Set warband to high priority in process lasso or task managerĪnd voila, now I can enjoy my massive Prophesy of Pendor at directx9, maxed settings, battles at 450 units instead of slideshow game. TURNING OFF FORCE SINGLE THREADING AND THUS ALLOWING THE GAME TO USE THE MULTIPLE PHYSICAL CORES (0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14) Using process lasso or the task manager affinity to set used CPU's 0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14, the odd numbers are virtual cores so untick those as older games don't use them well and cause negative effects! Process lasso can automate it for warband every time you start it up. I lightly overclocked my Ryzen 2700x (gpu gtx 1080ti) from 3.7 to 4.0 Here's how I can now finally play and enjoy massive PoP battles with new gen CPUs: So we all know warband is very CPU intensive and doesn't use multiple coreswell yada yada, but actually alot of people on forums were recommending to turn ON force single threading, which is actually really counter intuitive after extensive testing Valks are pretty good but if you want to rule 200 legion elite cavs which are the best cavs in the game will beat noldor, well aslong as you keep the numbers in balance.I have found the solution for ryzen 2xxx series and upwards, and new gen multi core CPUs underperforming in massive unit sized battles (300-1000), went from 30 to a whopping 90 FPS with this!!! I chose to friend the noldor but fough them to see what they are made of. The undead imo is way harder than noldor. Yes Undead and Elves should be awesome but I just found it depressingĪnyway, thank you very much for the mod! I CANT wait for 4.0, literally.
Prophesy of pendor 4.0 update#
I hope in a future update they are toned down. At one point I had a 300 strong army of upgraded (3 times) Lady Valkyries and we just got decimated
Even with the best troops their armies are virtually unbeatable I found (And Im pretty damn good at this game to be honest). I think they need to be balanced in battles in order to give people a reason to fight them and not just autoresolve. The only thing that annoyed me about it was the way that auto-resolve doesnt work as it should for noldor and other special forces, and I often found myself feeling like a cheat by using this 'glitch'. I played it to death about 5 months ago, and loved it. I really cant wait for any updates to this mod. And I have been gaming (and modding) for over 20 years.

This really is one of the best mods I have played for any game in my life.
