    Default Warhammer Dark Omen

    Hi guys, while i am eagerly awaiting the release of this mod i started replaying Warhammer Dark Omen (again) there are around 10 active players at the moment and so i launched a forum to try and get everyone together for a few games.

    If any of you guys want to re-live your youth days of gaming i hope you would love to come and join the forum and get involved, we have a modder who is trying to create new units and maps, maybe some of you could even help.

    I have also post a link here because people need to see whats going on here it shouldnt be missed! hope Bwian doesnt mind, i will remove the link if so!

    Just thought i would put it out there if anyone is interested!

    Thanks all.

    Usually threads about non CA games go in the Arena, but since this is aimed at Warhammer fans, I think it can stay here, if it's fine with Bwain.

    Dark Omen is one of the best games I have played.
    Thanks for rekindling all the memories.

    I got no problem with this. As long as it's constructive, and no-one finds it unpalettable.

    I was really tempted to sneak in a "Grudgebringer Mercenary Crossbowman" unit just for kicks and see if anybody noticed the reference while playing the mod

    Damn right its still alive, we have a massive community of around 15 strong! :D

    We currently have 2 guys working on creating a chaos army so we can launch an online Chaos invasion campaign.
    Should be cool.

    It fills the gaps in at least waiting for updates on this mod for total war warhammer, cant wait!

    Lol dark omen was by far my favorite game when i was younger. Unfortunately i couldn't play it anymore on my "new" computer because the screen would flicker irritatingly. Anybody know if that can be fixed anyway?

    I run Dark Omen with Vista and a 24" widescreen moniter and a 8800 GTX and it flickered at first but then just kinda went away for some reason.

    It only flickers now on the ice maps but noone plays those anyway.

    There is a graphics utility program designed to stop the flickering, i will get the link later on :)

    This game brings me great memories of shadow of the horned rat, which then leads to memories of final liberation (I still got final liberation, but horned rat just vanished for 5 years then I found it in tiny pieces...) I've never played dark omen but I should enjoy this

    Edit

    Arrgh, the download site is a lie! it charges me via paypal etc AAHHHH!!!!

    Apparantly that utility isnt to solve the flicker problem i apologise Alletun but your not allowed to play Dark Omen anyway, you need to be chained in a room working on Orcsies for this mod :)

    If you have problem with flickering even in the CPU mode, disable/set anti-aliasing to off in the GFX card control panel.
