WARHAMMER 40,000: BIGGER BOOMS
« on: May 02, 2007, 01:14:48 am »
I and everybody else within the 40,000 mod team are very proud to publish our latest work. Warhammer 40,000: Bigger Booms is awaiting your enjoyment!

_____________________________________________________________________________________________
++ INSTRUCTIONS ++

Download and extract the 'Basic Mod' package into your soldat directory. Doing so will result in various files being overwritten so i suggest you make backups.
The main part of the mod now should work (Configurator and gun selection) To play it 'as-is' click on the application called 40k.

To access speech and ambient sound effects download the 'Speech Library' package and extract in a safe place.

Then select a race and open its folder, copy/paste its contents into the 'sfx' folder of your soldat directory (make backups).
Dont forget the sound file called 'dist-grenade' its too large to have in all folders!

This action can be repeated if you get bored with once voice! The speech files also include many of the ambient effects. Therefore i suggest doing it to get the best feel of the mod!

Finally to use the 'Station Turret' download the package and extract the contents to the 'weapon-gfx' folder in your soldat directory!

VirtualTT was looking into the possibility of making a 40,000 themed Trench war map. I dont yet know how far he has got with it.

If anybody would like to make a Warhammer 40k map i would be delighted to help! I am not a good mapper but i can provide gfx.

Hold on a sec...153.01 MB?!?!?!
That is a freakin' huge file! Even TrueCombat (for Quake 3!) is smaller than that!
Can you provide an upload with just the basic graphic & sound files, then another with the speech? 'Cause I don't want to download a bunch of random sound effects.
And give me a reason why I shouldn't use the Mods folder.

Great mod! It really gives Soldat the Dawn of War flavour :D

Unless you have 56k and/or little free memory, is that really a problem? If you do have 56k, then you have my deepest sympathies.

Ok lads.

My appologies! It seems that one sound file in the speech library in particular is very large, in addition to that there are 5 copies of it for each race dispite the fact that they sound the same!

The offending file has been removed to just one.
In addition to those who have a low bandwidth i have made the mod into 3 seperate packages.

Package 1 is the guns and the mod configurator.
Package 2 is the Speech&sfx library, containing the dialouges and the 'Big Booms'.
Package 3 is the new graphics for the stationary guns.

I hope this can settle any problems people have!
P.S stay tuned as i will be releasing some more voices from other races to add to the collection in your speech libraries!

When you go to mak a reply, look at the buttons above.
Find the once called Insert image and click it.

copy the text that appears. Get your image address (the one you posted) and paste the two image brakets on either side. it should then work

Awesomeness....Nice mod. But I have to say some (in my opinion meaned) critism.

-some guns looks too similar to me.
-shading isn't too noticable on some guns
-for some fractions there ain't enought guns for whole armory (14 classic guns + flame,bow...etc) I  mean mainly those 14.

But otherwise It's a nice mod, I just love the TAU guns. And I would like to see more Orkish guns in future.

For me it's a good mod and I would like to help you with it if you really want. If not nothing happen.

Here's my help, accept or not.
