Warhammer 40k Mission Editor

[Warhunter]

I think many of you have hearded about the Mission Editor. It's like the Wc3 WE. But, I only got one problem. When I try to start it, it closes 1 sec after. I
can se a window poping up, then it being closed directly. You know what might be wrong?

 

[Gespenst]

Are you patched?

Running vista?

 

[Warhunter]

Both.

 

[Gespenst]

Make sure you have taken control of all the wh40k files and that you are running the editor under administrator.

 

[Warhunter]

Have aldready tried that. :S

 

[Gespenst]

Do you have it in the proper directory? Try reinstalling.

I had to tinker with some programs to go to /c: program files (86x)

 

[Warhunter]

What's the proper directory then? I have also reinstalled it 3 times. Shall it be installed in the same folder as DoW?

And about that /c:/program files (86x) I don't know what you mean. :S

 

[Gespenst]

Of course in the same folder as DoW.

[C:\Program Files (x86)\THQ\Dawn of War\] Is my directory. I assume it uses the resource files in these game folders, So in theory it could work with dark crusade and soulstorm.

 

[Warhunter]

hm.. I think I just installed it in C:/program files/Mission Editor...
I will try when I get home again. Thanks for help!

 

[Gespenst]

C:\Program Files (x86)\THQ\Dawn of War\Mission Editor ...

 

[Warhunter]

tried.. Didn't work.

 

[HailFireer]

Hm, Most of my files are in D. Anyway DoW and WA are in 1 folder, DC in another and Soulstorm in 3 one. Oh and where can I get patches? And that mission editor. Newer hurd of it untill now...

 

[Warhunter]

I know where to get patch 1 and 2 to soulstorm. I can send them if you want.

 

[Warhunter]

Patch 1.1 http://www.gameborder.com/game/Dawn%20of%20War:%20Soulstorm%20Patch/
Patch 1.2 http://www.gameborder.com/game/Dawn%20of%20War:%20Soulstorm%20Patch%20v1.20/

That's all patches for Soulstorm.

 

[HailFireer]

KK TY. I will updaite tomorow, because my time on the good PC is over for today

 

[Mechanical Man]

Were any good mods (possibly singleplayer) created with this tool?

 

[Warhunter]

Alright, I have found the error. My DoW version is to old. Could anyone give me all patches that exsist?

 

[HailFireer]

No sorry. I got no patches for any game, but SS witch you gave me...

 

[Warhunter]

I have no idea how many patches do exist.

 

[Velmarshal]

3 for now.
1.0 > 1.40
1.40 > 1.41
1.41 > 1.50
As I remember.

 

[Warhunter]

But that's wierd, the mission editor says that you need 1.3 or higher, so, shouldn't 1.3 exsist?

 

[Velmarshal]

I don't know. My DoW Updated 3 times with patches before.
But I'm sure that the current version is 1.5 or higher.

 

[Crus]

Shouldn't DoW1 be automatically updated when installing Winter Assault?

 

[HailFireer]

Dont know. Aldo my first DoW i instaled, I went on internte. I dled r patches. Hm, so you should thry that too. Just create a n account and log in. He will offer patches to dl, and you should.

 

[Gespenst]

....

Just go to warhammer filefront and get the patches from there. Filefront was saved from imminent doom, so you can still rely on filefront for patches.

 

[HailFireer]

How you mean "was saved from imminent doom"?

 

[Crus]

Filefront was temporary closed because of lack of fundings but now it's up and running again.
