Posts from AltNCF - Alternative NCF
Something like that? I still have a long way to go before I reach that stage.
Yeah, but now as a 2D layout! See the post above! ;)

Had some free time this morning and went through the game's geometry...
F184D846-2150-40E5-9973-3273B132D724 - Lizard Archer, very similar to the lizard from Heroes 7
1D9D4108-AEDD-4520-95BD-561F089CACC9 - Skeleton, I couldn't find any animations for it... maybe I missed them, or maybe they aren't in the resources...

I tried to insert textures from the screenshot. Here's what I got:
Thank you for the information.
By the way, saving the unfolded model as an image file is a very simple procedure; it takes less than a minute in Max, Google can help. There shouldn't be any problems with this task.
Yeah, but now it's a 2D layout! See the post above! ;)
But is it convenient in 2D? It's not always easy to see and understand where the different elements of the model are located.

I know! Do you think these just appeared out of nowhere?! ;)

Well, it depends on personal preference... by the way, nothing prevents you from using the software recommended by the respected comrade zahar0z!

Where can I download the NCF file? All the links to it are currently dead, and I have no idea where to find the base file, rather than additional creatures. Maybe someone knows a website?
During the work, such a question arose...

You need a clean version - where all IDs are occupied by peasant clones?!

Do you need a clean one – where all IDs are occupied by peasant clones?!
At least something – it’s really impossible to download anything from NCF right now. Whether it's an empty file or a megapack, it doesn't matter – I think that will be enough to clear my head.
Well, there is one in the first post of the NCF topic!

Yes, indeed. I thought these were localization packs.
What do you mean, localization packs?! NCF is originally a multilingual project, and I initially envisioned the Russian-speaking Community NCF!
By the way, is it just me, or is the random map generator not working with NCF?
You need to use the NCF version! The link I provided has the correct version... as far as I remember, I fixed a bug in it that caused the game to crash when loading a pre-made map, so give it a try ;)
But when you try to generate a map from scratch, you'll get an error like this:
Problem event name: APPCRASH
Application name: H5_Game.NCF.exe
Application version: 3.1.2.98
Application timestamp: 48469f9f
Fault module name: H5_Game.NCF.exe
Fault module version: 3.1.2.98
Fault module timestamp: 48469f9f
Exception code: c0000005
Exception offset: 0000ec7c
By the way, if I remember correctly, the esteemed comrade dredknight fixed this bug, so you should ask him!

I haven't tried opening maps generated through a regular Excel file using the NCF. I tried generating maps using the NCF Excel file.

Could you please remind me where the link to the "correct version" of the clean core is located? It would be ideal if you could provide the link directly, as it's currently quite confusing and difficult to find.
The NCF thread only contains links to creature assemblies, and in several versions. What is the difference between "Buka" and the others, by the way?
That is, as I understand it, maps are not generated through the NCF Excel file?

Psatha, could you please remind me where exactly that link to the "correct version" of the clean core is? It would be ideal if you could just post that link; it's quite confusing and difficult to find right now.
In the thread about NCF, there are only links to creature assemblies, and in several versions. What is the difference between Buka and others, by the way?
All links are always in the first post!
Regarding resources, the Buka version differs from others in that it has built-in Russian localization for the game banner, and its native .exe always requires a disk, so I use it for NCF, Nival for NHF, Ubi, and also for NCF and NHF for the English-language version...
And the installer writes the NCF content to the correct directories depending on the version...
The clean one used to be on HeroesCommunity, but the link is dead now! I will search my archives...
