Item thumbnails in the inventory, troops and characters in the encyclopedia may look like their textures have artifacts ('stripes'). This step is not mandatory, but if you choose to not do it, your campaign will have many 5 minute loading screens when loading into battles until you have encountered all types of armies/parties with all of our custom assets present. This will also result in a long loading screen, but once you are done, your gameplay experience is going to be smooth. Once you are in the main menu, it is highly recommended that you pick the option to 'Build Shader Cache'. Depending on your PC's specifications, this may take anywhere from 10 minutes to over an hour.
The game is compiling shaders in the background. The game will appear to be stuck on the loading screen - this is normal.
Known IssuesThe very first time you load the game after downloading and enabling our mod will be slow.
