I'll give you the link later... but it wouldn't have been useful to you in this tournament anyway;).
Why is that? I tried several times to find something manually using the load-save method.

To be honest, I don't use these "hero-digging" tools, editors, cheats, etc. and I wouldn't advise you to either:smile02:
Your save has been accepted and will be reviewed soon:)
Well, let's say you used an editor :) Where did those surprises from VDV come from then :D I don't use cheats either. I discussed a certain issue with you, and you even agreed, but I decided not to use it; oil isn't that important to me, I have enough as it is. But you allow using the "hero-digging" tool, so why don't you use it yourself? In my opinion, it's just automating manual work. But in this tournament, I had to do without it too.

Because I tried to anticipate everything in the "Pandora's Box," so the "digger" isn't really needed in this tournament. And I don't use it because I value my time. Although it is allowed. I think the next tournaments will be built on a similar principle.

Regarding the editor: You're right, I confess, there are surprises, and not only that:smile02:. I evaluated it at one time, so I think my save will be considered out of competition, i.e., the prize won't apply to me...

I disagree. You should be included in the scoring. You provided the starting MAP for everyone to see, so the conditions are suitable to consider that everyone was on equal footing, both players and testers. And the "hero digger" is needed at least for the purpose of hiring a computer-controlled hero that was moved elsewhere.

Yes, I think so too. Everyone could view the map in the editor and see where everything is located, what events are planned, etc. So, everyone had fairly equal starting conditions.

Yes, you can. However, you cannot use the Vulnerability Medal and the Boots of the Dead (and, consequently, the Undead King's Cloak).

Dear opponents and organizers, I don't understand something. I downloaded the save file and placed it in the "Games" folder in Heroes, but the "Restoration of Erathia" map still doesn't appear. I'm playing on "Armageddon's Blade," but I thought it was allowed. Why is this happening, and what should I do? Can you explain it, maybe I missed something? Please, the sooner the better, I'm still hoping to complete the map.
Thank you in advance!

If you want to view the map itself, download the map file and place it in the "maps" folder. In general, you can play with a single save file; the map is not needed for that.

Dear Toha, please provide a complete step-by-step guide so I don't have to ask again what to put where and what to do next. Thank you in advance!

Hooray, I finally found the time and finished the certificate of honor! :smile03:
Now it looks a little different (more heroic!)
I hope you like it. I'll post it on the website tomorrow. :)

P.S. Of course, all certificates will be printed on photo paper and mailed to the winners!;)

Dear Tournament Participants, please hurry and submit your final save files. Tomorrow is December 28th, and many will start celebrating (at work, for example) and forget to send their results! Sincerely, VDV_forever

Dear Tokha, please provide a complete step-by-step guide so that I don't have to ask again what to do and where to put things, thanks in advance!

You download the game save from here /attachments/1746/> - difficulty: impossible
/attachments/1745/> - difficulty: normal

You choose yourself which difficulty level you want to play on.
Next, you unzip the archive (I hope this doesn't need explaining) and place it in the Heroes folder, in the games folder.
Then, launch Heroes, select "Load Game" in the menu, then "Load Scenario," and in the list of games, choose "impossible" if you selected the most difficult level, or "normal" if you chose the regular level, and load the game as usual. That's all; start playing.

If you want to see the entire map, you download the map from here
/attachments/1748/>. Also, unzip it and place it in the Heroes folder, in the maps folder. Then, launch the map editor (I hope you've used it at least once?) and click "File," then "Open..." and find the map "Revival (Tournaments)" in the list and open it. It's simple. Good luck.
