Intelligent mods (which directly or indirectly change balance) that do not conflict with EWA 1.0:
- megaAI 1.2 This mod enhances the artificial intelligence in Heroes of Might and Magic V. The main difference is that the AI now more frequently chooses skills that are useful for its race and those it can use effectively. Additionally, the AI now likes to visit the library, hires only its own heroes (if there is a choice in the tavern), and so on. It will be included in the new version 2.0
-Genie_of_casting. Genies are once again casters, as they were in the fourth part of the game. This mod strengthens the weak genies of the Academy.
Genies are once again casters, as they were in the fourth part of the game.
It will be included in the new version 2.0
- NewAbilities Grants Sylvan Crystal Dragons the Crystalline Scales ability (the creature is unaffected by Shearing Sword and Ruinous Grip, as well as Deadly Cold). This mod slightly strengthens the "weak" (for many reasons) Sylvan faction. It will be included in the new version 2.0
TE mod Temporarily, this mod is incompatible with EWA due to frequent crashes, but still, we would like to see it (work is currently underway in this direction)
About the TE mod: The mod aims to fix the balance of Heroes V for fair and honest multiplayer matches. This mod has been used many times in tournaments and has earned the recognition of many players.
RMMS mod v0.2.2. Compatible. It will be included in version 2.0
new skill wheel Doc_Skills_3_0_3 Compatible. It will be included in version 2.0
mod for
Fast AI move + high PC intelligence (H5_AIadv_311) Work is underway on compatibility and conflict resolution.

EV (extended version) - this is only a concept; the mod itself is not on the page.
If the authors release it, we will check it for compatibilityNTBF mod We would be happy to test this mod, but since 2012, only one building has been added for Inferno. If the authors refine it, we will add it to build 2.0.
5.5 mod Currently being tested and checked for compatibility.
NCF mod for new neutral creatures. Of course it is compatible. The EWA build already contains about 190 new neutral creatures. Version 2.0 will include new ones developed over the last 3 years (from 2014 to 2016)
NHF - new heroes for Heroes V 3.1 Compatible. Most likely, it will be in the new build.
ASW - Alternative hero progression. Interesting mod, but the authors haven't finished it yet — it cannot be downloaded from the page. When released, we will test it without any problems.
Role-Playing Edition mod, which implements 24 hero classes (3 per faction). A unique mod; currently incompatible, but we will try.
Added after 12 minutes
MOD TESTING RESULTS as of 5.02.2016So, all new campaigns, scenarios, and maps were thoroughly checked for functionality in Windows XP(SP2,SP3), Windows 7(32,64), and Windows 8(32,64), so no game launch problems were registered. The game crashed very rarely when playing on large and huge maps (for 8 people), as well as during long games (more than 1.5 years of in-game time). But even in these cases, the game could be restarted without same issues thanks to autosaves.
Recommended system requirements for comfortable play with EWA 1.0 mod:Operating System: Windows XP(SP2,SP3), Windows 7(32,64), and Windows 8(32,64)
Processor: Pentium 4 / Athlon XP 1.5 GHz, (Core 2 Duo/Athlon 64 X2 recommended)
Memory: minimum - 1 GB, (2 GB or higher recommended)
Video Card: 128 MB, GeForce 8600 / Radeon 8500,9500,X, DirectX 9.0c (GeForce 4 MX not supported)
Sound: sound card compatible with DirectX 9.0c;
Free HDD space: minimum 3 GB, in practice, from 10 GB
Controls: keyboard, mouse
Image quality (in game settings) - better to set high or very high, as
some units and icons are fully visible only on "High" and "Very High"
Difficulty levels: the mod performs best on difficulty: Veteran, Hero
Maps. During testing, a game crash was discovered on maps: Dragon's Retribution and FirstMap.h5m (this map is in the base game). In the new, refined version of the mod, the cause of the crash will be removed.
Scenarios and campaigns: no crashes detected

Text mods: All here:
http://all4heroes.net/category/mods/text- Spell description, descriptions of all spells in the spellbook have been supplemented with precise formulas for calculating their power for convenience.
- ArtDescription301, descriptions of all artifacts have been supplemented with artistic texts. Version for “Tribes of the East”.
- m30_rus_neutralcounts, adds a numerical range to the tooltip for the number of "enemy" creatures…
- revised_description_3_0_rus, text mod that fixes description errors in the Russian version of “Tribes of the East”
- DemonRageInfo, small mod fixing errors when displaying info about what each level of blood rage provides.
- m30_rus_heroesspec Adds a description of the hero's specialization to the tooltip of the starting hero selection window +
fixes specialization descriptions (Source - mod by alexromm66)
I note that some of these mods have already been included in the build by the author — I would like them to remain there :)))
Interface mods: All here:
http://all4heroes.net/category/mods/interface- savecomb Very useful mod if you are conducting a difficult and very long battle (for example, in a campaign). It allows you to save right in the middle of a fight (a special button will appear for this). The mod is incompatible with Azard's m30_rus_Xazardous_Combat_Mod
- geltii_krug_big In tactical combat mode, a yellow circle appears under the moving unit and on the cell it moves to. This significantly simplifies navigation in battle if you had problems with it before. Especially useful when all units are clustered in one place, as well as during castle sieges.
m30_rus_combatcolor Quite useful in battles.
1. In the spellbook - the font of unavailable spells is changed to red (works both in battle and on the map).
2. In battle during an attack, the text looks as follows:
Damage: number(green color)
Will die: number(red color)
Retaliation: yes (red color) or no (green color).
++NewMainMenu 8 mods - these are eight fly-overs of cities instead of the standard menu with the cyclops.
Graphic mods: All here
http://all4heroes.net/category/mods/graphics- VisiblePath A new look at hero paths! Now, due to their color saturation, they more closely resemble previous game series. However, this is not only an aesthetic change — thanks to the mod, the drawn path is now much more visible, especially on snow.
- ShadowMistressTeleport Night Mistresses move beautifully but wildly slowly; ArchWarlock has slightly accelerated their movement by adding a teleport effect. They do not become flying creatures as a result.
- HoodlessAngelUpgrades Mod that removes hoods from Archangels and Seraphs. Now you can see their faces!
- Teleport_and_Spells_Ability_Visuals_Mods Mods that change some special effects in the game. Teleport_Mod_v3__Altered_Phoenix gives some flying magical creatures like genies, phoenixes, angels, etc., a very beautiful teleportation animation.
Spells___Ability_Visuals_v4 - gives some spells and perks that have no special effects upon application very beautiful effects (for example, with the “cursed ground” perk, there is now a rift under the stack's feet just like devils during teleport, and when vampires attack an enemy, a “Vampirism” spell effect appears during draining, etc.).
- NewArenas Mod that adds new duel arenas to the list: Orc Den (Orcs), Oasis (Mages), Former Glory (Humans), Griffin Nest (Elves), Between-World (Demons), Gardens of Tuidhana (TE)
All six arenas are available for duels (plus new images) and appear in the regular game.
- OldSchoolManticore Graphic mod that returns a lion's head to manticores in the spirit of the third part of Heroes.
- Inferno_Capital&Town_Towers-v.1.1 Graphic mod that slightly changes Inferno towns with a capitol on the map. Now it looks more like Sovereign's fortress. Also, another mod is embedded in the archive that replaces shooters on towers during city sieges.
Minotaurwithblood Three mods that add blood to the weapons of all types of minotaurs. They look more lifelike.
IconsPack Four mods that change icons for obsidian gargoyles, archdemons, light unicorns, and night mistresses… All of them fix Nival's oversights — for unicorns, it is now clear they are indeed light, and for the others, a massive image in the icon no longer prevents you from knowing which color player is moving.
GoldDragon Emerald dragons in Heroes V don't look great — just another shade of green. This mod returns gold to the elf castle — Golden Dragons are once again the strongest creature of the Sylvan faction (as it was in the third part of this game).
GargoyleMods Makes the alternative upgrade icon consistent with previous ones. Previously, the gargoyle's fierce face was positioned such that there was no room for the background, and accordingly, you couldn't see which color player was moving. GargoyleSpeedUp - significantly speeds up gargoyle flight. The same time, the flight animation suffers insignificantly.
CamMod With the “Moving Camera” option enabled, this mod gives hero casts and some units a camera angle similar to Titans when they shoot. Thus, for example, a Warlock casting Earth Shock looks very effective…
Inferno_lights_no_light_color Changes lighting in Inferno towns. Now it is less fiery and more gloomy. The town's appearance only gains from this.
Titan+Gremlin This mod redresses the Elder Gremlin and Titan in blue robes. Thus, they not only become more color-coordinated with other upgraded units but also evoke some nostalgia for the third part of Heroes.
DemonLordFlagman This mod places a imp-squire next to an Inferno faction hero, similar to the squire of a Haven hero.
- AnimationMods
1.WarDancer - Mod changes the attack animation of Death Dancers in the Sylvan town.
Now it looks like he is a dancer
2.StalkerAttackMod - Small mod replacing the stalker's attack animation with a more spectacular one — the one used for counterattacks.
(Author: ArchWarlock)
Gems&mine_3.0 For those who don't want to settle for the new look of gems and feel nostalgic for classic colorful stones, the mod changes the texture and all icons of this resource, as well as the gems in the chest at the mine. - Useful mod
- SpeedNymph + SpeedMagi Many have long been tired of the animation of mages who whisper something for a very long time before casting a spell… Thanks to the SpeedMagi mod, all Mages cast spells faster, plus the voice acting for Archmages during casting becomes the same as for Battle Mages. The SpeedNymph mod does something similar with Nymphs — they fly at the same speed as Dryads.
- War Dancer From Art Remember that in the art, Death Dancers had orange blades? This mod returns their true beauty! Realistic mod.
- Female Heroes New 3.0 This mod adds female models to all heroines on the strategic map and in battle mode. Now Demons, Knights, Warlocks, Barbarians, and even Necromancers have their own heroines.
The main file of the mod is Female Heroes New 3.0, and the Ornella file adds the model of Ornella from the campaign to Necromancers.
Elves_mod_Ilve Mod that changes the model for Bow Masters. Hood and tattoos removed. Icon redone.
DungeonBetaRider Gives a shield to the alternative upgrade Lizard Riders from the Dungeon faction. Includes an old mod with riders from the beta. (Author: Azard, ntu4ka, Protoss, ArchWarlock)
PegasusMod Mod that replaces yeti with pegasus. Stats are at unicorn level. Abilities - infinite retaliation, blinding, 25% magic resistance, flyer.
Runemage_Hangvul Mod dedicated to dwarven priests. Based on the old Hangvul icon — Rune Priests in gold were drawn based on it.
Treants_ToE Mod for ents from the beta. Alternative upgrade is present; all animations work correctly.
PRT Beta 0.3 + Homm5_SoS_Nowe_Obiekty.pak (
https://yadi.sk/d/Kwv3ATsTknvNA). Wonderful mods that change textures in the game. The game is sometimes transformed beyond recognition, making it feel like you're playing something new. You can download them in the thread via this link:
/topic/11538/ These mods may conflict with others.
RMMS v0.2.2. Compatible with NCF, which makes the project several times more valuable since it provides the opportunity to replace old neutrals with new ones! You can download it in the thread via this link:
/topic/at/631679/- "New Objects" mod A remake of a Polish mod; in the original, these objects were very large and sometimes blocked the road. Located here:
https://vk.com/heroesworld- new_sub_enter_exit.rar mod replaces the appearance of the dungeon entrance and exit with the version from Heroes VI. Download from here:
http://narod.ru/disk/65094627001.4e11c7892f6d5eb6d1...er_exit.rar.html- Doc_Skills_3_0_3 Possible conflicts with other mods.
http://www.mediafire.com/download/8pul6olccmufdoc/Doc_Skills_3_0_3.h5u- Fast AI move + smart AI (useful mod, but it conflicts with others)
/topic/7746/Mods we would like to see in the new build:- full list:
/forum/section/288/- "Harmony" – a modification for Heroes V is being prepared on the HW forum with such a beautiful name. The essence of the mod lies in transforming the graphical component, resolving controversial issues of logic and balance, improving the quality composition of heroes, units and their abilities, as well as much more that can improve the game that has taken its niche in the hearts of players. More details can be found in the thread:
/topic/10898/- EV (extended version) - Mod adding new content to the game, namely:
1) New heroes - from the NHF project
2) New neutral creatures, partially from the NCF project.
/topic/at/800599/- NTBF - mod that adds new buildings to towns and changes the building plan.
/topic/at/620118/- Unique Role-Playing Edition mod, which implements 24 hero classes (3 per faction)
- a mod that would add new artifacts to the game
- mod for alternative hero progression:
/topic/9491/MusicIt is magnificent. There is no point in deleting anything. One can only add the best from all 7 parts. Musical compositions from all parts are posted on rutracker, for example:
http://rutracker.org/forum//topic/3897731/Maps, Scenarios, CampaignsFull list here:
/forum/section/159/ In particular, we would like to see:
CAMPAIGNS- "For the Queen!" - A campaign that is a reincarnation of a campaign from Heroes III.
"Fall of Shantiri" - "LegendShantiri" Includes videos!
Description: long before the birth of the Seventh Dragon, the same Empire of Shantiri existed. Six of the strongest mages of the Empire formed a Council. Gathering together, they could perform the impossible with their boundless magical power...
- "Empire of Unicorn" - From the author: The campaign tells of events that occurred after the “Tribes of the East” campaign and precede “Dark Messiah”.
I recommend playing the "Ambassador" map, as the campaign continues the plot of this scenario. The continuation of the campaign is the mission "Last Rush".
[CAMPAIGN] Beginning of the end - Consists of:
New Threat
Path of the Outcast
In the Depths of Hell
Return of the Hero
Son of the Devil
Ice and Fire
Prologue
"Colonization" (3 missions) A unique structure "Pyramid" has been added to the map, allowing fallen warriors to be resurrected during battle, turning them into mummies. A script for the battle with the main hero
(Arix) has been added. Quicksands have been added to the "Dead Lands" territory.
SCENARIOS:- "Ambassador" - a prequel to the Empire of Unicorn campaign.
- Return of a hero
- The Pack Leader
The scenario is the beginning of a three-mission Campaign. The map tells of an Orc Hero, Drayhar, who, after long wanderings, returned home, which essentially no longer exists. What adventures he had to endure, you can find out for yourself.
"Last Rush" From the author: Epilogue to the "Empire of Unicorn" campaign.
- End of darkness
- "Travel" You can play as any race; there are quests (some very difficult), riddles, hard-to-kill opponents who sometimes don't need to be killed. The computer spends almost no in-game time! Also, you may encounter obstacles on the map that seem insurmountable at first glance, but in reality, it is not that complicated. I advise reading signs more often.
- "Dispel"
- "Heroes of Ashan: Antares"
- "The Elemental Union" From the author:
Interesting points:
-New hero - Titanus.
-New ability - Lightning.
-Four absolutely new (modified) heroes.
-Unit improvements - Titans.
-Improved set of Sar-Elam artifacts.
-Boss: Lord of Elements.
-Complex plot tasks.
-Interesting battles.
-Ability to develop a special skill up to tens of thousands of damage units.
-Well-developed landscape, fully filled map.
- The Pack Leader 2: The Fall of the Empire
from Author: I want to add that the Map combines Tactical Strategy, where each computer player finds themselves in a special situation, as defender or attacker; furthermore, the Future Development of the war depends only on the player's actions. You can form alliances, complete tasks for each race, and the outcome of the war will depend on how you act. Additionally, the map contains two quest plotlines, each leading to "its own" victory, as well as several interesting side quests that simplify the gameplay process. Unlike the first part, you can now hire as many heroes as you want; however, they cannot complete all tasks, especially main ones, but they can participate in all key battles if they wish, of course. Also, there is a "Cheat" system on the map for those who don't have a console, or just because. But they will only become available after an "honest" completion (more accurately, you won't know them before then). I also want to note that combining plot tasks and making the AI perform its role without losing anything in the process is actually quite difficult, so I will be glad for any reasoned criticism or comments. Good luck!
- "Sword and Sorcery 3". From the author: the map includes:
- More than 40 thousand lines of code reshaping game mechanics inside and out.
- Almost a megabyte of text helping you immerse yourself better in the game world.
- Three dozen quests and several dozen game characters that won't let you stay idle for long.
- A dialogue system increasing interactivity and convenience of interaction with characters and objects.
- Dynamic lighting and weather changes, creating its own special flow of time on the map.
- A system of travel spells supplementing the usual combat magic.
- A chemistry skill allowing the creation of both simple and compound potions.
- Detailed and always available completion statistics to satisfy lovers of strict reporting.
- An achievement system for those who find simple statistics insufficient.
- A random event system designed to add a small element of surprise to travels.
- Its own mini-game, providing an opportunity to distract from the main gameplay and pleasantly spend some gold. And a whole wagon of other smaller changes and additions. At the same time, many standard gameplay elements, such as building towns, capturing mines, and pursuing enemy heroes, were cut. I hope you won't miss them.
P.S. Fans of the Might & Magic series should be doubly pleased with this map. At least, I put a lot of effort into it.
- grate earth
From Author: This is not my first map, but the only one worthy of me posting it. Every player has their own advantages (which are sometimes not immediately apparent) and disadvantages. Treasures on the map are not distributed very evenly; there are completely unnecessary and useless places on the map, but that makes the game more interesting! After all, if I had simply created equal conditions for everyone, how would this map differ from multiplayer? The downsides of the map are that artifacts are quite well hidden and you will only get them if your mindless enemy manages to conquer most of the territory and you have to pursue him.
