Hi there. I am not currently working on this project although it would be interesting to make a better version at some point.

This was sort of a quick hack-together and I cringe a little thinking about it 😬

Hey there. Sorry for such a late reply but I actually stopped working on this a while ago. Anyways I think I know where you and the others may have gone wrong for this problem and it just requires some clarification. The Map Finder application requires just the source directory for Soulstorm. Since maps may be stored in any of the sub-folders and its a standard to use "/Data/Scenarios" in a sub-folder for maps the application will just check all sub-folders if it has a "/Data/Scenarios" path. Example: "./Dawn of War Soulstorm/W40k/Data/Scenarios" is a valid path that probably contains maps. So just only include the path like so: "F:\Steam\SteamApps\common\Dawn of War Soulstorm". (Except without the quotation marks). I also don't remember if I uploaded the patched version I did a while ago so I'll just re-upload that to be sure.

Hi StormGuardian, that is just because its an unknown file. There is nothing malicious in the zip file and ModDB checks all files before allowing someone to upload a file anyway.

Map restriction is already in. Do you mean to be able to restrict it mid-game like the themes? I can definitely work that in :). The map finder does nothing to your files it just reads their names don't worry. It does try to format the names that it prints for you a little bit in order to save you time. Also, an unfortunate problem with the map finder right now is that the base game maps for Dawn of War are not included in save files and are actually internal. So the map-finder won't pick them up. Its not a big deal for Ultimate Apocalypse users because pretty much all the original maps have "Apocalysed" versions which do get picked up. But its something I should mention.

New races should be editable. Make your you update the number at the top of the Factions.txt file with the new count when you change the list. Same as you would for maps. The number tells the computer how many factions to expect.

Number of players is just to indicate if you are playing with friends and I may or may not implement the ally generation simply because time vs reward on this one. But I get bored so dont count it out yet :). I never really specified the rules but how you play each game is totally up to you. I actually kind of intended for games to be played FFA when there is multiple opponents. Unless the opponents are both of the same team (lorewise). So like if the battle says 2 tyranids, imperial guard, and space marines, I would assume the tyranids would be on a team and space marines/imperial guard would also be on a team. However its up to you how you want to set teams as its specific to the kind of campaign your trying to build. As for condition the battles according to your faction, I am not totally sure if its necessary. The weights for custom themes actually provide a lot of specification on the type of games generated and I feel like factoring in what faction you chose would only just add more weight to certain enemies. Something you could just specify in the custom theme. I could make it so you can edit your theme during the campaign however.

The new version makes it possible for you to edit factions and update maps :) Take a look at the new description or READMEs for details on how to accomplish what you outlined.

Hi GertThePaladin,

What version of windows do you have? 64 of 32? You may want to make sure you have the correct java installed. Also restart your computer if you haven't done so recently.

Thats really strange! It could be your java is out of date. Try downloading newest version Java.com. Also note this app only works for windows. (I havent tested it on other OS's)
