[UPDATE 17a] TC MOD, badges and colour schemes for Retribution.

[hangar-8]

@Diviator: Forgot to mention... I removed my genestealer edit, I didn't consider the quality good enough.

[cdtpullem]

ahhh yea i see but the new badge in IA 9 looks like this,

[TFDawn]

Awesome mod! Just wanted to ask two things.
First would you be able to release just the new colours added? I just find it annoying that the robes for chaos look really odd being split into two different colours.
Second could you possible tell me how I can make my own colours?
Oh and by the way thank you so much for making a beautiful dark red ^_^ I was so annoyed that DoW2 never had one.

[hangar-8]

How do you mean, the robes are split into 2 different colours? They shouldn't be, on my installation Heretics, Sorc and Chaos Lord all share the same robe colours. Screenshot perhaps?

As far as releasing just the colours, i guess I could compartmentalise the mod somewhat.. Colours/skin edits/chapters & factions.. I'll see, I have an update I mean to release soon.

How to make your own colours? Hmm.. I'd have to do a tutorial, I'll see if I can fit one in.

[TFDawn]

If you could that would be great thank you.
What I mean is if my main colour would be, lets say red, and then my third colour would be white for the chaos lords cloak i then it would change the sorc and the heretics to have red on top then white on the bottom. I bet that is what you were trying to achieve and that is fine it just looks bad on alot of my colour schemes to have the third colour (i think) to be a large bulk of the colour.

Also you said you mentioned that the new colours could be seen by everyone? however every time I have asked someone if they could see the new colour they would always say the could see only black, am I the only one with this problem?

Edit:
Here is what I mean:


All i ment was that the robe colour had far to much coverage on the model meaning that on heretic and sorc it looked like it was their primary colour. (Also sorry the pictures are cut off at the bottom, I have no idea why that happened). Look as I said its probably me just being to picky but if i changed the colour to lets say the primary colour (black) then it would change another unit to look bad. Anyway if you could manage to find a tutorial and maybe releases the colours, espically the dark reds I would really appricate it.

[Procyon]

From which files can I get this armor? How can I use it out of the mod?


How can I use your tactical/devastator symbol in the non-modded game?

[hangar-8]

That's a personal armour mod I made kitbashing a few things together. The TAC symbol cannot be used without modding/using a SGA. If you're worried about using the mod online.. it doesn't break multi.. it's just the other players won't see all the changes unless they too have the mod installed.

[Procyon]

Do the assault and devastator marines get their own symbols, or does the tactical get shared by them? Can I ask you for a mod that only adds this armor (and epic armor to sergeants) ?

[Mortarion]

Hey Hangar just wondering if you could helpme with something

So you know the mod makes the default Chaos schemes look a little weird (obviously)

Yet you had it so it didn't but in the last update you changed that cause it broke the DA dlc which is fair for those who have it

I don't and i was wondering if you could show me how you fixed it since it doesn't matter for me cause nothing will break

Cause i put the Rubric marine mod on my CSM and they look really weird on the thousand sons scheme and the other schemes it doesn't work on cause they end up all the same colour (Black Legion all black not black and gold headress that i love

Anything you can do to help will be greatly appreciated

[Corsicasteph]

hi hangar make you more updates for the TC Mod? the normaly Black legion skin is not god with the black+red+yellow+green can you make me a other version for the campaign please your Hangar8 Black legion with Black Gold and Red is very very good can you change this please for me ! that i have these skin in the campaign:Hangar8 Black legion with Black Gold and Red !!!!!

[Gorb]

Please don't bump a thread simply to ask for updates. Asking for somebody to implement something for you is not allowed as per the subforum rules and regulations. Take the time to learn the tools to do it yourself, or perhaps approach the mod creator via PM or other such method of communication.

[Adonis]

Hangar. Love the schemes and badges, as usual. One problem I'm running into, and it's probably been addressed, but I can't seem to find the post, is being able to create different Chaos schemes (quartered, halved, etc.). Seems the option to do so isn't available, since I was trying to create some of my own based on the other schemes found on Lexicanum (hint hint ).

[Shuma]

"Update 15

Thanks to Shuma, quartered schemes are now available to Chaos. The colour mapping has been changed somewhat, so schemes made with Shumas mod installed will look odd untill you fix them."

"Adds an additional SM pattern, which can be used by editing one of the pre set schemes contained in the mod."

In other words, you have to select the existing chaos legion that uses the quartered scheme in the mod on the army painter and then copy it to make your own.

[Adonis]

Seems that the Sons of Malice are the only ones who use a quartered scheme.

I suppose two more chapters that use the other two schemes could come down the line in due time.

[Leondegrance]

I'm having trouble making this work. I think its because I don't have my Armypainter.usc file in my dow2 folder, but where do I find that file? I can't find it anywhere. Am I supposed to enter anything into "set launch options" to activate? Thanks in advance!

[Terramotus]

Hangar 8 - Amazing mod. I don't know why Relic didn't do something more like this. They should...

Also, is there any particular reason why you didn't switch colors 2 and 3's places in the chaos pattern so that chaos armies look similar to what they should to people not running the mod. As it is, other players often look weird to me and I'm sure vice versa. I noticed it originally in the campaign when the Black Legion looked funny. I think it would overall improve the mod.

I'm considering attempting to mod it around myself, but I'm not exactly sure where to start and was wondering if you had any plans in this regard. I made another mod for my own system to colorfix the default chaos legions (and change the DLC colors at the same time) so they look right to me when others are using them. I'm a novice modder DoW2, but I've been around the block a few times with modding in general.

EDIT: is that functionality in the DDS files?

[ranclaw]

Everyone should use this mod..

keep up the good work as always your the best

[AveImperator]

Hey Hangar, would it be possible for you to convert the badges in this mod to 256x256 pngs? That way, everyone could see them. I would understand if it would be too much work but I'd enjoy having others see it without having to download as well.

[Terramotus]

Just a heads-up... it looks like the TC Mod makes the new Death Korps DLC not show up at all. All the other DLC works fine - just not Death Korps.

[Lleman]

Potentially elucidated:

Well, nothing solved re. the TC mod though. I guess it's all going to need a rework like what happened with the DA DLC.

[Promythyus]

Simple fix, the krieg paints ("Krieg Grey", "Krieg Blue") and badge ("IG_DeathKorps") need to be added to armypaintercolours.lua

For the mean time, you can get a fixed TC_Mod.sga here. I'll PM h8 about it and hopefully he'll do an official fix (or whatever he particularly wants to do, haha). Blah blah copyright blah hangar'8s, gamesworkshop's blah blah don't do bad shit with it blah.

Stick it in retri/GameAssets/Mods/

[trintong]

Bless your spirit. It work !

[Existor]

Installed it. Works great, but after installing this mod, badges are dissapeared from DLC army color-schemes.

[Makreig]

hey, loving this mod, it really opens up options

but for some reason, with this mod i can't seem to use most of shuma's helmets on the space marines.

not entirely sure if its coz of this mod or not coz i got this mod just before getting the helmets, but as far as i can tell i have installed both correctly.
the only other mods i have on here are chaos and ork helmet mods from shuma, which are all working fine.

EDIT: Never Mind, found a retri-updated version

[dr.mario89]

I just recently noticed that the Word Bearers dlc is affected (in a minor way) by the mod the same way the default chaos color schemes are. I doubt it will be able to be fixed without screwing up the new chaos schemes and patterns implemented in this mod though. But like I said, it's not that big of a deal and not really noticeable while in a game so it's nothing to really worry about.

[Piotrekhood]

Is there any chance that of making scheme of unusual eldar craftworlds like Mymeara in common future?

[theredsunrising]

had anyone had the issues of the Death Korps disappearing after the mod is installed?

[Floodsamurai]

I know this is years later...how can you use this mod in campaign mode, it only seems to work in last stand and multiplayer?

[Nullist]

Is it possible to add customisation of DLC badges to this mod? Or could someone please provide a guide how?

The Krieg badge is very restrictive for such an otherwise awesome and color changeable Krieg unit.

Thanks in advance!

[uberminion]

I tried the link for the fixed TC_Mod.sga by Promythyus by the link is dead. does anyone have a copy of this file? Thanks in advance
