[MrChaos]

My god! Landspeeder Typhoon gonna rock the map with missiles.

[p0seidon]

well that LR crusader hasnt been released has it thud?

Falk has an complete model.
I have an complete crusader model.

But both aren't ingame (unless Falk has been very busy).

And if you have seen Falk's screenies then I will say wait.

More Screenshots!

Baal Predator



Yes i do have a checklist
- Devastator Squad
- Landspeeder Typhoon
- Command Squad
- Baal predator

Command Squad Models
- Banner Bearer
- Company Champion
- Veteran Sergeant

If i can get them done faster i might even throw in some extra models
- Tornado Landspeeder
- Radomized Space Marines
- Librarian in Terminator Armor
- Terminator Captain

One last thing very soon i'll release two single models
- Helmeted Veteran Sergeants
- Helmeted Commanders

I'm releasing them seperately coz maybe some people like the old one better.

Someones already doing LR Crusader and as for techmarines i just saw the model. kind of complex, i'll give it a shot, no promises though. Same goes for combat sevitors

[soldit]

wow this stuff is great. I wonder if any mod teams are using any of your stuff. Would save them a lot of time

[p0seidon]

The BAAL will be fluff-wise unusuable in the regular SM army butt will be great for people who can't wait till the BA mod comes out.

[soldit]

That swhat i'm saying. The BA mod should use this model unless they've already finished their own

[Stevocarty]

Great work medes love the land speeder , we probably would have asked to use this ball predator but stranger and compiler finished ours a while ago ,



we have just been waiting until almost all the models are complete before releasing an update to the BA mod which will include the baal, but any new models are a good thing, keep up the great work medes.

[Tyconius]

Cool stuff guys. Hopefully Relic will put a "customize your vehicle" mode if they should make Dow 2.

[p0seidon]

Pimp your Land Raider!!

Mine would have heavy flamers instead of heavy bolters and and black pearl paint and flames on it and some red bits so it will go faster

[Hands_of_Fate]

Medes, man are those nice.

If you could merge the 'twin' heavy bolter and 'twin' assault cannon into 'one barreled' versions (it always looked more like a special Ravenwing Commander vehicle rather than a regular one) and make the land speeder model use both missile launcher and assault cannon as upgrades, that would be just icing on the top! Making havy bolter upgrade into multi-melta and assault cannon into heavy flamer would finish this whole fast attack selection once and for all.

Keep up the good work!

[Typhoon GX]

Medes, I love you! Your skills of modeling are kickass, and your Landspeeder and Baal Pred are awsome.

Is there any chance someone will release a mini-mod using his models in the name of this great guy?

[Mirage Knight]

Any chance of seeing a Defiler with a twinlinked Lascannon upgrade?

Couple of other requests - Chaos Rhino with a comi-bolter mount, Hellhound with a hull mounted Heavy Bolter, Chimera with a hull mounted Heavy Bolter, Leman Russ with Lascannon upgrade replacing the front HB, and mobile support plats (including a Shadow Weaver) for Eldar

BTW, there seems to be a slight texture issue with the new Havoc weapons.There's pink tubing on the Lascannon and a pink ammo box for the Autocannon - mind you this works fine for an Emperor's Children army Btw, is there any chance of doing away with the demon head muzzle for the Havoc Autocannon? It makes it look a bit nose-heavy...I also had a suggestion for one of the none-horned CSM heads - a plume on the top like the Sluggas have.

Other than that, keep up the good work!

[Falk]

Falk has an complete (Crusader) model.
I have an complete crusader model.

But both aren't ingame (unless Falk has been very busy).

And if you have seen Falk's screenies then I will say wait.

Thanks^^
Mmh just to keep you updated, I've been very busy, but with life more than DoW modding. 'Been messing with the (many) idle animations and FXs set up from time to time, but finally it should soon be ready for shipment to Compiler hopefully.

Mmh nice Predator Baal
Must be pretty nasty at close/middle range. :num:
So there are two Baal Preds ? Arf XD

Hey Typhoon, it's Predator Baal, not Ball^^

[p0seidon]

Eh? Its Baal Predator not Predator Baal and No problem.

[newghost]

yo medes, for making a techmarine, how about chopping the enginseers backpack onto the marine and add a hi-tech bolter

to make it look really awesome, mirror the pack so it has four arms like here

http://us.games-workshop.com/games/4..._servitors.htm

but its just an idea

[medes]

i could give it a shot, but it's kind of hard since i don't have any upclose pics of those models.

Oh, about those veteran sergeants i said earlier. Looks like they turn out better than expected. so they'll be released in the pack as a veteran squad instead

[falcon command]

yo medes check your email lokl

[thudmeizer]

Closeup(s) of Techmarine:

Techmarine Closeup Galleries

Also..

Gun Servitor Gallery

Just download the images and zoom in as best you can: it'll at least spir you on in the right direction.

[falcon command]

rhx thud now my iron father(hint hint) will go easir wipee :mrpantha:

[ironclawed1]

Great work here, one request make the chainsaw attachments to the termies weapons more underslung rather then out to the side,shorten the arms a bit, at least the firing arm and put in a reaper auto cannon please it would just tie things together. once again great great work!

[falcon command]

lol 'll hint agin iron father! :heyhey:

[medes]

SS update

Veteran Squad




Not retextured yet though, could sure use default white helmets

They have force commander melee animations, so yes they can sync kill a BT.

[Typhoon GX]

Nice work there, but I don't like how the sholder pads are going through their necks or heads.

[medes]

i know, the previous icon bearers had that problem too.
Still can't find a way to fix it.
I'll try linking the pads to the clavice n see if it does anything

[soldit]

Please some mod team post here and let us know your using some of this stuff. Its like going to waste if only a small percentage of the community know how to edit and get this stuff wroking in game. The havocs and veterans need to be made available as some kind of mini mod wuth installers or/and incorporated in some bigger mod.

How is a vet with power claws gonna sync kill a BT? would there be like air where the hammer smashes in the BT's head?

[KotCR]

Sweet screenies! *bows* :bow2:

Couldn't help noticing how the one Marine only has a single Lightning Claw though...don't Marine Veterans get two or none at all (except the Sergeant, if he gets his from the armoury)?

Also, not sure how easy it would be (due to differences in skeleton or whatever), but wouldn't Marines with Lightning Claws look better using the Imperial Guard General's animations, rather than the Force Commander's? Considering the General also has a pair of claws? The Pistol sync-kill animation the General has could be left out, or be simply replaced with a Bolt Pistol, I would imagine, if somebody had questions about that.

Of course, I'm nowhere near as good at this sorta stuff as you are...so it's really upto you what you do, but just an idea .

[medes]

Also, not sure how easy it would be (due to differences in skeleton or whatever), but wouldn't Marines with Lightning Claws look better using the Imperial Guard General's animations, rather than the Force Commander's?

Can be done, but that would need a whole different model. If i do that, i have to make all of them with claws, since they would use the same attack anim. It would look strange if a vet with a power axe keep jumping like the claw attack

Besides i was kind of saving the claw attack for Captain Shrike

[Ceasar]

i was wondering how u link these in the AE, i look´t att rdn´s wiki but it didnt help that much if any body just could point me in the right direction i wold be endlesly greatfull(tutorial,a step by step, anything that show/tells u how to get these ingame)

[KotCR]

If i do that, i have to make all of them with claws, since they would use the same attack anim. It would look strange if a vet with a power axe keep jumping like the claw attack

But can't you set different animations for different weapons in the Object Editor, like what is done for the Scout Sniper rifle firing? (Speaking of which, Scouts with Bolt Pistol/CCW, Boltgun, Shotgun, and Sniper Rifle options would be nice, rather than the un-codex Plasma & Flamer *hint* *hint* :frog:.)

Oh wait...actually, I see what you mean...you would have to make a new model wouldn't you? Seems the parts of the model would then have to be named the same as those in the Imperial Guard General for the X-Refed or copied animations to work right, wouldn't they? If I rememeber correctly anyway.

Oh well, no worries...

Besides i was kind of saving the claw attack for Captain Shrike

...is fair enough anyway :thumb: .

Keep up the awesome work anyhow, can't wait to see more!

[newghost]

agreed.

medes thank you for doing all this, the community thanks you.

[[f-u]hoppsy]

i was just wondering medes would you when youve done your other models just add 4 models at my request you dont have to just a suggestion

1.the greatest ork warlord ever gazgul thraka

2.the ruler of the ultramarine chapter marnieus calgar

3.chief librarium tigurias (ultramarines)

4.chaplain cassius (ultramarines)

and if you wish some tyranid veterans (ultramarines) the ones experianced against tyranids images of these can be found below
:nod: :nod: :Pint: :!:

http://uk.games-workshop.com/orks/gallery/22/

:evil:

[p0seidon]

Crusader squad, Sword brethren and another top secret thing.

And the public won't see those models until The CoR mod get's released.

And Tyranic veterans are only for the ultraSMurfs cause have you never heared of the honourable first company of the ultramarines who are almost completely made up of tyranic war veterans.....Read dou Fluff.

[[f-u]hoppsy]

are you doing any units for ig id love to see some ratling snipers and some flamer upgrades like the ones out of the codex

i know ive corrected it

[mlai]

OMG the beak! The BEAK!

Hey guys, I heard you guys are also working on completing the unfinished model of the WA IG heavy weapons platoon unit? That would be very sweet because Korbah desperately wants that in order to make his IG for his DOWpro mod. He'll be back at around end of January.

If that could be done we'd be very grateful! I believe all it needs are textures for the sandbags and barbed wire.

[p0seidon]

I will look into it da boyz need sum mor'.

[WeAreLegion]

medes sent me the textures so I can work on them! :ds:

[falcon command]

where has medes beeen lol he ussualy oculd finish a model in a couple o hour where he at?

[bloodthirster90]

it'd be sheer awesomeness if you could get calgar in game! In termie armour! with Honour Guard squad!
Linky: http://uk.games-workshop.com/spacema...nes-gallery/2/

[[f-u]hoppsy]

i agree could you do the ard boyz the orkz will look sweet then only a suggestion

[CrossOrion]

*mildly and carefully suggest everyone put away the suggestions until his next pack release.*

[newghost]

^^^^agreed besides just be happy he's doing this

[Chaospling]

Hey guys - I've looked in these forums and searched the wiki but I can't figure out where to put the lua files. I know that this isn't the first you're asked but we weren't given any usable answers.

So could you please tell me where to put the lua files from Chaos Pack1?

In the readme it's also written that that there are several randomized parts for some of the models - is this something that I have to work with or will the parts automatically appear if I have placed all files correctly?

Thanks so much for any help!

[Kjon]

Ok guys, update on Chaos dread.
There seems to be a problem with either importing or xrefing the animations, for some odd reason both guns shoot into the ground. I've tried it many times and i always get the same result. Everything else is working fine though

[Chaospling]

You're talking about the Chaos Dreadnought?

I was just wondering what happened to that nice model...

[JimHawking]

How come you have taken the Icon Bearer out of the download pack?

[Old Painless]

kjon, you haven't set the 'y' size as a negative have you? It puts the centre of the target which is being shot at at different heights. This would not be on the chaos dred but its target.

[Kjon]

YES that's the problem!!!

The luas... the weapons are firing from where the dreadnought fist is (was) !
Now where can i get x,y,z coordinates from...?

[CrossOrion]

Placing the files in game is alot more complex then the four step instruction Medes provided in his readme. The first three steps are easy. The next step requires you to familiarize yourself with the AE.

It is. SCARY. Yes, I said it, scary to open it up and look at all those complicated files, and you need to explore abit in order to get a hang of it. It took me four hours to figure out what goes where, but in the end, I managed to get chaos terminators in! The Wiki is ... well, not very helpful for anyone who doesn't want to sit down for 4 hours and plouge through its information. You'll have to play around with it yourself. On another note, never mess with the WXP or W40k thingy.

On an off note topic...

the research ability for chaos projectiles vanished. Anyone know where it should be?
