Nice! Want a quick tour of this page too?

I wanted to ask, do I need to extract the creature models from Heroes 7 and the texture of the Griffin creature from Heroes 6?
A user with the nickname, I think, Hannik, has already helped me with transferring the creature models. But to update the mod completely, I would like more transferred creatures, or wait until I can implement my ideas for another campaign.
In the first mission, the orange hero (Uther), who is the first one, for some reason doesn't attack my town but runs along the road towards the green Fortress.
What could be the problem?

Does the console display any errors? Are any third-party mods installed, or are you playing on some kind of custom build?
Sa-a... Daimyo or Shogun Grigory:
1). Maybe create a separate version of the campaign with the old Myrmidons? I personally liked their sabers and yatagans, and their magnificent shoulder pads.
2). I suggest creating a second, fan-made version of the campaign for Sanctuary, specifically with Nag, Oleg Gryphon, Cyrus, and Zakira against Sandro and his Order of Void.
3). In this mod, they forgot to swap the gold cost of dwellings of levels 4 and 5. In the Forest Union, Stonehenge was level 4, and Unicorn Glade was level 5, and accordingly, Stonehenge cost 1500/4000, and Unicorn Glade 2000/6000, but in Sanctuary, it should be the other way around!
3.1). And what about changing the 5 wood requirement for Reef Barrier, Mermaid Lagoon, 10 for Underwater Arena, 5 for Altar of Shalassa, and Statues or Pagodas to ore? For the Blessed Pond, change 15 wood to 5 wood and 10 ore, add wood to the Coral Sanctuary, and replace all the ore in the Pearl Sanctuary with wood? Or, in the fifth-tier Sanctuary, could there be wood even though many of the buildings are underwater and therefore not visible on the screen?
4). Also, in this mod, they forgot to rename the creature weeks to match the new castle replacement.
5). Why does the Statue of the Master Duelist require a Kappa dwelling? It would be much more logical if the Pagoda was a requirement for the Underwater Arena for the Kenshi...
Regarding points 3, 4, and 5, maybe you want a fix-mod to be made by me, and not by you?
Since I'm not a modder, it was already an achievement for me to redo the textures for the non-upgraded and upgraded mermaids :D
And I didn't forbid anyone from making their own fix-mods in the archive with the campaign. In fact, the base of the mod isn't mine, and I didn't make many changes to it due to my lack of skill. So, you can redo not only points 3, 4, and 5, but also 1.
Regarding the second point, I have thoughts about a completely different Gryphon offspring. However, for now, it doesn't fit into a single storyline, and I need to finally play through the sixth part properly, and not just skim through it, in order to fully understand the character's personality. Unfortunately, I don't have enough time and energy for all of this right now.
P.S. Following Zakhar's advice, there is a suggestion to completely swap the first three tiers, where level 1, Kappas, will be followed by sharklings, and then water elementals.
Since I'm not a modder, it was already an achievement for me to rework the textures for the basic and upgraded versions of the Mermaids.
And I didn't forbid anyone from creating their own fixes for the mod in the archive with the Campaigns. Actually, the core of the mod isn't mine; I didn't delve too deeply into it due to my lack of skill. So, you can rework not only points 3, 4, and 5, but also point 1.
Regarding the second point, I have ideas for a completely different Griffin offspring. However, it doesn't quite fit into the overall storyline yet, and I also need to finally play through the sixth installment properly, not just skim through it, to fully understand the character's personality. Unfortunately, I don't have enough time and energy for all of this right now.
P.S. Following Zakhar's advice, there's a suggestion to completely rearrange the first three tiers, where the 1st level, Kappa, would be followed by the Sharklings as the second, and the Water Spirits as the third.
Yeah... Thanks for the reply after a week! But editing text files is simple, and the information from HoMM 6 is available in the manual and online. Even so, are you really not going to make this fix mod yourself instead of me?
The thing is, in Heroes V, they wanted to create a campaign featuring the Nagas, and Oleg Gryphon and Cyrus united against the Order of the Void, using Zakira for this purpose. And with this mod, you can now create a fan version of this campaign! But to understand the character, you can just watch this gameplay video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iLESZJKMJY.
In Heroes VI, the Shark Guards are stronger than the Kappas only in terms of health, but in terms of defense and other parameters, they are already better than the Kappas, so you can leave it as is. Maybe the Stream Spirits should be on level 5, and the Priestesses on level 3? And for the "four waves" of Kensei, I think Whirlwind is more similar than Storm, which only attacks twice, although the three attacks from the waves can be combined in strength into a second attack, and the Furious ones' desire to crush is more like Storm? And shouldn't the Kirin be able to fly? In Heroes VI, they followed air currents above the ground...
1) For me, there is nothing critically important in the points you described, but since you decide to change some moments yourself, I can, with your permission, add your changes to the mod that I uploaded.
2) I'm hearing about this campaign for the first time. If I'm still alive and well in ten years, then we can think about something like that.
3) Keep in mind that the race is already imbalanced compared to other races in the fifth part, so all such changes must be introduced carefully. Simply trying to "make it like in the sixth" is not reasonable. The way creatures look in the fifth part, which is conditional in the sixth, is a debatable issue. But, relative to the original size of the Kappas, for example (I already have a model transferred from the seventh, it is really small for the fifth), they clearly belong to the first tier, relative to the Sharks. I think we should either take away the water immunity from the Nagas, or add an aura of vulnerability to air from the elemental Gargoyles to all of them. And the Kirin need to have their speed reduced; they can now run around the battlefield from one end to the other even without any bonuses.
I wanted to replay the campaign, but when unpacking the archive, errors occur and the files are unpacked as 0kb.
Everything unpacks normally for me. Try using 7zip, which I used to pack the archive.

I think we should either remove the water immunity from the Kappa or add an aura of vulnerability to air to all of them, from the elemental Gargoyles. And the Kirin need to have their speed reduced; they can now run across the battlefield from one end to the other even without any bonuses.
