Posts from Open campaign in the editor.

Hey guys, I have a question. I found this thread /topic/8766/, but the editor doesn't open maps from the Heroes Chronicles expansion; it says there's no .h3c file in the folder with the campaign, which is located in the Heroes game directory. So, my question is, how do I open them?

What version of "Heroes" do you have? The "Chronicles of Heroes" Campaigns, like all story campaigns, are "hardcoded" into the resource files (*.lod), which are essentially archives in a proprietary format. There are utilities for unpacking resources from game files, but I haven't used them and cannot say immediately where to get them. At the same time, all "Chronicles of Heroes" campaigns are also available as separate *.h3c files, which can be opened with a standard campaign editor and from which individual maps (scenarios) can be extracted.

Thanks, problem solved

.h3c "Chronicles" unpacked from .lod cannot be opened by either the SoD or WoG editor:

Incorrect campaign file version!

File version: 7
Current version: 6

OK

Patching the file manually so that it opens is quite difficult (those interested can check the format at http://heroescommunity.com/viewthread.php3?TID=25570&PID=593180), so to view the maps, use the link from #2, where this has already been done.
