Hello, fellow forum users! If anyone has heard of the so-called "Slava Salnikov's utility" (I searched in other topics, but didn't find anything), please help me with how to use it. I'm creating a map, copying it to the maps folder, but it doesn't open in the game or the original editor (it says there's some kind of fatal error). Please tell me how to fix this problem.

You can download the utility itself (version 3.4 + its graphical interface) here:
http://narod.ru/disk/44756548001.afe113b35d616cb69b2aea86b51ecf83/HoMM4_Tools.zip.html

Documentation on how to use it is contained in the h4util.doc file.

I cannot provide a specific answer regarding the problem you are facing – there is not enough information.

The problem is that the maps in the utility are created for WoW, and I have the original Heroes IV installed. So, in order for the map to work properly, is it necessary to have the expansion pack, or is there some other way?

When generating, use the key –wv#
where # in your case should be equal to 1 (2 - for the "Storm of Secession" expansion, 3 - for the "Whirlwinds of War" expansion).

The key description is available in the h4util.doc file.

Of course, the map version should match the game version. Don't worry, it could be worse – maps extracted from a specific game might not open in that same game, and they might not work in other game versions either.
