ORIGINAL COMPILATION:

This is a compilation of WH40K Space Marines and Imperial Guard Mods found on the forums.



The Space Marines, made by ivan21 and Wingwolf.

To change which Chapter you want to use, open up SpaceMarines.ini and follow the instructions!
Now it works perfectly and you can easily enable more than one Chapter at a time.
Thank weegee for the fix.

The download below is the original compilation arranged by Asklar with help from weegee and a couple of others. It does not include the changes made in the recompilations!

RECOMPILATION/REWORK:

This is a reworked version of the mod with contributions from many, many forumites. It comes with many new and different features, too many to easily list.

PONDERINGS/WISHLIST:

Anyone is welcome to work on sprites or code for any entry on this list, or anything from the Imperium that they feel the Compilation is missing, but I can't promise it'll be added.



NOT HAPPENING:
Tanks and vehicles of any description.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Upcoming Version Changes;
+ Fixed Shotgun Frag rounds misbehaving.
+ Tweaks to Shotgun Frag and Slug rounds to improve hit detection/minimize premature detonation oddities.
+ Updated paths to point to new AI files, allows use of squad mechanics.
+ Fixed a number of errors with CopyOfs that should have been PresetNames
+ Adjusted weapon and actor categories for spawning in skirmish defense/etc.
+ Adjusted craft mass/passenger values for spawning in skirmish defense/etc.
+ Tweaked stance offsets for the Vengeance Launchers.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

So, this one made it into the Factions Pack for weegee's Unmapped Lands.

If you're using the original version of the compilation at the top and are using the Imperial Guard, be sure to enable the Space Wolves as well; the Imperial Guard use the Space Wolf Sergeant as their Brain.
If you're using the new versions of the compilation, this is unnecessary - the IG (and Korps) have had the Commissar set to be a Brain.

Remember to enable the Chapter(s) you are going to use in the Factions.cfg (UnmappedLands.rte) and in SpaceMarines.ini (W40K.rte)!

Other 40K Mods:
Necrons and Orkz by Ork-Gothic
Despite their age, they should work with the current build.

Another Space Marines chapter is available here (BA only), but is not included due to conflicts/redundancy/cleanliness/filesize purposes, though some elements such as shields have been incorporated.

A very old and unfinished Tau faction is available here.

DudeAbides has a four-pack of rebalanced/reworked Space Marines, Tau, Necron and Orks available here. I strongly recommend checking out his improvements to the Tau and Necron factions!

Old Changelists;
Now offsite

Sweet i have been waiting for these to be converted for ages and now they are AND they are bundled thanks a bunch

To be honest, they were always compatible.
I just had to do it.

If I'm not wrong, this ones should be compatible with B23 and up.

Odd must of just been me having a mac T-T

Well, I can make a version for Mac, but I'd need to know what things I have to change to make it Mac-compatible.

Last time i checked you just cant use \ and there is something about sounds i got this error

W40K.rte/Weapons/Other/Plasmapis\reload_Start.wav

If you need a mac tester just ask i seem to be the resident mac user :3

Alright, fixed it for macs and some small issues I found out.

Everything should work fine.

If you find a bug post it here or PM me.

This is awesome, bolters are so freaking powerful.
Any chance you could see if you can find some Ork mods for a Ork compilation?
Edit: I noticed that when ever I shoot dummy's with plasma weapons it seems to do about 40 damage but they just die like they are being shut down?
And I can't get other legions to work but I am not bothered by that. More interested about the plasma weapons.

There is an Ork mod, but it's just one so I don't think a compilation is needed =P
I also found some Necrons mod. I'll put a link to those in the main post, but before I'll check if they work.

Cheers for that now I can have Ork v Space marine battles.

(Sorry but I read through the instructions and I think I confused my self with why the chapters won't work. I never find out how to do anything in this game >.>)

Uuuh Ivan I love all of your sprites so goddamned much. Does Ivan come here often anymore?

EDIT: Also, Asklar, nice job with the chapter selection, excellently done.

I just compiled stuff. Anyone could have done the same.

This mods are just too good to be forgotten.

Now if someone added the rest of W40k stuff there (Orcs and Necrons and Tau)...

Hey, I thought our bolters were completely forgotten.
Thanks for still remembering them, Asklar!

Okay so, update (nothing new, just fixes! Thanks a lot weegee).

And I found more marine content, the Black Templars, and the Imperial Guard.

Should I add them? It would add a couple of weapons and many actors, but the file will be much heavier.

Does someone know how much is the size limit for uploading files to the forums?
