Greetings warriors of Calradia!

Today, we are moving the current beta branch to our main Steam branch. Below you will find the original changes included in the beta branch, our previous hotfix to the beta branch as well as some additional changes that we have done since.

This will make it so that the public and beta branches are equal. We will likely update the beta branch in the near future.


Versions
Native: e1.1.0
SandboxCore: e1.1.0
Sandbox: e1.1.0
Storymode: e1.1.0
CustomBattle: e1.1.0

Crashes

• Fixed a rare crash at the beginning of a battle.
  
• Fixed a rare crash that occurred when AI tries to find the missile range of a melee weapon.

Crashes

• Fixed a crash that occurred when the player successfully defected a lord through barter.
  
• Fixed a crash that happens when the player character was walking on the campaign map after creating their own kingdom.
  
• Fixed a crash caused by villager parties that don't have healthy troops.
  
• Fixed a crash that occurs on the campaign map due to a problem with tournament renown gain.
  
• Fixed a rare crash with AI thinking behavior in the “Need access to village commons” quest.
  
• Fixed a rare crash that occurred due to log entries when a player battle ended.
  
• Fixed a crash that occurred when attacking caravans without a leader.
  
• Fixed a crash that occurred when a clan leader died and the selected heir was a lord that had recently been released or escaped from captivity.

Save & Load

• Prevented the main storyline epilogue pop-up from reappearing every time the game was loaded.
  
• Fixed a save system backwards compatibility problem with saving primitive data types.
  
• Game now loads skill levels correctly from save games created with versions prior to 1.1.0

Campaign Map

• Added a middle layer for nameplate visibility on the campaign map. We now have a stage where players can see both towns names and castle names.

Battles and Sieges

• If a player’s fortification is besieged, they are warned by a text that appears in the top center of their screen. (Beforehand it only happened when the assault was already underway. Now we have 2 warnings - one when the siege begins and one when the assault starts.)

Clan and Party

• If a player’s clan party is attacked, they are now informed with a center top notification.
  
• The recruiting frequency of lords who are in a good financial situation was increased. They will now try to fill their party limits more frequently.
  
• Fixed a bug that caused the consumption of more than 1 horse when we upgraded a troop to a mounted soldier while having several types of horses in our inventory.

Kingdoms and Diplomacy

• Executions now also cause negative relations with honorable lords (if the executed is honorable too) and negative relations with friends of the executed. Additionally, we added further notifications for these consequences.
  
• Mercenary minor factions no longer join kingdoms they are at war with.
  
• Players can now fire mercenary factions they hired previously via dialogue. Players are asked to pay an appropriate wage per remaining influence. (Normally, we convert 20% of their earned influence to wage per day.) If the player rejects payment, they lose relations with the mercenary clan leader and the contract is cancelled.
  
• Player’s mercenary payment per influence was stable after they entered a kingdom. Now it is refreshed every 30 days.
  
• In some cases after a kingdom had been eliminated, the lords continued to spawn in a map location that is not reachable (near Rhesos Castle). They now spawn at a random settlement gate of their culture.

Economy and Trade

• Caravans are now seen as more valuable targets by bandits and minor factions, which means that they will be attacked more. This will increase the number of battles that involve caravans. Previously, caravans were a nearly totally safe investment. Now bandits and minor faction lords sometimes attack caravans even if they are a bit stronger.
  
• The pottery shop was very profitable - by creating 2 pieces of pottery (80 denars each) from one clay (20 denars) and doing this 4 times a day. Now one clay produces 1 pottery and pottery demand is halved to make its0 price more stable.

Other

• Fixed the age of the player's brother.
  
• Further fixes for NPC weight and build parameters as well as some NPC age fixes.

• Reverted the weight and build changes of NPCs and troops, so that overweight characters are much less common. Kept the changes for special high-tier units such as Falxmen.
  
• Character Skill Levels will no longer be automatically increased when a save game from a version before 1.1.0 is loaded.
  
• Fixed a crash that occurred after taking prisoners in hideouts.
  
• Fixed a crash that occurred when a character maxed-out their attributes and focus points.
  
• Fixed the black particles bug.
  
• Fixed some performance spikes that happened during missions.
  
• Fixed a battle crash that was caused by a character having no culture.

Crashes

• Fixed a rare formation AI exception.
  
• Fixed a crash that occurred when a mount without a rider heard an arrow.
  
• Fixed a crash that occurred at the end of the "Army of Poachers" quest when the AI tries to continue fighting.
  
• Fixed a crash that happens when a campaign is started for the second time without exiting the game.
  
• Fixed a crash that occurred when selecting the option to attack in the “Rival Gang Leader” quest after loading a game.
  
• Fixed a crash that occurred when AI characters tried to barter prisoners.

Greetings warriors of Calradia!

Since the release of Bannerlord, we have shared a number of hotfix patches with you to address some of the most prevalent challenges that players were experiencing. At this point, we want to begin establishing a more structured patch process to better support content changes that bear a greater risk for your gameplay experience.

For this purpose, we intend to introduce 2 additional branches to Steam. Aside from our public branch, which players will use by default, we will also offer opt-in alpha and beta branches.

The beta branch will include content that has gone through our internal testing and will be exposed to public testers for at least one week. During this period, we will address discovered issues with hotfixes. Our goal is a weekly cycle where we push our internal version to the beta and the prior beta version to the main Steam build. However, if serious challenges arise, we may delay an update until those issues have been addressed.

The alpha branch will include content that is untested. It is intended for players, modders and explorers that wish to be as close to development as possible - even at the cost of stability. Our goal is to update it daily with our latest development branch.

Please be aware that opting into the alpha or beta branch may negatively impact your experience.

You can find the patch notes for the beta branch below. We will publish the alpha branch at a later date.
