Out of curiosity, are the Death Korps soldiers' head armour (the ones with masks) meant to be nigh-indestructible? Seems the only way I can kill them quickly enough is blowing their legs off. Not that they should die as quickly as Ronin or the like, but their heads do seem to be about as armoured as those of a space marine, which is a bit odd.

Hmm. Worked better than I expected, actually. Need to finetune it a bit more though.

They shouldn't be any tougher than normal Guardsman Helmets, but I suppose the gibwoundlimit may be rather too high, so I've halved that down to 10.

Speaking of Krieg Helmets, I just re-did the old ones cause they were horrible. Here they are, same dimensions and all.

Hmm. They still look rather flat, but it's a step up.

Been busy fine-tuning plasma FX whilst I wait for more inspiration, and for a few other things. Made the damage/glow particles invisible and made the glows fade out, which has had an interesting effect on their appearance;

- Pistol
- Rifle
- Cannon

Looks nicer than the particle spray, at least.

Looks like it melts things now, instead of spraying things with particles. Great improvement.

Hey, is there anyway possible to get the latest version from somewhere else other than Box? I'd like to get it but it says "user is out of bandwidth" ^^;

Arcalane, it seems the new version is pretty popular; your bandwidth has already been exceeded could we get a mirror?

..again?! God damn people!

Watch this post, currently mirroring it to Mediafire again. I'll edit when it's done.

I should also note the plasma effects look better in-game than they do there. Screenshots don't really do them proper justice.

Ed: R10 Mediafire Mirror.

Still toying with minor stuff whilst I wait for stuff with the laser sights, further inspiration, and so on. I figured out how to dupe the strikes system into doing 'walking'/advancing barrages (i.e. the shells go from left to right or vice versa, rather than falling at random), and made a demo cluster-mortar barrage. Four shells that each disperse into 12 bomblets (for a total of 48) shortly before hitting the ground.

Credit to Kettenkrad's L-GED/General Industries for the airburst script.

I'm thinking of taking the strikes system and making it into a standalone minimod seperate from the 40K recomp.


Bomblets away!

Putting the finishing touches on R11. Lascannon near-misses hurt allies again, Bolter explosions are no longer dangerous to the user/allies ('cept Inferno bolts) because I'm sick of seeing my troops shoot themselves in the legs, Terminators have been removed entirely to save a little filesize until such time as their sprites are replaced (Kettenkrad has sent me some basic stuff, but has been extremely busy lately), annnnd a bunch of other stuff in the main post upcoming changes list.

Should be out soon, probably after my box bandwidth has refreshed! We'll see.

Any minor tweak requests/ideas/whatever before I wrap this up?

I remember an earlier version of this where i could access the imperial guard units. Now i can't. I see their bits in the file, but they don't show up in game. Do i need to do something to access them?

One minor question about the mod - how exactly do I use the attached/underslung plasma gun on the Bolter CombiPlasma?

I couldn't see an alternate fire option on the radial menu, last I checked.

Edit Factions.ini, it should be pretty obvious what you need to do.

Same way you use the lasgun/shotgun/grenade launcher bayonets; press F.

If you want to change the keys for those, go into the Scripts folder, find the script in question (e.g.; BayonetShotgun.lua) and change the number of self.Key in Create(self). A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, and so on. The Lasgun is under the /Las/ folder.

Whenever I try to download I get the error.

Can someone shoot a mirror my way?

Yeah, I ran out like... on the 15th, or something.

There's a Mediafire mirror link in my post just above the Cluster Bomb demo.
