Has taken a while to make sense of the 'paper trail' through all the old threads and different versions after all these years so correct me if I'm wrong on and anything and
please let me know if you have the missing files and I can arrange new hosting here at CivFanatics and elsewhere to make sure they're not lost again..
There was originally a Warhammer Fantasy Battles for Vanilla Civ 4 released and then later removed due to being superseded.
Then there was a Warhammer Fantasy Battles for Civ4 Warlords released with a extra sound addon which had it's
own separate thread here. However sadly the downloads are long gone, there's no webarcive backups and
these releases have been lost.
Then there was a Warhammer Fantasy Battles for Civ4 Beyond The Sword 3.17 released using FFH in a
old separate thread here by
@Ploeperpengel . Good news is I have fixed the broken image and downloads for version 0.13 and Patch E here & on the download page so
thankfully this version is not lost. However it is highly unstable due to being a beta and for a older version of Civ4 BTS. There was a Patch F in the making but it was not released.
Presumably while in the process of making Patch F the project was merged with the Warhammer Mini mod project by
@Psychic_Llamas which had it's
own separate thread here. He did a 1.2 release and was up to a Patch C however sadly despite using the
atomic gamer archive trick I was unable to rescue either file and
these releases have been lost.
Presumably the merger project originally kept the Warhammer Fantasy Battles name but took on the Mini projects version numbers and had a 1.4 release with a extra sound addon in this very thread you're reading this in now. However sadly the filefront downloads are long gone and
these releases have been lost. According to
the filefront webarchive backup page the download was called Warhammer_1.4.zip and was 201.31 MB. There was a Patch A released however it broke the mod and was removed from the thread but
the download remains here. There was a Patch B in the making with a long list of changes but it was not released.
Presumably while in the process of making Warhammer Fantasy Battles 1.4 patch B they pivoted again and had a new version 1.5 release with a extra sound addon in a
new separate thread here. Although the thread text doesn't match the thread title and says version 0.03 Alpha just to make things extra confusing lol, and I can see in
the webarchive backup page that the original thread text said 1.5 as well so presumably the version numbers were 'back changed' with a future project name change. Sadly despite using the
atomic gamer archive trick I was unable to rescue the files and
these releases have been lost. There this a
Patch A and a
Patch B (not mentioned in the thread) hosted on CivFanatics but they are useless without the original main version 1.5 (0.03 Alpha) release.
Presumably while in the process of making Warhammer Fantasy Battles 1.5 (0.03 Alpha) patch B they pivoted again and the project was renamed to Warhammer Heart of Chaos, the a new version system was implemented, and had a new version 0.04 Alpha release with a extra sound addon in a
new separate thread here. This is apparently the first version of the project compatible with Civ4 Beyond The Sword 3.19 (all the earlier versions including up to 1.5/0.03 Alpha will crash). However sadly the Megaupload downloads are long gone, there's no webarcive backups and
these releases have been lost. There this a
Patch A hosted on CivFanatics and a Patch B on Megaupload
meaning it's also lost, but they are useless without the original main version 0.04 Alpha release. This appears to be the final version of the project so it is a real shame that both this release and it's final patch are currently lost!
EDIT: Looks like there were 0.01 and 0.02 Alpha releases between Warhammer Fantasy Battles 1.5 and Warhammer Heart of Chaos 0.03 Alpha after all! Using the
atomic gamer archive trick I was I was able to rescue their files so
thankfully this version is not lost. However I'm not sure yet if they're compatible with BTS 3.19 as we know it happened after 1.5 and before 0.03 Alpha.
Download and more details here.
So if anyone happens to have the final Warhammer Heart of Chaos 0.04 Alpha release and Patch B & it's sound addon, or the previous 0.03 Alpha release, or even the earlier Warhammer Fantasy Battles 1.5 or 1.4 versions
please let me know and I can arrange new hosting here at CivFanatics and elsewhere to make sure they're not lost again.
