Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate

One of the best and most frustrating games I've ever played. And no small share of that frustration was the bugs... If the game crashes randomly during play, one possible cause is an old bug in the game files. One of the sound files was called something like LasPistol.wav (or something like that, I remember it was las- or laser-something) but in one of the config files the file was called Laspistol.wav (note the capitalization!) and this mismatch caused the game to crash. I can't remember the exact details bu... Forget that, found the topic. http://www.compatdb.org/forums/topic/46630-wh40k-chaos-gate-solution-to-the-cultist-bug/ *sic* *** SOLUTION TO THE CULTIST BUG *** After examining the WeapDef.dat file under the Data folder I've found out how to solve the infamous cultist bug. YOU NEED TO START A NEW GAME FOR THE CHANGES TO TAKE EFFECT (or it may be enough to save again, but I haven't tested) 1. Open WeapDef.dat in the Data folder under the Chaos Gate folder. 2. Find the section containing the Laspistol. 3. Change "PlazPistHit.wav" to "PlazpistHit.wav" (note the lower case 'p'). 4. Save. 5. Start a new game. Enjoy your cultists without CTD. */sic*

Loved the game growing up doesnt seem to work on widows 10 still so I can only review the GOG version hopefully its fixed at some point

I have wanted a decent version of this game for so long that doesnt require 1000 diffferent special tricks to load the game, finally the game loads up and plays with a click of a button...unfortunately the mouse stutters along all the time, exteremly infuriating. Hope they either fix this problem soon, or someone posts a trick. i had the same dramas with panzer general 2..that fix didnt work.

This game is a great strategy game for fans of Warhammer 40k. Yes, the graphics are outdated (1024x768 resolution), and the game sometimes slows down a lot, especially when showing tooltips. But once you have mastered all the shortcut keys, it delivers a great 40k experience. At the start, you only get to use regular space marines, but you do get to kit them out with weapons. LAter, you can also uses Terminators and Predators, among others. For people who cannot get it to work on Windows 10: Try copying 'dplayx.dll' from the windows/syswow64 folder into the chaos gate game folder (where WH40K.exe is located). This should make the game start properly.

make battlefield 1942 with mods/patches playible again... the first and only battlefield.. and more old school games so the neww generation can see what we had to struggle with.. hahahaha
