Posts from Discussion about the map editor for Heroes 5.

Check for Cyrillic characters in the path to the Heroes folder. For example, the path should not be c:\Игры\Heroes5. It is also recommended to install the latest patches.

Check if there are any Russian characters in the path to the Heroes folder. For example, it shouldn't be c:\Игры\Heroes5. Also, it's recommended to install the latest patches.

What other path...:mad: Mine saves maps with a size of 1Kb instead of 200 or 400! And regarding patch 2.1, I have it, but it won't install! It says it can't find the game! I think I have an incomplete version of the game, 2.0! And I don't want to play the old version 1.3 (it's a licensed version and patches can be installed) without the Dwarves anymore!

Sorry, Alan! :o Everything worked out as soon as I renamed the folder from Russian to English and reinstalled the game! And also, "Thank you"!!! :)

I have a problem! New maps are automatically submitted. IT’S ANNOYING (please don’t suggest re-registration).

I have a problem! New maps are automatically submitted. It's annoying (don't suggest re-uploading).

Can I ask a question? :) Where are the new maps automatically submitted to? :rolleyes:

Tips:
#1: First, place the castles.
#2: Create the landscape.
#3: Place the objects.
#4: Add artifacts.
#5: Arrange monsters in a chain.
#6: Place heroes (if you want).
#7: Go to the settings and balance the map (adjust lighting, map name, etc.).
#8: Appreciate your creation and be sure to ask close friends or anyone else to check out your map and give you feedback.
#9: TEST THE MAP YOURSELF AND FIX ANY BUGS!
That's all!

Why do you need 81 maps?

Why do you need 81 maps?

What do you think? Probably to play...
And to play for a very long time and enjoy it! :rolleyes:

HEY! And I create maps myself and use a map generator.

I would swap item #1 and item #2.

I have Heroes of Might and Magic 5, version 2.1. The editor is the original English version, also 2.1. As far as I can tell, I'm quite capable. But the Heroes editor surprised me with its clunkiness and inconvenience. I just can't seem to get along with it. For example, it's impossible to set a random Castle to appear after a certain time has passed since editing the map. Plus, there are some issues with moving these Castles; sometimes I have to manually change the coordinates of a "Castle" object. I could only create a Shipyard in one Castle; if I rotate it, the game immediately says that it's impossible to build a Shipyard in that Castle. Maybe I'm just not very bright, but it seems to me that the editor is overly complex. To do simple things "on the fly," I have to dig through various Manuals. In general, I'm interested in the opinions of people who actively build their own maps: how do you overcome all these problems? I decided to create a couple of ideas for Heroes here, but so far, nothing is working out. Maybe there are some good explanations of all these issues on the internet.
Thank you for your attention :) It turned out to be some kind of emotional outburst :)

Uh... what is the purpose of this thread? Please describe the specific question or problem, otherwise the thread will be deleted.

I have Heroes of Might & Magic V - Hammers of Fate 2.0 installed. I can't build maps. More precisely, I can't select objects and change the terrain (change the grass)! Everywhere it's empty; I've already tried using the object filter and installing the Russian language pack, but nothing helps. I also have Heroes 5: Throne of the King, and the editor there works fine. Please help! PLEASE! :(:(:(:s
You'll probably suggest mapping in that editor (Throne of the King) and then putting the maps into Hammers of Fate... BUT NO, I WANT DWARVES AND I WANT SNOW!

1) Throne won't be suggested because it's a pirated version; I haven't even seen such a miracle living in Moscow. :)
2) Is your game a licensed copy? If not, we probably won't be able to help. :)

2) Do you have a licensed copy of the game? If not, we probably won't be able to help.

It's 100% licensed.

I live in Ukraine, and even stranger things happen here.
