I did keep that in mind when making the mod. The crazy weapons are only in one faction and only on the bots in multiplayer. The zombies are only in one faction and only in multiplayer as well. I suggest that you simply don't use these two factions

even beeing mixed it is really cool,and we can even "roleplay" as a "exorcista"with holy/demonic/enchanted weapons wich chooses to exterminate the evil,or be in it side,and i liked your mod because it gives it a "fantasy" in the mount e blade i actualy got bored of realism of medieval xD,this will animate me again i thank you

So many heads, so many thinks

THANK GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Before i download the kengeki 1,5 mod and after one day it was deleted , and now it went back alive again! YAH!
Please please please i beg you to make a kengeki single player version because on the other hand in mount and blade it has the kengeki single player already , except for warband - -.
Anyway keep up the good work!

Can u please fixed the single player version (i mean the map ) for example u start a new game and you are in shariz , when u want to go down to kyoto and because there is no land to cross so you can't go there , this is a big bug!!!!
I don't want to cheat to use ship to travel there - -.
Please make the single player version better and the map better ( all fraction F***** up ) all fraction close together u know what i mean

I dont mind element of fantasy but huge and tiny camels are plain retarded and most players who want to ruin everyone's game take those.... its really annoying

yeah, those will be taken out in the next release....they mighta kinda sorta gotten left in there by accident....(sorry)

ooooh, man that is a big bug. sorry about that. I'll take the japan map out in the next release, unfortunately the map was an open source thing and he only released the compiled files so I don't think it's possible for me to edit it too much.

omgawd yah please update soon with the other map. This one was a good idea intentionally but the village and city placements are horrifying
Other than that so far I have really really enjoyed this mod.

i want to create a samurai mod,
can i use the items from your mod (only the armors) for my mod?

looks so amazing

you're gonna have to talk to the people we got a lot of the weapons and armor from. I believe the armor is from the Onin No Ran team but I don't know if you would be able to contact them or not.
here is their page

Fist of all, MANY THANKS to swordsusa and all those who sacrifice their skills and time to create this mod!
Its a lot of good stuff that you made to increase the entertainment and the gameplay itself. The new battle movement, the falling animation movies, the battle cries and sounds are impressive. The sword even made impressively accurate sound when it move inside the scabbard. Japan map and mercenaries are excellen ideas. The whole game received truly new image with Japanese style, which is new and made it far more playable. The bug for the map is bad, but nothing can be done about it. But I can`t see any changes in the factions except their names. They look just as the old ones but with new names. I`d love to play with "Zombies", "Demons" or whatever new races you`d like to add just as "Warsword" mod for the original game. But in Japan map a man expect to see Japanese things, right? If someone like to add Lineage Mod it is also a great idea. The mix of Japanese and Lineage doesn`t look so good. But you must receive some reward of something of the sort for the implementation of the special female armors. It is the first of its kind. I began new game just to look at it. Also the "Jinbaori" is another wonderfull addition and also historically correct (at least for the warlords) and completely overwhelming any sets of boots. The Shinobi equipment is very well made and I wonder why the faction itself doesn`t look to have it. Kinpakuoshi helm and the new horned helmets look quite good. The idea to replace the shield with left hand weapon is incredible and unique for this game and it`s mods if you allow me to say that. Could it be used as two-weapons fighting? KataKama Yari however is typical Chinese spear and have no place in Japan style game. There is histocial Katakayama Yari. Kami No Ryuu, the same Chu-Ko-Ni crossbow from another mod is exactly Korean style. Kikuchi Yari is perfect. Naginata and Kagura polearms and just fine. I`d like to add my special thanks for the Haganeno mask which become my personal favourite just for the pure image. Look quite demonic and it`s just lovely. A whole set would be very nice. But the plate armor in knight style Kinpakuoshi Nanbando Gusoku look very strange and European to me, compared with Gusoku, Akaitoodoshi, Hitoodoshi and Konitoodoshi armors which look far more suitable for Japan. The horses from "Warsword" mod are good, I actually hoped to see the Nightmare horse but it seems to miss here.
And in the end I`d like to thank you again for your hard work. I also played version 1.5 and saw the improvements of 1.6. But please, do not neglect the single player gamers. Please.
Sincerelly yours
Vorador1980

Too bad for the map ............... It is so hard to me to edit the map . omg omg omg looks like the single player version of it it is never going to work fine....

oh shit, sorry guy I forgot about that. If you replace the maps.txt and the parties.txt with ones from native and start a new game then single player will work fine. My bad

GREAT GREAT GREAT MOD! only one problem..WHERE ARE THE NINJAS!? can you tell me wich kingdom they are and how to get that HUGE suriken? Thanks alot! I LOVE THE MOD THOUGH!

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IF THERE IS A FRACTION WHERE THE JAPANESE INVADED CALRADIA THEN IT WILL BE GREATER ( or chinese army maybe )
It work fine and i love it!

Not sure why, but all of the items you added to the game, only show up in the vendor, I thought it was supposed to show up on NPCs as well? Although, I really like this mod, it is great. However, shogunate and shinobi should dress the part I think, and they don't, so that makes it an 8/10. 1 point per faction. Other than that I love the mod. If you have a special fix for this problem it will become 10/10. Also, the zombies faction gets eliminated as soon as I start the game for some reason? comment last edited by crossfirex on Jan 17, 2011, 10:33:11 pm

swordsusa , the single player need to improve . on the other hand multiplayer i found a major bug. Is when u host a server chose the fraction tenbatsu it will crash the game.
THIS IS A BIG MAJOR BUG , is it because u add the new fish?? or something

Interesting, this does not occur to me, maybe try and redownload the mod and reinstall it. it could be a minor corruption in the download.

SP is not quite finished yet. I added the items to he vendors but not to the troops yet, hopefully it will be on the troops in the next release. MP works just fine for now, if you want to help make the SP just let me know

I actually, edited the factions myself, not extensively, but I erased pretty much everything of the old factions (except on farmers, because they are not samurai, therefore they still have sarranid stuff) Although the shogunate, shinobi, rebels, etc. as well as bandits, have all been overhauled to have samurai-like gear, as well as skills to fit. So if you have a regiment of shogunate men they have swords and spears like a japanese samurai, as well as armor. Still much to be done with it, but I did quite a bit. I also made it so that cavalry is a slight bit more rare. And edited the swords a bit to be faster/more damaging. These changes can easily be reversed though, as they are simply added to the spears/swords, and a few of the daggers (really only things used by troops). If you want, I can send you my edits, as well as the editor I used to do this, although you could just find the editor in the repository ^^ Changing the items back to normal is simple enough. Just overwrite the item_kinds.txt, I just find that the speed of the katana's as well as reach ( for some reason I kept missing a lot of strikes on horseback using a katana, and on foot it didn't reach all to well either, I tested this, and now it seems to work ok) The spears I just thought to balance the speed a bit more with swords, the swords and spears both got a damage boost, since a katana is very sharp and can easily cut through armor, and naginata's/yari's are very goot piercing/cutting spears.

On the point of rarer cavalry, I can tell you, they are not hard to find, they are just mostly on elite troops, which makes it harder to get them for you, and makes so that even the huge armies of the factions don't solely rely on them to win battles like they used to. The khergits have now been remodeled to be mainly archers, but they also have an infantry branch of spearman elite troops to keep the balance, but mainly archers, almost all of their troops are archers, including their horsemen. The shogunate, have sword wielding horseman, the tenbatsu have spearmen all the way, even their horseman, they have absoultely no ranged, but to compensate, they are uber spear wielders. The shinobi are what they are, they have some ranged, some melee and some throwing, pretty much a lot of skilled warriors, but none on horseback, and none too heavily armored. The rebels are much like the shogunate, but have no horsemen. All of the factions are equally balanced in different ways though, and each has appropriate gear.

I have yet to figure out how to edit the menus and descriptions/conversation, otherwise I'd have done that too. Another thing, is that I don't have the right resources or tools to edit castles/towns for japanese architecture things. Resources meaning, I don't have textures/meshes/etc.

Also, I don't know how to make it so that you can choose the japanese style banners. I can't stand the normal banners, so I want to get this part done as soon as possible.

I forgot to mention, I completely re-did all the hero's to have japanese gear as well, (also tweaked names to be japanese-ish) only re-named the ones with titles though. comment last edited by crossfirex on Jan 19, 2011, 05:48:19 am

If you have skype sent me a message or shoot me an e-mail at webmaster@birchlake.ath.cx the problem with doing it on compiled files is that it must be redone in the python code, you cannot just keep the txt files.

Thank you Swordsusa , now its work fine , damn the ping , why my ping is over 150 on all server?
Connection is 3G board band though..

3g isn't the best connection for anything in terms of ping. Also, I think I host the only two servers as of now and they are located in iowa, I don't know how close you are to that but distance can play a role.

nevermind then , i stick to single player now ,. .
Anyway don;t u think the shoooting is sucks. the conbat enhancement in archery is sucks because it is like a robot , is there anyway to revert it back to the normal native shooting.
i mean when u shoot it take so long to reload ande its is like a robot , don't u think swordsusa?

Just recently got onin no ran music working on kengeki. Not really sure if my choices to put what to where are good, but it's a start at least xD

Well that is good but i'm not sure if we can put that in an official release because we did not get permission for the onin no ran music but we are looking in to adding some music of some kind.

I think some of them aren't specificly onin no ran musics, it was just used in the onin no ran mod. And I found the music in a free pack here in the repository.

So far, just using the text edits, I have made successful troops cavalry, infantry, and ranged, all works just fine.

Hopefully you can get permission to use onin no ran music ^^ they sound really good. Especially when you are in battle and that japanese fight music starts playing, it can get you all glued into the fighting xD

How to remove the archery shooting animation???? Need Help!
I just wanna remove the archery , that is all. comment last edited by AlexDragon on Jan 23, 2011, 03:29:03 am

Simple, just edit the animations.brf, or take the mods animations out of the INI loading.

I happen to like the bow shooting animations, they are a bit more realistic, draw an arrow from your quiver and start pulling the bow string as you aim the bow. comment last edited by crossfirex on Jan 21, 2011, 04:32:07 am

where can u find the animations.brf,????

The animation is slightly slower than the native one, this was put in with the purpose of lowering the accuracy of an archer. it is needed to help balance things as there are very few shields in the game and those there are have a very small hitbox.

Okokay , i but i want the native one , please help ,where can i find the animations.brf on what file????

go to the kengeki module folder, go to resources, and there you should find animations.brf

Or in this case KengekiAnim.brf comment last edited by crossfirex on Jan 22, 2011, 04:55:59 am

yeah i found it , what do i do now>

Get a .brf editor (probably available in the modding tools on this site) and edit out the bow animations. Or you can just delete all the animations, and remove it from the INI. YOU HAVE TO REMOVE IT FROM THE INI IF YOU DELETE THEM, other wise it will crash your game.

But if you just edit them out of the .brf file then you should be fine. comment last edited by crossfirex on Jan 22, 2011, 07:30:03 am

is it in sp to?

Yeah Kengeki works SP too
