[Last updated 02.05.12] Mount & Blade and Mount & Blade: Warband tweaking made easy! TweakMB provides an easy-to-use interface for activating and modifying gameplay tweaks in Mount & Blade. This includes things such as modifying tournament bet amounts, village improvement build times, party sizes, and much more (see below for a complete list). You can make as many modifications as you want within the program, then save all of them at the same time.

Using TweakMB is very similar to modifying the module text files manually, but TweakMB automates the entire process (meaning it's much easier and faster to use), and also reduces the chances of user error. The pre-release versions contain only a limited selection of tweaks, but the number of tweaks supported will continue to increase with future releases.


Installation
Extract the downloaded .zip file to any location on your computer, then run "TweakMB.exe". That's it!

You will need to have the .Net Framework 3.5 installed, so if you don't have it, go grab it from Microsoft's website ().


What mods does TweakMB support?
TweakMB will load any mod you throw at it, provided the appropriate text files are present in the folder. See below for the current list of mods that are explicitly supported. If a mod is not listed below, you can still load it using TweakMB, but some tweaks may be unavailable depending on the mod.
