Hello everyone. I haven't played Heroes for a long time, so I decided to give it another go.
I downloaded it from some website, and it seems to be working, but I can't remember or maybe I need to configure something so that I can, for example, turn centaurs into elf archers. I definitely remember doing this a long time ago in the game, but I can't seem to do it now. Maybe I downloaded something wrong. Please help.

Yes, those were Sylvan centaurs, which are created by crossbreeding centaurs with elves, and they appear not in the original "Heroes 3," but in the "In the Wake of Gods" (WoG) mod. It is installed on "The Shadow of Death," but not on "Complete Collection," and then a Russian language pack is installed on top of that.

Heh, I almost broke my head trying to figure it out. And if it's not too much trouble, could you tell me where to download everything?

Nonsense, I had it installed even on Platinum. And it’s better to download Era, which also includes Wog.

Thanks, I'll reinstall everything now. Wog seems to be running, but it won't let me create a new game, although I can open a saved game. I can't upgrade centaurs to archers, probably because the game was created in a different version, right?

If the save was made in SoD, then Wog could no longer change anything; it's strange that he even opened it.

In short, it seems to have worked, but at some point in the game, it crashes. I set it up for Wog on the collection.

I managed to create improved elves from regular elves, BUT that's not what I wanted. I was trying to do something else a long time ago. For example, I could turn 100 centaurs into 100 elves. I remember having 1000 elves; you go and defeat everyone.

You should have upgraded the centaurs, not the elves! And crashes are inevitable; it's Vog after all.

But centaurs can't be upgraded((((( elves can be upgraded into centaur-elves (Sylvian centaur, I think).
Another thing in Wog, I set it up so that the Capitol can be developed to generate 7000 gold per day. The upgrade function appeared, gold and mithril are deducted upon confirmation of the upgrade, but the daily income doesn't increase(((

The description of the option has all the information – you need to click on the Elves first, then on the Centaurs (or vice versa), and they will merge. However, I haven't used this option myself; I installed the Era scripts rus mod by Algor, where Centaurs upgrade to Sylvan (archers), and Elves upgrade to snipers; the Rampart was my favorite city in Woge. :D
I have never used the option to upgrade the capital city myself, nor have I heard of anyone using it, so I can't say anything about it.

Yes, I swear, I couldn't even find the function where to upgrade centaurs into elves)

Wow, it worked!))) But I didn't do that; I specifically remember that I was turning centaurs into elves, not into some elf-centaurs, but specifically into elf archers; to transform them, you needed gold and the centaurs themselves) there was no experience in the troops, and I don't even remember if there was such a setting in Woge.

As far as I remember (it's been a while since I played WoG), creatures gain additional abilities after accumulating enough experience.
I found a relatively old document on my computer: "Reference Guide for the In the Wake of Gods add-on. WoG-HandBook_v.1.1 (beta)".
Creating Sylvan Centaurs.
Script 00, option 009, Author: Slava Salnikov
This option allows Rampart heroes to create Sylvan Centaurs for free by combining High Elves and Centaur Captains.
A Sylvan Centaur has the following parameters: attack 10, defense 5, damage 4-6, health 15, speed 8, attack 24, Double Shot.
To create Sylvan Centaurs, hold down Ctrl and click on any unit of High Elves or Centaur Captains. The creatures will combine in a 1:1 ratio, i.e., if you have, for example, 42 Centaur Captains and 14 High Elves, you will end up with 14 Sylvan Centaurs and 28 Centaur Captains.
If option 900 "Creature Experience System" is active, Sylvan Centaurs will lose all the experience accumulated by the High Elves and Centaur Captains, but after that, they will gain experience as usual.
Creature Experience System.
Script 00, option 900, Author: Slava Salnikov
A global option that fundamentally changes the hero leveling system, the use of creatures, and their tactical advantages.
With option 900 active, creatures led by a hero will gain experience after each battle and can increase in rank, developing their parameters and/or abilities. Bonuses will only be visible in battle and may vary for each type of creature. Creatures without a hero do not gain experience...
The current rank (if > 0) is displayed as yellow birds (the ^ symbol) on the full image of the creature above the numbers
indicating the unit size. Five birds are replaced by an image of a sword. The maximum 10th rank is 2 swords...
Further, from the table, it follows that Centaurs gain the ability to shoot, and also: No penalty in melee combat, Additional damage against Gnolls.
In general, there are many things invented there that become apparent after playing on one map for a sufficiently long time. But WoG is better discussed in the appropriate section.

centaurs turned into elves
Some kind of fan-made script, I guess. As far as I remember, this never happened in the original game.
P.S. Maybe the moderators can move the topic to the appropriate section.

Well, it definitely wasn't made by a fan! Because it's described in the official reference guide. Read it again: "Script 00, option 009, Author: Slava Salnikov." He was one of the leading developers of WoG. And yes, it was in the regular WoG.
