Qwerty, Hello. This person tried to modify the game, but it seems they weren't very successful. To be honest, many people try to make global changes to the game, but their efforts only get 50% complete.
There are many good people on the internet. One of them contacted me.
He and many others are working on this project, but due to a lack of time and poor communication, I stopped communicating with him. Now, I'm not even sure if I should contact him again... I'm not a programmer, so I can only help with promotion. Many people give up...

I have nothing to hide from you. It was like this, and it will continue to be!*
Here's what I have saved... Take a look:

This is our conversation and links, from about 6 months ago...
Hello, I can't post messages on the forum yet, but I can send private messages.
Basically, you want to create a mod for Heroes 2, and I've always wanted to do that too. It's my favorite game, and it has an atmosphere that no other game has, not even Heroes 3, although it's good in its own way. But for me, Heroes 2 is still number one, while the first one is too primitive, and the fourth one has terrible graphics and is unbalanced. There are some good things in it, but overall it's terrible, and I feel the same way about the fifth one (I'm so tired of the cutscenes at the beginning of the campaigns and the headless cavalry).
I've been looking for ways to improve Heroes 2, and I found people who are working on something similar for КПК (by the way, I think Heroes on КПК is more promising than on PC). I started collecting ideas, creating maps, and so on.
By the way, there's a version for PC of this game (although the graphics look a bit weak on a larger screen).

So, I'm offering to help you create and modify
(the project is constantly evolving and gaining momentum). It promises to be even better than WOG (by the way, all the gameplay innovations will be optional), and the graphics promise to be...
And in general, in the future, when this project is completed (all the modifications), it will be possible to upgrade the graphics and music to the level of Heroes 3, and it will be possible to disable it.
In my search for maps for the PC version of Heroes, I searched the entire internet, on Yandex, Google, and Rambler, several times (first in English, then in Russian), and I downloaded thousands of maps for all the Heroes games, including the second one. A large number of maps can be found on HeroeSportal and
http://heroes.mycomport.com/cgi-bin/...Search&BASIC=1.
In any case, I advise you to contact me. I have downloaded all the maps from the above links and can send them to your email.

I'm waiting for your reply.
I will promote this topic on all the major Heroes websites:
http://www.heroesportal.net
http://heroesworld.ru and
http://www.sabrina.ru (it used to be one website, but now it's split).
http://forum.df2.ru
http://www.maps4heroes.com
http://heroes.mycomport.com/ - one of the largest foreign Heroes websites, with about 1000 maps for Heroes 2 (I've already downloaded them). There's a forum, and I thought the site was dead, but it's still alive, as evidenced by the forum.
I sent the rest of the message to your email.
The mod for Heroes 2, which I linked to (you asked if I created the mod), is being created by a group of fans. However, we have a choice: either join them and form a group, or work on the
http://palmheroes.com/ project for Heroes on КПК. However, we can create Heroes for PC with the same object resolution, but the objects will be smaller, but you can see more of the area. They have already done much more than the people who are creating the mod that I linked to. However, they don't have as many maps (about 150), while I have over 1500 maps for the standard PC version of Heroes 2 (I searched the entire internet on Yandex, Google, and Rambler, and I also took maps from all my friends).
Choose whether to continue modifying the old ones (we have a large number of maps) or create new ones (many possibilities, many new textures and animations, and also support from the developers, as it would be beneficial for them to merge, but fewer objects on the map).

Hello. You're doing a great job, but I think that if you keep looking, you can find something else useful.
I'm very happy that there are people like you. We are united by one thing: our love for Heroes 2. After analyzing the game, I came to the conclusion that Heroes 2 is played by: 1) 10 to 20 people (10%), 2) 20 to 40 people (80%), 3) 40 and more.
So, regarding the projects. My opinion is that we should develop all the ideas related to the game on PC.
This is more promising, both in terms of playability and in terms of attracting people. But I don't rule out the possibility of developing all directions. Thank you for your letters. I apologize for the previous *dry* message. I was tired. I have a lot of work now.
I'm in touch.
Sincerely, Indigo.

Hello! Are you ready to start collaborating? If so, I need support, so you need to register on some forums and websites and write that everyone who wants to can help create a mod for Heroes 2, although I'm creating more of a Heroes 2.5, but that doesn't matter. I'm giving you a screenshot that shows a small part of the changes and additions that I have already made to the game. You need to post the screenshot on all the forums where there will be a message. I already gave you the websites. Unfortunately, I can't post messages on these sites and forums myself right now, so I'm entrusting this task to you.
And also, my email is glitching and not opening messages. I was removed from the forum where I was writing to you because I couldn't confirm my registration (they send a link and password to the email, and I wrote about the email). So the only way to contact me is via ICQ, my number is хххххххх. I'm waiting for your messages, good luck on the forums.
P.S. I'm currently working on the interior views of Inferno, Dungeon, and Fortress, creating creatures from Heroes 3 and new ones.
In the screenshot, you can see the genasi of the 4 elements (djinn, ifrit, etc.), an energy mage, a dark lord in red, a ghost, a nightmare, a necromancer (in a black robe, can raise undead from corpses on the battlefield, increases the necromancy skill, depending on their number), and a servant of darkness (sucks souls, which restores health better than a vampire) with a skull in his left hand...
*If anyone wants to contact this person, write to me at the forum's email. Justify why you are interested in the *Project Revival* and I will give you his *ICQ* and email address.*
Yes... here's a small screenshot.
p/s
I plan to modify the game step by step, with mods. (Indigo)
