Manulli, this is an awesome mod! Not everyone will like it, but Grol is fantastic!

Manulli, is it possible to download Groll separately, for example? Not everyone likes him, but Groll is great!

Unfortunately, Manulli hasn't been active on the forum for a year.

The heroes from the Academy have a minor bug. Nazir and Razzak don't have footstep sounds when moving around the map. I believe this bug is related to the fact that they use the old model of a mage hero as a base, while the others are based on Zephyr, and the elephant footstep sound is present there. Perhaps someone can tell me which file specifies the movement sound; I haven't been able to find it myself.

Characters\Heroes\Academy\Nathir\ file Wizard-arena-move.xdb
in it find the line <Sound/> and replace it with <Sound href="/Sounds/_(Sound)/Heroes/Wizard/move.xdb#xpointer(/Sound)"/>

with Razzak it's more complicated - he has no effects, so he uses the vanilla mage animation set (which is not in the mod)
there are 2 ways to solve the problem

the first one is simple, but it may cause a bug if the LOD animation doesn't fit the battle model, but that's not the point, it's worth trying

folder \Characters\Heroes\Academy\Razzak\ file Wizard.(Character).xdb
there are lines
    <ArenaAnimSet href="/Characters/Heroes/Wizard-arena.xdb#xpointer(/AnimSet)"/>
    <AdvMapAnimSet href="/Characters/Heroes/Wizard-arena.xdb#xpointer(/AnimSet)"/>
as you can see, one line is responsible for arena animations, the second one for the map, the hero only walks on the map, so you need to replace the second line with
    <AdvMapAnimSet href="/Characters/Heroes/Wizard_LOD-adv.xdb#xpointer(/AnimSet)"/>

in the vanilla game different models are used for the map and the arena, but here there's only one, so there's a chance the model and animations won't fit each other, it's easy to notice - the magic wands might fly off to the side, or the hero might stand in a T-pose, then you'll have to revert the changes and do the following

in data.pak in the folder \Characters\Heroes look for the file Wizard-arena-move.xdb - do the same with it as with Nathir's same file, save it somewhere, and put it into the mod in the folder \Characters\Heroes

Thank you very much, I'll check it by the weekend. I've already fixed the Razzaq issue by taking his model from another mod and simply applying Manulli's textures. I've checked all the maps, and I just need to take a look at the arena.

Does anyone know how to fix this? Many people have this issue, while others don't have the heads displayed.

Some files are missing.... Since the model is white, there are no files responsible for the textures; I haven't played with this mod, so I can't say exactly which file is missing.

I checked, and everything works as it should. In the mod, when you open it, there are files named 1.xdb, 0.xdb, and 0.dds. Your second file isn't working, that's why the Knight turned white... It's interesting why it's not a patch...

Perhaps you already have something with the 0.xdb file; let's say the model is called that, and the game doesn't distinguish between them.

There's also a chance that your archives are getting corrupted

Thank you. I thought it was due to something else, but it turned out to be because I deleted those files.

Who knows why all the Dwarf and most of the Human heroes ended up with an axe stuck in their heads.

Who knows why all the dwarf heroes and most human heroes suddenly have an axe-shaped head?

Did you delete the "bin" folder? The models are stored there

To be honest, I haven't read any of Mayne Reid's works. Of course, I could have written that the dwarf heroes, along with most of the knights, started imitating the Headless Horseman, but this way it's shorter. But I would like to know how to make them opaque again; by the way, I forgot to mention that. The Dark Elves have become completely transparent.

The bin folder is in place; I know what it's for.

I don't know... I would leave it as is... they look more interesting, more colorful, somehow! )))))

Your sky and interface textures look crooked and worn out.

I know, I had to reduce the quality of the screenshots to upload them here.
I was able to fix it, but I didn't understand how to fix the head errors.
