Sweet thanks for the quick reply.

Doesn't need the 6.0 update, the mod is fine and don't need to return anywhere because it's already here.
Yeah, even if the launcher says "outdated".

Hope to see this make a comeback

Update: my investigation resulted in a whole lot of nothing, sadly.
I still don't know if this change to the Steam Tank Turret's hatch door position is either a bug or an intended and permanent change that CA "forgot" to communicate.
As such I have decided to "fix" the issue by forcing the hatch to stay half opened and vertical as it should be.

So, I'm not 100% sure yet, but there is currently a visual issue with this custom Steam tank turret's hatch door being fully opened and horizontal when it should be just half opened and vertical and this is causing major clipping issues.
The thing is that I manage to replicate the same issue with vanilla Steam tanks.
It's currently unclear to me if this is a bug or yet another change from CA: I'm still not sure if I need to fix this by myself or wait for another CA's hotfix.
I'll keep you posted.

Found the issue, will push the update soon.

Hey, thanks for the awesome mod!
I´m on a Malakai campaign atm and noticed a bug. Maybe it comes from a conflict with other mods, but I noticed when upgrading either the smithy or the engineering building from T4 to T5 i can no longer recruit the tanks in that region.

As a custom mount?
No, not from me at least.
As it stated in the QA's section of this mod at the "Any chance to get units/heroes/lords on top of those tanks?" question, I made it clear that I generally don't care for custom mounts.
You can recruit this unit with Malakai through the Dwarf Engineer and the Spirit of Grungni's Artillery Workshop building chains, though.

Could it be possible to provide this as a mount option for engineers and malakai?

adding steamtanks directional armor would be cool! take your time! cheers

Didn't mean to make it seem like I am rushing you! Sorry.

I'm quite literally still downloading ToD.
I'll update/fix my mods when I'll be able.
Have some patience.
Fixing my Steam Tank mods will probably take additional time considering what was changed.

Can has tank again???

The wrong shall be righted! HONOUR IS ALL!!!!!!!!!

ZERG FOREVERRRR

It is with a heavy heart that I must inform you that I will not be updating any of my mods in time for the Chorfs update because my potato PC has finally left me after years of honoured service.
I have already found a replacement, but since I still need to know the shipment data and because of other shenanigans going on, I can't give you an exact ETA on when I'll be back.
You have my full permission to take and update any of my mods, but keep in my mind that I'll be back eventually and I'm going to update the OG ones.
Now I know that some of you might want to leave a comment to cheer me up or ask me some questions but please DO NOT do that and keep the comment section clean so that people can read this comment and understand why I'm not updating my stuff.
Thanks for all the support and see you again when my new rig arrives.

Thanks!
Submod linked in description.

I created a korean translation mod. Can you apply the link in the description corner?

A smoking dwarf!

@Autumnchain No.
I simply took inspiration from ChaosRobie's Dwarf Juggernaut mod and then worked with the Dwarf's battering ram vanilla model by adding stuff and remapping the ram's skeleton to fit the steam tank's skeleton.
If you want something that resembles ChaosRobie's Dwarf Juggernaut more closely (visually speaking) you should give Snek's Dawi Thunder and its Grudge Tank a shot.

Is this a port/remake of the TWW2 Dwarf Juggernaut mod?

I don't know how, sorry.
That process is either managed by specific tables or scripts.
It's not the same thing but consider using these mods if you like rune systems:
-Runes of the Karaz Ankor - Unit Upgrades for the Dwarfs https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2861146358
-Runes of the Karaz Ankor Submod https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2884052465 which make these custom units compatible with that system.

any way to make the runes work with them? like the artillery runes you can cast?

Yes, they are available for AI too.
If it's going to actually recruit them or not it's entirely up to the AI though.

good and available for ai?

thank you, I like the mod idea so i'll just go with they updated it cause machine or something like that to help me cope lmao, looks great tho!

This version is completely fan made.
The closest thing to a Dwarf Steam Tank in lore is the Dwarf Juggernaut from second edition.

Is this lore accurate or a fan made idea?

Always felt the dwarves deserved a true steam tank of their own :)

Running this with the Thunderbarge mod will be incredible

Wow, really cool unit ! As a greeny I will have more things to destroy.

That's... so...fucking.... BEATIFUL!!! The Ancestors shall protect you, lad!

it is so f**king cool!

Absolutely love this unit!

@zerg93
Thank you for the permission to use your assets in a compilation!
You are free to use any of my assets if you like something out of there :)

@Ben Nope.
You'll have to wait for a mount submod.
Well at least IF someone makes one, since I generally don't make custom mount mods (and this one would probably also need some meddling with the unit's animation and I also don't make custom animations) so don't expect a mount submod from me.

Now we grudge settling...
Does the Engineer get mount options?

@kyokamaru Well...did you take a look at that Known Issues list my dude?
You should have expected some jank.
I'm sorry that you don't like the mod but if I could have fixed that stuff on my own I would have done so BEFORE releasing the mod itself.
I'm just an amateur here, so if you want great looking units with no jank I suggest you to stick with CA and/or professional modders.

@A Peasant Mobster Thanks but i don't do collabs for multiple reasons of my own.
I'm very open with my content though so you can put my stuff in any compilation you want, use/alter my custom assets, make any kind submods ecc...
You have my permission.

the model has very little details awful textures and looks pretty janky....

It really just needs some crank gunners on the top and some working brimestone turrets and it would be an amazing centrepiece model to be excited about!

@zerg93 I actually like your mod better than ChaosRobie's!

@zerg93
Might be worth it to ask on The Modders Den or asking the Dwarf Borer guy, Phoenix, about the animations. It might just be that someone will want to help you out with animations.
I am talking to people ATM, thinking of maybe making a compilation of the best Dwarf mods (for better compatibility, taking less space on people's modlists, easier support etc), obviously only if the modders want to participate. There is only so much you can do by yourself, and it can be better to play to people's strengths. For example, I can do graphical work, but I hate working with the tables. I collaborated with Derpy Noob and our mod inspired a YouTuber with 70K subscribers to make a video about it :)
I know that some people prefer to work alone, but I would rather do unit cards, icons and textures for 5 different units than spend hours to learn how to make animations work.
If you are interested, let me know in DM!

Glad that you like it!
I still hope to eventually see ChaosRobie's Dwarf Juggernaut mod ported here on this workshop though.

Nice to see the Dwarf Juggernaut mod is back in spirit.

@Apex Thanks! Linked in description.
@n.pedrazalis I would really like to put thunderers/similar units on them but that's most likely not possible without meddling with the units' animation.
And I don't make custom animations.

Updated Runes of the Karaz Ankor Submod

Hello i love the mod , i dont know if is difficult to add a small modification at this point , this tanks are my dream come true , i would suggest to put 2 thunderers on the top of all the tanks each side behind the 2 main canon in the middle of the tank so they shoot occasionally would be cool if you have some time thank you,i would support as fast as i get paid

This is some Sean Connery Zardoz s*** right here
can't wait

My dream come true thank you

amazing
