One of the best mods ever I've seen for Dawn of War (I played almost all of them), I'm not a fan of enormous changes (like codex mod for example, that is still a wonderful modification) and I must tell you that this is really awesome. Thank you very much ;)
HELL YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS ! DAWN OF WAR IS NOT DEAD ! LONG LIVE DAWN OF WAR ! AND THIS AMAZING KICK ASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS MOD ! Thanks for making such an amazing mod guys !
Praise the emperor , for mods like these
I always liked Russians, one more reason now ;)
Thanks.. awesome!! =D
got it to work, yeah I did
Ok! Have fun!
This has given me a reason to re-install Soulstorm, after years of staring at it in my Steam library. Thank you, brother!
Hey. Your mod is great and i really like that you made it. There is just one thing that bugs me. The BT voices and when they speak. As talented as you are, i dont really like their voices. Is there any way i could change their voices to that of the vanilla space marines?
No offense :P
Yes, you can. Download Corsix' Mod Studio Modstudio.corsix.org
Open the BTmod.module and update all units from Data\attrib\ebps\races\black_templars\troops\ list.
Exactly, you need change the ui_ext\speech_directory of each RGD file.
You can take proper sound paths from similar units list of vanilla space marines from Data\attrib\ebps\races\space_marines\troops\ path
I need to mention that such editing will made you version of mod incompatible for LAN games.
higuys
just after some info or help, new to modding ive read all i could etc but ...ive deamons codex advanced ai and all other mods installed i can run the mods but only in scurmish mode ! how can i get the bt campaign up ?? please help plus no noob shite comments please i know im new but trying to learn !
cheers in advance
Hi, Bro.
Black Templar race is not supported by original SS campaign, because it is the new race, not a vanilla SM race replacement.
I've started a campaign conversion long ago, but things are stalled currently. I'm too busy due to involving into help to other people's mods.
To say true, a good conversion will takes years... I did and tested some magic scripts for metamap campaign, like "free for all" battles, etc. Until that, you can try Titanium mod for SS campaign Moddb.com . I've heard, it is extremely hardcore one! :D
hi, im sorry to bother you but what program should I use to unzip this? I have winzip 18.1 and it doesn't work btw im tryin to use this for the "soulstorm strong hold mod"
BT mod have its own installer, no need in any unzip, unrar, etc programs.
o ok well when I download the BT mod it brings up "choose the program you want to use to open this file"
Are you sure you downloaded the EXEecutable installer file?
What name does it have?
Probably, you've got the corrupted file.
the file name is "black_templars_kaurava_crusade_beta-5"
Yes, it is the self-executable installer. File name must be "black_templars_kaurava_crusade_beta-5.exe" to be exact.
...So, ether, your file lost the ".EXE" extention, or You get the file corrupted during downloading, or your PC is infected.
maybe is there anychance theres another mirror? maybe filefront? if not that's alright
Just scroll down this page, about 12-15 comments
Question: I installed this BT mod along with the Codex 3.5 mod. After following your tutorials, I managed to add BT race to the above mentioned mod. To my surprise, when I go to Front End screen in Codex 3.5, a character not present in BT Army Paint menu appears. He has a beard, a large sword and two eagle heads on his backpack. I nicknamed him "Marshal", but I haven't see him before, neither in game nor in paint showcase, BUT there is a character like him on the picture above (right side, descending the stairs). Now, my obvious question: Is he actually a playable character? How to unlock him?
Update: In the \templar_race\tactics folder I found a file called templarmarshalltactic.ai ... interesting.
Marshall's model is present in the mod, but such unit is not accesseble in skirmish. It is reserved for Character in campaign.
Yes, AI file is there, but it never was even tested.
Oh thank you very much for the quick answer! And I hope the Marshal will be pleased with my progress when he arrives, hehehe!
I need help with installing this. For some reason, it want's to create a Soulstorm folder in him Soulstorm folder... Which is weird. Also, after I managed to somehow get it to start up, I promptly crashes...
When I try to activate it in the game mode options, It will restart shortly, but then it crashes... What the heck did I do wrong, and how do I fix it, because I REALLY want to play this mod.
(Hang on and let me try installing the AI mod mentioned above... Man I'm a yutz.)
Haha! Success! Disregard everything I've said so far! I'm a complete and utter idiot; I should have just read through the comments! Thank you for the Amazing Mod by the way; Truly, you are a favored servant of the Emperor!
i nice mod i have to say, just one thing, when i play and enter in the army paint to see the new units some faces and items like sword on the emperor's champion are missing, wat could be the proble and how fix it
It is interesting. I already heard about this from other man. Once.
But I never experienced this by myself, so I have nothing to say...
Did you installed the latest "beta-5" version from moddb (from this page)? Was your install "clean"? For example, delete "BTmod" folder manually and re-install the mod.
If it not helps your, PM me.
well after the first play, the faces appear again, i think it just a visual bug, great mod btw, love play like black templar, in adition of the visual bug, in the most play some faces don't show up, like the capillan (i think it is they name) with no helmet, he allways appear with helmet
Hello, I looked through the comments, but didn't see anything about that so I have to ask: When I try to download the mod via "mirror" it says that it is not possible, to check in minutes etc, I tried many times, and waited, but it doesn't want to download anything? Am I doing anything wrong? Thanks for any answer!
It is probably a temporary moddb error. It happens ...well sometime.
Unfortunatelly, it is out of community control.
btw, google easy find me another links, try them
Strategyinformer.com
Mediafire.com
Почему то ссылки нет((
Только что попробовал - всё ок.
Вот на всякий случай прямая ссылка на зеркала Moddb.com
We goes toward 10K downloads. The really a reason to update the mod with some new features.
:D
We got 10K downloads! What a beautiful today!
Let's go to 40K downloads and then we will release something really exciting! :D
It is only a sign of the quality of the mod itself.
I hope posterior versions get to this number of downloads even faster! You deserve it.
Somebody better tell me what that awesome song playing during the installation is.
Hmkids: Black Templars
They make music for many 40k Themes.
Jones have you ever thought of adding some of the characters from the lore? Like High Marshal Helbrecht as the Force Commander? Or Grimaldus as the Chaplain? Sigismund as the Emperor's Champion? These are just ideas. Idk how possible they would be to create, but it would be epic to see some of the main characters of the Templar we love so much. Keep up the great work, and good luck reaching 40k.
~Titus
Moving toward 20K! Slow in step, mighty in deed! :)
Don't know why but when I installed the mod I couldn't play it but I was able to combine it with the codex mod and was able to play it soooooo I don't know but I did what I wanted to do great race mod
you need Advanced Skirmish AI mod installed, as it is written everywhere.
I think it might be broken now, says my soulstorm.exe or something couldn't be found but all my other mods including Ultimate Apocalypse work perfectly fine
It looks like you have mod installed into the wrong folder.
