Other M&B1 and M&BII Modders

And all the M&BII players!

【Solution to the problem】

[The game or mod is not launching]

1. Make sure your M&BII version is matching MOD’s version.

2. Make sure you only turn on these MODs:
– Native
– SandBox Core
– Sandbox
– StoryMode
– CustomBattle
– TheLandOfSika

If you successfully enter, it indicates that other MODs used have conflicts.

3. If this without effect, then:

Try to Verify integrity of game files.

4.
For players who can’t get in game anyway, even reinstalling (Delete then Install can’t solve problems):
Normally I would ask if you have [ever] installed other mods? Some mods will overwrite your MB2 native files. Unfortunately, simply uninstalling MB2 will not clean up these tainted files.
If this is the case, you need to open the MB2 folder first. Then uninstall MB2. After waiting, look in the MB2 folder. If there are the following folders in it, it means that there are files that should not exist in it:

bin
module native
Module Sandbox
Module Sandbox Core
Module Sandbox
data
GUI
icon
music

You need to delete them manually to clear MB2. Then download and install MB2 again, and you should be able to play Mods such as The Land of Sika normally.

[Freeze]
[Entering the battlefield – Freeze]
[When creating character or selecting culture – Freeze]
[The screen does not change]
[Character Transparency]

>In the current version of M&B2 , when using MOD with new models or new scenes, Shader files need to be generated. This process is very slow and may take up to 10 minutes. (well, some MOD like The Old Realm even need 60-120 minutes…)
At this point, the game will show a "feigned death" (freeze) state, please continue to wait.
Under normal circumstances, when the required Sahder file is successfully generated by M&B 2, the file is saved on the computer, and then it is no longer necessary to generate it again. So only the first time it takes a long time to wait.

>If you open the task manager to check M&B 2 at this time, the CPU will maintain a high occupancy rate.
If you open this folder at this time: C:ProgramDataMount and Blade II BannerlordShadersCoreShadersD3D11; you may see new sacx format files appearing in it one after another, which are being generated by M&B 2 Shader file.
In this way, you can be sure that Sika MOD has not crashed, and that the Shader file is actually being generated by M&B 2.

>If your character is transparent, you can delete these files, and then open the game again to regenerate them.

>Attention! When M&B 2 shader files are loading, you cannot click any buttons, such as "Finish" in the inventory, "X" in the upper right corner of the encyclopedia, etc. If you click the button to switch the UI interface, it may cause crash.

>The process of generating the Shader file is a setting at the engine level of M&B 2. It cannot be cancelled or bypassed. All MODs with newly added models and scenes will have this generation process.

>So you need to wait patiently for the Shader file to be generated, then you can play the game normally.

>How to confirm that my Shader is generated?
If the Shader is not generated, the character on your screen will be transparent or invisible. Try not to operate it at this time, it is easy to crash.

>The sign that the Shader is generated is the complete display of the character.
If the character is transparent or invisible, the Shader is in the process of being generated.
