The suckage of the DoWPro-WA mod for Winter Assault

Post by Rogue 9 »

The old DoW mods thread.

I got the DoWPro mod for Winter Assault today. I would just like to say that it is in need of serious debugging.

Thermo-plasma generators have a power cost. Measured in 5 digits. That multiply the more normal plasma generators you have. If you have one, it costs 16,000 power. If you have two, it costs 32,000 power. And so forth, though it seems to cap at 72,000.

When it prompts you to play the tutorial because it's your first time, don't. It won't load, and you'll get a black screen informing you of a fatal error that you can't get out of without the three fingered salute.

The AI seems to suck more.

That's all I found in the course of one skirmish as Imperial Guard. I could playtest it a bit more and see if there's anything else wrong, but if I found so much in so short a time, I have to think there's probably other stuff. How this mod got it's own ladder on the Gamespy servers, I have no idea.
It's Rogue, not Rouge!
