Right now, I'm working on optimizing the Stronghold, thanks to ThePhANToM for pointing out the area that needed attention – the castle itself. I've removed the background of giant trees and swamp vegetation. After these changes, I was able to run the mod on a huge map!!! Now I'll look for more heavy models in the city and remove them:D The city will be less vibrant, but the main bug causing the game to crash will be fixed.
I'll also be reworking the creatures – the Kroks from NCF look great and have minimal models attached + they at least resemble the canon.
I'll also add an alternative download link, as it seems that sometimes broken files are downloaded from Yandex.Disk – either textures are missing from the models or some geometry is absent!
