Herald, if you're interested in creating maps, please join the Restoration team. We'll be focusing on that, and also tying them together with a storyline. Maybe we can learn from each other.

A Necropolis in the middle of a blooming valley? :D :smile26:
How many neutral dwellings should there be?

But can't you do it even in the storyline? :smile26:

No, no, no! It's not necessary according to the plot.

No, no, no! It shouldn't be part of the storyline.

Honestly, the idea is absurd. I can't stand it when the real world and the world of Heroes are intertwined in the most unappealing way. There won't be Lake Baikal in Antagarich.
Well, you're wrong. In HoMM3, there's an XL map (I don't remember the exact name, but it's from the original game, not the expansions) where the gods and heroes of Ancient Greece are featured. If NWC thought that it was acceptable to introduce the epic of Hellas into the world of Heroes for variety, then such an approach definitely has the right to exist.

4. When creating a map, consider the geographical location and its connection to the plot. If you are making a map in Erathia, take a real map and consider all the features of the continent that were created before you.

I don't feel like checking the Antagarich map. :smile05:

Hi everyone, sorry if I'm asking in the wrong section. I drew a map, but it won't launch; the game crashes halfway through loading with the message: "Runtime error, abnormal program terminator." I checked the map, and it only shows unregistered artifacts as errors, just like on standard maps. What could be the problem? Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know how to create their own heroes, monsters, etc.? If it's even possible... There was some kind of "time market" in one of the maps here, which really interested me... It seems to be the author's creation... Can you tell me how these are made?...
By the way, Predvestnik posted a map called "Baikal" here... In short, I was very pleased with the cows in the meadow! Well, they're not really cows, but mighty gorgons!)

The "time market" is an "invention" of WOG, if I'm not mistaken... It doesn't exist in other versions... But in WOG, there are many interesting new features and objects in general. You can customize and/or change a lot of things yourself.

Please be more precise!... And go into more detail!
I hope it's generally clear what I mean! In the sense of something completely new...

The Time Market is an "invention" of WoG, if I'm not mistaken... It's not in other versions.... But then again, WoG has plenty of various features..

Same here... Could you be more detailed? Who is it, what is it, where is it, how does it work?)) Because honestly, this is the first time I've heard of it!...
By the way, for some reason, this time market is just a pretty picture for me! In the sense that when you enter it, nothing happens! Maybe it doesn't launch in The Shadow of Death?...
