Guys I'm pretty sure someone made a more up to date version of this already. Also no I'm pretty sure exe mods aren't compatible with epic.

does it work with epic? any way to mod crossplatform?

@FracturedPixel you may have to delete your scoreboard files with steam autocloud off, assuming you didn't try to load this from the barony mod loader

crashes my whole PC

Maybe because you can't read

this pile of shit crashed my pc

Wish you all the best with your depression Wrath, take care

or maybe it was the regular exe? either way, you'll know its 8 players if you have arrows to page left/right on the player/lobby menu

Thanks! It worked for me like Redskull said. Change the game to beta 4.2.1 and run the MP exe. I just extracted the game to the main folder and hope it won't update in the future lol.

That worked with 6 players <3

No worries, bro. You need to take care of yourself :)

Sorry guys. I have serious anxiety and depression and it's not like I get paid to keep this updated. I know I let you all down. It's just hard to keep up with responsibilities.

Id do anything for this to get updated

v4.3 update??????

A group of friends and I got it working, but you have to go to properties and change to the 4.2.1 beta. Then follow install instructions here. Finally, do NOT start a modded game when at the menu, just a normal one. You'll still have 8 player slots.

are there any plans on an update to 4.3? or is it going to remain as a 4.2 mod?

@Emma does not work at all for current version. As for mac specifically idk. I believe the compilation was only for windows. They don't really make it readily accessible to make this kinda of mod for other platforms.

Does this work on mac? It does not seem to download when I subscribe

can i use in 4.3 version?

Also it's not so much porting as redoing everything because I'm an idiot and don't know if there's an easier way

I have a sort of guide. It may be incomplete in some areas but I can help with whatever is missing and maybe you can write it down. It should be linked on the github page in desc

Hey Wrath I'd be willing to port this to the new version. Do you have a guide on how I might go about doing this?

@D4RK3 54B3R Not likely and if I do it may be quite late. I've been wanting someone else to take over this project but no one wants to.

Will you be rebuilding this for Barony v4.3? :D

Hello mod author of “More Players 4.2 test 2” for Barony, I have encountered some issues while using this mod.

First, let me recount the situation:

My friend and I connected through a LAN to play the game together, and the game started and loaded without any issues.
However, after my friend exited the game, we were unable to load into the corresponding game lobby when we tried to play again.
I have captured the game logs from that time:

[00-57-57] loadGame() warning: hash check failed
[00-57-57] [SESSION]: Saving server flags
[00-57-57] [SESSION]: Using savegame server flags
[00-57-57] loadGame() warning: hash check failed

[00-57-57] successfully contacted server at 26.99.98.185.
[00-57-57] sending join request...

Got this working with current release of Barony with 6 players! It does have a couple of bugd tho.

idk if you figured out if others could play but i got this to work with a 6 man lobby- good mod thank you!

Yeah it works for 4.1 my comment was during a brief period where I released a 4.2 version

@Wr4Th_Of_D0g: I got it working, I changed the gameversion on steam to the 4.1.1 compatibility branch under Betas, then copy pasted the modded files into barony, and deleted the scores.data and scores_multiplayer.dat in the root barony folder.

I did have an issue launching it oringally, but its because my game was on 4.2 - Eat My Hat update, so that was the cause.

Thanks for your hard work!

Has anyone other than me gotten this to work?

dm me on discord. Same name

we messed around with files and version for unironically 6 hours lmao the barony plus worked for 4.1 but the multiplayer didn't work in either version we tried in both. the best we got was the multiplayer to run in 4.2 when we removed one of the item files that overwrote the game worked then but certain classes crashed it and probably certain random spawns crashed it as well. when backtracking we went through the files one by one and probably reinstalled the game like 8 times each messing with both version before eventually giving up and backtracking to barony plus in the unupdated version hope this helps!

You used Barony+ and it worked?? That shouldn't be possible. Are you using 4.1 or 4.2 Barony for base?

something in the items folder seems to crash the game we took out files one by one after it kept crashing on load up (right before main menu) and that made it so we could load in and join the lobby but some classes even switching to them would cause a total game crash. we tried barony plus and it worked completely fine so it was something in this update but beyond that I couldn't tell you what specifically. apologies for not being specific the first time!

just saying it doesn't work tells me nothing.

this mod is so painful to install just for it to not work in any way that ive installed it with the instructions provided

It worked the first time I loaded it with the mod, afterwords it never worked again any tips?

HELP ME PLEASE IT DOESN"T WORK !!!!!!!!

To fix the SteamAPI_Init.
Right click barony, go to properties
Go to beta change to version 4.1.1
Then follow the steps above

I also have the same problem

Same here, can't find SteamAPI_Init from DLL

the message say "can't find SteamAPI_Init from DLL E:\ProgramFiles\Barony\barony_MP.exe" to me D:

PLEASE FIX , EXPLAIN BETTER THANK YOU

It's an older version where I told people to install to the vanilla game directory. I changed things to tell people not to do that anymore so I said just for that version to reinstall the game

WHERE DO YOU GET mp1.1.0????

bump asking for an update

hi

hi

update for 4.2?

i would literally get oiled up and twerk on camera for anyone that fixes this mod.

Can anyone corroborate the crash on windows 11 comment?
