Ok,is there any programms to edit the tech tree?
I think about little changes, like techs for chaos and good...


A question: when i start a game with the emperor they have the power "superdiplomatic".
But i never hear that the emperor (i have only read the books from gaunts ghosts)have embassy in other fractions. Give it not an group in the inquisition there fight against all there is xeno.....? Can you change that for an superpower where is better representet the terrans, like dominator?

to alter the core files, in the data folder they are all xml files.

you can edit them with simple programs like note pad

raceconfig.xml is the race abilities file, change superdiplomat for supersoldier i reckon that gives the imperial feel of space marines etc

for techs

copy the tech.xml file from the main game and put the copy in the dummy tech folder in the mod data section then the game will read this file in preference then you are free to much about and change stuff

Honestly, I think the best way to do the tech tree would be based on ethical alignment. In GC2, you got certain techs based on your ultimate ethical alignment. If you could just implement some new WH 40Kish techs in their place or in addition to those already there, you'd be set. Apart from these particular techs, the rest of the Tech tree should be generic for each race (propulsion systems, weapons, etc).

The Tau would be True Good. The Imperium would be Chaotic (or vice versa with Tau) Good. Eldar are DEFINITELY Neutral. The Orks and Dark Eldar are the very definition of Chaotic Evil. Chaos, Genestealers, and Necs would be Pure Evil.

Just divvy out alignment based tech according to that. I'm not sure if Tech can be differentiated between different Good and Evil alignments (i.e. Chaotic vs Pure in both cases) but I definitely know that Good gets techs that Evil and Neutral don't.

Space Marines, Battle Barges, Exterminatus, and various other distinctly, "Imperial," and defensive techs could be specifically determined by the Imperium's ethical (Good) alignment. Also, in a general kind of way, they could get a drastic advance on ship hit points to make up for the, "flaws," of Imperial tech.

The Tau would get some kind of, "Greater Good," tech that makes their planets impossible (or just incredibly hard) to culturally subvert and some kind of defensive bonus on their star ships.

Eldar (Neutral) would have to get some kind of incredibly advanced weaponry or stealth systems, but a serious logistics penalty (generally) to signify their dwindling numbers.

Orks could generally have like increased production and logistics to signify their constant spawning or something like that.

While I like the idea of Genestealer Cults, I think it would also be a good idea to regulate the Dark Eldar (pirates basically) and Tyranid Hive Fleets to the realm of random events (via Antaran Attack Fleets MoO2, Dread Lords in the DL campaign, or Barbarians in the Civ series).

Necrons and Chaos (Pure Evil) should get some rather nasty evil exclusive weapons systems, a, "Corruption," special tech or influence bonus (for Chaos), and some really high end propulsion techs to signify both races' cannonical edge when it comes to FTL travel.

The Imperium should have the Super Soldiers super ability. The Tau should have Super Diplomats.

Apart from that...I'm out of suggestions. lol

yanno.... i whole heartedly agree with maddybadger here. calm your arse down

not got TA yet

waiting for any bugs to get squashed

but

the individual tech tress and the super humungous map should make a warhammer 40,000 (or as i prefer to pitch it a 30,000 / slightly pre heresy mod) more realistic

we shall see

also

if any one wants to download my 40k mod and build on it then please feel free.

Hi guys, not dead yet, my knowledge of W40K and BFG is much bigger since I was here last time, I´m working on new version for Twilight of the Arnor now

Hello

My Empire is Adepta Sororitas and is it rank 152.

The Orders Militant Of Adepta Sororitas 

aka... Witch Hunters 

aka... Sisters of Battle

The Oder Militant of Bloody Rose which is Saint Mina

Anyway I am trying  make some logos for Bloody Rose and not good at modeling the logo.

Do you have anything on Witch Hunters?

Please let me know, I like to use them in my game and give you full credit for making them.

 

hello everyone

where can i download the mod files

i offere myself as a tester and i can make few suggestion (graphic expirience: non existant ; modding experience : irrilevant ; w40k knowledge: superficial)

eh... eh...

Hello   

Look in the Library for downloads.

I seek knowledge about Adepta Sororitas? I found some Bloody Rose Logos but is there an Adepta Sororitas Banner? I have done some research but not enough to put together a web page yet.  

My Empire is Adepta Sororitas and it's rank is 55 and it will climb in a few months but it will be slow because I am still a newbie.

Would you be interested in joining?

Have you read my post Reply #107

Mmm Expand we must Mmm

 

in which game you have a rank of 55 ?

however i like more tyranids and necrons... (i would like necrons more if they were more.......... NECRONS)

Hello 

It is in MetaVerse, sorry. 

 

I seek knowledge about Adepta Sororitas? I found some Bloody Rose Logos but is there an Adepta Sororitas Banner?

Do you know of any?

 

 

mmm no i've not that knowledge but i can find it for you maybe

p.s.: you're funny

p.p.s.: adeptas sororitas is a chapter from warhammer 40k right?

i can't find any codex about them

Hello 

Yes, The Orders Militant Of Adepta Sororitas  is from Warhammer.

Try Witch Hunters.   

Thank you for the Karma and what is "she is funny" about?  

I am looking for logos for Bloody Rose Sisters of Battle

Later  

 

 

 

 

try downloading a witch hunters handbook

then watch the pictures of painted chapters and then press stamp and do some little editing with a pict manupulation software (even the paint from winzozz) you will be able to cut a battle banner

now i'm gonna format the pc so i can't really give you any nice pics BUT try witch hunters third edition revised page 58 ( i really dunno if you have manuals of warhammer40k but i'm watching six emblems right now and i still dunno if you already knew of them... it's under the subvoice militant orders... because i guess you're empire is not too much charity caring XD)

let me know more about your banner logos knowledge

see you next time

 

Hello 

 Thank you for the infomation. I just bought Corel photoshop pro photo X2. I will give it a try.

 

 

 

well you don't need SUCH a software to do it

try with something more simple...

however you have not read the witch hunters handbook i guess...?

Hello 

I know but I needed anyway.

It took along time to down load but a I got the book and I got a better logo for my ships. I read a little of it.

Thank you for your help

 

 

i'm happy to be useful!

Hi all!  I'm gonna drag this thread back from the dead to ask a question, did anyone ever get this mod working in TA (or better yet, get it working in TA and then continue to tweak it?)

I would love to play this.  The old DA mod was cool enough just to get all the 40k portraits and banners. 

I only have a cursory knowledge of 40k, my roomie in the army was really into them, we wasted a lot of time playing that game when we should have been out getting into trouble!  So I won't hate on anyone for lore or whatever, I just want the cool space-gothic feel.  40k always seemed so immense to me, I guess that was always their point?  In spirit, it seems a perfect fit, however you can wedge it into this game!

 

As the dead goes, everything is almost dead expect my Empire of course, rank 4 in Metaverse. I'm 40k fan too!

To your question after the TA patch, I would say that it will not work until the creator fixes it and I would not hold your breathe on that note.

We bring Order to the Chaos.  We are the Inquisitors of Adepta Sororitas.  We are looking for few brave Generals and Jedi. Yes, we have Master Jedi Yoda helping us so if you want to read  more on my little empire click on the links below and bring a comment or two and don't forget to give karma to the seals!
