Ultimate Apocalypse - 1.72.5 Released!

[Rytlock]

I'm not sure if you can call it a bug, but the Warboss's Mega Blasta don't have a hit effect if it fires on units that are in negative cover. oh, and the two ork minefields both have the same hotkey: i. or was it l?

[Dante551]

it was I rytlock

[EnderWiggin007]

I am sorry to see you leave Krronus. I don't know you but the founder of mods are always important people.

So as I started typing this I came up with more then one question.

A) What is the most current version of the mod ? I have patched to version 1.62.51 but in the game manager there are like three options (can't remember exactly) but there is the "actual" option and then like "XP2 new races" or something to that effect. Anyway my friends and I are kinda confused on what is the most current version or what one we should be playing with to see all the new things.

B) I was also curious who i should talk to regarding creating a Steam/Xfire group. Some RL friends and I have been playing via hamachi and was wondering if any of you wish to join us.

[Dante551]

1.62.51 is the latest version the XP2 new races allows you to play with the tyranids and the IDH or was it Witch hunters so you have the latest version just depends on what you want to play with or without

[Setsuna269]

Here,new Tyranids air unit:Gargoyle!



I think this unit will solve their problem with anti air units.

[Lleman]

Just asking, whose creation is that?

[Setsuna269]

To brother Lleman:Those pictures is from Tyranids mod forum and it creator is brother Ministry.Here the source:

[Cosmocrat]

@ WhiteMetalSea: I think i was able to sort the problem out for you on moddb ^^. And just to add here: As you have the german version of DoW (As me too ^^) you'll have to copy the files from "english" locale folder in the "new races" mod folder into the "german" locale folder. This avoids you having trouble with the .ucs text files resulting in a "$18045070" descryption for every new unit.

@ Setsuna269: Well done miss! So it looks like there's some movement in the Tyranids mod overall .

@ EnderWiggin007: The New Races are for, well... the new races! These are tyranids and daemonhunters and you'll naturally need to download these in oder to play the "New Races" Sub Mod. The Actual is the BASIC/Vanilla Mod which is VITAL for ALL other XPs to play. The XP 1 removes all limits and let you build everyhting you desire with no bounds to unleash total destruction! XP 2 adds the New Races and XP 3 well... is not released yet .
But if you play with friends please be so kind and post the replays (Links to Replays most common) here in the forums so that we the Devs can check gameplay with humanplayers while having some popcorn (replays are way more interesing than TV in my opinion!)

@ All: Have a nice Day of course!

[thewildgo]

Somehow i cant get the greater daemon while playing chaos any idea why?

[Apocalypse]

@Enderwiggin007

I think what you mean, is that when you go into the "activate mod/game" option you see all these options? well what you have to do is simply activate "new races" version. This will give you the full apocalypse mod and the new races to play with and you will see all entities from the latest version of the mod present. As Cosmocrat poited out, dont forget to install the packs for these "races" since they are seperate mods.

[Dante551]

@thewild which sect did you choose

[thewildgo]

i try with korne slaness and undivided.... nor korne... or unclean couldbe selected

[Dante551]

does it say it needs anything??

[Hydraxon]

OMG!!!!!KKRONUS IS GONE!!!!!!AND I JUST KNOW THIS!!!!!Time for me to mourn for the lost of our founding father

[kirbanator]

Question if you put the steel legion in what would the relic unit be? what about the fortress of arrogance?

[Dante551]

Answer: the steel legion i believe was agreed upon awhile ago that it is not going to be put in the game at all

[kirbanator]

Ow it said on the first page under , very important information about the mod, and sub tab , new races, "that the steel legion will be worked on in the far future". Exact words.

[Dante551]

havent been to the first page in a long time so i wouldnt know i would think that the rest of the team who is doing most of the work will think up ideas when they get there as they have a long time to go

[demetrius]

[Dante551]

cant wait to use that thing

[Setsuna269]

Woa!Hellstorm Cannon!

[kirbanator]

I was just reading Gunheads and finished it so i thought i would give out the idea before i forget it.

[Setsuna269]

Um...I have heard that there are a Witch Hunters Titans called "WatchTower"...is that true?Because I can't find any picture of it but there a rules for it and it said that WatchTower are simply a Warlord Titan with Cathedral on the top.

[Lleman]

Nothing the likes of unless emerged like a gaseous corpse from the bog lands of the infertile imagination of some fan somewhere.
The only Warlord class titan with a daft cathedral on top of the carapace is the fabled Psi-Titan of the Divisio Telepathica.

[Dante551]

which would be awesome to see

[Setsuna269]

Thank you,brother Lleman!Now I get it with your key words "Psi-Titan".

[Whiteshield]

omg how the hell are you gonna field that beast of a titan? lol

PS Gargoyle pic out? Did the 'Nid mod team finally release a release date for their mod?

[ProfMan96]

@Whiteshield : Do not underestimate the Apocalypse's apocalyptic-ness

@Cylarne/Cosmocrat : I'm curious, am I supposed to use the Team release of the mod or the hush-hush release that includes XP3? I am soooo lost what does XP3 do anyways? It seems...."normal". Oh and shall I forward the team release to my testers?

@Kirbanator : Steel Legion race will be included in the far future. However, the main reason they weren't included in XP2 (public release) was due to the fact that "most" fans were NOT interested in seeing the Steel Legion in action. Although, my motto is 'the more the merrier'

@demetrius : I am digging that ridiculously monstrous titan

[Apocalypse]

That Titans a beast, I dont know how it will be balanced or fit the maps for that matter unless its no bigger than the warhound.

[Dante551]

confusion ensues

----------

as everyone tries to figure out exactly what is going on

[Cylarne_04]

Profman, Cosmo, we need to talk.

Oh and shall I forward the team release to my testers?

Only to Dante, Pursanator and Hydraxon. They seem to be doing testing fine. "Train" Setsuna in testing 1.62.51, show her around with what we expect from beta testers. Apocalypse will be added along with uh... that other dude who wanted to join. Show them around to.

Basically do the usual stuff you do.

i try with korne slaness and undivided.... nor korne... or unclean couldbe selected

Try Nurgle or Slaanesh.

@demetrius: awesome, SLICK!

[Dante551]

dont want to seem like a smart*** Cylarne but you just did

----------

sorry if that didnt help

[Pursanator]

@cylarne - Don't worry man its going to be ok Take a deep breath and we shall all continue as if nothing happened.

So we are all ok! Hope everyone is alright on this thread, keep up the good word and pm me if you need anything

Cheers

[Lleman]

New sig inboud: 'Ultimately I am apoplectic'.
More seriously, it's not like your minions had revealed anything to the plebe that they didn't already know... viz. that there is some XP3 planned or lying around.

Just out of curiosity now, how's the dreadknight being used now? Has anyone baked a map for a potential lo-poly model out of it, and if so what does it look like once processed?

[Gorb]

Hey Cylarne, moderator note. If you have grievance with mod team members, keep it to PM

I don't particularly care if this is an elaborate publicity stunt or you losing your temper - such an explosion should not be conducted "in-thread".

[Tomb Deathwing]

Soul Censored :Soul: :iconSoul:

just testing I want use emoticon...

I want to use emoticon, how can I add them ?

[Dante551]

dont know if this site has any

[Whiteshield]

@Cylarne - been out for quite a while playing DOW2. any new stuff around? and by that I mean new models.

[Cylarne_04]

First of all I like to apologize for acting very... apoplectically (if that is a word) earlier. The reason for this was freaking out after the mention of my hush hush top secret plans.

@Cosmocrat and Profman: Hopefully you didn't read that, lol. My apologies to you.

@Whiteshield: Yes sir, there is sir! XV9 Hazard Suit, Our very own Valkyrie Transport, Brass Scorpion, Shadow Super-heavy, DE Reaper, 3 other hush hush secret units of doom, + other figures from others. I'll be asking permission for those soon.

[ImperialShield]

Hello all

@Cylarne_04: whats the brass scorpion please?

@demetrius: which races are getting that big boy titan? will their be a chaos variant?

thanks guys please keep making this mod more awesome

[Apocalypse]

The brass scorpion:

http://www.ifelix.net/gamingblog/?tag=brass-scorpion


Its a powerful construct, like a huge defiler. It may become the Chaos Titan unit since it can apprently become a threat to Titans, Cylarne said that it can eat throguh Titans and it explodes in a massive death blast when it gets brought down. Of course it may be joined by a Chaos Titan later since I think some talk has been done on the subject of a Chaos Titan.

[demetrius]

@demetrius: which races are getting that big boy titan? will their be a chaos variant?

imperial guard,all races will have their own titan one day,the choas will have reaver titan i hope this

http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Warhamme...BODY-ONLY.html

i played with id,they need turets on requisition points and turets??of course not to mention more units.

[Whiteshield]

@Cylarne - so basically, they're ingame right now?.. the units I mean?

[Apocalypse]

Will the imperial guard have both the warhound and Warlord then?

WIll the space marines get a higher end Titan? I already thought that the Imperial guard were pretty fleshed out at both mid and late game since they have the trio of baneblades and the warhound. The Space marines land raiders are not quite up to their level imo.

[ProfMan96]

@Apocalypse : if it was up to me, I'd put the higher tier titans (warlord/reaver/whatever you wh40k nerds call them ) for the Space Marines. I agree with you, Land raiders can barely put up a fight against Baneblades....but they should keep the warhound though, cause its a "scout" titan.

[Cylarne_04]

@Apocalypse: I do not agree that the IG should get anything greater than a Warhound, I did even some research, so all in all, it would be Space Marines at least. I already have a game plan anyways.

@demetrius: I thought we planned for Space Marines to get rid of their Warhound at least? Otherwise, put a warlord in for the IG and not Space Marines, can get pretty... nonsense.

@Whiteshield: all but the Reaper.

[demetrius]

@demetrius: I thought we planned for Space Marines to get rid of their Warhound at least? Otherwise, put a warlord in for the IG and not Space Marines, can get pretty... nonsense.

ok it think warlord titan is sm titan by this picture

http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__...ce_Marines.jpg

here are the size of titans of course,i think we make it all the sam size

http://images.wikia.com/warhammer40k...Godengines.jpg


this is from dawn of coalescence,the most amazing textured unit what i sow for dow1,can dow textures be closer to excelent dow 2??can maps be retextured with higher details like in dow2??

http://imageshack.us/f/175/relic00066z.jpg/

[Cylarne_04]

The Warhound is the size of the Warlord's foot? OMG, I'm making bigger maps.

Edit: Three giant ones are in the making. Stay in touch within the map section of the mod too within a random day when I decide to release it. I'll rename the title, don't worry.

I do apologize though, my map making skills are... at beginner level, but I'll do the best I can to make them epic.

And I'll just post this pic underneath because I want to. Page 49, here we come.



PS: It's not from XP1. Oh and I love Kroot now. So expect them to be used more often whenever.

[mido.madara]
