Posts from Heroes V - Remake "File restructuring, 'junk' cleanup, and game optimization"

I wanted to ask them for permission to use hero icons from parts 6 and 7 for a free mod for Heroes 5. And they replied that using their content in mods is generally prohibited because it violates the license. Then I started asking them detailed questions about specific points. And in the end, I clarified their attitude towards mods for Heroes 5 in general, since there are a huge number of them, to which they replied that modifications violate clause 3.1 by their very existence.

And I'm a little confused after all this. I look at my project and wonder if it's worth continuing under these circumstances?!

This seems rather dubious. Why would an Ubisoft employee even talk to someone about a game that's 13 years old and probably doesn't bring them millions anymore?

As far as I remember, both Ubisoft and Nival usually ignore attempts to contact them.

At the very least, the person responsible for community relations should respond.
However, whether that person will try to convey any thoughts, suggestions, or wishes from the community to other departments is another matter entirely. So, when I tried to do this a few years ago, it felt like the worst possible call to a call center. Perhaps things have changed, of course.

I had a similar experience. The person responsible for these inquiries forwarded my letter to two employees in charge of this matter, and then one of them gave a POSITIVE response, stating that for non-commercial projects within the framework of their game series, it is permissible to use content from these games!

Sometime ago I tried to contact Nival and Ubisoft to request the use of H5 source code for non-commercial use.

Nival said that their hands are tight without permission from Ubisoft.
Ubisoft did not respond to my e-mail.

When using a licensed version from Uplay (ToE 3.1), the game crashes when creating a map in the map editor.

Thank you for pointing out the error!
I've already fixed it and uploaded the "Remake-Fix (11.07.2018).pak" file to the disk.

Enjoy the game!

Was it possible to redirect the save files and other data to a different path?

Unfortunately, it's not possible right now.

Can it be redirected to the game folder?!
