why the dawn of war series only?.. there was a guy who wanted to use it for his fallout mod

**Patman42x** · 10th Jul 10 1:30 AM

well for one that guy with the Fallout Mod was a stealing bastard who took assets from other mods without receiving permission. his mod got deleted from Moddb and hopefully from all other sites soon as well.

then of course you are not allowed to transfer any models from Dawn of War to a Fallout mod as that would cause IP and copyright issues. it's the same reason why you can't simply transfer DarkEldar from SS to DC as you would then make something that the owners of SS paid for available for free to the owners of DC

**horusheretic** · 10th Jul 10 1:33 AM

IP, loss of art recognition etc.

just a lot easier to know where everything is being used.

and the Fallout 3 guy was doing ip illegal things anyway such as using dow models and textures in his mod.
he also used a lot from another dow mod, even though he didn't get their permission.

we wont have anything to do with people like that.

**Whiteshield** · 10th Jul 10 8:18 AM

@Patman32 - gee pal come on. the "bastard" as you would call it was a 15 year old. I helped him by checking some bugs in his mod. so yeah, he didn't know better.

[edit] that was back when I didn't know he used dow assets. but I still like it and am playing it now and again.

[edit]@Patman32 - from other sites as well?.. if he uploaded it in some pirate site, it wouldn't get removed

**Gorb** · 10th Jul 10 9:33 AM

Age is no excuse, and obviously as you helped the person in question you are biased towards his case.

The team's decision to limit the sharing of assets is perfectly within their rights considering that the FoK team is possibly one of the most open mod teams when it comes to sharing of assets.

**Whiteshield** · 10th Jul 10 10:49 AM

@gorb - meh :P

**Maxajax2** · 11th Jul 10 2:38 AM

if you ask me age is a fine excuse as kids are usually dumbasses. kind of offtopic so lets not get into that.

**Grabnutz** · 11th Jul 10 3:09 AM

back on topic please guys, the team have had their say.

**Whiteshield** · 11th Jul 10 3:55 AM

kk, back on topic then, will FoKaurava have new races thats not Black Templars?..

**Gorb** · 11th Jul 10 4:13 AM

Black Templars were included purely because Melooo spent a lot of time and effort creating them. There are no plans to include any other races beyond Dark Eldar and the Sisters of Battle/Inquisition (in Soulstorm, obviously) due to UI constraints.

**Whiteshield** · 11th Jul 10 4:51 AM

UI constraints?.. Would you explain that please?....

**Gorb** · 11th Jul 10 5:12 AM

Adding in additional races means they would all have to share the same UI layout. There is no way around this limitation as all non-Relic races share the same taskbar bind of "other".

**Whiteshield** · 12th Jul 10 1:24 AM

I see.... Thank you gorb for the info

**Fleshp0int** · 15th Jul 10 10:43 PM

Yoink!

**Maxajax2** · 16th Jul 10 4:49 PM

oh wow thats awesome. i am beginning to suspect a Doomrider hero unit for Slaaneshi chaos?

**[]inveigle[]** · 16th Jul 10 8:34 PM

Get your motor runnin', head out on the highway!
Great work.

**horusheretic** · 17th Jul 10 1:36 AM

i am beginning to suspect a Doomrider hero unit for Slaaneshi chaos?

probably not

**Maxajax2** · 17th Jul 10 6:40 AM

yeah that would be a lot o work. not the modding, you guys are ace at that, but obtaining enough cocaine to keep the bike and driver running. one can only offer so many acid laced kittens.

**Warhammerfug** · 18th Jul 10 5:07 AM

Ok... i have been following and enjoying this mod for a while but havent checked the forums since the new 3.6 was released, and i was wondering where i could get the thunder fire from or when a possible ss release would be?

...and could Majaz2 on post:575 pm me on where could i get the mod for fall out from?...

and as always thanks for this awsome mod and the attention to the rules for tabletop!
Great work!

**horusheretic** · 18th Jul 10 5:54 AM

thunderfire still isnt ingame yet. it needs fx and oe coding... probably a few more anims too.

Onward and upwards gents!

**Souske22** · 21st Jul 10 10:42 AM

hmm..is it just me or do the wraith guards look like they're going through puberty? on a related note keep up the good work

**phaseshifter87** · 21st Jul 10 10:50 AM

Freakin sweet!! WRAITHGUARD!

They look amazing!

**SandroniusPrime** · 22nd Jul 10 4:50 AM

Hello !

I played many games at your beautiful mod. In the last six or seven games played these days I found the cpu using the chaos and Necron does not progress beyond the first tier
In addition the imperial guard and space marines do not ever upgrade their tanks.
Is it possible to fix the bug ?
Can you tell me how to find the log file of the game please ?

Thank you!
Congratulations for the high quality work that continued for a long time!

**Rotlung** · 22nd Jul 10 4:55 AM

The AI is still WIP.

**Whiteshield** · 22nd Jul 10 6:20 AM

Question to the mod team: Will you finally add the badges layer for the Raptors?... Tried to add it myself but there seems to be a little bug in the model. And will the final version show us the Chaos Lord with dual lightning claws?...

**Richter** · 22nd Jul 10 11:47 PM

Wow horus.

It's sad to see you go.

Many thanks and good luck in further life, Mr Modelling Machine.

EDIT: If this sort of reply is not wanted here I apologise. I'm am not a member of the FoK board.

**Whiteshield** · 23rd Jul 10 3:38 AM

@Richter - what?... HORUS! NOOOOOO!!! You're models are kickass!

**Warhammerfug** · 23rd Jul 10 3:51 AM

This has probably already been noted

but there is mojoy clipping on some units that didn't have it in the previous version...
and when will the SWOOPING HAWKS be added?

and if you need ideas for some products... just post it on the page and have a look at the variety to choose from...

and it was a pleasure HORUS! I salute you for your wonderful work, best wishes

**Hrfan** · 23rd Jul 10 4:28 AM

Will the vanilla wraithlord model be replaced someday?
Maybe its possible to use the old animations with the new model which actually is not much more than a big wraithguard

**Pedro** · 23rd Jul 10 5:44 AM

Sad to see you go Horus. You have done alot of stuff for the community, and i thank you.

**Whiteshield** · 23rd Jul 10 5:58 AM

@Hrfan - yeah, I really wanted to see a wraithlord with a sword

@Mod team - Imma gonna post this again.. "Question to the mod team: Will you finally add the badges layer for the Raptors?... Tried to add it myself but there seems to be a little bug in the model. And will the final version show us the Chaos Lord with dual lightning claws?..."

**Calgar** · 23rd Jul 10 7:56 AM

@Whiteshield: bugs should be reworked by the ss version and if its in the codex the yes

**Whiteshield** · 23rd Jul 10 8:31 AM

Very nice...

still many bugs to iron out before the final 3.6 version's release?...

**Gorb** · 23rd Jul 10 9:34 AM

"many" bugs? I didn't think there were that many, myself. Stuff like badges and banners and texture glitches are art polish; not bugs.

Could you elaborate?

**Whiteshield** · 23rd Jul 10 5:03 PM

you know, sometimes, there are SCAR or AI errors

**Gorb** · 24th Jul 10 1:10 AM

AI is something that is being worked on, as for SCaR errors . . . go over to our forums and report them. Unless they're relating to the Single-Player Campaign which isn't fixed yet and isn't our concern at the moment.

My sincere thanks for your contributions to the community. My Regards and greetings to you Horusheretic. As Medes you've earned the right to have your name inscribed on the stele of heroes * "DOW".

Good luck I.R.L

* And yes friends it is a title that must be earned. It must calculate the amount of production modding, the Community contribution and the real impact of those changes on this game and its Mods.

**ProfMan96** · 29th Jul 10 8:59 PM

ok I'll make this quick....is there a release date for a soulstorm version of this mod

? I'm sure there has been a few mentions already but....unfortunately I was not gifted with the patience of checking all 13 pages :P it'd be nice if someone could help me out

**Patman42x** · 29th Jul 10 11:56 PM

is there a release date for a soulstorm version of this mod

no

**Maxajax2** · 30th Jul 10 8:46 AM

why would artists choose a deadline over perfecting their vision. it will be done when its done.

**ProfMan96** · 30th Jul 10 9:28 PM

Fair enough. Well, it's a good thing my friend bought me a this game yesterday (happy b'day to me :P) oh....just 30 mins left b4 finished dling. CANT WAIT!!!

**Maxajax2** · 31st Jul 10 12:52 PM

Now go and mop up the metal boxes!

**ProfMan96** · 31st Jul 10 7:05 PM

METAL BAWKSES!!!!! AAARRRGGHHHH

**Destraex** · 3rd Aug 10 2:51 AM

I second the swooping hawks. Been looking for a mod that does them. Its something the eldar being so nimble have always been missing... jump troops

**ProfMan96** · 3rd Aug 10 5:14 AM

well...if u have soulstorm u could always download Corncobman's Fun Mod. I'm just saying...

**Darth_Overkill** · 3rd Aug 10 8:55 PM

I don't know wether it's been reported before or not but the Chaos Defiler's Havoc Missile Launcher fires to the right.
It looks rather funny as the projectile comes from the launcher on the Defilers left side goes through the Defilers chasis before continuing on to it's victim.
All the rest of the Defiler's weapons fire forward just fine it's only the missiles that don't.

**Destraex** · 4th Aug 10 4:01 AM

profman96, thanks for that I will take a look...

**Maxajax2** · 4th Aug 10 1:59 PM

Aha so members of the FOK tech team do come here occasionally. in that case i'd like to repeat that the threads on the IG's Inquisitorial Land Raider do not move, and there is an animation bug with the construction of the Inquisitorial Landing Path.

**Calgar** · 6th Aug 10 8:24 AM

If there are bugs post on their forums: http://fok.dow-mods.com/index.php
and repeating things won't get replies any quicker.
