This is a Warhammer 40k total conversion for OpenXcom, based on an earlier space marine mod by Ryskeliini. As Force Commander for the Imperium of Man on a planet beseiged by Chaos, you must find a way to end the Warp Storm and purge your world!

By Ryskeliini, bulletdesigner, ohartenstein23, and many contributors from the OXC forums

Installation and Update Instructions Video: Youtu.be

Installation:

Download and install OpenXcom Extended (OXCE), version 5.5 or later, by Meridian and Yankes
Run OXCE after copying the UFO files to generate the user/mods folder
Download the 40k files, and unzip into the mods folder
Run OXCE, go to Options > Mods and select "40k" from the drop-down menu at the top
(Optional) If the Music is playing the UFO soundtrack, check Options > Audio > Music Format, and set it to "Auto" or "OGG" if it isn't one of those.
(Optional) Turn on the Stat Strings mod under Options > Mods
(Optional) Turn on the Chapter Change mod under Options > Mods to change the look of your Space Marines to the Imperial Fists or the Blood Angels Chapters

Reduced Download Install:

If you already have the mod Version 020, want a smaller download, and are comfortable manually moving some files within the mod folder, pick the 40k_noANIMS_021.zip download.
Follow the instructions for Updating below, but when you remove the previous version, keep the folders 40k/Resources/ANIMS and 40k/SOUND.
After putting the updated 40k folder into user/mods, put the folders you kept from the previous version into the same places in the new version.
If the game doesn't work correctly after this, try the full download/update.

Updating:

Save any current campaign in the Geoscape. Loading a Battlescape save from a previous version is more likely to cause bugs and crashes, and is not recommended.
Remove the previous version's 40k folders from your OXCE mods folder.
Download the new version's files and unzip into the mods folder. Your previous saves should be compatible if made during the Geoscape.

Hi, I added ArchLinux support for you mod. Please take a look here:

ohartenstein23 @ohartenstein23

Thanks, but I don't think this is really necessary since OXCE is already supported on Arch, and the mod itself doesn't need any modification to run on different operating systems.

ham or spam?

ohartenstein23 @ohartenstein23

For the 021 release, OXCE 5.5 is sufficient, the message you may be getting on start-up or activating the 40k mod for not having 5.5.1 can be ignored if you have the latest release of OXCE.

If you want the message to go away, edit the file 40k/metadata.yml to say the required version is 5.5 instead.

I realized the dogfight UFO/ship sprites are missing, because those require custom art made, along with a lot of chaos weapons & tech. I wish I was in a position to supply those arts, but alas, I have to put food on the kitchen table.

ohartenstein23 @ohartenstein23

Which ones are missing? We generally don't release a new UFO or Craft unless we have all the sprites it needs.

Hi, really enjoyed (and enjoying) the mod! I've finished an Imperial Guard run and thoroughly enjoyed it! Though now that I'm starting a marines run I'm a bit confused as to how to get dreadnaughts as I can't find 'revive fallen brothers' in my soldiers tab (and being able to manufacture dreadnaught armour)

Reply · 32d

ohartenstein23 @ohartenstein23

Congrats on completing an IG campaign, it's not an easy feat! The "Revive Fallen Brother" should show up in the drop-down menu in the lower-left of the soldiers screen, where you'd promote Guardsmen to Officers or Veterans.

If you can manufacture dreadnought armor but don't have the transformation option, then you should check whether you're on the latest released version (020). If you are, then send me your save either as a pastebin link, on our discord server, or however you feel comfortable sharing the save file.

I see the grey knights are new enemies. So I guess in the mods lore they invade the planet to purge all life by the order of the inquisition?

The Grey Knights are in the mod to ensure the purity of the Chapter under your command.

Continuing our streak of release-day bugs, here's a fix for sprites causing a crash when opening the bases screen, just replace the ruleset in 40k/Rulesets: Openxcom.org

lasseronne @lasseronne

Hey
Do we have an ETA on the fix for the REGION_HULK_SITE bug? It is just because I get it in all my saves since 019.
Sorry if this sound in any way demanding, it is not meant to. I just really love this mod and want to play it :) and will just go back to 018 until then.
Thanks

Reply · 80d

ohartenstein23 @ohartenstein23

I just pinned a fix for this in our discord server, check if you can download the ruleset from this link and put it in your 40k/Rulesets folder: Cdn.discordapp.com

Version 020, which fixes a number of bugs, should come out within the next few days. It was delayed by the number of bugreports we received and some new features taking longer to implement than expected.

Question: say I've lost 10 guardsman since day 1. It's feb 23.
In "montlhy costs" screen, under salaries, it tells me I still have them somehow. Could it be a bug? It was showing the right number (2) just before terror mission 2 I believe.
Thanks!

Thanks for the report, I'll make sure it gets fixed soon. We have a number of bugs with the 019 release due to the globe changes, so likely 020 will come out soon just to patch up these problems.

Sorry if this had already been discovered, but i am having a problem. In the battlescape the game will sometimes just switch which unit I have selected. It was not a big problem at first because it only did it once or twice ever now and then but i just had to quit playing because it was just cycling rapidly through all my units while my hands where off the mouse and keyboard completely. Please let me know if this is a bug or if it's on my end.

ohartenstein23 @ohartenstein23

I've never heard of that happening before, and is likely a problem with one of your input devices.

Yes you are right, I tested it on a vanilla game and i had the same problem. However, i never had this problem when i played on normal OpenXcom. My mouse also works fine so if you know what it could be i would appreciate you telling me. If not, don't worry about it and thanks for the reply.

ohartenstein23 @ohartenstein23

I've had soldiers cycle somewhat like that when using the scroll feature on a laptop touchpad, that's one place to start looking. Maybe a sticky TAB key could be another.

You might also try re-installing OXCE, maybe something went wrong with your installation.
