Ultimate Apocalypse - 1.72.5 Released!

[Gambit]

Important Announcement:
Green Tide performed excellently in bughunting, and he is accepted as a member of the ALPHA playtesting team!!!
Welcome aboard brother!!!!


Note to all other "applicants" (you know who you are! )
Guys, SEND MORE BUGLISTS!!!


Note to all other wannabe ALPHA testers
Brothers, we need (perhaps a couple) more skilful members to complete the Alpha Playtesting team. The current team (including Green Tide) would possibly be able to handle the task at hand, but the needed time would be... unacceptable. If you want the Alpha Project to be out faster, you can always help.....

[Green Tide]

Thank you!
And well... right now I feel like I could test the entire Alpha myself, but hey, it's true, we need more manpower. So apply, people!

[Cylarne_04]

For those of you (demetrius and Hellboy) interrupting our testing team recruitment announcements with more pretty pictures not RELATED to the UA mod yet; stop!

Now if we can get things back on track, I request the minimal amount of non UA mod conversations or images to come at a hault. Thank you.

If the manta were added, how would work? DOW was never desigined for flying units and as a result, they are subject to pathfinding and get stuck in impassable terrain. Unless that problem has been sorted out.

Oh I got some good ideas. We hope to definitely get it in the UA mod at whatever cost. It is a priority for the Grand Release.

How goes the Necrons?

Lord Doofus (me) is actually wondering how Cosmocrat is doing?

And yes again people, please apply for testing the Alpha mod. You alone can make the mod better.

[ShasVa]

What is that sweet-ass tank thing in demetrius' post?

[Arkagunner328]

ok you know what? summer is almost here...what do i have to do to apply to join the testers again?

[Gambit]

@Arkagunner328: Just have a look at post 5553 from previous page:
http://forums.relicnews.com/showthre...post1045367251

I hope you have got what it takes to join us!

[Whiteshield]

Cylarne - well... seems like its been an eternity since I last modded. are the new titans out? the tau, dark eldar titans?

[Cylarne_04]

@Whiteshielderdoom: Nope, no major titans released yet but Warhounds re-hextured for everybody and the Arch Angel for the Sisters, my creation by RT2. I hope this helps.

Otherwise, Bomb Squigs, Renegades, Keeper of Secrets, Lord of Change, Arch Angel, new Warhounds, walls for most races, new turret for IDH, new Grey Knights by RT2, Necron Pylon texture, Grey Knight Psyker, Grey Knight Justicar, Grey Knight Champion, many icons, and FOK/POK stuff are ingame. Other than that, Grand Release stuff.

[lootedcarnifex]

Cylarne_04 can i ask a favor; can you please remove the purity seals on the Chaos warhounds please

[Cylarne_04]

? You mean, I can't.

----------



? You mean, I can't.

[darklordzx]

theses seals are not pure... they are Inpurity seals lol.
members of the Word Bearers blessed (or cursed) the Warhound with impure rites and rituals making it soon became possessed with daemons and other atrocities of the warp

the warhound needs to be more... chaotic :P

[Cylarne_04]

I know how Chaotic it needs to be, but we currently have nobody interested enough (Cosmocrat is slowly losing interest in modding) to help us at the moment to do up a perfect Chaos Warhound. Torzel is the only one at the moment, who can at least texture it to make it look Chaosy as possible. Which indeed he's almost there, the shine is gone along with a tainted dark color on the Warhound, blood is next, but this is all we can do, unless someone does up a simple Chaos Warhound that does not walk so stiff like the old one.

Yes, more modelers will do, we are very close on the Grand Release, Cosmo is not enough and not one modeler is interested in helping us for some odd reason.

[MaggotMaster]

You could probably simply set the texture area corresponding to the purity seals as black in the alpha layer of the base warhound texture, effectively making it invisibile.

[deathwatch78]

Hello, I have been modding for a few years. I can texture and I am very decent with corsix mod studio , I can hex edit and mod scar. code, also can do some fx work via hex editing. It's possible I could help you if you want. I have never released any thing to the public just to my friends,but they have moved on to different games but I am still loyal to dawn of war. In the next few weeks I might release some mods as long as i can get permission for some things.

----------

sorry forgot to mention, just hex edit the whm file to get rid of purity seals.

Son of a... bitch.

You're hearing from me again.

EDIT: Well, I mean I haven't seen your work yet.

If you want I could give my spin to the warhound, if the chaos gods dont mind.

Give me 3 days. If I do not contact you in three days, yell at me.

[GavinHeaneyXIII]

Has XP2 been released publicly yet?! I'm dying to give that reaver Titan a go at cleansing the planet! And the Tyranids Bio Titan! Keep up the great work on this massive effort my friends!

[Gambit]

Guys, THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS HAPPENING BEHIND THE SCENES!!!

I cannot say anything more (orelse, Cylarne will kick me hard ) but to all those still interested to see AND TEST the awesomeness of the ALPHA...

WE ARE STILL RECRUITING!!
You can still apply for Alpha playtesters.

This will help us all .

[deathwatch78]

Cylarne_04 cant post stuff for 6 more days joined 1 day ago on relic forums so i opened a photobucket account put some pics so you can see, will add more later its from the current mod I am working on I started last weekend. Dont know how to get you the link to check it out wont let me post it. Cheer's

[PsykoTenshi]

@ GavinHeaneyXIII: Since no one took the kindness of answering your question, I will.

I believe you're slightly confused. Don't you mean the Grand Release? That will include the Reaver titan and the Hierophant.
XP2 (now named 'New Races'), on the other hand, is an add-on included on the public release of the mod (currently released) which adds the Inquisition Daemonhunters and the Tyranids to the mod.

@ Everyone: (Clarification that never gets old) Since their assets can't be included within the UA mod for legal reasons and blah blah blah, you need to download and install the Inquisition mod and the Tyranids mod separately for XP2 to work.

A note on the Tyranids mod: Be sure to install the hotfix as well. To install it, save that page onto your Soulstorm directory and overwrite when asked.

[deathwatch78]

Cylarne_04
Just sent you email, will have some stuff for you tomorrow. cheers

[Cylarne_04]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I saw it. No, you cheers, cheers to you.

Master Tenshi, I would like you to inform Tyrantarmy to update your fix on MOD DB please? My time on Skype, mail, computers is very limited now due to school hours in the Summer, I demand the hotfix spread to many key points of the mod as possible. Thank you.

[deathwatch78]

Cylarne_04, hey just uploaded 3 pics on the warhound I started on a day ago, Going to start on the daemonic one just got of work just let me know if you dig the renagade one and I will continue if not I will scrap it. It is only 30 percent done. Later

[Cylarne_04]

Oh good, I'll check it out, thanks man. If there are anything else you request you want to work on, lemme know. I hope I replied to your mail ok?

And just in time to update.

Spoiler

RT2 is back! One version of warhound with Spikes...


30% done Warhound textures and hex n' tex by deathwatch78
I Need permission to post...

Deathwatch, to save you some time, would you like some of our stuff or do you prefer to do the entire thing on your own? We got useable spikes from RT2 and textures from Torzel.

Edit: I'll take both the Renegade AND Daemonic one.

[deathwatch78]

Hey That model by rt2 is pretty sweet, If you want to post some of my deathwatch or grey knights thats cool because I am done with them but I want to give a finished texture of the warhound. I will texture anything you want you sound like a cool cat.Hey quick ? Did you dig the battle scared armour of the tratior blood ravens I am thinking of adding that to all my work because who goes to battle in new armour. later

----------

Cylarne_04 just finished a renegade titan You can post that one and the other one thats 30 percent done if you want I am curious what people think. If they dont like it I will not continue with it cheers!

[Cylarne_04]

Roger roger.

However me thinks we can discuss everything over e-mail or PM for now on?

[GavinHeaneyXIII]

I know this is off topic but I found this hopeful modded a d he might have some skins or meshes that could be useful: http://forums.relicnews.com/showthre...(Large-Images)

[PsykoTenshi]

@ Everyone: In order to not make an purely offtopic post, I'll announce a feature on the Grand Release (wait Lord Cylarne, this is not a "spoiler"):

You likely have noticed frequent sync errors in online games on the UA mod (specially when things gets epic >:c).
Well, I have yet to confirm it on a 100%, but I dare to say that the age of sync failure in UA will be over with the Grand Release!

And that is just one of the staggering amount of new features it'll have...

P.S.: I was re-reading it and just noticed that this can be given to confusion. I meant that it'll be much more stable, but a "no sync error guarantee" is simply impossible. Just making sure I do not cause confusion.

[lootedcarnifex]

If i may make a suggestion the titanium wars mod has released a grot stompa unit; have you considered using it? at the very least you could use it as a model replacement of the deff dread that has only one shotta on it (the one meant to be driven by grots)

[Cylarne_04]

@Lootedcarnifex: It has actually been in the mod ever since December of 2011. No worries, it'll get in the Grand Release.

[Cylarne_04]

I might as well update here since I updated MOD DB with love.

Spoiler

And then applied to with Torzel's AND Deathwatch78's textures ^^^ =

Nom nom nom, Dark Elf food with green explosions!

[Sataman]

O.O

[thudmeizer]

HOLY MUTHA OF ALL THAT'S.. HOLY!

[darklordzx]

Better said... UNholy

[RMX]

love the Tomb Stalker

[lootedcarnifex]

dat "mouth"; finally a TRUE god machine

[Tomb Deathwing]

Cylarne : Sir?

for the G.R of apocalypse ...I really like to ask this.

As my repeat last statement....It will be possible the creation of Assault maps compatible with this mod....You with an AI or player against wave of enemies like assault of renegade maps. that's could be my last and only petition for you and the team , or wishlist if you can call it.

Because when i read the Daemon faction , I thought they will be perfect for those kind maps. you , partners against them

[Michael1980]

Yes, solve this puzzle, will ya?
http://postimage.org/image/t2axcssep/
(sort of like... it could have been a part of the UA mod)

[thudmeizer]

I....frothed.. over...

[Gambit]

(Hello Thud!!!!)

@Michael and Hellboy:
Very good model and textures guys!!!!
Now, Daniel, isn't it pity for such work to remain ..... an "orphan"?
I mean the only way for a model to become alive, is through a GOOD mod.
A titan, must MEET titans in combat!!!

Again, it's a pity things do not turn up...

P.S.: This is my personal opinion, it has nothing to do with the UA team.

[Cylarne_04]

@Michael: Yeah such a pity... boychaos's work not ever to be seen or honored in one of the best mods for DOW Soulstorm. Oh well.

Mess with the best, die like the rest!

Irony all in one, great job mate.

@Everyone: We are in dire need of more testers, no seriously, I don't want to delay the Grand Release. If you are up to the task, please see post #5553 in this thread. Thank you!

[Khorne_1984]

I think I've just found a little bug: when playing with Chaos, if I choose the Mark of Tzeench both the infantry cap and the vehicle cap reach only 45. I don't know if it was intentional to keep the caps that low with that mark...
