I've been having a weird issue with Warband; whenever I try to launch the game, it almost immediately closes. Steam says I'm playing for a few moments, but the game never comes up - not even the module selection screen. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but nothing changed, even when I made sure to remove everything - even my modules folder. Curiously, when I use WSE v3.2 the game launches just fine, but unfortunately that generally locks me out of playing multiplayer.
Verifying the cache causes steam to find a problem and fix it, which as far as I can tell only recreates the steam_appid.txt file. Steam reports a 0-byte download that takes a very long time to finish, and the only changed file is that one. This has no effect on my ability to play the game.
Running the game in compatibility mode hasn't helped either, and neither has starting the game without steam active. mb_warband.exe seems to not work whatsoever.
I tried deleting rgl_config, but that didn't do anything either.
I'm completely out of ideas as to what exactly the problem is! I haven't changed anything about my system since I successfully played it last, as far as I know, and it still works perfectly fine using WSE.
