ATTENTION Ultimate Apocalypse Fans!!!!!!
The UA Team is recruiting Play Testers.
As most of you will already know, there is a private version of the Ultimate Apocalypse in the works - the Alpha mod project. That being said, this version includes content that far exceeds what most of us would expect.
And this HUGE endeavour needs HEAVY and SERIOUS testing - it is a task that requires a concrete TEAM of testers...
What it takes to apply for a playtester:
The task of playtesting UA is something that you should NOT tread lightly. While exciting, it is also taxing to playtest UA - especially the Grand Release. And at the current state of mod maturity, we require only good testers. Thus, you will definitely need:
1] Drive, Dignity and Discretion (the three Ds).
2] Skill. At his point, inadequate skill will stall (instead of accelerating) the project development, resulting in delaying its release.
3] Lots of Free Time. There are MANY things that require careful testing.
All community brothers out there, who consider yourselves worthy AND willing to HONESTLY assist our goal, please, do apply!
What you must do:
1] Playtest the current public version (1.62.62) and prepare a bugs list. The "optimum playtesting performance" would be to test every single race... In any case, the lengthier the bug list, the better chances to become a fellow playtester!!!
2] PM the buglist to me directly (Cylarne is TOO preoccupied performing his coding magic - so I will be at your service for the time being!)
3] Wait to be PMed back!!! (We have a testing chart to grade playtesters, so if your buglist is adequate... WELCOME TO THE TEAM!!!)
Last but NOT least
We respect the community and we want to provide a quality mod, brothers. This is our sincere intention. We would be happy if we all share the same intention!
Thank you for your cooperation! Please volunteer!
EDIT:
Guys, I have two more things to point out....
-It would be great if you use Point Form for the buglist!
-Adequate use of the English language, is DEFINITELY a welcomed trait!

-In search of Papasmurf...
Can I get a deadline on that buglist?
I have exams until the 29th, but after that I'm free for about 3 months. I would love to help you with testing the mod for bugs, but at the moment I am stretched for time, after the 29th however I will have time to burn (which at the moment is looking like a lot of gaming).
Basically, if the deadline is before the 29th, my list won't be my best standard, but if it's after by a good few days then it will be of a much better quality.
Are you fucking be kidding me? I'm modeller! I must will in this team!!!! FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!
If after this you do not take me in your team, you will never get more than 15 new models!
It's Bombard!
@Fatalen: There is no actual deadline on applying, brother. The sooner the better, of course!!!!!
Now...we are thinking on creating a solid playtesting team and we know that this will take some time...
And we hope this time NOT to exceed a moth, INCLUDING the time needed to evaluate the bug lists submitted.
@Hellboy: What you request is BEYOND my jurisdiction friend. I am only recruiting Play Testers here, so if you want to be part of the DESIGN team, you must PM Cylarne, directly.
By the way, VERY NICE ANIMATION!

Brothers, please.....
We do not want discord in our midst....
REMEMBER, we have an OPEN INVITATION for Play Tester members:
http://forums.relicnews.com/showthre...post1045367251
THIS IS OUR TOP PRIORITY NOW, in order to speed things up.
The Alpha project is VERY CLOSE to completion (Thanks to Cylarne and the team).
So please, if you want to see it PUBLIC, we need your PTing contribution....
I am sure we are ALL on the same side! And by quarrelling we can only achieve stalling...![]()
I do have lots of free time now, being unemployed in Spain is a very "popular" passtime. I will se if I can get you a bug list for the actual release. Since I do like this mod so much I might as well help with it.
That's the spirit!
Edit: I am currently unemployed too... It seems Spain suffers the same "issues" with Greece![]()
I'd really like to help, but lately I don't have any time for anything and (after seeing what others are able to do while everything I'm able to find UCS-errors are),
I don't think that I'd be helping much.. Maybe I'm able to help another time(translating if needed, someday maybe mapping..)
But, to say it out loud: What you guys do is just awesome! Thank you!
The machine is strong.
We have to seperate from the weak, accused flesh and replace it with the pure, holy metal.
We can only triumph with its durability, we can only win with the machine.
Punish the flesh, harden your mind and body.
Praise the machine!
Great animation by Hellboy! He could really add many cool stuff to this already cool mod.

Whoops, did I make you read this spoiler and the spoiler above? I'm so bad.
I like to personally reply to another person who seems to love this mod.
@Ads Dark Kru:
I say thank you and your welcome.As my first post on this forum I would like to say this.
I FRIKKIN' LOVE THIS MODDING TEAM, COMMUNITY AND THE OVERALL MOD ITSELF!
You lot are awesome and I'm almost on the verge of giving my left testical in your names.
I want to thank everyone who made the actual mods and those who combined it into this package that is the Ultimate apocalypse.
You have made a great game created years ago a joy to play again with friends & family.
My next comments are not me being ungrateful by any stretch of the imagination but rather pointing out a few things from my own perspective after testing.
I wish to provide both feedback and show my thanks in what I believe to be general queries and constructive criticism to further this mod on its road to perfection.
1. I've heard you are integrating the Dark Prophecy mod into this package - Can you confirm this?
2. Will there be further balancing in later releases as I find the necrons and their multi-Monolith Summoning to be over powered whilst the Orks army capabilities limited due to their WAAAGH resource which I'd think should be removed.
3. Initially I had problems with LAN but the latest release has ammended this issues.
Will there be more simplistic installation requirements on future releases?
1. No, until the Grand Release for sure.
2. yes
3. PsykoTenshi replied perfectly to your question.
@demetrius: Yeah man, I would really appreciate it if you stop making new models and actually put them in game.I would be honored to use these! Same with Hellboy's stuff.
He's already fancy.Originally Posted by paradamed
Not in 1.62.62, but just uh... heh heh, patience.
And yes people, please do come into our lair of the Alpha mod. :O

id join the testing but a)i dont have much time (only evenings during the week as of right now) and b) im not good with understanding what makes a unit balanced![]()
Hello guys just doing this to inform you that me and my friends found a bug while playing this great mod
(when a tau player has a drone squad they have the option to deep strike from the tau cadre headquarters ok when they attempt to do this, the game crashes for everyonejust letting you know..
----------
@UA team
have you given any consideration towards changing the nid's commander unit from a brood lord to a Hive tyrant as it is more fitting as a "commander"?
#5568
I am an Iron Warrior! Iron Within, Iron Without!
OMG! UA Alpha testers, confirm this. You, you there, think about joining the testing team.(when a tau player has a drone squad they have the option to deep strike from the tau cadre headquarters ok when they attempt to do this, the game crashes for everyone just letting you know..
It does make sense, I'll see about it.have you given any consideration towards changing the nid's commander unit from a brood lord to a Hive tyrant as it is more fitting as a "commander"?
i had a question and i didnt know if it was my apocalypse mod or my steam, but when i open my ss and attempt to play my apoc mod, my game will close NOT CRASH it will close it does this every now and then...is this the mod or my steam? O_o
@ Arkagunner328: Ok I am confused.
How does the game close on its own and not crashing in the process?
Also, by you saying "every now and then" I assume you mean it only happens some times, and not every time.
If I told you what it is right now, I'd be making it up, because there's practically no way to know with this little info. Anything I told you now would be a mere guess.
To discard/confirm UA as the cause of this odd issue, try other mod and see what happens.
If you're getting ErrorLog(s) .txt files then it's either crashes or program malfunction when it closes.
@ Cylarne: This lines I got on my warnings.log after investigating the tau deepstrike crash may hint you to the problem and to why it didn't happen on the ALPHA.
14:48:59.09 Can't spawn deepstrike entity with name orca_titan_deepstrike
14:48:59.09 -- FATAL EXIT --
14:48:59.09 deepstrikeextinfo.c/179:!
Also, I second the Hive tyrant being the primary commander for the nids. Though if being the primary commander is added to his incredible toughness (that can be a very deadly combination with the heroes win condition) it should be balanced properly as well.
I will take this chance to complain about the "fightin' juice"-like ability many tyranids have. They absorb stuff that'd bring down titans and for several seconds :I (until the effect wears off).

a second hive tyrant....????
I vote better for the tyranid Swarmlord as commander unit.
Hehehe!! It is an expression that means that he "seconds" (parallels) his thoughts.a second hive tyrant....????
In other words, Brother Tenshi agrees (with lootedcarnifex) for the Hive Tyrant to be the primary commander....
On the other hand, I would like to keep it the way the Tyranid Team has is....
I think these guys have made their research!
It does likely make sense from a Lore point of view, provided you keep the hive tyrant stronger. Genestealer Cults tend to make up the first wave after all, holding down the fort and causing chaos until the true invasion begins. Heck, half the time they are the ones that start it, sending that big old psychic beacon revealing the location of munchies.
Attach me in your comand and I allow use my model. Imperator, Ordinatus, Triolith, meabbattoir, obelisk, chaos imperator, manta tau, tigershark tau.
You know what? Nah, I like the things as is in commander style for the Tyranids. I like the idea, it's just, not WORTH IT. ^^ Trust me, it's only getting the Hive Tyrant earlier, pretty much it, then balancing him out, making him weaker in the beginning then giving him full strength... no thanks, too much work; too little work, but lazy I am to get new icons.RT2 is currently absent, and I have the most icons I can get until he comes back.
@Tenshi, good. I still question though why warriors can garrison in that HQ then? Not so sure. But I won't get a new patch out until I see further donations.
@Hellboy: JUST PM me dood.
You better work fast, I turn 18 this weekendBut I won't get a new patch out until I see further donations.![]()
Hello again brothers!
The next Internal Alpha Apocalypse is about to be ready for the Alpha team, and we need more men!!!
As I said, there is a PLETHORA of goodies to be tested, and we currently have a small playtesting team... (compared to the TASK at hand, that is!)
So far our brother Green Tide is the ONLY person VERY CLOSE to becoming our fellow tester in the ALPHA project !!
(@Green Tide: You preformed EXCELLENTLY man!! All I need to do is ask for Cylarne's approval - and then, WELCOME ABOARD!!)
So guys, we will need a couple more CAPABLE testers to "complete" our Playtesting team.
Remember, in order for the Alpha to become openly available SOONER, we need your playtesting contribution.
For those of you who MISSED our "invitation" and want to join us, please read this:
http://forums.relicnews.com/showthre...post1045367251
Brothers,
...due to MAJOR rig upgrade*, I will not be available for a while.
For all wannabe ALPHA Testers, this is your time to prepare buglists!
Hopefully, everything will "back up" in three or four days for me.
... and I would be VERY PLEASED to see my PM box "filled" with a couple of SERIOUS applications (like Green Tide's)!
See you soon
@Cylarne: Commander, I hope we meet tonight on SKYPE, to coordinate our "battle tactics"!

Who is this hellboy guy anyway?
I saw something about Cylarne telling him to stop posting. And now he's posting what look like 404's or invalid pics and posting a bunch of troll faces.
Is this guy on the UA team or just some butthurt troll because the UA mod is good?
Hellboy i was hoping for your models to be included in this awesome mod, now however you have shown yourself to be an arrogant, egotistical narrow minded little troll. If you are so AWESOME then make a mod yourself and quit spamming this topic.
Cylarne and the rest of the UA mod team keep up the brilliant work you are doing
Please stop this hell boy and show some class; at this rate UA will just decide that dealing with you is no longer worth it and just make the same content/models that you have been posting so far
*sees posts #5581 and #5584* ... Hellboy, dude. If you EVER want your models in the UA mod, that's the wrong move to make. Just sayin'
Hellboy, I recomend You to stop. you could be banned permanently.
Psyko is telling the true, if you ever want your models in the UA mod You would have asked in a good way.
but you're doing wrong... you will not go far with trolling
Hohoh so goood. Okey i'm satisfied with it!
Ok that fixed my trolling i show anim new Deathmarks, Why he's push use fist, but no weapon I says it's just test anim for that find any error when i skinning my model. But test anim will good and i want add fuel to the fire.
People! just ignore hellboy, I guess Gorb will take care of him when he sees his.....attention whoreness?
@Gambit, good luck with everything! X3 I would love to participate but I wont be able since on vacations I will be working (New car here I go!! *w*)
@Hellboy: I'll tell you what, Daniel. I'll let you post your little fun on this thread and I will not deal with your troll posts (since there are 112 freaking pages already anyways); completely let it go.However, in order for me to do this, and tell the moderators to let you go (Until I become annoyed again), you must not post one more additional pointless post but your work in one single post I can link to, hand over the Tau Manta so I may use your work like you wanted anyways, let me use your Tau Manta, have me code it and put it in the UA mod for the Grand Release with full permissions to use it for the GR, you must not scam me, and furthermore apologize for your actions. Oh and I will be crediting you for your work, btw.
Or not... your choice.
If you do all of those, I'll inform the moderators to freely ignore you, until you annoy me again with pointlessness. Otherwise, I'm going to have to report you, and this time Gorb might take action.
I also post here because you ignore all of my PMs I sent you, so hopefully you are mature enough to recognize this and perhaps come into an agreement? This is your last message from me until you prove yourself legit.Originally Posted by Gorb
regards, Cylarne.
so is there gonna be another patch before the GR or...?
@cylarne y just take the manta? y not ask for it all? :P
Have you considered having the Renegade mod as another race like with the Tyranids/Inquisition, or at least incorporating elements of it?
forums . relicnews . com / showthread.php?266351-Renegade-Guard-race
@Arkagunner That would a) be stealing the models, since he didn't have permission and B) I think its impossible because he hasn't shared anything that the data for them can be extracted from.
I mean, I'd love to see a Manta in myself (avid Tau player and all) but there are certain rules and all that which need to be followed.
@The Team. Is there any particular balance reason why Crisis suits and such are all Monats or?
@Bigwall. I'm not sure it would play different enough to justify it being a completely new race, rather then a variation of either imperial guard or Chaos. Especially since there are currently quite a few races sharing titans and such at this time.
"Monats" being? I did a quick (but extensive) search and it didn't yield any relevant results. The word doesn't ring any bells either. I read a recent comment on UA's Mod DB page about Tau battlesuits being OP in early game, maybe you meant that? (I very rarely play as Tau)
Oh right. Not everyone knows the terminology. Crisis and other battlesuits are referred to as Monats when working alone in teams of one.
i meant why ask only for the manta? why not make it one of the terms that he gets it ALL?
Because its always good to set a manageable goal, rather then one that might be considered shooting too high. Well that and Tau need the Manta far more then Imperials need more shiny toys. I mean, how many more Titans do Imperials need. Well Titans that aren't Sisters of Battle/Witch Hunters anyway. Personally I think they should be fused with IDH but meh, that''s just because I want the Bolter Bitches showing the grey knights how a real army deals with corruption.
@Sucal: That is of course, if there are any SOBs left, after what they've been through. Khornate Knights (one reason why the mod shouldn't be fused with IDH), Necrons, Space Wolves, corruption, Imperial Guard etc, etc..
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.
All is dust...
@Godlike_Power So THATS why people hate the aircraft I see I see....
lol Kornate knights
only matt ward could make something up that makes even less sense than Mass effect 3's ending
Personally I find it hilarious when you find a YOU BETRAYED THE LAW! vid, almost all feature EA/Bioware in there. However that's not important.
How goes the Necrons? (Quite possibly the best one Ward's written yet after you get over the whole TOMB KINGS...IN SPAAAACE! thing.) I'm rather enjoying myself watching for pics to pop up on here. So this prompts a question:
Will there be Doom Scythes/Night Scythes?
