[CR] Wrath of the Blood Ravens mod

[Defenseplayer]

me too and i think it's becuase the new models from shuma.

but the fix is to have them at high but it's anyoing becuase it can easy cause crash for weak pc

[Joekid13]

yea so all i can say is if u got a weak pc and wanna play this mod then i suggest either getting a gaming computer or just upgrade ur current one i suggest upgrading cos its cheaper than buying a whole new one me and defenseplayer here got off real easy for this sorta stuff didnt we bud

[AzazelHereticus]

Well...i dont have a TOP PC but i can play with the 2.9 with ultra graph. with a few lag....so i dont think everyone who want to play this mod needs a NASA PC
just....try not to blow up your home!!! XD

[Joekid13]

oh dont worry its not like i placed time bombs around my house or anything lol but ya u donr need a nasa pc just to play a game well maybe but who knows

[Defenseplayer]

well my pc is now a old pc for games but i can't upgrade it becuase it's a laptop... only desktop pc can upgrade. but it can still run the game whiout problems even whit the model at high

Tarkus is far, far too strong. Cyrus could stand with some improvement. Some of the squads should be smaller in my opinion.

Thank you for the mod, it is a lot of fun.

[Defenseplayer]

i not think he's too strong in the low levels.

but yes cyrus is a bit weak

[Rytlock]

I wouldn't say that Cyrus is weak. just boring. equip him with a stun grenade and a demolition charge and he will be more effective than anyone, but as you all know, it's much more fun to just take Avitus and fire away.

what the? multi-post? how did that happen?

[Necron0398]

After trying to use Cyrus a bit more, I've got more specified suggestions.

From what I've seen he has 5 weapons he can use. Bolters and Plasma Guns are boring, and usually go on Tarkus. His Sniper rifle is good, but the other squad's weapons usually fulfill whatever job his should, and faster. His grenade launcher is amazing, and is probably the best weapon he has. The weapons that are left, the flamer and shotgun, have this problem where they require Cyrus to get in close. Cyrus cannot get close; he is torn apart very quickly. I think the grenade launcher is best for him because it allows him to stay out of the way and deals massive AOE damage.

In short, I would decrease the power of the grenade launcher a bit (each squaddie fires 2 nades a shot, that's insane) and increase his durability. As is, it's hard to use his shotgun or flamer.

Tarkus needs to lose some squad members or have his power decreased. I can solo most levels with him.

[AzazelHereticus]

Guys...u know that Cyrus is a Scout?? right??....Not a damned Devastator,and the grenade Launcher(good for nothing),Shotgun(shortRanged),bolter,plasma,flamer(useless) ....SNIPER RULEZZ,give him the Epic Sniper with 100% knockback and noone can stop him well maybe Tanks and Vehicles...btw i killed the Chaos Lord Araghast with that strategy,and it was DAMNED COOOOL.(Araghast cant even stand up....well he can...if i let him ).....so i say dont make Cyrus a TERMINATOR SQUAD,becouse Cyrus is a good Stealth Hit & run character,and not a "kill them even if i die in the process" unit like Avitus..well thats all.
Deus keep up the awesome work...as always.

[Defenseplayer]

also the remote charge is still not working....... i hate it not work

[Ebannaw]

Hey, I was just wondering if the 2.9 version of this mod works in coop mode. A buddy of mine and I are trying to get it running but it keeps saying we have different data. I've reinstalled CR completely and he is doing the same right now, stay tuned.

[Defenseplayer]

umm? you have downloaded the same version? and it does whit co-op.

but try install the mod agian

[Rytlock]

How's the mod coming along? Are you still working on it, or have you moved on to Space Marine?

[Xmark/Shocker10]

PLEASE Put a more detailed description and a in depth way on how to get the mod to work. It's all scattered and read all the pages but every way to install it just conflicts with eachother so please please either add a very detailed way on how to install it at this page or at page 1, (think u can edit it.)

----------

WAIT do u need to install all of the versions??? and yeah what i said above quicker response would be nice, like directories and stuffs and do u need Zipit? and stuffs?

[Defenseplayer]

you need to install the last version.. extract the files from the mod to where it's installed DOW2 not dow2 retri the module also (make a back up of the old so you can swtich and then don't need to check the files), also it should work in co-op.. the last two version 2.8 and 2.9 just got some bug fix and new models there broke the texture.. somehow i don't know how but i spotted it easy. if you not want to get the error but want to play 2.9 then switch models to high in game your co-op partner also then the game should not crash.. if it do all time then take 2.7 and then install that and then make it to low.

add me on steam if you want more.. look at my name at the steam icon and you can easy find me. i use my steam as homepage so i can help you easy.

(p.s i'm on almost every day.)

[Joekid13]

tru dat defense i see ya all the time since we're buds on steam so if ya want advice i can give all ya peeps out there some but i only know very little so defenseplayer is your best option out of the 2 of us really

[Xmark/Shocker10]

How to mod .module file? and among other stuff can u please anyone just even put a simple post that says what else i gotta do for this? added -dev to the .exe of dow2 have the mod and dawn of war 2 main folder. Copied Module file, but i dont see how to mod it as it says in part 2 of installation at begining

[Defenseplayer]

ummm? what you mean? when you install the game you just need to run it NORMAL no -dev or something just as normal launch, if you want some more help then add and wrtie to me at this link http://steamcommunity.com/id/Trekant

[Defenseplayer]

deus? are you still working on this mod?

[DeusImperator]

Due to personal business (Mental health troubles, biological health troubles, and university, plus a total loss how to make the dreadnought weapons animate in game, and general lack of creativity), the mod is semi on hold for now.

I have made a mod for Space marine, but that's it.

I will still work on this mod when there is time and energy I can put into it.

If anybody knows how to animate the dreadnough weapons properly how to rig them to fire, please tell me.

I'm not sure what could I do for flamer...perhaps give them to the whole squad, that way if attacking from stealth they could overwhelm the enemy. Shotguns are supposed to fire from stealh, knocking back heavy weapon teams and light infantry.

Frankly, I do not think Tarkus is too powerful, he just seems like a less shooty version of Avitus to me.
HorusHeretic also figured out a way for individual squad upgrades...but I can not understand the code, its too complicated.

Any help from people would be appreciated I will work on regardless, but the mod would go faster with help.

Even if you can not help in the modding, please make a long post of your grievances, wishes, bug reports, etc in one big post. One of my disorders is mild amnesia, I can not remember every post.

Thank you for your understanding.

[DeusImperator]

Damn the Dreadnought weapons are hard to code....they show no firing effects, and the left ones do not show correctly.

[Defenseplayer]

we understand and you are still a great modder no matter what

[DeusImperator]

Thanks...I may not be able to do the mortis, tough the Right hand Plasma cannon is working for the Dreadnoughts, which is at least some good sign.

Also, all Assault, Tactical, Sternguard and Vanguard marines will be fully individualised with their own looks. (halfway done).

[Rytlock]

I'm sorry to hear about your problems. Hope you get well soon.

[Gorb]

Glad to hear you're still around Deus, and I wish you the best of luck in recovery IRL.

[DeusImperator]

Thanks Gorb

I really wish I had more time and energy, and more skill. Do you think its acceptable to forum rules to ask for help about the animations issue?

[Orion Nexus]

Evening gentlemen. I'm new here, so I was wondering if you all could help me out.

I installed this mod, as per the instructions. I even installed Project Warhammer. Except, when I started the game, nothing had changed about it. Did I miss something? Was I not supposed to use dev mode? Should I have installed Project Warhammer all the way? Because I just took pw_c.sga from it.

[Gorb]

Thanks Gorb

Speaking of amnesia, I never saw (or remembered seeing) this post. Apologies, it's perfectly acceptable to ask about a particular modding issue. If you want the help of a specific forum member, however, Private Messages are the way to go

[Bloodravage]

I had been working on the weapons for the dread up until a week ago when my system crashed. Things are up and running, let me know if i can be of assistance.

[ozzakaboom]

FYI the megaupload links dont work (FBI legal stuff blah blah blah) can you please reupload to somewhere else?

[Raygereio]

From the previous page:

[DeusImperator]

Those Nurgle licking FBI agents.... messing around honest modder business.

I'll upload it this week. My exams are due to be done on Wednesday. After that I'll resume the work and upload stuff.

Thanks Gorb, I'll remember that.

Bloodravage, I'll give you free reign to poke around the mod I'll upload and see what you can do as soon as I can upload it, I thank you for any assistance.

Thanks for the support folks!

[kattwuver229]

[DeusImperator]

http://www.crocko.com/C7996C3BC7DE43..._Ravens_295.7z

Here is the latest mod . And I'm against Sopa, its way too abusible.


Its semi finished with the Dreadnought MP parts not really working. If you feel like you can fix the dreads, feel free

Never mind its not working.....without megaupload what will I do...oh how much I hate the FBI.

[Defenseplayer]

it say i need preium to download it

[DeusImperator]

I Know....how on Earth will i find another site that lets me upload big files for free so that I can share them with the community?

[laszers]

go to rapid share

[Predalienator]

Or split them into parts and upload it to Mediafire

[Rytlock]

Deus, does this new patch do anything for the campaign?

[Defenseplayer]

Gamefront, you can upload big files for free there

[DeusImperator]

http://www.gamefront.com/files/21249...+Ravens+295.7z

I really hope this one works...

[cwc5407]

Deus, it works.

what does this version 295.7z changes from previous versions 295?

[Orion Nexus]

And I've encountered a problem. Deus, when you confront Galan on Calderis, the game keeps freezes and the words Fatal Scar Error appear on the screen. I installed the game per your instructions. I ran it in dev mode as well.

[Defenseplayer]

you need all your heros at him. for fix it you need to have all your squad.

[Orion Nexus]

So, have them all charge at Galan in the same instance? Okay, I'll give it a try.

[Rytlock]

@Orion Nexus I have the same problem on that map. It's also quite impossible to win the map without gaining any corruption, since the scouts don't run away when you destroy the generators.
