This is awesome!!! It would be great to have Landsknechts in version 5!
Footman, huge respect!

It would be great to have Landsknechts in the 5th game!

I was also thinking about that, but it's inconvenient to keep asking for it :(

I would actually finish the mod myself, and both Tier 7 units would look great... maybe one as a neutral unit... or two versions, one with Landsknechts and one with angels

It would be invaluable as a base for creators of story-driven scenarios. At least for me!

And then I realized I missed the update where griffins were added, lol :D :D :D

I doubt I'll finish the mod, especially since I'm leaving the Heroes 5 community, mainly because the script developers can't expand or fix the game's functionality (they can't even fix the bump map function or make it so that certain creatures play an animation when the player uses them in defense, like in Heroes 6 and 7.
The only progress is that I managed to export the model with animation using granny export by changing the coordinate system so that it doesn't tilt 90 degrees. In my earliest tests and in Esto100nec1's, the result was a mess, but now the reason is known.

The archive contains an unfinished model of a cavalryman with an idle animation.

It’s very bad that he decided to abandon this game... but since he has made up his mind to leave, he would make a video like a manual! :rolleyes:

@footman I saw your request about the bump function, but I am not really sure how to enable or disable this in the first place.

On the xdb picture you showed, the mmh55 thread - did this BUMP ever work in any of the Heroes versions?

For example, does it work in 3.0 but not in 3.1, or vice versa?

Also, can you give an example of what a filled-in line should look like so I can get an idea of what it does?

I doubt he's needed by anyone. Esto100nec1 made a video about how to export models with animations using the old method, but it didn't help much. There haven't been any mods with new models and animations besides mine. The only thing I'll probably do is finish working on the cavalryman and release update 2.01, in which his appearance will be the only change.

With such an apathetic approach, there's certainly no point. But since you don't want to and don't see the point, so be it. However, Esto100nec1 did... the more manuals there are, the easier it will be for those who continue to develop this game. Moreover, people are interested, but not everyone has the enthusiasm and zeal to delve into it... and having a manual will provide a certain bonus... personally, I believe that Heroes 5 still has a chance not to fade into oblivion! :smile13:

Simple modders: yeah, yeah, we'll just go away *if anything, this is just a quote, and I'm not being rude :D*

There was a chance if one modder, whose nickname I won't mention out of principle, had released the source code for version 3.0, which he probably received later on.

1)This function is used to reflect water, in the game this is the only use of it, but i think this function is broken it should work as in Heroes VII.

2)All versions of bump work the same way.

Can you give me a visual comparison on how it looks in heroes 5 and how it looks in heroes 7?

Also why is so important to use BUMP when translating the models? Isnt there an easy way to lower the quality of the model before importing to heroes 5?

Alright so just to be certain I am thinking the right thing. When you add the BUMP image for the cavalry unit, it turns purple and you want not to be that way?

What value do you use for AverageColor and is it possible to be causing the purplish colors?

Also a side question - what is the meaning of ?
