Installer Alpha 8.14 (http://www.moddb.com/mods/exterminatus/downloads/exterminatus-alpha-814-installer) (578,582 KB)

Zip File Alpha 8.14 (http://www.moddb.com/mods/exterminatus/downloads/exterminatus-alpha-patch-814-zip) (20,732 KB)

The FTP is on the blink again, so i'm relying on ModDB to authorise and distribute this version.

Install the Source SDK Base 2013 Multiplayer
  • Navigate to the "Tools" section on your Steam games "Library"
  • Install the "Source SDK Base 2013 Multiplayer"
  • Run the Source SDK Base 2013 Multiplayer at least once.
  • You can exit once the menu has finished loading.

Install the latest Exterminatus Alpha
  • If you already have a copy of the EX alpha, delete it.
  • Run the alpha installer and follow it's instructions.
  • Restart Steam.  You should now see both the Exterminatus Beta 8 and Exterminatus Alpha listed in your library.

Balance
  • Nerfed meltagun damage from 30 to 22.

Bug fixes
  • Fixed an exploit with breakable objectives on ex_valley an ex_city_conflict.

Tweaks
  • New marine battlecry by Stormwolf 597 (http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198040995897/)
  • Increased the volume of the warrior death sound.
  • Updated ex_wreckage map by newbie mapper Straydoom, based on early feedback from alpha 8.13.
  • Updated ex_m_3 map with basic lighting and increased architectural detail (still no textures).
  • Updated ex_city_conflict (minor tweaks to the bio-materials objective).

I am continuing to re-work the chapter packs to cope with Blood Ravens being the new default chapter.  Two more chapters are done:
