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.
The Tyranid Mod is still understaffed; this time we need to fill jobs on the animation front. We're looking for either an animator who can also use the Object Editor, or else an animation pair (one to animate, one to OE).

Hey guys. Long time no update, eh?
Well, the Tyranid Mod team is still suffering from understaffing, which is making our job take a lot more time than we'd like. Currently we need someone (or a pair of someones) to cover our animations - both to animate and to OE the animations into the game.
Mostly this would just constitute a clean up job (figure out which animations are missing and create them), but it would also require a complete animation job on our new Hive Tyrant model (on display in our new images).
If we can get any takers, that'd be awesome. If you want the job, please post in the Tyranid Mod forums on the General Board.

yeah i like the idea but do you need a certian program to do the animations if so then what is it called and is it free?
will there be another mod or just an expansion pack for the mod?
We'd prefer if we had someone experienced with making animations - there are a lot of them to get through.
And yeah, the next release is either going to be 0.5 or 1.0.
