Posts from About cities.

Hello, friends! I've been playing Heroes ("The Shadow of Death") for several years and have won almost all the single-player games and some campaigns without any tricks. At the same time, I always wondered - I have 8 cities to choose from: Rampart, Castle, Swamp, Stronghold, Inferno, Tower, Dungeon, and of course, Necropolis - why don't I have other factions, for example, where elementals or thieves, trolls, etc. live? Why do these creatures appear in the game, but I can't build the corresponding cities???? What needs to be done to add more cities to my version of the game, or can they be downloaded from somewhere?

there is a castle where elementals live, buy the "Armageddon's Blade" version or download WoG, there is such a castle there, now they are developing the cities of Cove (marine theme), Rampart (Egyptian), Factory (technical) and Grove (night elves), but it is not known when it will be released....(((

P.S.: I am going up the stairs of the Conflux, the castle of elements....

Let's start over; there are a total of 9 Factions, and Thieves do not belong to any faction, just like Boars and Azure Dragons...
As for how to select Conflux in SoD, read about it here:
/topic/3040/

There is also a neutral town in Vogh, but it looks like just a Conflux with modified units. A Russian town and a dark elf town are still under development.

I haven't seen anything like that in Haven, but is it possible to add something like this in the editor? Sorry for the off-topic.

No, maybe it’s possible with scripts, but at least in Heroes of Might and Magic III½, you can add it to the game settings during the Wogification process.

I don't quite understand – if I install the versions using the links above, will another town be added to my version of the game? I don't think that's how it works.

you didn't try to confirm...patches will be installed and will update the game (this is possible), but by installing a different version, you simply install a "new" game, new campaigns will appear, etc., and you can always play the old version by simply launching the desired version, and that's it!

With scripts, you can change all the units in any town. All you need is a special program for this, if you are not familiar with the syntax. If anyone needs it, I can look for it.

I'll look for it; I'll give it to a friend. He likes creating all sorts of sadistic maps, so I'll give it to him as a birthday present.

The thing is, I tried it – there’s no effect; the cities aren’t visible (I opened the link, saved it to my computer, right?). Maybe I need to save the first link first, and then the second – I immediately saved the second one, and it doesn’t work (maybe I saved it in the wrong place?). And in general, guys, explain to a simpleton what a “patch,” “script,” and other terms are – I’ve never encountered such things before, but I played the game myself, using trial and error, and I won everything I wanted. Thanks.

A patch is a small archive that, when unpacked, replaces certain files with newer ones.
Scripts are something like a set of specific commands.
For Conflux, it's best to have the files from "Armageddon's Blade" or simply install SoD over AV.

Just apply the patch for SoD up to version 3.2 (I installed both just in case). Then download the 2 attachments (the notepad file and the archive), do everything that's written in the notepad file, and you can play as Conflux! As for the scripts – well, firstly, all of this is for WoG, but you have SoD. And secondly, it’s quite difficult… /topic/at/109299/

Awesome! Great! I just can't hide my excitement!!! The Conflux has been installed – it's SUPER!!! Thank you SO MUCH!!! And could you install something new – I really enjoyed it :))

To do this, you need to install Heroes of Might and Magic III 3.58f first, and then ask for help from more experienced and knowledgeable PC users. My ICQ number is under the avatar – write to me if you need help! ;) And it's not worth creating a new topic every time;););)
