Yeah we need to implement a permanent qmv, I have to do it every session, so tiresome!
You should change the type size to way smaller, the text in this game is unnecesarily enormous. Makes the text not clog up your screen so much. Also, you don't have to read what is being typed. Maybe making it smaller helps ignore it.
To change text size go to warband folder/data and open font_data.xml with notepad or something. Change font_size=70 to a larger number. I currently use 90 and I like it. Might be small on small monitors though.
