The community created a map, everything works, but I can't create a Dungeon. No matter what I try, it doesn't work. Can anyone help? :rolleyes:
I'm quoting myself:
If you mean how to carve out the Dungeon itself, to create free space there, then use the Lower tool in the Tiles tab. Be sure to set it to a value of 3 and use it to carve out the space. To make sure you can see something, in the map settings, in the general map properties, there is an ambient light setting for underground areas. Set it to something that isn't underground (for example, Haven Light (Grass)). After you finish the map, set it to any light, preferably an underground one. Otherwise, if you have sunlight underground, it will look, to put it mildly, strange. But everything is written in the manual.

And yes, by the way, about the town. I don't understand how to place the town so that everything is okay with the shipyard?

You create a descent to the water and place the town next to it, so that the green indicator lights up on the descent. And everything will be fine with the shipyard.

Here's another question:

How can I clip campaigns? Do I need a different editor or what? :confused:

Another question about creation. When creating a hero, you can change not only their name and biography, but also their account. But for some reason, this account doesn't appear in the game later on. What needs to be done for it to be displayed?

And also, does anyone have a Russian manual for the editor? If so, please tell me where I can find it. Besides the scripting manual, I haven't found anything else.

Either I don't understand (sorry for being slow), or it doesn't work. Could you please provide a screenshot? Regarding campaigns: I don't remember from which version, but in the editor, in the Tools menu, there are campaigns, random maps, and duel heroes. It seems that everything is available in Hammers of Fate. In Tribes of the East, it definitely is. There you can create single-player maps, place bonuses, and add heroes that transfer between maps...

There, you create single-player maps, add bonuses, and set up heroes that transfer between maps...
Okay... I'll do it when I get home... I'll make a screenshot... In reality, it's all quite simple. If you've placed simple towers on the map, you can also place a castle with towers. Just instead of a tower, place a castle next to the entrance to the water... and everything else is the same.

Guys!!! :smile45: I used the standard manual for the map editor, version 1.6 of the original Heroes 5. It shows and describes that a green quadrilateral should appear, but I only see a blue grid and that's it ((( what should I do?:smile45:

2 DEMONADA - I had the same issue, but it disappeared as soon as I moved the camera. If that doesn't help, try placing something on the territory. So, does anyone know how to combine neutral units into single units, like in the Tribes of the East campaign?

How do you create a description for a map so that it appears in the map's characteristics when the game is launched?

I've been struggling with this question for a while: how do you take a screenshot of the map's terrain so that it appears in the map properties (and not during loading) – that is, when you select the map. I used to be able to do it, but the screenshot was separate from the map, and when I moved the map to another computer, it would disappear.

Please help. I'm having a problem creating duel heroes. I open Tools/Create Duel Preset in the map editor, create my hero, and save it. The map editor sees it, but when I try to open it, I get an error message. The game doesn't recognize the created hero; in online play, it simply doesn't exist. I have a licensed copy of the game, and I don't have any problems playing online. Can someone please HELP?
