After the failure of my last post due to improper wording which made me sound like a pirate (for which I apologize to all Dakka members cause I don't want any legal trouble for this wonderful site), I've decided to ask if anyone could help me solve this problem: Last summer I was modding DoWDC and did a whole lot of work to make it fit my apocalyptic needs but unfortunately my computer died a couple weeks ago and I lost it all. I've been trying to get it all back but my modding skills have gotten a little bit rusty and I screwed up something in the c:\program files\thq\darckcrusade\w40k file and would like some help, I would like to ask for an unedited version of the w40k file (not the whole game file as that would be pirating) but I don't know if thats legal either so does anyone know how to fix this cause I've already done some modding and I don't want to have to reinstall the game and lose what I've already done.

This is probably best placed in Video Games...

I would say copy your save files and reinstall the game friend.

back it all up, reinstall the game and then restore the back up. It should overwrite the reinstalled files with your backed up modded ones but leave the new w40k intact.

You should probably ask this on the RelicNews mod forums. They're likely to give you better modding help there.

For the modding part, http://forums.relicnews.com/forumdisplay.php?96-Dawn-of-War-Adeptus-Modificatus is the best place to look.

If the fixes suggested here don't help with your current issue, you can use http://forums.relicnews.com/forumdisplay.php?125-Dawn-of-War-Technical-Assistance

Just find a better way to word your posts, since it's the largest (IIRC) community forum for Relic, and has several members of the Relic team (both past and present members) posting, you will find they have absolute zero tolerance for warez (and not without good reason).

Yeah and thanks for the ideas everyone. Ugh I wish I had made a stupid backup the first time.
