Could you please help me? I'm approaching the Archangel post, and a new quest appears in the tasks, but nothing else happens. It's incredibly frustrating! Could it be a version issue with Heroes? I had version 3, then I patched it to 3.1, but the save file is still from the older version.

Yes, the issue is definitely with the version. You can try sending me the save file, and I might be able to fix it so you can continue the walkthrough.

Here's another solution to the problem, and it's even better:

1. First, you need to enable the console if it's not already enabled. Here's how:

Go to the folder where the game is located. In the "profiles" folder, open the "autoexec_2" file with Notepad. Add the following line to the end of the file:
setvar dev_console_password = schwinge-des-todes, on a separate line.
Next, go to C:\Users\User\Documents\My Games\Heroes of Might and Magic V — Tribes of the East\Profiles\YourProfile
Open the "input_a2" file with Notepad.
In the "//console" section (you can use the search function Ctrl+F), add the following line to the end, on a separate line:
bind show_console '`' (which is the same as ~). The console will now work in the game, and you can open and close it by pressing the ` (~) key.

2. Load the save file. Open the console and type the following line: @startThread(winAF);

After this, the problem should be resolved.

Thank you very much! I've replayed it, and everything is fine now.

Could you please tell me what the archangels near the peasant quest want from me? I approached them with my second hero, and a task was assigned, saying that they need something from me, but it's not specified what exactly. It would be logical if they needed peasants (why else would the quest be given?), but I'm not sure. And if they do need peasants, how many?

I don't remember the script exactly, but it's possible this happened because the main hero didn't approach the angels. They offer 4 options to choose from for completing the task. Above, it was described how to enable the console. I recommend doing this. In the console, type the line @Removeobject("Angel1") and press enter.

MasteR, I wanted to provide them with what they were looking for, but since there isn't a definitive answer there, I'll have to remove it. But overall, the map is engaging. It was a bit difficult and boring at first, but now that the heroes have leveled up, it's become more interesting to play. So, thank you for your work!

Hello, can you tell me how to outmaneuver the elf on the first turn of the game? I've already tried everything I could think of, but it doesn't work.

There's an issue with the angels; I approached them with the main hero (Sigrif), and the quest in the journal only requires me to learn their wishes. The script @startThread(winAF); isn't working.
I don't want to delete them; is there any other way to fix this?

Yes, when I approach an angel, this appears in the console:
[Script warning!] value was NIL when getting global with name "TalkBoxForPlayers"
(Script) Error: attempt to call a NIL value

It seems you're using version 3.0 of the game.

You must have version 3.0 of the game.

3.1j enhanced AI
But other scripts work, and there are no problems with them on other maps. But on this map, there are problems with three: angels, the ore caravan (if the overturned cart is it), and I can't pay the 2000 gold tax (maybe because of the caravan), although I had no problems with other peasants.

This is an unofficial build, so the error might be due to that.

I know. I ran the save file on the licensed version of the game 3.1, and the result is the same.

Saving the game won't help; the changes will only take effect if you start a new map. It might be worth asking the author how to bypass the angels using workarounds.

I also had issues with scripts not working in a duel map under 3.1j EE (and even under the RPE-based EE), and in the duels themselves, there were no elemental effects on the creatures of the Academy for Erin, and the enhanced slowing cold spell didn't trigger with luck, which, as is known, was fixed in patch 3.1. Something Quantomas isn't telling us...

This is an unofficial build, so the error might be due to that.

This isn't just any build; it's the Eternal Essence mod.
I searched through Heroescommunity, and in the EE forum, it says that some resources were taken from 3.1, and some from 3.0, which is why these script issues are popping up. It's like they're trying to fix them, but I don't remember when the last update was. But, like, Quantomas didn't promise anything to anyone...
