The VOG engine has very good code that allows you to perform various operations and do things that were not possible in Heroes of Might and Magic III. There is only one small problem - how to use it?! Please, help. SOS

To start, let's define what ERM is:
ERM - Event Related Model. - A technology that allows you to change any characteristics of map objects depending on player behavior (including AI). With ERM, you can change, add, and expand the properties of Heroes, monsters, artifacts, skills, and any objects in the game. In addition, ERM enables significant advancements in the game, as it gives you the ability to write interactive scenarios with any branching storyline. This is what can turn a game like Heroes of Might and Magic III into a true RPG, where your actions lead to one result, and other actions lead to a completely different one. This is a scripting language that is placed in the WoG map editor (H3WMAPED.EXE) through time-dependent events.
Next, a relevant question: "How do I enable an ERM script in the game?"
Set the appearance of events in the editor to days 500-672 so that ERM commands are not displayed in the game as text messages. And in the text of the event itself, write the script in the ERM language.
Here are links to Russian manuals on ERM scripts: ERM manual ERM FAQ WOG FAQ

:rolleyes: Oh. I don't feel like reading and writing, so please provide some ready-made script examples here, and I'll just copy and paste them.

I tried using ERM, but nothing worked; though sometimes I would take a code and modify it (looking at the events of original maps). I was playing around more than doing anything serious. But ERM is power =) With its help, I did a lot) For example, in the Rampart centaur stable, golden golems with 500 HP could be hired, which for 2 crystals were upgraded to diamond ones with 650 HP; my peasants had 1500000000 hp and dealt 40000 hp =) Griffins learned how to shoot (without animation), every visit to the mana well gave 30000 gold, an archangel could be upgraded to a troglodyte for -3000 gold, I completely changed monster names and hero characteristics... In short, it's really cool! It's just that figuring out the language without knowing the basics of programming is impossible; you can only, like me, take something ready-made and, if you have even a slight grasp of English and an idea of what program code is, modify it =)

How do many players create simple artifacts (for example, the Sword of the Dead, which cannot be picked up but provides +4 attack or +4 defense)? Can you please explain how they do it?

Everything in WoG is done by writing scripts. You can read examples here: /topic/500/

Try contacting Horn, I'm not very knowledgeable in this area, but as the developer of Tournament Edition, he can explain everything clearly.

I have a problem – I want to change a hero's specialization (so that the hydras under his command fight more effectively). I understand how to write this script. But it doesn't work. Apparently, I need to set a condition for it to work. And I haven't found anywhere how to make the script work from the moment the map is loaded! :( Can anyone help me?

Of course, I apologize in advance. I'm creating a large, two-level map with ERM, but I need images, preferably in *.pcx format, and not just any images, but ones depicting scenes from Tarnum's adventures. Please help, or if anyone knows, can ERM be used to change the images to those of Tarnum?

Hey everyone! Does anyone have a complete ERM script editor?
As I understand it, it's a full library of scripts with all the descriptions. After studying it for a long time, and struggling with the English version, I think I've learned to write decent scripts. But there are many formats and receivers that I haven't found, even after reading ERMs in recent maps.
I have a version from 2002 (when I bought my first Heroes game), and I've heard that the latest version was made in 2005 and hasn't been updated since.
If anyone has it, please send it to me.

Thank you in advance.
