[Optional] For those who want to play Last Light of Dawn Mod without the greatly increased difficulty. Reduces enemy spawn rates back to vanilla. So that significantly fewer opponents spawn. Just like in the original game.

It is recommended not to use any other mods besidesLast Light of Dawn, unless they are pure sound mods or they are compatible mods such as the “Easy Mode”.
Last Light of Dawn - In the Heart of Shadow was primarily designed to be played in multiplayer COOP, but also works in single player. Feel free to create public lobbies. The Last Light of Dawn - In the Heart of Shadow Mod has a different version number than the original game, so other players who do not have Last Light of Dawn installed will not be able to join your lobby. Note that Last Light of Dawn does not check for different mod versions. It is best to write your mod version in the server name. This mod only works with the Steam & GOG version of the game. Other platforms such as Windows Store are currently not supported.
To play multiplayer COOP, everyone must have the same version of the mod installed to avoid problems.
- Introduction - "Nothing is more brutal than when Warrior Genestealers have you backed into a corner, and you can't use your melee weapon because they're blocking all your attacks, and you can't use your ranged weapon because there's no room to shoot, and you're watching your armor slowly give up its protection and your strength dwindle, only to find out that there are two Broodlords trying to kill you next door." - Marold, Librarian from the First Company of the Dark Angels.
Where they stand, none shall pass." - Grand Master Belial
Last Light of Dawn ... ... is the ultimate Space Hulk: Deathwing experience. The goal of this mod is to create a hardcore gaming experience while at the same time improving the game balance compared to vanilla and allowing for smoother gameplay. Genestealers are smarter and more dangerous, but also the Deathwing Terminators can make use of an improved arsenal. But even new players should be able to survive the game on the easiest difficulty levels. Provided they have already bought their first character upgrades.
... In the Heart of Shadow Your own skill level, the right choice of weapons and being able to handle them will be important. The ability to resist and respond to pressure is required. And a fast reaction time.
Should I continue on this path ...? ... Or should I retreat ... ?_______________________________________________________________ This mod contains among others 1) New weapons balance 2) New player balance 3) [Hard Mode !] No revives from Tactical or Chaplain 4) New Perk & Build System (WIP) 5) Over 280 new sound effects 6) New music OST from Bloodborne 7) New enemy behavior 8) Better AI 9) Better Terminator AI for Barachiel and Nahum 10) More aggressive and faster Genestealers 11) Enemies spawn significantly more often and in greater numbers 12) Project Grim Dark Dark Mod(e) 13) Improved light & shadow & texture quality 14) More precise physics simulation 15) More precise and faster pathfinding for NPCs 16) Number of maximal allowed simultaneous particle effects per frame has been tripled 17) Modifications to the collision behavior of NPCs 18) An optional Easy Mode ... and more ! _______________________________________________________________
--- New Sound Effects ---
Over 280 reworked and replaced sound files create a new acoustic experience that, along with the significantly darker and more immersive environment, will send shivers down your spine.
The number of active light sources has been greatly reduced. The corridors of abandoned spaceship sectors are now much darker, restricting the player's view.
When trying to reactivate the old engines in Chapter 02 by the hybrids, some of the old engines burned out. And since the air extraction system no longer works properly in this part of the ship, large sections of the old ship are covered in thick smoke. As the interior lighting is also not working, visibility is significantly reduced in this part of the Space Hulk.
Personalize your favorite classes and weapons even more! With Update 3.1, Psionic Awakening, the first “builds” were introduced for several classes such as the Chaplain, Assault & Librarian.
Builds are linked perks that can only be equipped together and can drastically change the gameplay of a class. Related perks can be recognized by the fact that they have the same symbol or even the same name.
Each class also has access to the “Blessed Blood” perk, which gives each class automatic life regeneration.
Here are some of the currently available builds in version 3.1
- LIBRARIAN -
- THUNDERLORD - Reduces the cooldown of Chain Lightning by 50%, but increases the cooldown of Shockwave by 50%.
- ASSAULT -
- BERSERKER - Reduces the cooldown of Frenzy to 9 seconds. - DEEP STRIKER - Reduces the cooldown of teleportation to 15 seconds. Has more armor than the BERSERKER.
- ZEALOT - Enemies cannot parry your attacks.
- Chaplain -
- Retributer - Reduces the cooldown of Retribution to 19 seconds.
Chaplain's Cruzius
- Tactical -
- Tech-Marine - Reduces the cooldown of the Skull Bolter Drone to 77 seconds. - PROTECTOR - Reduces the cooldown of Protector to 15 seconds. Allows you to protect your brothers with shields.
Also, the perk that allows the Skull-Bolter Drone to fire missiles can now stay equipped with all builds at all times!
--- New weapon balance --- The time to kill of all weapons has been modified! Deathwing Terminators deal increased damage with all weapons. Enemies suffer stronger stagger effects when taking damage. As weapons with area damage scale too strongly with the increased spawn rate of genestealers, the area damage of most weapons has been reduced or removed.
The Skull-Bolter Drone now fires Vengeance projectiles with higher armor penetration.
--- What has been changed to the weapons? ---
The Thunderhammer & Mace no longer deals AoE damage.
The Hellfire no longer constantly staggers enemies.
The MK1 and MK2 storm bolters are now deadly as they should be.
Soulblaze! Set your enemies ablaze with the Librarian's Sword!
Purgatory Sword currently no longer has an Ultimate Rune to balance the new Assault builds.
The Plasmacannon no longer stagger oversized genestealers like the Broodlord.
The Heavy Flamer now correctly deals friendly fire damage.
Area damage from most weapons have been reduced or removed.
Balance changes to most weapons to make each weapon relevant.
Overly powerful weapons have been nerfed and weak weapons have been buffed.
Shield Bash from Assault should now knock smaller opponents to the ground or push them away.
Weapons now have different and faster reload speeds: Stormbolter MK1: 1.5s Stormbolter MK2: 1.65s Redemption: 2.38s Hellfire: 2.68s
The Librarian's Force Sword now sets enemies on fire when hit.
--- Last ammunition --- A new game mechanic for the heavy weapons, Assault Cannon & Vengeance from Heavy Terminator, and the Heavy Flamethrower from Tactical Terminator & Chaplain !
The Assault Cannon & the Vengeance & and the Heavy Flamethrower now only have one single limited magazine available.
A Psy Gate must be used to reload and the corresponding weapon must be re-equipped in the equipment menu.
_______________________________________________________________ --- PLAYER BALANCE ---
Hardmode ! Tactical and Chaplain's revive abilities have been removed. Try not to die !
Players have increased base speed, up to more than 20%, but no sprint. Similar to the Vermintide games. The movement speed is based on the selected class: Assault > 1.251 Apothecary > 1.215 Tactical > 1.2 Heavy > 1.19 Librarian > 1.18 Chaplain > 1.17 (Base Speed for all classes in vanilla is 1.00)
Heavy Stubber and Autogun no longer deal damage to players.
Hybrid Psykers now have a longer recharge time for their Psy attack. Players now have significantly more time to react to Psykers.
Once a Hybrid Psyker makes visual contact with a player, it will randomly teleport away and perform its Psy Attack after a period of time. No further line-of-sight is required.
Better AI. Genestealers will now use significantly more cover to protect themselves from attacks. They will wait until they can attack as a group.
Unstoppable swarm ! Faster and more dangerous genestealers. Genestealers spawn more often and in larger groups and are more aggressive.
Broodlord has been reworked and is now even deadlier!
Scythe Strain have been reworked. They will now deliver deadly and dynamic boss battles. Watch out for their charge attack !
Dangerous Bossfights! Broodlords and Scythe Strains can now reach all areas of the map and are no longer blocked by doors or small corridors.
You can't hide, they will find you! Scythe Strains now spawn at level start somewhere on the map in hunting mode. Once they can find a way to the player, they will track him down and attempt to kill.
Number of simultaneous particle effects per frame has been tripled
_______________________________________________________________ --- GAMEPLAY AND LORE ---
The Machine Spirit has quarantined the ship sections. All entrances are blocked. Blessing or curse? Players must make their way through the blocked corridors while fending off the Genestealer attacks.
All doors are blocked! Doors have 550 life points and have to be opened with muscle strength, since no one in the Deathwing Squad thought about taking a chain fist ... Melee weapons with higher damage like the Thunderhammer cause more damage to the doors faster than melee weapons such as the Medikit or the Forcesword or the Cruzios! Additional spawns. On some maps one or more Scythe Strains now spawn at level start. The Olethros is under quarantine... but you still have to struggle through the ship sections. Are you sure you want to break down the door?
--- OTHERS --- Turrets are now always active. Doors are now always closed by default.
Additional vanilla bug fixes such as the "warrior spawn bug" and the "white screen and never ending game bug when the bomb explodes in the special mission".
Network optimizations. Lag and poor connections are now a thing of the past.
Modified localizations for the English and German language. Updated tooltips with additional information and more. The “better” Enhanced Edition

FAQ: Q:Can I use the mod without the binaries? A: Yes ! The binaries are only there so that you can create a public lobby without a password, and only players with the same binaries from the mod can join you!
Q:Does this mod work in COOP? A: Yes, it works without problems in co-op mode, provided that everyone has installed the mod in the same version and no one joins who has not installed the mod.
Q:Do other players also need to have the mod installed? Or is it enough if only the host has installed the mod? A: No, all players must have the mod installed, both host and clients, to avoid gamebreaking bugs.
Q: The mod doesn't work for me? A: Unfortunately the mod only works with the Steam version of the game. GOG and Microsoft Store are not supported by me because, 1. I do not own these versions. 2. it would probably be too much work to find and fix the problems. If you want, you can port the mod to the appropriate platform yourself.

CHANGELOG Release Branch 3.0.1 - Souls in the Dark:
Genestealer, Hunter and Warrior attacks should now more often have a proper collision and actually hit the player instead of "hitting through" the player without doing any damage.
The volume of Genestealer melee hits on the player has been increased slightly. Dev Note: There was no proper feedback, so players could not tell when they were hit and when they were not. This should now work better with the sound volume.
Remove the cheese on Chapter 1 on the left and right side at the starting point.
English and German text only: Adds some new tooltips to better describe the functionality of some weapons and classes in the mod. There is now a warning in the main menu if no patch is installed for the single player.

Fire mines! Heavy Class Proximinity Mine can now stagger all enemies including the Broodlord and causes fire on enemies hit.
The Heavy Flamethrower now takes a moment to ignite enemies. Maintain the sea of flames to defeat your opponents.
Slightly reduces the attack range of Purgatory Sword and Force Sword to reduce their cleave.

3) Genestealer attacks use the librarian's power sword as a base. I don't know why, but I just changed it to the Purgatory Sword. Genestealers can now do significantly more damage. Will be monitored and changed back if necessary.

CHANGELOG Release Branch 2.6.1 Beta:
This is a fix for the Broodlord, who was unable to climb and was stuck in an infinite loop.
CHANGELOG Release Branch 2.6 Beta:
Genestealer: Increases damage from all Genestealers. Broodlord is not affected. Increases damage done by Abberant's melee attacks. Increases the damage done by Abberant's ranged distance weapons, Mining Laser and Ioncanon. Increase the damage from Thorax Swarm.
Purgatory Sword: Changes the impact class to that of the Librarian's Force Sword. Now gives much better feedback on a hit or kill and now has the cool slash sound of the Force Sword.
Heavy Flamer: Removes Reliability Module from Heavy Flamer so that the Heavy Flamer jams more often to reduce the "spamming" of a lot of AoE. The Heavy Flamer should now correctly deal Friendly Fire damage. Edit: For whatever reason, the Heavy Flamer has no weapon jamming for me. I'll have another look at this in one of the next updates.
Effects: Increases the visual duration of effects. You can now see your destruction in the environment for longer.
Librarian: Warp Disruptors can now be found in Upgrade 4. Players will now have to decide whether to use Battle Psyker or Warp Disrupt as a perk, as both perks affect and buff the melee damage of the Psi Weapons, Force Axe and Force Sword.
Heavy: Crusader, Firestorm, and Proximity CD Reducer have been removed from Upgrade 2 because it is not worth changing 10% armor for them. In Upgrade 1, Mine 15% CD Reducer has been replaced with Mine 20% CD Reducer.
Assault: Upgrade 3 replaced 20% armor bonus with 15% armor bonus. In return, Upgrade 4 now has a 5% armor bonus. Players will now have to decide if they want more armor or more boss damage or more critical hits from Upgrade 4.
Thorax Swarm Effect Reduction and Laser Damage Reduction have been removed from Upgrade 4 because it's not worth giving up more armor or damage. And the Assault already has 20% ranged damage reduction from Lion's Courage.
Apothecary: In Upgrade 1, the 40% acid damage reduction has been reduced by 10% to 30%.
Tactical: Skull Bolter Cooldown Reduction is now the only perk in Upgrade 1 that ensures players will equip it, as it reduces the cooldown of the ability to 66 seconds and is the main feature of the Tactical Rework. Removed the 15% melee damage boost and 10% ranged damage boost from Upgrade 4, as the flat damage bonus would likely outweigh the benefits of the other perks (Skull Bolter Missiles and Beast Slayer - 15% damage boost on larger Genestealer). Slayer of the Beast can now be found in Upgrade 2.
Chaplain: Removes Slayer of the Beast from the Chaplain, as the Chaplain is usually a boss killer (his Shield abilities guarantee a Broodlord kill) and does not need to be buffed for it. Added Burning Absolution to Caliban's Spear. The perk is now always active and does not need to be manually selected. Added Redeemer to the Cruzios. The perk is now always active and does not require manual reselection. Removes the 15% Meele damage increase from Upgrade 4. Adamantium Will can now be found at Upgrade 1.
CHANGELOG Release Branch2.5 Beta:
1.) Major revision of the talent tree. Please re-equip your talent points in the main menu. Note that not all talents and talent combinations may work correct. You can report non-functioning talents to me. I reserve the right to make further changes.
2.) Reduces the range of the Librarian's Force Sword from 30 to 28.5.
3.) Adjustments to the German and English localization in the mod. CHANGELOG Release Branch 2.4.2 Beta:
Fixes issue where genestealers were unable to block melee attacks from players.
CHANGELOG Release Branch 2.4.1 Beta:
1.) Fixed a issue where the talent point "Warp disruption" of Librarian also affected the damage dealt by the Stormbolters Mk1 / Mk2 and the Redemption.
2.) Increases the damage and stagger effect of the Energy Fist.
3.) Adjustments to the German and English localization in the mod.
CHANGELOG Release Branch 2.4 Beta:
Adds custom localization for the German and English translation of the game.
CHANGELOG Release Branch 2.3.2 Beta:
Increase Assaultcanon damage and Spear of Caliban damage. Reduce Assaultcanon reload time from 3 sec to 2.77 sec
CHANGELOG Release Branch 2.3.1 Beta:
1.) Increase movement speed from players from 1.1 to: Apothecary > 1.195 Assault > 1.19 Tactical > 1.18 Librarian > 1.17 Heavy > 1.16 Chaplain > 1.15
2.) Adds: "bReplicates" to some assets to increase compatibility in public lobbies with players without the mod. Weapons and movement should now be correctly synchronized without bugs. HOWEVER, players without the mod will not be able to take advantage of the new costum perks from the mod, and vanilla perks may not work, which means players without the mod will have corresponding gameplay disadvantages ... I still recommend a private lobby and that all players have the mod in the same version to keep the game experience consistent.
CHANGELOG Release Branch 2.2 Beta:
Reduce weapon jam uptime for Stormbolter MK1 & MK2 and for the Heavy Flamer. Adds network optimizations from my mod "GameNetworkManager". The mod 500-GameNetworkManager_P is no longer needed.
CHANGELOG Release Branch 2.1 Beta:
Reduce Health from doors by 50%.
CHANGELOG Release Branch 2.0 Beta:
Talentree Overhaul (Beta). Please re-equip your talent points. Apothecary is back.
CHANGELOG Release Branch 1.1 Beta:
Adjustments to the reload times of individual weapons.
Adjustments to Weapons Jam. Duration and chance.
Purgatory sword now has "No Parry" as damage type. Enemies should no longer be able to successfully block sword attacks. Should simulate the effect of an energy sword, which can cut through anything.
Fix for genestealers that get stuck in the environment when they crawl across the ground.
Tactical Bolter Skull should now deal more damage.
