Posts from New or rediscovered old Forge map for WOG.

The main thing is that the town should have its own spirit, something that unites the creatures. Just don't create a random collection of monsters:rolleyes:

I agree, if you work hard, you will get results!

How is all this done? What programs are used? For example, I can help with drawing something...

using 3D Max

A ia mogu karti sdelat, a takse interesnie dialogi. Kstati, esli delat versiu dlia SoD, to nusno cdelat tak, chtobi Forge esche i s WOG-om shel, i s Gavaniu.

offtopic: Why did you start typing in English?
not offtopic: I don't even know how to integrate it into the game for SOD... think about whether it's necessary to add it to SOD; if the choice is a new city versus WOG, I'll choose WOG. And WOG seems easier to add.

I can create maps and also interesting dialogues. By the way, if you're making a version for SoD, you need to make it so that Forge works with both WOG and Gavaniu.

Well, everyone on this forum can create maps and dialogues:)
But the city still needs to be for WOG. You've already been explained that.

It seems like his keyboard layout isn't working:)

Creating a New Town

So, as I understand it, there is interest in this topic...

Let's begin! First, we need to create an action plan.

As far as I know, many have tried to create the Forge town, but we haven't seen any finished versions, which means there are reasons for this: either it all ended with arguments like "I can do this... I can do that...", or the developers encountered some kind of problem.
This means that information should have been leaking out!

So, everyone who wants to help, start small: find information on the internet, on various websites, and send it to my email address Geksorin@mail.ru. I will process it and post it on the forum so you can see what is known and don't send the same things over and over again!
Backup email: rew_666@mail.ru

Send everything you find, but pay special attention to the following:
1) What programs did the developers use?
2) What difficulties did they encounter?
Right now, the main goal is to gather as much information as possible about the development and creation process....

Please, no spamming or off-topic posts; only write if you have something relevant!

There's no need to write that you can come up with a campaign or write texts. We only need information related to the development process; I repeat this again!

Let's unite our efforts and not just write about how we can help. I'm not saying that we'll finish everything tomorrow; it might take years, but we will do it! And we will achieve it because Heroes deserve it. I hope for your understanding and won't accept any cynical smiles. I aim to ensure that Heroes 3 doesn't die out with cries of "Oh, it's too difficult, oh, it will take too long."
I hope there are people among you who are ready to join me!

You should primarily search outside the Russian-speaking internet. For example:

Thank you for the information. As I understand it, the city has already been created, and quite meticulously, even to the point of designing how the heroes will look on the map. However, I don't see any further development for the city. Does anyone know what's happening with it currently?

Here are some photos I found while I'm looking for confirmation of whether the city exists or not!

Here is a program that can be used to modify or even add monsters, towns, or generally change the graphics in Heroes of Might and Magic III – Defmaker 8.5.

It seems that volunteers are creating a town for WOG 3.59. Let's see if it will be included in the new version of WOG or implemented in some other way. Or maybe it won't be implemented at all. But so far, there doesn't seem to be any information about the project being discontinued.

Here's what I found on other forums outside the Russian-speaking internet. Creating a town, creatures, animations, and the graphics themselves isn't difficult; it just requires a lot of time and patience. Most people came to the same conclusion: does it make sense to "shoehorn" a town with cybernetic creatures into the mythical foundation of Heroes 3? Many gave up, not knowing what to do. Here's an explanation from one of the forum users: "Maybe you don't know, but similar discussions have been held here and on many other forums for many years, and they always come back like a boomerang. It all started before the release of Heroes 1, when the "opposition" reacted. In any case, there are people who react negatively to this topic and think about it as if it ruined the game (thanks to them, we have the Heroes 3 we have now), but there are also people who like the idea or are at least not against it (and they have been around since 1985). And I think nothing will change in the game. There are only fanatics who want to preserve the game in its current form, and there are fans who want something more from the game (like a greater role for the Might and Magic series). The town itself was actually finished (or at least 95% complete), although the development of the creatures stopped somewhere in the middle."

So, development is indeed underway, by a Polish team. I don't know their names yet, but that will come with time...
Here's some work by one of the fans of Heroes of Might and Magic III. What do you think?
