ShadowCloud, read a couple comments down.
You can, just not from the same type of unit. The research names and decriptions tell you which units it lets you summon the Bloodthirster from.
The current version (1.20) is for Dark Crusade only. I'll make an update sometime so you can use it with the original Dawn of War (1.5). Note that older versions of the mod are linked to at the bottom of the description.
Half-Scale doesn't support WA yet, it will soon (hopefully). It's do-able, I just have to set aside some time to update it.
teknotiss: I just tried downloading the Camera Zoom mod, it seems fine now.
teknotiss: I just added the known issues section, there's no way you could have seen it. :) I've seen the announcement about the modtools being released "soon", which will make a WA-compatible version easier to make. After that I'll be looking at finished race mods to add.
@bloodangel99:
It sounds like having too many units in play was straining your system. It may also have overheated your CPU or graphics card.
The mods are independent. You're only playing one at a time, so they won't interfere with each other. They leave the original game intact.
Valon:
It's not a bug with Half-Scale, or any mod. If you don't use the correct version of a mod for the version of DoW you have, it won't work. And DoW always loads the last loaded mod; changing DoW versions can screw that up.
Valon:
Try uninstalling Half-Scale. Make sure the half_scale folder and all half_scale*.module files are removed form the Dawn of War directory. Also, try removing any other mods you may have installed.
Dawn of War tries to load the last mod you loaded when you start. If the versions aren't compatible, DoW will crash.
New version should be up soon.
teknotiss:
I haven't made Half Scale for WA yet, I have to wait until Relic releases the tools I need.
Valon:
Did you patch DoW up to 1.4? You're probably trying to use an incompatible version of Half Scale. Half-Scale 1.04 only works for DoW 1.4, get the other versions for earlier patches.
BTW, the squad leader bugs (and others) are due to a problem with the 1.4 patch; other mods are having the same problem. Previous versions of Half Scale work fine.
I'm going to take a look at the squad leader problems. Currently only the following units can get squad leaders: Cultists, Guardians, Banshees, and Dark Reapers. Also, Orbital Bombardment is broken, but I think that'll be easy to fix.
The Eldar Guardians "crouch-walking" is fine; it's because the animations are linked to the speed, but they are moving fast enough. I'll also take a look at the Chaos Horrors weirdness.
For the latest 1.4-compatible mods, take a look here.
Thanks for the comments, I'm glad my mod is being enjoyed, and that it's playing out as I'd hoped it would. I do plan on updating this mod for 1.4 and Winter Assault, and supporting it for future patches. I'll start work on the next update once Relic releases the new mod tools for 1.4 and WA.
Not exactly sure how the news on this site is propagated. Does it not include a link to the hompage? Anyways:
Homepage
Download Half-Scale Mod!
Version 0.93 is up and available for download; see the link in the description. Now compatible with DoW 1.3.
There used to be a gallery hosted here, with several images. Don't know what happened to it. Visit the Relicnews thread link provided for one sample image.
Download link is in the description.
There's a known issue with vehicle loading, sometimes not all units in a squad load into a vehicle. To get the last few, just move the vehicle slightly, and they'll get on board.
