Good evening, dear colleagues!

Has anyone ever added a flag for RedHavenHero? So that it could be seen in the hero overview window.

Most likely, in NHF, something similar was done with Laslo; usually, a standard Knight is taken, and the model of a flagless Knight is applied as an effect. In this case, only the battle model is changed, so there's no need to worry about the move animation and model highlighting on the map.

Could you please post some screenshots from there? I don't use NHF, so I can't check it myself.

I was watching a video about Heroes 5, about different mods, and I accidentally read in the comments, although it was 1-2 years ago, that animations cannot be modded, and that new creatures can only be placed on existing skeletons. Is this true? Or is the information outdated? After all, animations can definitely be extracted from Heroes...

The texture size for PWL is 1024x1024, and the lower rectangle, 1024x256, is not used...

Good afternoon! So, even if we wanted to, would it be impossible to enlarge the image? Simply because there is no support for a higher resolution? Or is there a solution?

Google "how to create a custom hero in Heroes 5", the manual describes the process of adding a custom model.

and it seems like I created a mod following the manual, copied all the mod folders into the map. It appears in the list of heroes. But in reality, it's nowhere to be found. I don't know where to look. When setting the path for a standard hero to the newly created one, the table is still the old one, before the modding. Basically, it's as if I didn't add anything at all. 
Honestly, I don't have the strength or understanding anymore.

Modding doesn't forgive mistakes xD
Keep going! 🥳

Well, there's progress; I managed to replace the hero model with an Ent, but only the standard one, not the "dump truck" version from the 3 Heroes. I'll keep trying to figure it out. And the manual has very little information for beginners, like the fact that you need to disable mods and copy the contents from the new mods folder, not from the map folder, and then insert it into any of your maps. Also, as I understand it, you don't need to make the hero a scripted one.

The only question is: how do I make the Ent-hero walk instead of fly? Although there seems to be a "move" animation, right? It should be able to walk on the map, I think...
