Posts from What is Wog?

Heroes of Might and Magic 3.5: In the Wake of Gods (commonly referred to as simply In the Wake of Gods or Wake of Gods, WoG) is an unofficial, non-commercial expansion for the computer game Heroes of Might and Magic III. Currently, WoG is being developed by an international group of Heroes III fans, known as the WoG team. WoG includes several significant changes compared to the standard version of Heroes III, including:

• the ERM scripting language, which allows map creators to control almost any aspect of the game based on the player's actions (this allows for a complete transformation of the gameplay – for example, ERM can be used to create a completely RPG-like map);
• a set of ready-made ERM scripts that can be applied to newly created random maps of the game;
• the addition of commanders – special creatures that represent heroes on the battlefield, which, like the heroes themselves, can develop and gain new skills;
• the ability for ordinary creatures to gain experience (as creatures gain experience, they level up and acquire new properties);
• the ability to destroy cities and build new ones in their place;
• a number of new creatures, artifacts, and objects on the map;

and much more.
As of October 2005, the latest version of WoG is 3.58f. The next version – 3.59 – is planned to include, among other things, the addition of a new city (Bastion) with a full set of creatures and heroes.
The WoG project has gained considerable popularity among Heroes III fans, especially those who were dissatisfied with the fourth installment in the series – Heroes of Might and Magic IV. It is worth noting that this project (as well as Equilibris – an unofficial expansion for Heroes IV) has received some recognition from the current owner of the Heroes series – the French company Ubisoft (for some time, there was even talk of possibly transferring the game's source code to the WoG team)

Heroes 3.59 WOG will be the last version of the WOG series!!!

A friend of mine was talking about some "Heroes 3.75" and even promised to bring them... I haven't seen him for about three days, but he was very confident about it. And what's the difference between 3.58 and 3.5?

And also: when will 3.59 be released?

Most likely, your friend mistook one of the many fakes for WOG. It is recommended to download the real WOG only from the official project website.
Also, be wary of scammers who will try to sell you the "latest version," "amazing sequel to WOG," etc. WOG has always been and remains a free project, so any attempts to profit from the selfless work of more than 60 fans of the game, we hope, will be met with appropriate skepticism.

The difference between 3.51 and 3.58 is roughly the same as between a Zaporozhets and a Mercedes. I recommend that you install only version 3.58f, as this is the most stable and playable version at the moment.

It’s best to get WoG from a reliable source! Otherwise, you may encounter problems during installation or launching the game.
Besides the aforementioned official resource about WoG, you can find information here:

There is also a modification of the game called TE (currently version 1.03f), most tournaments are played on it; essentially, it's SoD, but improved using WoG tools.
You can read about TE on our forum here /topic/88/, or ask your questions to one of the creators (Horn - a user of our forum!);)

WoG Patch 3.57f -> 3.58 (08/25/04)
Here's what's new when upgrading from WoG 3.57f to 3.58

* The HTML document describing all the new WoG features has finally been updated.
* WoG 3.58 has twice as many WoG-ification settings compared to version 3.57f!
* Now you can save and load WoG options by giving the files normal names.
* New Feature: Troops also accumulate experience and gain new properties.
* New Feature: Artifacts for troops!
* New Creatures! Four new creatures have been added to the game: Sorceress, Sylvan Centaur, the fiery and playful Hell Steed, the fearsome Werewolf, and the even more terrifying Dracolich.
* New Artifacts! Five new artifacts appear in WoG 3.58: the Warlords Banner; Crimson Shield of Retribution; Dragonheart; the Barbarian Lord's Axe of Ferocity; and Town Gate Key.
* New ERM commands in abundance! Version 3.58 adds a large number of new triggers in ERM, receivers, and additional commands, as well as a new set of temporary 'y-' variables designed for triggers.

I still play them, I really like it. The new update is great.

Good afternoon! Could you please tell me how far my "Heroes 3.5 - Life vs. Death" disc from Booki is from being compatible with WOG, and what I need to do to upgrade my version?

Hey! Am I the only one visiting this site? Or is everyone so busy and important that they can’t be bothered to reply?

I don't really like WOG for many reasons, but there are also some positive aspects...

3.5 is very far from 3.58

Thank you all for answering my question! I've figured it out myself.
Hoping for more responsive fellow players, I'd like to ask:
I'm trying to play on the WoG maps that came with the "Life vs. Death" disc, but the game crashes after a while. Does anyone know why?

when should you check the box to request a VOG (Verified Online Game) version?

And where is that? In which place should I put this checkmark? And another question: how much does the 3.58 add-on weigh?

Where is this? Which checkbox are you referring to?
And another question: how big is the 3.58 add-on?

When you select a map and click "start," a loading screen appears, and during the loading process, a window pops up offering to "vogue-ify" the map. :) :) :)
I don't remember exactly, but I think the full version of 3.57 is about 35 MB. 3.58 is probably the same:)
