Hi, if the farseer you're talking about is in the campaign, it's on purpose, the new model isn't compatible with the wargear (or rather i wasn't able to get it working).
On the other hand, if it is in the skirmish, it may be a problem that needs a fix.

Hi, thank you for the report, i'll look into it.

Negative, the focus of "my" mod is to be just a visual update and nothing else.

Dark Crusade is my favourite installment of the first dawn of war, the campagin is so much better, i will definitely try to do something about it as well. Keep an eye on the other page for updates.

Hi, sorry for the late reply, i'll look into it as i'm trying to fix other problems as well, but just in case if you can be more specific would be of great help.

Hi, sorry for the long delay, will look into it.

Hi, i'll check it right away as i'm back working on it, shouldn't be too hard to fix. Worst case scenario i'll revert to the vanilla model.

There is, still bears the old name "M42", but it's a bit incomplete, last time i checked i had some issues with color bleeding with some units.

Sorry, i haven't played this game or worked on it for a couple of years, and i had difficulties finding it too.
I'm not sure i can post the download link here as whatever is left over is not official, but try to search on google "idh_beta2_ss".

I left some instructions in the file description if you want to try to make it work with the newest versions of IDH, but i never tried it myself.

Hi, unless you want to mod it yourself, you can reply here and tell me all the campaign units that need to be replaced.
Don't be shy, the more bugs/inconstancies you submit the better, i'll gladly fix them. It may be a good occasion to release the new version which also fixes some color bleeding on chaos units.

Yes, i plan to remove the "Campaign" button from the menu.

Open it with 7zip

I think the closest thing to a remaster it's the Redux Mod Moddb.com
It came out recently, i didn't have the time to try it tho', but it seems it focuses on textures mostly.

Sorry but no, the reason is the gameplay is 100% unchanged, just models and scales do.

Thanks. Winter Assault was down the pipeline before i stopped working on it, which means i plan to release it within the end of the year (the only one i DON'T plan to work on is the vanilla version of the game).
I'm also more inclined to use a generic brother captain instead of Angelos, but i can give you the model and a few instructions on how to replace it.

Hi, sorry for the late reply.
I'm aware of both bugs you mentioned, both color and scout squads not receiving the correct upgrade unless it's a sniper rifle.
As for the color problem, i think i have fixed most of the bugs, i just didn't finalized and released it out of lazyness, but i will soon.
The main problem is that i was using soulstorm models and not dark crusade ones, i replaced what i could with the correct ones.
As for the marine scouts bug, i don't think i can fix it. The reason is, the scout models i'm using were not made for using either plasma or flamer.
If i had modeling skills i could probably add plasma and flamers to the models, but sadly i don't, so unless the newer FoK/Ultimate Apocalypse release a new scout model, there's little i can do except revert to the old scout model.

Absolutely, it's almost ready and i plan to upload it within a couple of days.

Now i understand, but that wouldn't work, if you have different files from the other players the game would desync and stop as soon as it begins.
If you dig into soulstorm tho', i'm about to release a version for it. The hope is that by leaving the gameplay untouched, players will adopt it as a multiplayer standard.

Not sure on the advantage of that, but no, it would be a lot of work to repack the game files, and if something goes wrong you'll have to reinstall tthe game.

No in the most absolute way, at least for the Dark Crusade version.
Consider it an aestethic upgrade for people who like the vanilla game but are tired of the ******** vehicle scale and the aged textures.
