This modification adds the Tyranid race, from the tabletop war-game Warhammer 40k from which Dawn of War was based on, to the game. The Tyranids are an alien race, threatening the imperium from the edge of the galaxy, living only to feast upon the flesh of their foes. They are a fearsome adversary, but an even better ally! That's why our mod allows you fight with and for the great Tyranid race, swarm the enemy with hundreds of hormagaunts, stamp on your foes with the huge carnifex and devour your opponent from within with the deadly lictor. We aim to show players of Dawn of War what the fantastic Tyranids are and attempt to keep as true to the feel of the race as possible.

Report this article 0.45 DC Out Now

For Great Justice, linkage to download the 0.45 DC release

Posted by zahaqiel on Jul 2nd, 2008 digg this super bookmark


Well the 0.45 DC release is out. It's available to download here:

Dawnofwar.filefront.com
and
Moddb.com

Enjoy, have fun, I'll stick up some images for you to take a squiz at while you download it.

*sigh* Apparently I have to exceed 300 words in this post, so let's waffle on about what's in it:
New models - basically, it has everything barring the Hive Tyrant now
New animations - Raveners are fully animated, and there's a few other fun surprises
New ways of doing things - mostly you won't have to care about build zones anymore (mostly)

Plus other pretties.

So... go nuts. Eat some worlds.

Edit:
Uploading the pics seems to be taking a stupidly long time both here and on DoWFiles, so I've resorted to Photobucket:
Pic 1
Pic 2
Pic 3
Pic 4

Gah, it looks awesome but when I install it nothing seems to happen, it just pretends it's not there and DC runs as normal.

I go into the directory and the folder with .45 is there but it seems to be ignoring it. Running .4 and .401 works fine though =(

It works for me did you unstall v4.01 cause i just installed over it. Just use the destope icon when you start up dc. Hope this helps.

Apparently it just doesn't work for some people despite the fact that everything it needs is there. Dunno why.

It is amazaing. Its like going from a ps2 to a ps3 everything is there, exluding hive lord or whatever his name is but its still better than the mech you had before. Round of applause for the tyranid mod team.
