a little more animation and effects from the Titans.
In the GIF, you can see the attack, damage taken, and death animations of the Titan.

in fact, the bug that the attack animation of a creature from Heroes of Might and Magic 7 does not match how creatures in Heroes of Might and Magic 5 play the animation of taking damage is quite common.
I personally did not find any parameters in the XDB files that could be used to adjust the target creature's response. Therefore, the only way out is to edit the animations manually. Through experience, I found out that the animation of the target creature taking damage corresponds to approximately the frame that is at 58 percent of the attacking creature's attack animation.
i.e., if the entire attack animation lasts 100 frames, the creature will "take damage" at approximately frame 58. If it lasts 200 frames, the damage will be at frame 116, and so on.
This is how I had to edit the animation of the elves.
Original elf attack
With this animation, the target creature "took damage" at the moment when the elves had already finished the attack and put away their sword.
Edited elf attack
With this animation, the target creature "takes damage" when it is hit with a sword.
In the process of working on the mod, I have to fix a lot of such obscure little things that no users will notice.
I want to make everything as good as possible, so everyone who wants to download the mod will have to wait a little.

a little story on the topic
when using the original attack animation of the Titans from Heroes of Might and Magic 7, I had to solve certain problems. The Titan hits too far from the creature. Initially, I tried to add a movement animation (i.e., the Titan takes a step, hits, and then returns) but because of this, the attack timing went completely crazy (i.e., the difference between the impact of the Titan's hit and the animation of the target creature taking damage was very large). Moreover, while fixing this, I completely ruined the animation. i.e., there was too much time between the walk and the hit, the hit was too fast or too slow, in short, I gave up and left the hit where it was. The Titan still hits at a distance from the target creature, but now a green lightning bolt hits the creature itself. I made this effect myself. It seems okay.Added 36 minutes ago
