Posts from A mod featuring creatures from Might & Magic VII!

RRM mod – a rebalancing and retexturing mod.

This mod includes creatures from Heroes of Might and Magic 7.
The mod contains three files.
Each of them replaces something.
Information about what is replaced is below.

I would like to express my great gratitude to:

zahar03, hannik, Ugrul.

And to Footman, just for the support!
Another mod was used for Humans.

The mod includes:
ALL from Humans,
ALL from Necropolis
All from Stronghold.
Mod 2 includes:
Succubi, Destroyers
Bears
Cyclops, Harpies
Mod 3 includes:
almost all from the Academy (regular mages)

Also, Phantom Dragons have been added to the game. They cannot be recruited, but they can be resurrected from living dragons. (Mod 1)
I didn't balance what didn't need balancing, but unfortunately, I couldn't avoid balancing some things:
If you have any ideas on how to improve the mod, feel free to share them.
Phantom Dragons, I forgot to mention, replace Manticores.
The mod has a secret (file 1 and file 3).
I won't tell you what it is; you can figure it out yourself. It is related to Lansknights and Spellcasters.
Installation:
Place the files with the .pak extension in the game folder.
PLAY

NOTES for map editors
When entering the map editor, do not go to the monsters tab; otherwise, the editor will crash. If you open a map with the tab open, the editor will also crash. (Or is it just me?)
This only applies to the first mod.
NOTE
It is advisable to use the second mod together with the first. Why? Because it contains the "Furies" creature. And there are already "Furies" in the game. But if you dig around in the text folder, or rather in the archive, you can fix the problem.
Instructions:
Unpack the archive using WinRAR.
Go to the Text/Game/Creatures/Dungeon folder.
Open the Blood_Witch.txt file and write whatever you want there. This change will not affect the balance, but it will solve the problem.
If files 1 and 2 are installed, no solution is required.

File 1: Homm7Haven, NecropolisAndLigaUnits.pak
File 2: Homm7DEMODandDWARF.pak
File 3: TitansAndGolemMod.pak

Version 1.2
Orcs and Berserkers have been added in place of Centaurs; also, Shamans have been replaced with Centaurs (File 2).

Version 1.5. Dragons have been added to Dwarves.
I took the model from fktifzobr@mail.ru
from the RTF mod. Permission from the author has been obtained (file 2).
Also, resources and mines from Heroes of Might and Magic 7 from the same user have been added. (file 1).
And, as a cherry on top, Gargoyles have been added. They are now single-unit creatures again.
No new screenshots (I'm too lazy to make them).

Version 1.6. A bug with Golems has been fixed, and Djinns have been added.

If someone wants to ask me, "Why can't you extract the models and animations from Heroes of Might and Magic 7 yourself; there's even a guide."

I will answer, "I can't install Maya 2009 for some reason."
If someone can solve this problem, please write to me in a private message.

You can download the mod at the link below.
Screenshots are also there.

Screenshots, please. And the mod (or project) could use a name.

I don't know how to take screenshots.

There's a button called Print Screen.
Does your project have any alternative resources where one could preview its content?

I don't know how to upload them.

There are no alternative resources, and none are planned.

I don't know how to upload it.

Well, I understand. I have the same problems here. That's why my project is hosted on vk.com and Discord.

That's a shame.

You need to switch to advanced mode when writing messages; there will be a button with a paperclip icon. Click on it, and a file upload window will appear, where you can select and upload files.

Screenshots are available; as I mentioned, you can access them via the link, which contains not only the file but also screenshots.

An update is also planned, featuring Orcs and Centaurs, but it won't be available until at least tomorrow.

Thank you very much for the Necropolis, Dungeon, and Haven! I really appreciate it.

You're welcome! I'll start working on the update.

And I just had to create my favorite creature (the Phantom Dragon)!

Orcs and Berserkers have been added, replacing the Centaurs. Also, the Shamanesses have been replaced with Centaurs (File 2).
Screenshot is available there.

Thanks a lot for the orcs, they were neutral for me, now it's even better!

Version 1.5. Dragons have been added to the Dwarves.
The model was taken from fktifzobr@mail.ru
from the RTF mod. Permission from the author has been obtained (file 2).
Resources and mines from Heroes 7, also from the same user, have been added (file 1).
And, as a cherry on top, gargoyles have been added. They are now single-cell creatures again.

If someone wants to ask me, "Why can't you extract the models and animations from Heroes 7 yourself? There's even a guide."

I will answer, "I can't install Maya 2009."

When I hire units, the camera shows me not the Titan, but the sky. The same thing happens with Rakshasas.

The Dungeon faction didn't need to be changed; it's perfect. And according to the lore, the Faceless Ones were already gone by the time of Heroes of Might and Magic V.

The game doesn't have any generic units. (Only lost and soulless ones). But according to the lore, they are machines created by the faceless ones.
I just checked the cameras, and everything seems fine.

I have noticed minotaurs and centaurs, though.

The next update will address the camera issues.
