- Rename it to “Persistent Kingdoms”.
- Right click on newly renamed shortcut and select “Properties” from the appearing list.
- There should be a “Target” section under “Shourtcut” tab.
- Add “—module “Persistent Kingdoms” –no-intro” after the quotation mark. Now it should look like this (for my case it is in my Desktop): “C:\Users\user\Desktop\Warband WSE2\mb_warband_wse2.exe” —module “Persistent Kingdoms” –no-intro

Is it possible with other modules?
Yes. But if the your module changed shaders to a different way, you have to delete the shaders or demand the module’s WSE2 shaders otherwise it will crash!
For native you just simply copy and paste your original Native folder in to your WSE2’s “Modules” folder.
Remember you have to make a bat file or shortcut for it too.
