So, I'm asking, it seems like the operation should be quite simple.

I'm absolutely sure you can't do it directly. However, I've come up with something. You can take a Yeti, give it a ship model for the global map, and for combat, give it the model and stats of an archer.

Done. All that remains is to unpack this file, and then pack its contents into an archive with the map. In the editor, select the yeti (if you don't know how, choose any monster, in the left panel in shared, find SnowApe).

Guys, I'm asking for help again regarding how to turn a single-player scenario into a multiplayer map. I really want to finish this.

Does anyone know how to do it?
I tried what Ment suggested, which was to rename the single-player scenario folder to a multiplayer maps folder directly within the map archive.
It worked, but it only allowed me to open/close slots for computer players, like in a multiplayer game.
That is, next to the two computer players, a choice appeared between a padlock (player is locked) and a computer (the computer is playing as the player). The brain icons (for a live player) never appeared.
I think I need to tweak something in the editor, in the map properties, but I don't know what.
Please advise.

I just checked. codenameray, does it work for you on other maps as well? Because for me, it looks like this:

Regarding other maps, I don't know.
Back then, when I asked for the first time, I renamed the folder and checked the result. I described what happened above. I haven't tried it again since.

Since we're on the subject, could you email me the latest version of the map from my thread in the reworked version? It seems to be in post 47 on page 5.
Or you can upload it yourself, and I'll just edit the first post and indicate that this is now the latest version.

Thank you! By the way, I see the inscription "A cop joined the game" on the screenshot. So, is this a multiplayer game? I think I was testing the map in a single-player game/scenario. Although the changes should have worked for this type of game as well. But in my case, they only worked partially.

Ah, I see what you mean :) No, you need to use online multiplayer -> local network (or ubi.com).

What a fool I am. I should have logged in right away. I wasted so much time.

I also have many problems: 1. The maps I create weigh only 1KB. 2. If I edit maps from the generator, I can only do it once (I can't re-edit them). 3. I can't create an underground world. 4. How do I arrange underground/above-ground passages and monoliths (portals) in pairs? I can't install maps downloaded from the internet (only one out of twenty installs). I have Heroes 5, version 1.0, and Hammers of Fate 2.0. Please help!
