Updates the complete 1.4 Daemons version to 1.5.
Includes the addition of one new unit, spotting voices for all factions, one new ability, updated FXes and abilities. The list of tiny fixes is long.
Installation:
Apply the patch on a CLEAN Daemons 1.4 install. If a previous or modified version of the Daemons mod are the case, completely delete the Daemons folder, and reinstall the Daemons 1.4 Mod. THEN, apply the 1.5 patch.
And simply overwrite everything.
Patch 1.5 Credits
The Daemons Team would like to thank our brothers that assisted us in creating this patch. In no specific order, we would like to thank:
- Thudmeizer (you cannot thank this guy enough!) and especially his voice actor Tim "Bulwark" Pedersen for his patience on voicing so many spottings, and his... Daemonic Voice!!!
- Skinnie, for his 5 wonderful FXes. And his gently way of conversing.
- RMX and That-One-Bruvva[/B], for their work in making THE WHOLE army team colourable!! RMX also provided more new Team Colours!
FIXES
- UCS locale issues with the Arena of Khorne map fixed.
- Annihilate, Assassinate and DestroyHQ winconditions updated to include most races from known mods - including CODEX (DestroyHQ Wincondition now works OK). For Assassinate, we also included the Updated Code by brother Kasrkin84, that fixes the issue with the 2 possession options of the Necron Lord.
- Added Extermination Wincondition.
- Some small AI updates. Included AI modification for the Blight Drones.
- Lowered the Voice of the Daemon Lord a bit.
- Updated Heroes wincondition stats for Daemons Race (Blight Drones). Added an omitted entry from previous build (Warp Spawn). Rectified a wrong entries from previous build (Tzeentch Herald, Tzeentch Daemon Prince).
- Infernal Rift entity, stats and model, were not proper - now restored to what it should be.
- Tricky: Infernal Rift can NO longer be spawned within buildings or occupied spaces.
- Fiends, Nurglings, Favoured Daemonettes, Herald of Slaanesh and Bloodletters had broken covers (now fixed).
- Fixed pink icon for Heroes wincondition level upgrades for other races (daemons have their own leveling up icon).
- Fixed a tiny issue with the degeneration of buildings when there is no Warp Gate.
- Shared speech and projectile race paths diverted to Daemons mod folders. No inheritance whatsoever.
- Last warnings on weapons and some more fixes on origins and muzzles (Thanks Thud!)
BALANCE/ADDITIONS
- MAJOR: Added spotting voices for all races! Vast amount of scripts. (Thanks Thud and Tim!)
- SERIOUS: Added Blight Drone squad, new sounds also included from Thud's vault. (all taken care of)
- High Quality Team-Colourable Texture Updates by our brother RMX: Fiends, Screamers, Nurglings, Furies, Flesh Hounds, Bloddletters, Daemon Lord, Plague Bearers, Tzeentch Herald.
- High Quality Team-Colourable Texture Updates by our brother That-One-Bruvva: Fiends updates, Herald of Khorne, Daemonettes, GUO, KoS, Nurgle Herald, Slaanesh Herald, LoC.
- New Warp Flux pit ability added, with a new FX, courtesy of brother Skinnie. It will make instability more "bearable" for those who think that it is limiting their strategies. I am not among them (I can handle our instability system with ease!), but still I like this new ability. Yes.
-Improved God Pit abilities FXes, thanks to our brother Skinnie that granted us permissions to use all Five of them in Daemons mod. Abilities also reworked to affect area. No longer they are "to-be-ignored" (thanks for the design help brother Shodar!)
- Added many new Team Colour schemes, based on Daemonic Incursions, courtesy of our brother RMX. I didn't delete the old ones, nor touched the new ones, as team colouring is better left to players. Take your pick!
- Lowered the damage of Guo Spit ability. Modified the armour piercing values as well.
- Lowered HPs of the Warpgate (6000->5000). Additionally, most buildings now get 90 armour, 10 minimum armour (from 100/0), as they were still OP. This way, we are more "fluffy" as well - we embrace the duo-dimensional aspect of all things that come from the Warp*.
- Shodar's resource system "first wave" of suggestions implemented.
> Some pow bonuses were wrong, now fixed where needed. I used my suggestion for LPs (45/20->25/10).
> The return REQ values (it was wrong for me to suggest POW) are now 0.3 (from 0.5). NO more exploits.
Great! Downloading.
waz up! much thanks!!
Huzzah! Will this mean we can play it with Ultimate Apocalypse again?
Unfortunately, still not. We'll still need to wait for UA 1.73. In the meanwhile, though, the coding here's been cleaned up enough that you can merge it into Codex Mod with a little work.
How so?
really? :) can you give a quick how to? or do we just add it to the compiler as per normal?
You can add it onto the Codex_3_5 module file as per normal, but there's one catch to this: the Daemons mod MUST be placed in higher in the list than codex_base, which stores the Codex Mod Daemons. Unfortunately, this will mean that the Codex Mod Daemons will be unplayable, but I think that this mod has a better-balanced Daemons race.
Tried that and it doesnt work m8. Still cant upgrade HQ in Deamons Mod . Codex demons i can upgrade th0. This is 3.6 codex mod i mean btw.
Yeah that's what really blows. It's cause the upgrade tier abilities are the same as Codex. Meaning Daemons Mod and Codex have the same HQ ability names. Honestly if someone was willing to just change the name in which ever mod, then I believe you could play both. (I did a ton of experimenting and sorts...)
Thx very much guys !!!
Thank you.
Downloading! :D
I hope I'm not the only one, but when I go to the army painter for the Chaos Daemons mod, the game crashes ;S

Are you gona make this for Dark crusade?
I find that I get "Fatal Scar Error: Execution Paused" when running this mod. It doesn't matter if the Daemons are even engaged in the fight, it renders the entire game unplayable. Is that fixed in this patch? Are any others having this issue?
Never heard of that issue from anyone. What win conditions are you using, what mods are you using and can you find out what the actual error message is? Should be in the error log or press ctrl+shift+@ and screengrab the message.

In the installation instructions what does it mean by "apply the patch"?
It seems filesmelt.com is not a working link :(
what files do I replace? I unrared it into the deamons folder and started the game but nothings changed.
