Things to be aware of before downloading the mod:

  • Saved games from previous versions will NOT work with this version.
  • One lingering bug I have not been able to track down is that all of the village walkers seem to have disappeared, but the town walkers have not. I am not sure of the cause yet, but I will release a patch as soon as I figure it out.
  • The Salt Mine has been moved to the empty plateau on the shore near the Empire Of The Sands/Velorian/Morte border. The Salt Mine now has an underground scene with a randomly occuring bandit ambush, but has no other purpose....YET.
  • This version is much larger due to a significant increase in the number of textures. Some of these are not yet in use, but will be in the next version. Others I will remove once I've decided I won't be using them.
  • The new Pirate town, Seahaven, is hidden from view until you've learned its location. To find out where it is, talk to town walkers and ask about rumors. Eventually one will give you a clue to its general whereabouts. Then, it will remain hidden until you've sailed close to it. Once it appears, it will remain on the map permanently.
  • Included in the Main archive are two text files, HL122-Readme.txt and HL122-Guide.txt. The Guide answers many commonly asked questions about the mod, and the Readme provides info such as features of the mod, a changelog, and credits.

Below are instructions on downloading and installing the new version. I will be creating a FAQ/Guide for the new version soon, but in the meantime I will be more than happy to answer questions about the new version. If you have a slow internet connection, it is recommended you download and install the mod following the steps below. However, if you have a fast connection or simply prefer to download it in one giant file, there is a single-file download available here (http://www.filefront.com/14396399/The-Horde-Lands-v1.22.rar/). Just extract it to the modules folder, and you should be good to go. Otherwise, follow the steps below:

Step 1:
Create a new directory for the mod in your Mount & Blade mods folder. Name it whatever you want, but it should look something like this:
C:\Program Files\Mount&Blade\Modules\The Horde Lands v1.22\
Once you've created that folder, download the following archive and extract it to the folder you just created.
HL122-Main.rar

Step 2:
In the folder created above (which will be referred to as the main folder from here on out), create a new folder called Languages. It should look like this:
C:\Program Files\Mount&Blade\Modules\The Horde Lands v1.22\Languages\
You won't need to put anything in this folder, but the folder should be there to avoid any potential problems with the game looking for it.

Step 3:
In the main folder, create a new folder called Music. It should look like this:
C:\Program Files\Mount&Blade\Modules\The Horde Lands v1.22\Music\
Then download the following archive and extract all of the MP3s into the Music folder (there might be some text files in the archive related to installing the music to other mods, but you can ignore those...only extract the MP3s):
HordeLandsMusic.rar

Step 4:
In the main folder, create a new folder called Resource. It should look like this:
C:\Program Files\Mount&Blade\Modules\The Horde Lands v1.22\Resource\
Then download the following archive and extract all of the files into the Resource folder:
HL122-Resource.rar

Step 5:
In the main folder, create a new folder called SceneObj. It should look like this:
C:\Program Files\Mount&Blade\Modules\The Horde Lands v1.22\SceneObj\
Then download the following archive and extract all of the files into the SceneObj folder:
HL122-SceneObj.rar

Step 6:
In the main folder, create a new folder called Sounds. It should look like this:
C:\Program Files\Mount&Blade\Modules\The Horde Lands v1.22\Sounds\
Then download the following archive and extract all of the files into the Sounds folder:
HL122-Sounds.rar

Step 7:
OK, this is the big one! :sparta:
In the main folder, create a new folder called Textures. It should look like this:
C:\Program Files\Mount&Blade\Modules\The Horde Lands v1.22\Textures\
Then download ALL of the following archives and extract all of the files in each archive into the Textures folder:
HL122-Textures1.rar
HL122-Textures2.rar
HL122-Textures3.rar
HL122-Textures4.rar
HL122-Textures5.rar
HL122-Textures6.rar
HL122-Textures7.rar
HL122-Textures8.rar
HL122-Textures9.rar
HL122-Textures10.rar
HL122-Textures11.rar
HL122-Textures12.rar
HL122-Textures13.rar
HL122-Textures14.rar
HL122-Textures15.rar
HL122-Textures16.rar
HL122-Textures17.rar
HL122-Textures18.rar
HL122-Textures19.rar
HL122-Textures20.rar
HL122-Textures21.rar
HL122-Textures22.rar
HL122-Textures23.rar
HL122-Textures24.rar
HL122-Textures25.rar
HL122-Textures26.rar
HL122-Textures27.rar
HL122-Textures28.rar
HL122-Textures29.rar

Step 8 (optional, but recommended):
With this version, I am including the mod's module system files. In addition to letting you make your own changes to the mod using the module system, this will allow me to post changes and bug fixes to the mod in the forums without the need to upload a new version or patch (unless the changes involve textures, scene changes, or new music/sounds). If you download this, make sure you edit module_info.py to point to the correct directory where you installed the mod.
HL122-ModuleSystem.rar

And that should be it!! If you have any problems installing or playing the mod, please let me know as specifically as possible what the problem is and I will try to help you fix it. I fully expect there to be issues with the new version, but hopefully there won't be.

I was downloading the textures when i noticed that textures 21-29 are repeats of textures 11-19. Im assuming that its a mistake and just wanted to point it out.

Not to sound ungrateful, but why is is necessary to post 29 texture files that are only a couple of megs each? The link for 28 is not downloading (filefront's issue I think) and it is extremely frustrating to have 28/29 files but not the last one.

I think Keedo has some kinda connection issue. It'll probably be out as a single DL once someone else gets round to it.

Yes, I am on a wireless connection that doesn't like it when I transfer files. Downloading is usually more successful, but for that I have a D/L manager in case I am disconnected. When it comes to uploading though, I can't usually upload files larger than 10 mb without getting disconnected before the file finishes uploading. A couple of people on Taleworlds have posted links to a single-file download of the mod. I'll post those links here once I've confirmed that they download and install correctly.

I'll wait until there is a single file to download, or make a single one myself.
