Any success modding Boltgun, yet?
I'll take a look myself later today, but busy eating lunch right now. Just wanted to see if anyone else had checked to see if any game modifications are possible, even simple ones.

I've played thru the first two levels already on Exterminatus Difficulty, and there are a few attributes of the enemies I would like to adjust to add to the challenge, if possible, such as increasing the speed of their boltgun projectiles.

Thanks. Hopefully will see some mods soon, even basic ones. I wouldn't mind a few configuration-only mods at first to tweak the enemy difficulty (make some of them tougher).

Hello :)
Since I can already see that you are actively trying to mod the game, may I invite you to our Discord Server, Warhammer Unreal Engine Games Modding? In the next few days and weeks there may be a few other interested people. And additional support and experience is welcome. Kind regards, Marold

I tried to unpack the game's PAK file, using an opensource Unreal pak tool, but it appears to need a key, as it gave nothing but errors on the attempt to extract the game's assets.

The decryption key should be present in the game's EXE file. I guess we'll have to wait for someone to figure out what the decryption key is, as I'm not an expert on that.

Nick from my Discord says he extract the pak allready.
He used Unrealpak from the Unreal Engine 4.27.2, Loaded from Epic Games.

Yep, it's not the only retro shooter using UE4. They still should have used GZDoom, KEX or Build engines though. :P

I just wanted to replace the music with some Bolt Thrower and was disappointed that for the time being it's unmoddable.

This all depends on Games Workshop.

Curious if the player character has a sprite model...don't recall ever seeing it.

Oh boy what a choice, slaughtering Chaos while go ol 'No Guts, No Glory' is pounding in the background sounds like a A* tier time!

You can always play music from Spotify or some other source, and just mute the in-game music. I do that all the time.
