, and I may or may not now understand how to revise tournament weapon loadouts. I'll test something later and see just how badly it breaks the game.

This is Touhou Origins, a mod for Mount and Blade: Warband. The original developer abandoned the project ages ago after releasing what was essentially a beta version. I recently decided to start polishing it up a little bit and adding some features. In my heavily biased opinion, this process has been going well despite my complete lack of experience at modding.

As it stands, the mod has several very obvious flaws, but it's also one of the more ambitious and imaginative Warband mods I've encountered. I've had a lot of fun with it; otherwise I wouldn't be putting so much effort into addressing its problems.

Here's a link to the mod and a "patch" to put in its directory. I'll most likely be uploading and updated version sometime this week.

Never ever auto-resolve a battle, no matter how many more troops you have. Even if you have 5000 troops and the enemy has 3. This is true for the base game and every single mod of it.

After fiddling around a bit, it appears I have successfully worked out how to revise tournament weapon sets the way I want. I can set how much each weapon type is favored by each kingdom, including ones that were just using a "default" setup previously, and introduce new weapon sets to tournaments. Just over-writing the default weapon sets would have been a lot easier, but I felt that approach would have been a bit ham-fisted. Right now, this is how I'm thinking of setting things up:

Hakurei Shrine: Tons of ranged weapons, with daggers and/or polearms as backup.

Netherworld: Traditional Japanese weapons. Real ones, not practice weapons.

Underworld: Lots of heavy blunt weapons, especially tetsubo.

Senkai: Heavy on staves and swords, some thrown weapons and crossbows.

For the moment, I don't have any particular plans in mind for modifying the others. The SDM feels like the most appropriate faction to have the typical default tournament sets, with everyone fighting on horseback with lances and swords.

It's an idea I'm willing to entertain, at least, depending on how people feel about it. I don't mind using lances, but the AI is awful at using them in an arena environment. It's always kind of sad when all the tournament contestants get stuck on a wall ten seconds in.

Don't get too big of an army until you have enough money to support it.
Don't get too attached to army units, they will die.
OPEN A BANK ACCOUNT WITH THE GUILD MASTERS. If you put money in there and let it multiply the game will eventually be impossible to lose.
Maids and Miko are good and cheap units that are easy to get. You'll want them to be a 4 or 5, 1s are fodder.
Calvary will eat you alive if you don't have your own calvary or upgraded units. The easiest calvary to get a bunch of is Maid Knights and Youkai Hunter, but you want an ok income before having lots of calvary.
DO NOT ENGAGE FACTION PATROLS UNTIL YOU HAVE A COMPETENT ARMY WITH GOOD RANGED UNITS AND CALVARY.
DO NOT ENGAGE LORDS UNLESS YOU CAN EAT ARMIES THAT ARE 80+ FOR LUNCH.
Mecha 2/3 are extremely good. Go to the towns near genbu ravine to recruit kappa 1's and upgrade them to mecha.
Myouren Cemetery has cheap salt, human settlement has cheap dye. Cart that around for easy early game cash.
Onmyoji spawn Jiangshi for free. Buy a couple and you can have free troops that are easy to upgrade regularly.
Don't bother doing anything in hell, it takes to long to go places in there and the Kasha 2/3 will eat your armies.
Buy land in Nexus of Boundaries to make dyeworks, you can get easy income from that.
You don't need to pay soldiers stationed at outposts. Put your ultra expensive calvary there.

For easy armor, get a follower and steal their head armor and body armor, the game will give them back a free set when you go into battle.
Specific units to watch out for:
Chaos Knights and Scarlet Knights, they eat other units alive. Don't engage Luna Knights or high ranking SDM lords unless you have very good calvary or a horde of mecha.
Mecha have extremely good gear and can engage really bad odds and win.
Moon Rabbits have nice guns and shoot far. They are also pretty easy to get from Eintei castles.
Kasha are horse archers from hell. Don't engage them if you don't have shields.
Youkai Hunters/Exterminators aren't as insane as Chaos Knights but they are pretty good.
Werewolves and Mermaids aren't as good as Mecha but are still pretty strong.
All archers and Gunners can ruin your day if placed correctly.

Use lots of cannon fodder soldiers at the start.
Blocks or lines of infantry usually defeat whatever haphazards charge the AI bandits throw at you.
Don't forget to backpedal while fighting and attack the very moment your block deflects the enemy's blow.
And then add brainybots to the game and watch as your ass gets kicked by trash mobs.
Some lord quests are a good source of revenue at the start, like the message quest and killing that guy who hides in a village.
Guildmaster delivery quests in towns are also profitable, with the exception of cattle delivery due to the annoying minigame.
If you manage to find a good trade route then trading will net you plenty of money at low risk.

The early game can be pretty rough, especially if you aren't all that experienced with Warband to begin with. If you aren't already, I would place a high priority on recruiting a companion who has high pathfinding. Pathfinding allows you to better choose your battles, and not get wrecked just because you accidentally wandered too close to some Luna Knights.

>>20895794
Chaos knights and mecha are pretty absurd, but I think you're underestimating daoshi a bit. They have decent swords, strong shields, and the best crossbows in the game. At minimum, I would rate them more highly than sohei, and in most cases I would rather use them than earth rabbits as well.

Is it normal for an outpost to spawn with units?

[Anonymous No.]

Whoops. Adding in one item set worked fine, but adding in several has resulted in some weirdness. Now tournament participants are all getting equipped with 2-4 random weapons, some of which aren't even mentioned in the "set items for tournament" script, and there are contestants trying to fight bare-handed for some reason despite being equipped with three longaxes.

I'll probably shelve this idea for the moment.

You just need to use your imagination a bit more! Gensokyo has obviously been reshaped by the war.

[Anonymous No.]

>>20893691
Some tips I've personally noticed.
-This one is just a suggestion, everyone may have different preferences, but I like using 1h swords with high range on hits. One that can be used as a 2-handed weapon as well are nice. I currently use a pretty fast 1H sword with 153 range and 50 damage on slash.
-I use a shield as well. Tengu shields are nice for the aesthetic. Mecha shields are probably better overall, but heavier and can obstruct some vision. The invisible ones jiangshi use are good, but they have low durability. I wouldnt really recommend putting points into shield either. Spend your level up points on other things.
-I use a bow. Sword of Hisou(Ranged) is pretty cheap, low reqs, but also the best bow you will find for a long time(or ever?). 28 damage, 99/98 speed. I use keystones for ammo which are +8 damage. You -can- use flying onibashira which are like +30 damage or something, but you get much less ammo-wise. Be sure to max out horse archery and the archery skill in general. My bow skill is sitting at around 300 right now, and I can get perfect accuracy on horses at full speed.
-This is the real important part. Have a melee and a ranged weapon of some kind, hence why I brought up my loadout. When doing sieges, you will probably want to take out all of the archers and such on walls that the AI soldiers ignore. You can minimize casualties on your side that way. Likewise, have a nice melee for both the fact ammo is limited, and for any close fights. Likewise, in the field, enemies with shields are much easier dealt with by ride-by sword swipes. I don't like crossbows or throwing items, so I cant really comment on those, but hopefully that helps with doing sieges.
-One last tip, if you are defending on a siege, you seem to have a pretty good advantage. I've found that I've been able to defend cities/castles from 400+ armies with <100 (good)troops. It's mostly because they are forced to come to you and you often have a height advantage.

I actually enjoy lances, if the map is conducive.
While SDM is thematically fitting, their maps are some of the worst for lancers. On the other hand. Tengu Settlement would be damn good with a little modification and Moriya Shrine is basically perfect. Maybe make them the only faction with lance tourneys.

I just race around on a rocket with a backpack full of blasters and just drop them when empty (they have a clip of 12) until I have one left before actually getting ammo to reload. With Horse Archery at only 5 I can reliably hit most targets with the margin of error mostly being a matter of leading the shot.

I don't mean the floaty ones, I mean the guys with guns and other random walking people. There's a bunch that are designated as cavalry that should clearly be infantry or archers.
>I'm not sure why the AI is so flighty. I messed around with the unit courage calculation script recently, but I haven't done enough playtesting to know how much of an impact those changes will have in practice.
Is there a way I can just turn routing off? It's really annoying since it's basically impossible to win tough battles now, since you just know your guys will run away instead. Can only take the easy fights which takes a lot of fun out of the game.

[Anonymous No.]

>>20910583
>There's a bunch that are designated as cavalry that should clearly be infantry or archers.
Oh, those, right. I actually hadn't noticed much strangeness there while playing, but that might just be the result of my preferred troop types. I might examine it at some point, but offhand I actually don't know much about how/where the game sets troop classes. They aren't defined in troops.py with the rest of the troops' information for some reason.

>It's really annoying since it's basically impossible to win tough battles now, since you just know your guys will run away instead.
I have never had this much trouble with my own troops' courage, and I frequently engage in battles where I suffer 90%+ casualties. I'll typically have some of my troops try to retreat 1-3 times or so over the course of a hundred days of game-time. You might have a serious morale problem or something, check your morale modifiers under Reports.

My tinkering with unit courage has mostly had the goal of making enemy faction patrols not completely panic after one person gets shot with a musket.

Maid 3 is an example of a unit that's designated as cavalry for no discernable reason (none of the other maids are).

Is there a good way to compare different units? There's so many and it's hard to tell which ones are good and which ones aren't. Also, I wish setting the deployment order was easier, since it fucks it up when you upgrade units. I've lost battles already by accidentally deploying only cavalry and then only archers as reinforcements.

Generally, foot melee units become weaker and less useful the more the game drags on as ranged weapons become more and more accurate and dangerous, alongside maps like >>20911055 negating them entirely.

At a glance, it doesn't look like I broke anything significant recently, so here's a new version of the mod.

https://mega.nz/#!6W4EHA4B!pKPWhftyPxBjvjJN3noXO6tvZVManbYtA2b72wkAeSI

Companions having dialogue and generally being revamped a bit is the major new addition. I also enabled advanced formations, rebalanced some things, fixed the appearance of various characters, expanded marriage options, and fixed some minor bugs.

A few notes on companion dialogue: a few of the replies are lengthy enough that the text gets pretty tiny, which I'll probably fix at some point. It was hard to get a feel for what effective character limit I was working with. There are also a few lines that might not flow very well, particularly the ones brought up if you ask a companion to tell you about their history again. This is because the game uses one particular line from their intro for part of that, and I didn't realize that until late in the process and didn't account for it. The Intel Mission lines are still the default Warband ones, because I didn't notice them until later on and didn't feel like messing with them. I'm pretty low on ideas there anyway: a lot of the companions aren't from Gensokyo, so I'm not too sure where exactly they would be getting intel from. I also never really send my companions on intel missions anyway, so it's not something I felt like putting much effort into.

I made it so that all the companions are considered to be "nobles," so you won't suffer any penalties if you make them into lords. I couldn't think of any reasonable way to make a distinction between noble and non-noble characters, and for the most part I think it best to not even try. I might adjust things later so that you lose some relation when promoting people who aren't native to Gensokyo to lordship.

I removed the ride skill from a bunch of infantry who had it, which may or may not help the game figure out that they are not cavalry, and tinkered with unit courage, which may or may not have a measurable impact on routing.


Next, I'm going to focus on scene creating/editing, and mess with various random side-projects for times when I get bored with that. A couple questions:

-Does anyone have any ideas regarding what to do with the pretenders? I have some thoughts on how to flesh out the Hakurei and SDM pretenders, but that still leaves the ones for the Underworld, Netherworld, Youkai Mountain, and Myouren Temple. I might see if I can just disable some of them without breaking anything.

-Do you have any thoughts on the idea of opening up the Underworld a bit? Thematically, I kind of like how it's set up and how remote it is, but making the trip to Chireiden and back can get obnoxious pretty quickly. It's also kind of silly that their strongest lords effectively have to march a distance equal to the length of the entire map just in order to reach their nearest neighbor, and caravans going to or from the three deep cities are basically doomed from the get-go.

>>20913350
Travelers can upgrade your "cosplay" items that make you resemble other characters. To do this, you need to have the items in question placed in the first two slots of your cosplay storage, and a "book R-18" to serve as payment, because travelers only accept payment in the form of lewd Reimu pictures. Your items will get an upgrade quality, which...probably does something. I haven't investigated that just yet, and the game does not make it at all clear.

The books occasionally drop after winning battles, so I probably wouldn't spend a ton of money on them.

There was also another part somewhere, I don't recall where exactly, in the final part of the siege (when you enter the castle). It was a big open space and my troops wouldn't really move.

Make the Underworld more like pic related. The problem isn't that the area is isolated, but that all the towns are mashed together at the bottom. If you had Former Capital near the top close to Onsen town, then Chireiden as a midway point, and the Nuclear Furnace at the bottom of the pit it would be much easier to traverse. You could make the area smaller as a whole too but that isn't too necessary.

Combine both >>20916564 and>>20916575
to make it a series of circles, with the only way in or out of each one through a major town, kind of like a giant nut that you have to crack the shell on

Though that would eventually lead to some funny stuff if say the SDM captured one ring, and the shrine captured the one outside that, and then they couldn't get out because they were at war.

>As for pretenders, wouldn't you need to put in effort with new models and lots of dialogue?

Whether or not new models are needed depends on the direction taken, but it would probably be necessary if they aren't going to be OCs or something. There are models for a few unused characters in the files, but I'm not sure why people like Rikako or Mugetsu would be trying to overthrow Satori (and have some support from her vassals.) Pretenders have much less dialogue than companions, so that part isn't a particularly big deal, at least.

My 3D modeling skills are definitely not up to the task of adding new stuff to the game, but even if they were I'm not sure there are any characters that would make sense for those roles. Right now, I'm leaning towards fleshing out the Hakurei and SDM pretenders, and seeing if I can just disable the rest, but I thought I would see if someone had some sort of brilliant idea I'd overlooked.

My 3D modeling skills are probably up to the task of some minor map editing, though. I'll try that out and see how it goes. I think a few minor changes could could make the Underworld about as accessible as the Netherworld, if not moreso.

I have found 3 just smashing faction patrols with my looting at 10.
I'm guessing it's due to the way the loot algorithm works.
Certain high rank faction units could possibly 'drop' doujinshi, but there'd be difficulty due to the obscene price of the items and likely short list of elites they drop from.
Loot's total value is based on the size of your defeated enemy and your loot skill, so killing a shitload of garbage units in one gowith high skill would drop a couple expensive modifiers on cheap equipment to balance out.
Likewise, very expensive items very rarely drop from small skirmishes due to them likely being more valuable than the total value of the loot pool alone.
TL;DR: get your loot skill really high and tackle (and actually beat, not rout) a huge number of elite enemies in one go.

Making some edits to the map was indeed pretty easy. Moving castles/towns/villages might be a little more annoying, but shouldn't prove unmanageable.

>>20916564
Having one-way exits is an interesting idea, but it's not feasible to implement. From what I understand, trying to do anything fancy with overland map features is extremely difficult because a lot of it is hard-coded.

>>20916665
I think I'll try to implement something along these lines. The Underworld being more open means they won't constantly get their asses kicked due to logistics issues, and the towns not all being in a blob both makes more sense and is more convenient.

The good news is that you're right next to two other towns. The bad news is that everything else is really far away, and there is a lot of scary shit around. Corpse Collectors have a high map speed and are very bad news for a starting character. Yurei are also fast, and can be tough to handle right off the bat. Onimusha are slower, but will absolutely annihilate you if you engage them.

So, just avoid all those things while in an enclosed space with low pathfinding, and everything will be fine. Maybe you'll get really lucky and have someone like Renko start in one of the three nearby taverns.

Also, any plans to remove/change some of the absolutely ridiculous maps? Examples would be Mayohiga which is near impossible for both sides to fight properly and one of the Tengu maps, I forget which, but you have to climb this insanely steep ladder just to get to the enemy. Think, a couple inches every second up a 7 story ladder. I think the map would be cool if replaced with a staircase instead.

Yeah how do they actually work? They're still hostile if you're a mercenary for their faction but I think they stop being hostile if you ever aid them in a battle, interestingly enough.

Nearly all lords should now be marriageable other than faction leaders. Previously, which characters were marriageable and which weren't was a bit unpredictable due to some oddities with the skin system.

Yes, and it is helpful when people bring up examples like this. I don't have all major map issues documented, and I would prefer not to have to load up every single one in the editor to look them over.

I switch around between projects a bit depending on what seems interesting to me at the time, but I'm currently putting together a new castle for Misty Lake.

>>20917124
It's a quest item. If you talk to Reimu in the Hakurei Shrine while you have it equipped, it will start a short quest line where you play as Marisa during some flashback sequences and witness the start of the war.

The quest-line is a bit buggy, so you should be careful with your save file before messing with it, and so far as I can tell the last quest is impossible to complete. It's worth playing around with once, though, because while playing as Marisa you can fly and use spellcards.

>>20918122
>>20918481
I haven't looked at them too closely yet, but the patrols all belong to their own separate factions. This is why defeating them doesn't harm relation with their "parent" faction, and why you can gain relation with them and render them friendly even while at war with their parent faction. They are set to be intensely hostile to everything not belonging to their parent faction. I'm not sure why that includes the player even while you're on that faction's side, but I've noticed that behavior as well.

You shouldn't be any slower than usual, but other parties are a bit faster on average than in Native.

Myouren Temple siege map has a few oddities. There is a ladder leading towards the defenders which the besieging troops never take, choosing a highly roundabout route instead. I didn't get to check if it's accessible.

A few more map problems I've encountered.

Untrodden Valley is nice in concept, but large groups of spawned attacking troops can get stuck at the spawnpoint. Likewise, there are a few areas on the way to the 'upper platform' where the player can get indefinitely stuck. Specifically in between the hexagonal rocks.

Magician's Manse is relatively okay, but attacking troops will get stuck when trying to go into the tower, and likewise, nothing will want to come out of it.

Nameless Hill, I'm not sure if it was the enemy type, but most defending troops won't even fight. Generally, you can go against an even amount of defenders or more and finish with zero casualties.

Other shit I hate:

Can't stop in the middle of looting.
Allies don't seem to be able to join you when you assault a castle? Even if they're sieging with me they don't.
Speaking about sieges, I've literally never seen a siege go on for more than a few days. Why even have the mechanic when no siege will ever last a full month?

Yeah, the game was never the most polished. Not to mention the bugs. It's always had a nice following from doing something no other game really does in this specific way though, along with being so moddable.

As for the lords, yeah, mostly the rulers. A lot of the rulers can one-shot you, but not as hard as the rulers and with the sheer amount of hp they have. They also seem to get some custom units? Reimu gets Oni-Mikos for instance. I've seen Living Gods among Youkai Mountain troops too.

Yeah it's a shame because I actually really like how the game works. I love it's focus on tactics and having all the distinct little lords running around that you can interact with.

There is this village map, I can't remember what its name was, but you and the bandits are spawned in two opposing sides of a massive lake with a sheer drop, meaning all units can't traverse it.

It would have been almost fine if we could then take potshots at each other, but there was also a big ass mountainside between us, meaning the only way I could even finish the damn quest was if I drop into the water and snipe the bandits one by one from below (but, in hindsight, even this was probably impossible, not only because I didn't have enough bullets at the time, but also because some of the bandits ended up hiding in the far back, where I can't shoot them)

That's probably bad news. Gekokujo used to have a bug where you could permanently lose companions that way.

You would have to edit the save. There is a good save game editor available, at least, if you want to put in the effort. You would need to edit the troop slots for those characters. In particular, slot_lord_reputation_type needs to be set somewhere in the 1-7 range.

I don't think it's wrong for Reimu or Marisa to be able to take down squads of youkai on their own (since that's kind of what they do in the actual games), but when we get a better grasp on modding mechanics, it'll probably be another way than giving them meatpoints. I was thinking making them (Alongside Sakuya, Sanae, and Youmu) actually fly in combat and reducing their base health to 145 HP to make them more fragile than youkai lords, but extremely mobile on the battlefield and capable of raining death and doom from the skies, using the aircraft code from the WWI mod as a base.

Of course, I'm still playing around with the mechanics of other mods to see how well they apply to this one, so no promisses yet.

That's an interesting idea. I actually wasn't aware that any Warband mods had functional aircraft, but I mostly stick to fantasy mods and Geokokujo. I briefly considered trying to make the broken castle sieges into "aerial assault" missions using the scripts for flying agents, but ultimately I'm just not that fond of how flying characters handle in that little questline with Marisa. It also seemed strange that everyone would just suddenly choose to fly when battling over two particular castles but nowhere else, and it would've been tricky to implement, supposing I could have actually pulled it off at all.

The mod is already a Frankenstein's Monster of code and assets ripped from countless sources, so stealing yet more things to add onto it feels appropriate.

In my opinion, they are the most powerful units in the game. They don't have horses or shields, but they have so much armor that it's still hard to gun them down before they get into melee and kill everything.

They will slowly lose relation with Kaguya, and eventually defect to another faction. Annoyingly, sometimes they will continue raiding villages and such in the meantime despite not having any soldiers.

>>20933852
Armor does help, but for the most part you can't really expect to just tank hits, especially not from things like high-end lords. No amount of armor or ironflesh is going to save you if you take a direct hit from someone like Flandre. A good shield or two can improve your survivability pretty dramatically, though, particularly against range attacks.

This is not to say that you shouldn't invest in armor and ironskin. Without it, even trash like bandits might one-shot you, and it gives you a chance to survive the occasional gun-shot or other heavy blow.

I have no idea what is going on with the AI sometimes. Almost every time I test the Misty Lake castle battle, one particular unit decides to run into a small depression, and then sit there blocking arrows until they die. The position is trivially easy to walk out of with no obstacles beyond a gentle slope, and it's always the same type of unit: a youkai hunter.

If there are hexagonal rocks there, I've noticed that there's a pathing issue between hexagonal rocks where whenever you step from one to the other, you can get stuck 'between' the rocks, and so can the AI.

Sometimes it loops the jumping animations and you can often get out by spaming the jump command - something the AI absolutely never does, which is why it gets stuck.

Was able to find this video of the chink version. Seems to be more or less the same thing except the troop trees are reworked, UI looks significantly less like a shitpost, and there are lots of new items added. Looks like it would be worth ripping some code and models out of at the very least. Here's a google translate of the dev's notes.
>1. Add multiplayer online mode (please try to use genuine online, piracy support 1.173 and above)
>2. Add the main story of the Tianren Group.
>3. Add several regular tasks (lords, villages, mayors, etc.)
>4. Added private caravan function (conversation with the mayor)
>5. A lot of scene modification and repair (not 100% complete)
>6. A slight change in balance (referring to the strengthening of the Boli camp)
>7. Almost complete dialogue orientalization (emphasis)
>8. Many other surprises.

>>20936084
Tried it out and so far it seems alright aside from clearly unfinished stuff like this. The biggest difference so far seems to be character creation. It actually works for one and you can choose to be a human, fairy, youkai or tengu (it doesn't seem to actually change anything however) and choose your background like spirited away or just native to Gensokyo. There's also a chapter option at the start but I don't think it does anything other than start your character at a higher level and with some companions already recruited. The report menu also shows when your next weekly budget report is which is useful. Other improvements are listed in the dev's notes but I haven't tried anything yet. I don't like the new font though.

Anyway while it's a clear improvement to the previous mod, I wouldn't recommend playing it right now especially since you have to join the Chinese botnet to download it. I hope update anon doesn't stop improving the previous mod because it's always possible that the original dev will abandon this one too.

It's a patch of bare earth that is at a very slightly lower elevation than nearby patches of bare earth. Making the AI mesh slightly more complex seems to have fixed whatever was going on there, though. I think the map is pretty much done at this point.

>>20936084
Huh, neat, I'll have to check that out later. I'm not going to abandon what I'm doing now in favor of something that may or may not end up being an improvement (or end up being completed,) though. At minimum I'm still going to fix what broken scenes I can and overhaul tournaments a bit.

I was not aware of that issue. It doesn't look like a particularly significant problem, though, and for the purposes of this mod I don't think the proposed solution would actually be beneficial. It's a good solution for mods where higher level units universally have better equipment, but there are a lot of cases where that isn't true in Touhou Origins. Mecha and Tsuchigumo aren't especially high level, but they are extremely effective units because they have great equipment. Lowly caravan guards wield excellent weapons, fairy bandits/mercenaries have fairly strong armor, gun samurai are extremely high level but carry mediocre guns, etc. That fix would actually make some of the more desirable equipment in the game more difficult to acquire.

>>20939663
It depends on the situation. Elite units often have high ride or athletics, so it's not all that uncommon for them to reach the front lines first and take a casualty before any lower-tier units do. Flawed though they are, the current loot mechanics at least allow for any particular unit type to potentially be at the top of the loot stack.

Open your browser type in your router IP for example mine would be 192.168.1.1 It will prompt you for you're router Username and Password. Example Username: Admin. Password: Password here.
Go to Port Forwarding/Triggering. Click add custom service as it shows on mine. Port number is 7240 set at UDP. Starting Port 7240: Ending port 7240. Got to CMD (you can search in your start bar or type in run-cmd- and follow instructions) type in ipconfig hit enter find your IP address it will be the .
Then put your IPV4 Ip Address In the Server IP address spot. Now for the last part. Click save, exit router, go on MB: Warband, go to Multiplayer, Host Game, Set it up as you wish and check the box at the top saying "ADD TO OFFICIAL GAME SERVERS LIST" Don't know if you have to uncheck Steam anti cheat, but I do. So there you're done!

It depends on how it has been disabled. In the case of the older Touhou mod, all you have to do is put the multiplayer button back within the screen boundaries by editing game_variables.txt. Look for initial_multiplyer_button_position.

Multiplayer mode is useful for scene editing and testing, so I enabled it in one of my copies of the module.

Some people expressed an interest in messing around with Touhou: Origins' multiplayer, so here are some files to help facilitate that. It should add the multiplayer button to the main menu, and make the class choices represent actual classes from the mod rather than the default Warband ones.

I didn't put spend a whole lot of time on this, so there are a few issues. First, Senkai and Eientai lack any unit classes, so don't use them. I also didn't spend any time worrying about balance or whether or not the additional items available to each class made any sense, so there are certain to be issues there. Netherworld troops will look bad with a female skin, and almost every other loadout will look bad with a male one. A few will probably look bad no matter what you do.

I could polish this up further later if there's much interest.

Do you mean siege maps, or like the interiors to castles? Not sure what the question is specifically but most of the dysfunctional scenes were reworked to at least be more playable. For example they remade the Moriya Arena.

I haven't looked into it, but I would guess that it's both possible and relatively simple to implement.

>>20945808
Sure, this is up to date as of right now:

Are you using any tools to compile dialog, or are you just editing that stuff by hand?

[Anonymous No.]

My IP range remains blocked from making threads, so someone else will have to start a new one if they want to continue the discussion sometime after this one dies.

>>20946583
Editing it by hand. I got to play a fun game of "find the missing parenthesis somewhere in the entire giant block of companion dialogue" at one point.

It's 10% every month.
That's actually only as half as effective an investment as a velvet shop making ~500 a week, especially the Netherworld one giving you >1000.

>10,000 into workshop
>500 a week return
>20 weeks to pay off and profit

>10,000 into bank
>1000 a month return (250 a week)
>can be withdrawn and spent at any time right up to bank day

Ultimately: keep all your spare cash in the bank (in thousands at a time or decimals start getting fucky) and try to buy up every workshop possible first before leaving the profits in the bank.

assuming it's just a fight and not a cutscene trigger issue, couldn't you just cheat?

Update for Touhou Tinder. I literally went through and fixed all of the troop names, weapon names, added town names, faction names, parties, etc. Took like 10 hours or something, even just mostly using the names from OPs mod. But as a result of it, it somehow unbroke the broken questlines that you can access in the New Game menu. In the New Game menu you have two continue options, the top one lets you choose like 3 starting quests and the bottom one just has you start the game normally. Still haven't fixed any of quest character names and stuff like that but the quests seem to work regardless.

No, it's 10% every _week_.

It may have been intended as every month, but it's not. It triggers every week and this is the reason why it's overpowered.

I determined that Flandre is unkillable, so presumably the intended way to clear the mission is to just survive all of Flandre's spellcards. Unfortunately, those spellcard attacks pierce through walls, hit hard enough to one-shot Marisa, cover practically the entire map, and bring my framerate down to a crawl. I could probably have made myself invincible with cheatengine or something, but by that point I was just tired of messing with it.

I want to do terrible things to Remi.

Like swearing an oath to her, only to befriend all of her vassals, and then bringing them along with me when I turn coat and join her enemies!

Yeah. It gives +80 to all armor but weighs a lot which doesn't really matter I guess.

I more of meant as my playthrough went along because I just started and am basically blind, but for starters the clock tower arena is goofed and someone can spawn outside the walls, the scarlet devil mansion start has looters spawn in places the AI can't reach, plus the balls of light there tank framerate if you get near them.

Huh. Since its power armor, maybe it should get an effect that increases the wearer's strength, a-la Fallout 3/NV?

She's helping Yuyuko conquer Gensokyo. She specializes in sending endless waves of poorly-equipped troops at her enemies.

Consider it separation of gameplay and story, or some other stupid explanation like it being 55d chess.

Coding a teleporting lord would be quite an undertaking. The best thing I could think of to do with her is to make her the master of logistics: she can field and maintain a huge army, her army moves quickly despite its size, she can replenish casualties quickly, she breaches castle defenses quickly, etc. She's not really one of the tougher lords to deal with for the player (though her personal combat abilities are very high,) but due to the way autobattle calculations are done she'll kick the crap out of most other lords.

[Anonymous No.]

>>20949089
she's a vassal of Yuyuko-sama, the lord of Netherworld faction.
I think she'd be better as a faction claimant though.

[Anonymous No.]

>>20949878
I not only second that idea but also think she should be the claimant for the hakurei shrine as well, just explain it as gaps and master plan shenanigans.

[Anonymous No.]

>>20950013
I don’t think you can make claimants work that way, besides, she isn’t a claimant to the shrine, she just wants control over it.

[Anonymous No.]

>>20950023
no like literally just stick a second Yukari character in, yes if you decide to put both in power both can fight each other, it's gaps she doesn't have to explain shit.

[Anonymous No.]

>>20950048
Why not make everyone a Yukari and rename it to Touhou & Blade: Gapband

[Anonymous No.]

>>20950013
the problem is that ran & chen would have to be removed from netherworld faction as well, as it would make no sense for them to serve under yuyu
also mima should be the hakurei shrine claimant
and mokou for eientei
flandre for SDM
seiga for taoists
suwako for youkai mountain
no idea about myouren temple though. guess any makai pc-98 character can fill this gap

[Anonymous No.]

>>20950134
they can already join a different faction than the one yukari is in so you can just say they're currently acting independently.

I finished restructuring the overland map a bit. I liked one person's suggestion that the Netherworld have more territory on the other side of the river, so I went with that. I also tried to make the Netherworld section of the map a little more interesting in general, by adding in some terrain and positioning their holdings differently. It's hard to say how much it will impact the game, but I like how it looks, at least.

Overall, both the Underworld and Netherworld should be more accessible, in no small part because their cities are staggered out more rather than clustered in the furthest reaches of their territory. Former Hell and Hakugyokurou remain remain pretty remote, though Former Hell at least is still a bit easier to reach than it was before.
