I'm yellowmonkeySoulEater and I'm trying to gather as many DOW2 modders in discord servers.
If you're interested to learn DOW2 modding or are a modder of any capacity, we'd love to have you onboard! We have some DOW2 modding servers. ⦁ DOWII - Modding Community: Discord.gg ⦁ Nootspheric Network: Discord.gg
I tested this out last night and ran into a few issues. Running a newly installed version 3.19.1.10320. I followed the readme. Data went into GameAssets, heavymetal.sga into Archives and DOW2 Module into the main folder. Running with -dev launch properties. I started a Space Marine campaign on hard and noticed: Level Cap is still 10 Heroes are very much not invincible. PopCap still active. Upgrades and reinforcements are not instant. No custom armors. Main Menu is not changed.
Items ARE infinite use and I received a lot of wargear, but mostly duplicates of the same 4 armors and 15-ish weapons. Overall it seems to do something, but 75% of the features aren't working.
I am not sure why the mod not all working for you. I deleted the game and reinstalled, acquired a non steam 3.1.3 version and tested mods and all worked normal. I added an extra file that contains my mods for the game to read which will replace a steam version. I never had to do this with the other 2 DOW 2 games I modded. The armors in this game are few and gives no duplicates, so i multiplied the armor count so all 4 can have the same armors and recycle the rest for exp. Same for weapons. I recorded the 1st level in 2 parts and you tube links added to this site.
I know this is like 2 years old but if anyone is interested in fixing this just copy the GameAttrib file to the Archives folder in GameAssets, that fixed the problem for me and it should for you too

If you're still around (and you did update the mod recently), would love to have you join the DOW2 modding servers!

I found that it's due to a line of code below in the module file which is causing it to crash.
archive.01 = GameAssets\Archives\005_laststand.sga
You can delete it or get my file in the link below and replace it and the game should be launching fine.
