My problem is, no matter what I do I get a 404 on the wepack_hmr and I can't for the life of me work out why its not available.

It takes me its running but its not :/
Ok just so its easy for people to see what I did to get it working here it is:
I think it was easier for me to completely remove scss and just go with css modules out of the box. This seemed to help a lot.
I used git@github.com:christianalfoni/webpack-express-boilerplate.git to help me guide myself through. Knowing I had a working thing actually taught me a hell of a lot more than I have most likely learnt before hand in webpack. As you can guess that wasn't very much :D
Also the one main change that really helped was changing the paths not surprisingly. But these were relative to the path sex in output.path I had read this before but thought that was relative to the wepack.config.js not that from there on everything would count as document root, even for the html and css.
**KEY PART :) **
I also have to update my express set up, as I hadn't given it a express.static path... Oh my folly, how could I miss such a basic thing.. So:
Express
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public/')); //Don't forget me :(

I have actually posted the same answer twice. But they are both related. Sadly :(
