Posts from Creating your own hero. Auto-translated

Hello! Does anyone know how to create a custom hero with their own parameters and abilities, and with their own photo or some other image? With some kind of specialization that can be chosen? Thank you in advance for your answers and attention! P.S. Or, please provide a link to download the program! Thank you in advance for everything!

Duncan, what do you think we’re talking about? :)

Ment I understand, but I thought someone might know the link to that program for creating heroes. If not, sorry.

This program is called a map editor.

Ment but how can I create a completely custom hero then? I would like to create a hero, upload a photo, change his specialization, and change his appearance...
P.S. I think half of this is not feasible.

Everything is possible, but with varying degrees of difficulty. Everything you listed (except for the appearance) can be easily done by editing the corresponding parameters in Shared. The appearance can also be changed, but it's more complex; you need to know how to work in Maya and be able to import Maya models into the game. But there are people who can do that. I can do it a little bit myself, thanks to Psatkha.

Could you please, **Ment**, send a screenshot showing what needs to be enabled to change the specialization? And can you create your own specialization? I'm waiting for your answer. :smile31: :smile31: :smile31:
Thank you in advance for your help.

Duncan, you can customize any hero by selecting them and pressing the spacebar. Here, you can change the name and description. To change the icon, click "Custom icon" and upload a new icon from your desktop. Refer to the manual for the required icon specifications.

Next, in Map Properties Three, click on the "Shared" row and select a new specialization (although only from those that already exist in the game); enter a new name and description for the specialization. If you perform all these manipulations, you will essentially create a new hero, but with the old model and familiar specialization. In general, changing the icon, name, and specialization is enough to consider such a hero as new.

And is it possible to create your own specialization? I'm waiting for an answer.

You set a specialization with no effect or a weakly expressed effect, and then you program its action using scripts. I don't know if there's another way.

Ment, could you please create a hero with the following parameters for me?

Perhaps we should put the parameters here.

I would like a character like this one:

If you can, please make one. Ment!!!

And also, if possible, please teach me. I am sincerely grateful for everything.

Duncan, you're being ridiculous :D I wouldn't do that in 3D, but maybe in Heroes III... but not like this...
I thought "parameters" referred to special abilities, biography, default skills, and the like.

In the editor, click on the hero, look at the left panel of the editor, find the Shared line there, and click on "...". Then, among the lines, you need to find Specialization and select the desired one from the drop-down list. To change the name, image, and other things, you need the parameters SpecializationName, SpecializationDesc, and SpecializationIcon. The names might be slightly different; I don't remember them exactly right now, but they should be similar.

I did it that way, but the problem is that after the game starts, the skill doesn't change and remains the same as it was before.

That can't be right. Most likely, you simply didn't change its icon and description. In other words, you modified the skill, and it works if you check, but visually it hasn't changed.
