Cake or Death?
Annoying that you only have Vanilla DOW, most of the decent mods are for Winter Assault or Dark Crusade.
Still, yeah, DOWFiles, which Evil tendencies linked you to is the best place to go.
Make sure you are only browsing the DOW mods, so you don\'t have hundreds of results with only a few you can actually use lol
for mods, it all depends what you want though. if you want new Races, i particularly recommend the Steel Legion Mod, it is amazingly done. everything is perfect. plus it adds a few cool new units to other races as well, but make sure you get the DOW one, not the WA one!
plus, if you want Skins for the units, not actual new units or stat changes, go to http://skins.hiveworldterra.co.uk/
if you want new Badges and Banners, there is some amazing stuff on http://wh40k.ei8ht.net/index.htm
both Skins and Badges and banners will also be usable online, unlike almost all mods. oh and whereas with Mods you can only have one active at a time, you can have any number of Badges and Banners and skins at one time (As long as there aren\'t more than one skin for the same unit, obviously)
i\'m not sure if you know how to install the mods, as most don\'t come with an installer you need to do it manually, but there should be a guide in the Readme of most mods, and guides to how to install skins or Badges on the sites.
P.S. Sorry if i\'ve assumed you didn\'t know how to do something when you do, i don\'t know how much you know about modding, so i figured i\'d just say everything.
P.P.S. i\'ve been a Lurker on these forums for a long long time but i\'m hoping to get more into the community and get more posts!

hmm cant seem to get the steel legion one to work, its the DC version but its not showing in my game manager like it says it should be
James are you sure you installed it right? if you have DC patched up to 1.2 and its installed right, i don\'t know why it isn\'t working :no:
for a map, if you don\'t have it already, i hugely recommend the map Gates of Ultramar
http://dawnofwar.filefront.com/file/Gates_of_Ultramar;39832
it\'s a very well structured map, a lot of detail, and a lot of fun.

should be saving it to dxp2 right ?
My dc is patched up to 1.2
My dc is patched up to 1.2
Basically everything from the .Zip file should be in the DXP2 file yeah.
I know you probably have but it is all extracted right? lol sorry had to ask
You should have a .Module file, and a Steel Legion folder, both in the main DXP folder alongside all the other folders like Badges Banners all that stuff.
i\'m sorry i can\'t give you a total guide on how, i had to uninstall DOW a while back, but i was in the modding community for a few years so i can give advice on mods, but i\'ve forgotten a lot of the technical stuff.
