All sorts of people play Paragon. It's like a living museum:smile28:

By the way, I recently saw screenshots of the mini-map for the upcoming "Paragon 3.0". So, as they say in the joke about the internet being turned off, those who haven't downloaded version 2.0 yet should hurry! :) The new version will be more challenging, and not everyone will be able to complete it!

Here's some more news about "Paragon 3.0". The new version will definitely not be released in 2018, but the author revealed some details.
when I opened the map again, I realized that I was completely dissatisfied with what I had done - it turned out to be too un-Chinese.
:D

Just to clarify, I'm going to upload the new version separately – precisely because of the significant difference in difficulty.

And this is the most correct decision. I will definitely try to master Paragon 2.0 someday. I decided: since you don't write here about working on a new version, I'll share what I learned from another source. Happy New Year, by the way!

Hello everyone, and happy New Year!
I'm a bit flattered that I'm receiving private messages with questions about the Paragon map.
But, unfortunately, I can't help in any way, as I don't have time to play, and most importantly, I played the old version, and I haven't really had a chance to properly try out the updated version...

By the way, WSW wrote an excellent guide on how to complete it.

Well, even version 2.0 isn't that easy.

A large interview with the author and screenshots of version 3.0:

Since the question has been asked a couple of times here: "Can this map be completed in HotA?", I will copy the information from HeroesPortal:
An experiment to complete the Paragon map in the Horn of the Abyss add-on has begun! Sir alexmaler decided to conduct an experiment and complete this map in the "Horn of the Abyss" add-on. Let's see if he can do it – watch his video! We suggest you check it out:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Part 5
Part 6
In fact, as far as I remember, there is at least one place that is impossible to complete in HotA (the magic source in cell 126.56, which cannot be reached by water), so the question can already be considered answered. But let's not forget that there are still those who like to "bite the cactus"... :)
Update: I have now found out that the video author is already aware of the problem (he was informed by other players) and has started playing again in SoD.
Here is what user ccbb wrote in the comments under the video:
Paragon cannot be completed in HotA. Unless you have a special version of Paragon for HotA. But this version is not from the author. In version 1.5 of HotA, some features also do not work. You need to play in the classic full collection version - SoD.

problem with enemy heroes:
I reach the last swamp castle, the Ghashra opens, but for some reason, it doesn't want to jump into the portal (I've been ending turns for a week, and it just stands there).
I kill the Etheria, I reach the city with the Titans, I open two gate guardians, but the creatures don't come out of the castle into the portal.
And the saddest thing is, when I reach the orange faction (the Devil's Castle), they don't come out of the portals to attack my cities, which prevents me from completing the map.
Heroes 3 version with HD Mod + SoD_SP.
For the last playthrough, I downloaded the map again.

Have you configured SoD_SP? Have you tried disabling SoD_SP and skipping turns without it? Also, try disabling HD+ to see if there's a difference. And just in case, I'll ask: what difficulty level are you playing on? The AI can behave differently at different difficulty levels, and it's possible that on easy and normal, it "cowers" and doesn't do something it should to advance the plot.

Thank you... indeed, disabling SoD_SP and HD+ made the enemy heroes start moving.
Now, another question: how do I configure SoD_SP so that it doesn't need to be reconfigured in each new game? Where do I do that?
P.S.: Should I replay Paragon because of the newly discovered "possibilities"?))))

thank you.... after actually disabling SoD_SP and HD+, the enemy heroes started moving
and now another question, how to configure SoD_SP so that it doesn't need to be reconfigured in each new game? where should I do this?
ps: should I replay Paragon because of the newly discovered "possibilities"?))))
Can you send me a save file where the AI is not moving as expected?

I try not to alter AI algorithms when fixing bugs, but sometimes they have unforeseen consequences. By studying saves with problems, I can improve SoD_SP.

Typically, you can press F12 to modify options and save them for later use.

Here’s a quick save I made.
Personally, I found that after killing the devil and ending the turn, nothing happened.
But if you disable SoD_SP, enemy heroes immediately attack your cities.
P.S.: I made the save quickly, without finding the Grail, without assembling the Angel Alliance, without rebuilding the army/artifacts/heroes, so it’s not very playable.

Thanks, which version are you using?
On my development version (1.16) they all leave except the guy with radius 4.

Спасибо, какую версию вы используете?
На моей версии разработки (1.16) все они уходят, кроме парня с радиусом 4.

Hello everyone!
Has anyone experienced a situation where some of the troops disappear? I'm playing with the HD mod and noticed that sometimes, after an auto-battle, it says there are no losses, but the number of troops decreases.
Also, have anyone's artifacts disappeared? I can't seem to find the amulet of life for one of the hut missions. I remember it was supposed to be with Okulina.
