Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War 2 Message Board  

Well i have played trough the campaing and tried various mods and trainers/cheats.. but what i really want is a way to edit wargear, mainly weapons to do.. shall we say 90k damage

My modding skills are that of a lemur and the tutorials are gibberish to me. So if you kind guys at these forums or even the esteemed trainer-makers of cheathappens could make such a mod, or give me an _easy_ to understand step-by-step guide it would be really appreciated.

I just want to see a bolter that shoots as accurately as a sniper-rifle, does more damage than an assaultcannon and doesnt need reloading.. is that so much to ask?

I would post this to the dow2 modding forums but they dont really appreciate my desire for godlike items and mod-requests are banned

Well once I get the Winter Assault Mod fixed and uploaded, I will take a stab at modding the Wargear for DOW2, I will do my best on getting that in ASAP.

Yeah, I found that extremely bizarre that the official forums REALLY do not like mod requests. I mean, DoW was ALL about modding; they gave us free reign to do whatever we damned well pleased to that game. DoW 2, however, they don't even want us TALKING about modding, much less making mods.

If somebody out there is really interested in making some godlike wargear, heres what i have learned.. Im just too dumb to do anything with this information

All information below stolen shamelessly from dow2 modding forums:
"I edited gameattrib.sga, wargear and weapons sections, for the wargear."
"I use ->
SGA Tools (archive, sgareader, and sga4to5)
RBFConvertor
RBFConvertor Helper (gives RBFConvertor a graphical UI, makes it easier to convert files, etc)"

nevermind.. i guess im smarter than i thought since i was able to edit those files myself

The last mission was pure carnage <3 heavybolter with no reload times, did 50k damage and 2k splashdamage and had an epic rate of fire.. those tyrannids were dying by the thousands
Maybe a little overpowered but fun as hell

Haha...that sounds awesome. Maybe I'll give this a shot at some point.

EDIT: Wonderful! Thank god for Corsix! I've made jumpjets with almost unlimited range (just for fun - kinda broken to use in the campaign) assault cannons that pelt entire squads with bullets, god-like armor, an assault cannon-esque rocket launcher...the list goes on!
