Annoyingly hard to download and locate it in the net considering its mostly vanished after so long, managed to find a copy of the dload from a russian site myself.

You need to add the command line "-dev" without the "" marks into the steam launch from properties of the game, and put the "campaign" folder from the WargearUnlocker mod into your DOW2/GameAssets/Data

Nowhere in the internet is this plainoly explained in proper english. Took me an hour. After it was done, my desire to actually play the game had vaned away! Finished it so many times, even toying with -all- the gear felt like a moot point. >.>
Thank you very much, I tried it with this mode back before in the day but I couldn't find ita again today to rejoice in the fun
So found it on the russian site, put it in the game data, and I couldn't have anything unlocked...

Reminder, the archive you dload has a file structure of its own - so when you unzip/unrar it the base folder is "WargearUnlocker" and only after that comes "Data" and inside that "Data" folder is the actual folder "campaign" which you need to copypaste into the GameAssets/Data of the dawn of war installation. And this is the part where so many get mixed up, me including! Thinking I just needed to extract the zip in to the Data folder and call it good, heh.

Goddangit, somehow I am making this sound even complicated in my own brain. Hold on, let me put it to a step by step guide on how I got it to work.

1. Go to http://dawnofwar.org.ru/load/chaos_rising_campaign_wargear_unlocker_1_01/12-1-0-546

2. Download the [ Скачать с сервера (10.7Kb) ]

3. Use 7zip program to extract the 546_wargear_unlocke.zip contents into steamapps/common/Dawn Of War 2/GameAssets/Data

4. Go to the steamapps/common/Dawn Of War 2/GameAssets/Data folder and find the new folder now created there, /WargearUnlocker

5. Go inside the /WargearUnlocker/Data folder and find the folder called /campaign

6. Copy and paste the /campaign folder from the /WargearUnlocker/Data into steamapps/common/Dawn Of War 2/GameAssets/Data

7. In steam go to Dawn Of War 2 Chaos Rising properties, and set Launch Options to be "-dev" without the ""'s

8. Start up Chaos Rising, start a new campaign and you find out if it works from seeing wether Cyrus gets frag grenades in the beginning.

9. ???

10. Profit!

Just wanted to ask you if the mod you provided contains the "Tomes"?? I guess. That increase vitality, ranged and the other stuff.

Thank you so much Wizu -- can confirm this works perfectly. You are a saint... not even hint of chaos taint on you :p

Can i unlock achievement while using this mod?
Squigidy_Newt Feb 27, 2020 @ 7:24pm 
I followed the steps Wizu posted above but every time i try and launch a new Chaos Rising campaign, My Force Commander and Cyrus start with their awful wargear from like the first level of DoW II. I cant get past the first mission in Chaos Rising because I get rinsed by the A.I. so something funky has happened when I moved the files around like Wizu outlined
Wizu Feb 29, 2020 @ 1:10pm 
You need to survive the first mission for all to be unlocked, try lowering difficulty for the first mish?

Long live DoW 2!

Low key I'm confused. So I don't get anything if I port over an existing story mode to chaos rising. I only get the wargear if I start new?
Regicide Dec 24, 2021 @ 2:03pm 
It's been a while sine I last played the game, but it should work on both. Did you just tried it first?

I've been trying to get it to work most of the day. If I port over a story I completed on Normal DowII, and use it to start my story for chaos rising, All characters start with no gear. And when I finish the first mission, there is only the LVL 20 gear.
