This full version brings you the latest Ultimate Apocalypse experience. This time we decided to create a new milestone full installer, since the previous installer was kinda borked.
This version should make installing the UA Mod alot more easy since it doesn't require any previous versions or patches to play!
NB!
Use Installer to install standalone factions ONLY if you don't have them installed.
Changes overview in 1.88.5:
- Agony Titan and other Dark Eldar Voidshields invulnerability fixed
- Eranthis Aconite's Weirdboy and Techmarine VO's
- Thudmeizers latest AI changes, beware the machine!
- Cleaned up Mod files
- New and improved Sisters of Battle textures
- No more pink boxes for Tyranid Bioplasma projectiles
- Updated Plasma Cannon FX for all Imperial Races
- Dark Eldar Cabal Citadel build time drastically Reduced
- Sisters of Battle AI hunter killer missile spam fixed

- Sisters of Battle Assassins cannot attach to squads anymore
REQUIREMENTS:
______________________________________________________

INSTALLATION:
______________________________________________________
- Let the installer put it's content into your Soulstorm directory (The installer will detect your current soulstorm directory, choose a different one if desired.):
DISC - C:\Program Files (x86)\THQ\Dawn of War - Soulstorm
STEAM - C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Dawn of War - Soulstorm
- The installer will open a browserwindow for you, but in case you closed it; download Tyranids standalone mod if you do not have them:
Forums.relicnews.com
- Inquisition Daemonhunters for Soulstorm is already integrated into UA! Thanks to jONES1979 and IDH team.
- Apply the provided LAA.exe patch to both of your Soulstorm.exe and GraphicsConfig.exe. Doing this should have the same effect as installing NTCore 2.0.
- Use the DOW Mod Manager version 1.3 to start UltimateApocalypse_THB_DIDHT or any other Mod instead of using the in-game Mod manager!
(Alternative Links)
- Install Tyranids 0.5b2 here
- Install standalones accordingly.

INSTALLATION FAILED (Via crash to desktop upon starting game):
______________________________________________________
- One possible solution (New Races) would be you did not download and install any standalone factions. Please
visit this page for full guide: Forums.relicnews.com
- Another possible solution would be you did not put ALL files into the SS directory.
- Last and final solution would be you have a corrupted install. Try to download again from a different mirror.
- If you tried all above, visit the technical issues thread: Moddb.com
- The installer may had problems removing legacy files. To fix this delete all UA related files and folders first. Then create a new empty folder somewhere and install the mod into this folder. Once the installer is done, copy&paste the contents of that folder into your soulstorm directory.
- FAQ found here: Moddb.com
TRY TO INSTALL RECOMMENDED FILES:
______________________________________________________
- Use DOW Mod Manager version 1.3
- Use the LAA Patch
--------------------------------------------------------|
Recovery of custom color schemes:
--------------------------------------------------------|
- All user-made color schemes that were created in Soulstorm are tied to the mod they were created on, so if you load a different mod, they won't be there.
- To restore Saved games and paint schemes, go to Dawn of War Soulstorm\Profiles
- Inside the profiles folder, you can copy and paste color schemes from one profile another.
- Go into your profile titled "Profile#", and then select the game that contains your .scheme files.
- Copy the color schemes you want to port and paste them into the Schemes subfolder inside the folder named as the mod you want them to show up (in this case, THB).
- Launch the mod you've just added color schemes to and you'll get your schemes back in the army painter.
RECOMENDED: LAA Patch

1.88.5 CHANGELOG
______________________________________________________
- Updated Necron AI BO strategy to be slightly more competitive in the early game.
- Updated IG AI so new Conscript limit was updated.
- Fixed Agony locale
- Agony Titan updated
- Fixed the conscripts limi back to 10 and DE Citadel build time.
- Updated Necron, Tau, and Tyranids AI with minor fixes.
- Removed all Heroes.ucs files as they are redundant.
- AI Update to Necrons so they are far more reliable when tech'ing from T0-3. Clerical update to CSM.
- Unlocked all DE AI abilities for the HQ and Citadel. Beware! >:]
- Updated SoB AI Assassin and Callidus code as attachments for them were removed.
- Added Kairos Necron Plasma generator death chainreaktion and Sisters Hunterkiller missile fixes
- AI Updated with various faction changes so proper researches are more effectively built. SM had some broken logic that is now fully addressed!
- Added dummy AI sanctuary building so SoB AI can get a faith rate increase when this building is present as complaints were late game Angels were not being built. This should help them but note: this will also make SoB AI stronger so now they will have better access to squad/vehicle abilities that use faith as a weapon.
- Added new Plasma Cannon Decal and Hit FX
- Removed duplicate Daemons Data
- Removed duplicate Tyranid Data
- Merge remote-tracking branch 'refs/remotes/origin/master' into internal_version
- Agony Titan crash fix
- Necron FX lag fix
- Updated UCS - added Titan weapons.ucs
- Updated AI + additional art fixes
- Eranthis SoB Texture Udpate
Good job!
Please tell us if the trackers worked and the download finished correctly.
tracker works well but i cant activate it
it says not valid bencoding
Soo will we need to have some Torrent-opener software from now-on in order to install UA updates?
Can't say that I am a fan of that but I'll see how much will it annoy me today (maybe it won't be that bad...).
Any recommended Torrent client? Should we use uTorrent or is there some better?
No, the usual destribution of the Mod will be left untouched.
You should see this as an alternative to the Moddb / Mediafire download.
The common Torrent Clients should be working with this one, try the one that fits you best.
I like tixati, it's easy to use and is overall pretty great
Do we have to uninstall the previous version before installing the new one?
Nope.
Well done!
Nice! I've been waiting for it!
Will you guys be looking at working on the Tyranids and Inquisition Daemon Hunters?
I find that the Tyranids are hella overpowering at early game via sheer numbers of basic units.
IDH are pretty much a more resource expensive variation of Eldar gameplay(having to "research" unit blueprints to use units)which makes playing them very discouraging.
Chaos Daemons could use some tweaking here and there but nothing specific about them really.
I should of apologized in advance as of my previous post for just in case this was the wrong place to ask such a question.
Finally torrent
My game is crashing to desktop
Is anybody else get a white background when going into the army painter?
It's a bug, disguised as a feature. ^^
Hey guys any idea how to fight orks?
Thing is I can't fight them until I get armor up and that T3 stuff
mod manager says im missing "FreeUI" and "object_points_SS" ? any idea where to get them?
Does it say that if you click on the UA THB DIDHT Mod inside the Mod Manager? Because FreeUI is NOT required to play Daemons inside UA as that's already included. You'll only need to download these files usually when you want to play any other Mod then UA.

hello there
Is there a new update?
i need help downloading it,i have windows 7 home premium and i cant find a video for that because whatever i find the layout is different from what i got,i have watched your video on this site but i just cant get it too work
When i download it and open it with uTorrent it starts normally but after 0.1% an error pops up saying "Error:Access Denied" Anyone know how to fix?
hi, sorry if this sounds stupid but i have recently installed the mod, but i'm using the mod manager and i don't know wich mode is the best or the most "complete", should I use The UA: the hunt begins or the UA: new factions?
Why is there a torrent file within a zip archive? seems kinda pointless and roundabout. It would be much faster and easier to just set the the download link to the torrent's magnet URL
magnet:?xt=urn:btih:chn3jfltvgde6x773xnfn7cavb2qo7vy&dn=UA-THB-v1.88.5-Full.exe&xl=2021846999&fc=1
i am unable to choose any chapter doctrines in the space marines barracks, other than Ultramarines, Blood Ravens and Legion of the damned, i currently have version 1.88.5 installed.any idea what i am doing wrong?
I am new to this mod. How can I put PoK graphics in the UA mod just for me and my personal game? And how do I fix it to only heal and replenish squads near bases? I want to play how I wanna play, regardless of TT.
hi lord_cyrane i just wanted to know, why is it that EA-THB v1.88.5 full does not contain the relic sword research and others? is there anything im missing? i tried downloading the 1.87.2 with the patch but i still dont have it in the emperors armory as a research item. its just the 1.87.2 mod that has it but it has a lot of lag issues compared to the 1.88.5 mod. please help :)
thank you in advance :)
can you turn off the population caps?
For the ANTIVIRUS WARNING: the AV warns a false positive simply because this mod does not have an uninstaller.
There is no way to uninstall this mod,except to uninstall the MAIN mod (THB 1.8.0).
This info is for the modders too,that were wondering how to fix this problem.
I will send them a pvt msg too.
Я скачал, но не происходить запуск установки.
Что мне делать?
Last ******* nerf of space marines was really ******* bad
space marines nerfed? they work just fine for me...
thanks for the torrent cosmocrat!!! very much appreciated.
When ever i start the game in do get the ultimate apocalypse loading screen but not the main menu screen and when i look at races none of the extra are there how do i fox this?
I CAN NOT SEE MY FRIEND NO MULTIPLAYER, how do I solve this? Please help

Alrighty, I think there's an error? I've downloaded the torrent and installed everything but it says I'm missing UltimateApocalypse_Tyranids. I checked the files and *they're all empty!* I can't even find the individual files for your mod anywhere;-; A little help? I've installed the standalone tyrranid mod and all the required files as well!
can't wait f0r 1.9 development/release ~ yet this mod looks like 'truly' the ULTIMATE already ; . *
the fatal scar error in the tutorial again.... don't know if it gonna affect the actual skirmish....
Mod author should be mention it in description how to install order because in wrong order some files missing or not created by installer because it seem need to detect required mod first. Is this known issue or author expect anyone new to this mod know it ?
This torrent link doesn't work for me.I downloaded zip file and when I want to extract it it gives me an error.Help?!
