There is a new wiki page set up (WIP) and can be tended to for statistics of factions, watch videos, or even talk strategy!

Tell us what you think:

Ultimate-apocalypse-mod.wikia.com

We are currently seeking Wiki help!

There is a bunch of content, loads of it that the Ultimate Apocalypse mod contains that needs to be implemented on the Wiki. We need your help to add content to this web page. Feel free to contribute anything to the wiki. A sentence, a comment, an image? Maybe an entire page of statistics about a unit or an ability? ANYTHING! We welcome all contribution, and treat this website like it would be your own.

Exception: If you would like to take over and do an entire faction yourself and have full priority over it, please let us know that you are planning to do so. Go for it, and we will be happy to take a look at your work, unless we say "no you can't, but feel free to look into something else." or something... :)

Ultimate Apocalypse mod content only. No other information on other DOW: SS mods allowed, unless the content which you provide is the exact same thing as UA's.

Post here all of your thoughts, suggestions, and most importantly, stats. of units or anything about the factions that you like to see pasted here on the wiki! Any feedback welcome. :)

As I said in other post, I really appreciated this kind of resources because when I began to play serouisly the original Soulstorm, I, literally, "study" this page and all the concepts of strategy and skills of each races:

Warhammer-game.narod.ru

I really hope you can continued with this project because are so many things of your mod that need to learn because thera are a lot of new information not related with the original Soulstorm and your mod and when I pass the cursor of the mouse in the icon of unit or building in the "box help" sometime said things that are not really that thery are. You're incredible.

Best regards

Yeah this thing was called "relic source" if I remember correctly. Used it for years for vanilla and always wanted thing like this for UA. Buuuut, even if I would like to help and create whole data for Eldar I dont really know how I could get this exact data about units dmg and its scaling with researches? Would You help me Lord_Cylarne ? Just tell me how this could be found, where and by use of which tools?
Edit: It was called relic wiki :D

@KaelaMenshaKhaine You can download Corsix Mod Studio from here: Modstudio.corsix.org

After you unpack it and run it click on Load DoW:SS Mod and choose UltimateApocalypse.module.

What should interest you are the folders in Data/attrib Moddb.com

Units, squads and structures info is located in epbs (units and structures) and spbs (squads) folders.
For checking, say, Eldar Guardian stats go to
epbs/races/eldar and double click eldar_guardian.rgd.

ui_ext/ui_info/screen_name_id contains the name of a unit.

health_ext contains info about a single basic unit's hitpoints and how much armour it posses. Info about a type of a armour is located in
Moddb.com type_ext type_armour.

sight_ext has info about sight radius and keen sight.

combat_ext/hardpoints contains info about units weapons. Now, most infantry will have only hardpoint_01 and hardpoint_02 while vehicles can have more.
Moddb.com
hardpoint_(number)/weapon_table/weapon_01 has info what default weapon unit is equpped with, while weapon_(number) has an info what weapon can it be upgraded with.

I could go on even more but you'll find far more info on Relic forums Forums.relicnews.com(FAQ)-NEW-TO-MODDING-READ-THIS!
