Soulstorm and DC Enhanced - We'll Make It Orky

[Iron Father]

ahh lol, thats probably were i got it from lol, if anyone wants to play online send me a message! this mod would be heaps of fun online =D

[fairline]

I have the SS version - it's fantastic; best mod I've played that adds lots of extra units without altering the feel of the original game too much. I'd love to have the DC final version as well if anyone has it.

BTW, does anyone know where I can get hold of a wraithguard model and texture from? I'd like to add one into my copy of SS Enhanced...

[Iron Father]

has anyone made a wraithguard? i want someone to make the new wraithlords too!

[Gorb]

There are no Wraithguard models available for the community as of yet, and the new Wraithlord has not been modelled, AFAIK.

Also, Iron Father, fairline asked exactly the same thing as you in the post above yours. Posting what someone has just posted about is kinda pointless no?

[masterslay]

I would really like to try this mod, but i cant seem to find i anywhere and filefront is just redirecting to the frontpage.

I dont want the soulstorm enhancement mod. I just want the dc version of the enhancement mod final.

And would like to try the dc grey knight unofficial campaign too, if someone has it.

thanks

[masterslay]

Yes! finaly i found dc_enhanced_final.exe. Man ive been searching for this file for long time, until i found it on a chinese forum, where a chinese choosed to upload the file on this chinese hosting site, man i am surprised that Chinese play dow mods too .

But to download the file, you need to download this program called Namipan robot or something. And then click on the sentece after the >

The file is hosted here:
http://www.namipan.com/d/a34b691c3ce...8f25bcf03e7307

I know it sounds suspecious but it works :P. Try it, you only risk getting your computer hacked , thats all.

Btw, if someone has the grey knight unofficial campaign, please upload it.

ps. why is it that relic, only focused on the chinese, so that the are only one to play coh online ;(.

[Mute Orphan]

Ah jeese I'd just pick up SS for 20 bucks off ebay

[masterslay]

I played with dc enhanced final with combiner mod, and when i am playing against chaos the game crashed in the middle of the game.

Also it seems like the ai aint using the chaos marks, so they dont use their chaos lords.

I think i have everything installed in proper order, first i have dc patched to 1.2 and then installed the following mods "tyranids mod", inquisition daemonthunt and last steel legion, all of them newest version. Then installed combiner mod. and last the enhanced mod. The enhanced mod i just copied to the darkcrusade folder, without changing anything.

but i notice that the "enhancedcomb folder" ai controlpanel is different from the enhanced folders ai controlpanel.

The funny thing is that chaos i acting perfectly when only using enhanced mod "without combiner" they use their marks and everything. But when using combiner mod it crashes

Pls. support the dc final a little bit more :P

[masterslay]

What i did, was simply taking the files from the "enhanced" folder to the "enhancedcomb" folder.

now its working, unless something else comes in the way.

NOTICE: FATAL ai error with dh and steel legion mod.

[Iron Father]

Gorb,

I think it was the craft world eldar mod, or anyways there was a eldar mod where they did make wraithguard, i saw some pics, but i dont know if the mod is still going =(

masterslay,
the rule of most mods is not to mess with the originals because it can cause problems with other mods. an example is the chaosbuildingsmod, if you were to combine it in the combiner mod with another that edits the original chaos race, then you get a error and the game will crash.

Atleast, thats what ive found out on my own =D if im wrong please let me know ^__^

masterslay,
someone made a grey knight campaighn? i want seez! lol

[masterslay]

Ironfather
Actually The mods i use dont modify the original races (as far as i know), i only use the 3 full race mods, daemon hunters, steel legion, tyranids. Except that dh replace gk with deathwatch, but the enhanced mod do the same.

and i didnt change anything in the other mods, i remained them as original as they can be. But dc still crash when playing against chaos ai.
I am not an expert at mods, i just saw that there were difference between the two folders "enhanced" and "enhancedcomb" ai controlpanel, which was included in the dc_enhanced_final.exe. Just copy-pasted everything (because i am lazy) crossed my fingers hoping i worked, and apparently it did (So maybe it is not just the ai mod).

The ai controlpanel in the "enhanced" folder was of newer version, and the one in the "enhancedcomb" was an older version, so i was just thinking that maybe it was a mistake, since it looked like nothing in the "enhancedcomb" had been changed since beta3 apparently.
or
maybe it was on purpose and i didnt quite installed everything correctly and i was missing something.
It could maybe be the combinermod, which didnt ran everything right. i dont know, and i dont know about i have screwed anything in the mod or the other races, but now at least chaos is running normally (i think so), so i dont care so much about it being 100% original, the most important thing is that it is working

Actually the grey knight unofficial campaign, is made by morat also, but i think he implemented it already in the mod, so no reason uploading it again. But actually it just replace some sm honorguards with gk

If someone know about, how to install it correctly, and have seen i have done somethng wrong please tell me

But thanks for the advice

Btw i think this is the coolest mod i have seen, it adds a bit more spices to the food, + it works with the combiner mod, i use to be dh, while my friend plays as sm. Sometime against chaos or tyranids. So thats why i dont wanna play with other mods, because i cant be dh. I had to test the mod, before we would play together, and i felt terrified, when seeing chaos not using their new units, and the game crashing in the middle of the game (everytime).

So actually i dont like change stuff too much, but it wasnt playable, if i didnt do it.

SO PLEASE KEEP SUPPORT THIS WONDERFUL MOD (easier said than done)

NOTICE: FATAL ai error with dh and steel legion mod.
Dont know the reason why, maybe old version of ai mod

[fairline]

@Masterslay: Thanks for finding the link to the Chinese dl site for DC enhanced. Unfortunately I've clicked every link I can find on it w/o getting a download. Any chance you can enlighten me please?

[masterslay]

Well, you need to download their program called "nanorobot", try and use google translate, so you can see where to download the program, but i think you need to switch back to chinese again to download the file. Actually i cant remember exactly how i did. But i pressed on the words after the ">" and then it will download automaticly.

It didnt work first time for me, but after some tries it happen that it worked and downloaded with slow speed. Just like torrent, sort of.

just write back if it doesnt work

[Mute Orphan]

@Masterlay, given the age of some of the mods in relativity to different patches/hotfixes they've been out for, my bet is you got something in there messed up and probably it's the AI. The reason it crashes mid game is no doubt do to the AI trying to build a certain thing that no longer exists due to the modification or vice versa. If i were you I would make two copies of the mod and use the old AI for one and the new for the other and see what works right.

[masterslay]

If someone still use dc enhanced final mod, and plays against chaos ai and everything works fine please tell me. I dont know actually it is on my computer there is something wrong, maybe compatibility issue (i use vista), by the way forgot to tell i also installed the community mappack 1-4 + mission 1 battle for kelsneyd + tyranid survival maps. I have no idea about they interfere in something or not, but most unlikely.

@Mute Orphan
yeah i think so too, so thats what i have been trying to do, i tried moving the new ai race folder and new aicontrolpanel (i think it is 3.0 while the old is properbly 2.5) to the enhancedcomb. But then sl (ai v.2.5) and dh (ai v.unknown) ai does not work, tyranid ai did though, but it uses 2.6. I think it is due to them using the old ai code or something, that they crash when using ai 3.0, and i dont think i can do anything about it. SO maybe thats the reason why the maker of this mod, has decided to leave things like this, i think that he stated it earlier in this thread .

But well, if no one is gonna support dc any longer i am forced to use my ss copy (sigh), which i didnt want to use, if the mods didnt support ss properbly, but i think that sl, tn, dh ai etc. will be supported soon with the newest ai by thudmeizer which is 3.1, so they can work properbly.

[gerberman]

I really do not understand why some peope are so against SS. Use the patch's and Maktakas unofficial patch and there is nothing wrong with the game. Get a grip and move on... The modding community has only one direction to move and its not backward!!

[Richter]

^^ What gerberman said.

Half the time most mods do use the bugfix mod as a base i believe.

[masterslay]

I have gotten everything working perfectly with soulstorm (yeah i converted ) Using Sl, dh, nids all with the newest ai 3.0 or 3.1.

I have only done some minor changes, like puting a frontend model at the menu, and ss_objective point, so the each races respective flag can be shown except from sob and de (took it from the dh mod), dont know how to do that .

This has to be the best mod which has "enhanced" my dow experience good job

It would be awesome, maybe in next release, if you could implement the chaptermaster from the fok mod for the sm

And maybe later all the different greater daemons for the different chaos gods

[gerberman]

Masterlay, Morat has not been around for a long, long time to update this mod.

[masterslay]

damn what a shame, would be nice if he came back or someone else could do it (well i hope so ).

[gerberman]

Or you could look at some other mods which do essentially the same thing.

[/end shamless plug]

[Outlawgrave]

Hey i hate to ask, but im having problems geting the mod to work, i downloaded it, and extracted it got a folder called enhanced ( BTW i got the SS version) and i put that folder in my SS file, but its not showing up

[Lleman]

Did you also put the Enhanced.module file in the SS root folder or in the Enhanced folder? (the former is the proper way to do )

[Outlawgrave]

Hmmm actual i didnt tranfer it at all i got it but it wasnt in the folder so i left it alone should i put it in the enhancted folder or SS directly?

[corncobman]

The module should be in the Soulstorm folder alongside with the mod folder.

[Outlawgrave]

Well did that and it worked, I feel stupid lol.
But yea played it was great been looking for stricking scoprions for a while
but if suggestions are still being taken, I would suggest buffing up the wave serpent a bit i dont think the mech and troop armor add ons worked on the wave or the dire and scoprions

other then that i only played one round to test things but still Omfg i loved it.
thank you, and thanks to the two guys that helped me a bit ago =p

[Darknite]

any updates?

[Slayer0Kings]

Anyone know how to get the enhancement mod to work with the combiner mod?
It's been asked I know but the combiner mod functions a little different in SS as opposed to DC
Any Help would be appreciated.

[DeathScream]

I have been reading over this thread and after some light googling I found a warp daemon mod for dawn of war, it has the bloodletter textures which some of you (myself included) want in the next release.

[RMX]

I'm pretty sure there is no next release for this mod. No word of it for more than a year. You can try replacing the textures yourself, but beware of permissions and other stuff.

[DeathScream]

That is a shame, I will look into doing it myself but I am still new to modding dawn of war. I don't need to retexture them just to implement them into SS enhanced, not quiet sure how to do so though. I'll browse around for some tutorials

[Darknite]

can someone reupload the dc enchanced mod pls

[derdy]

hi
great mod
if you release a new version add the renegade miltia to the chaos forces(you can find model and skins on the forum)
it would be great

[TheDarkFox]

trying to get the mod but cant find it anywhere mort is there somewhere i can still get it? please get back thank you

[RMX]

I never thought that my huge DoW folder full of old installers would pay off

[gab]

Thx for the link dude! I thought the creator will never update the links for soulstorm :/ but thx to you I can play it already!! FTW

[gab]

PLS! Finish the Soulstorm version!

[Cucaracha]

Can't find DC version at Filefront, it says is not there. Just to let you know.

[masterslay]

I do have the dc final version, I can try reupload it if you want, but I rather advice you to just play ss version nowadays , because it is more staibil and dont crash .
I have also combined it together with some of the most kickass race mods for SS like: Inquisition daemonhunt, steel legion, tyranids and the latest addition, some mods from bothy_p at filefront Renegades/lost and damn mod at http://dawnofwar.filefront.com/file/..._Damned;120647 and http://dawnofwar.filefront.com/file/..._Part_2;120648, chaos daemons http://dawnofwar.filefront.com/file/...aemons_;120830 and http://dawnofwar.filefront.com/file/..._Part_2;120755 . Just so you know the filefront site acts weird and thus sometimes files appear lost, but they arent, so be patient and try refresh site again. I Also really recommend the BlackTemplar mod by jones, but unfortunately it cannot coop with the enhanced mod, and will crash which is kinda weird since it works if combining with all the aformentioned mods, except enhanced. I am not so sure about combining enhanced with the Dowai mod as it seems to me, that it mess up some build order and stuff from the enhanced mod, but i am not 100% sure, at least it dont crash so try see for yourself.

[Cucaracha]

Really! That's amazing,
Codex is one of the best mods I have been playing, unfortunately renegades and deamons I get them with scarr error. I'm thinking to enhanced my pc with a new processor, board, graphic card. and a bigger hard drive.
Still thou the coedx renegades and deamons I got them to work once, but when I installed another mod the scarr error came back, si I'm trying to figure out what order should I install all the codex mods, so I installed cedex race 1st and the rest after. There's little instruction what mod is after what. You know Bp has grey knighs & space marines they work really well. I believe my pc maybe at play too? I'll keep figuring out how to get mods back to normal, besides I'm crap at modding and I can do certain things with computer once I use all my resources and get nowhere, then I'm just a sundae dump. I also got bp emeil from a reader file in codex, but Fielfront always logs me out. Thanks I look forward more mod goodies from yoiu.

Well I dont know why it gives you scar error, but did you try install the new versions of those mods i have linked to or do filefront gives you troulbe still? By the way if it still gives scar error after the new updates, maybe you should reinstall everything from fresh, and then install the mods again and see if it works, the install order I dont think is important. I remember it gave me trouble back then, and then i moved some files around and fixed it somehow (dont remember how), but i have used and replaced everything with the new updates, so maybe they works for you too?

Also if you get scar error, maybe try and post a screendump if you toogle the console, and see if someone can identify the cause to it. I am no expert at looking at scar errors but well I can give it a try

Good luck with it :P

[Cucaracha]

THX masterslay, I believe there's a possibility of some folders gone wrong and I know that now, it's my fault I need to reformat my pc only way to get rid off of an error I commited.

install everything from this page, parts 1-3 first, then hotfix:
http://www.gamefront.com/files/21739464/codexhotfix_rar
Best delete anything you have of codex first (everything), it's all in these.

[Cylarne_04]

@boothy: Your work is very good, keep it up.
