Posts from HoMM3 HD is a mod (add-on) for the game Heroes of Might and Magic 3.

Yeah, that's obvious, password-protected saves will still win the argument between HD and HD+, it's just interesting what prompted this change with level 2. Maybe it would have been worth at least polling people to see if they need it or not.

[-] (author - Sav) original bugs: excessive castle and neutral zones in Random Map Generation (RMG), crash when removing magical obstacles with a spell, incorrect spell chances for the Dragon spell, failure to reset visited status of map objects, incorrect AI calculation of hero luck when evaluating the value of increasing luck, incorrect wisdom and magic levels for the Elementalist, incorrect display of attack with stack bonuses in combat.
[+] (author - Sav) in player cities, if a fort is present, 2 levels of creatures will always be built, and in neutral cities, 1 level.

It's always easier to simply add functionality than to add functionality plus an option.
What appeared in 3.26 is not the final version.
I don't see anything terrible in this.

Moreover, how can it be worse than, say, the creatures of levels 2-6 in the refugee camps, or the lack of the quick battle bug that exists in HD+?
In my opinion, it's much less terrible...

I find it very funny on this forum lately.
I read every few posts: "Make the second level buildable, just do it!", they did it, and now: "Oh, what a nightmare, why did you do that!", what the heck.

And? Will it be impossible to play?
I didn't even expect HD+ to be allowed in pure SoD tournaments, because it's already a slightly different game, and without changes to the initial city build order.

Dear baratorch, since you insist, please implement password protection in HD – as it doesn't affect the gameplay. And do whatever you want with HD+. And impose whatever you want there.

+1. Indeed, sir, please implement password protection in HD; it makes the experience much more comfortable with that option :) and we'll leave HD+ for experiments :smile08:

...I kept reading in every tenth post, "make the outpost level 2, just do it!", I did it, and then, "oh, what a nightmare, why did you do that!"...

that what appeared in 3.26 is not the final version.

I'm also interested in this question; I wouldn't mind sticking with version 3.25

So, what were the grateful people supposed to say? The decision is clearly controversial, and it's not at all clear why it was made, and the boss is even explaining it as "I decided to do it – deal with it."

All that needed to be said was, "Yes, I'll think about it; this isn't the final version," and there would be fewer complaints.

Question: if I've already updated, where can I get version 3.25 back?

Yeah... Dear colleagues, the person already wrote to you.


And where did all the grateful people go? They instantly turned into detractors. Facepalm. Baratorch, switch to the WT team; your efforts won't be appreciated here. :D

HD+:
[-] in the player's cities, if a Fortress is present, there are always 2 levels of creatures built, and in neutral cities - 1 level.

Oops, I updated it and then read this... please revert it to how it was!!!!
I see the debate is already in full swing...

Question: if I've already updated, where can I get the previous version .3.25 back from...?

+1. Indeed, sir, please add passwords to HD, it's very comfortable to feel with such an option, and let's leave HD+ for experiments.

Yeah... Dear colleagues... your comrade wrote to you...
