Posts from Phoenix Mod for Heroes 3.5 WOG.
In Phoenix Mode, it's organized like this.
When leveling up, the game gives 1000 points. At the same time, a random primary skill is not granted.
The player can "invest" the accumulated points whenever and wherever they want. Moreover, for a warrior, increasing Attack and Defense by one point costs 750 points, while increasing Spell Power and Knowledge costs 1250 points.
The opposite is true for a mage hero.
Is there anything else?
Yes.... the new link also doesn't work :( I can't download the mod! :cry:
DarkSavant, if you have WOG installed, you need to place the *wog file in the Update folder in the root directory of Heroes. After that, run Update.exe. The mod will be installed, and the help file will be extracted into a separate folder in the root directory.
I downloaded the file into the Update folder, clicked on Update.exe, and a window popped up saying that this mod IS BROKEN :( When I click OK, the installation freezes completely :( I tried to extract the contents from the wog file and download the Data folder into the same folder as my game, as well as the files that were in the wog file into the root directory of the game... I enjoyed reading the coveted Help file, but when I launch Phoenix.exe, the game simply doesn't load... please advise :(
I will try to figure out how it works.

In general, you need:
1) A clean Heroes of Might and Magic III (SoD).
2) A clean Heroes of Might and Magic III: The Shadow of Death (WoG) archive.
3) Delete the old files and remove the references from the registry.
Then, install Heroes of Might and Magic III (SoD).
Then, install Heroes of Might and Magic III: The Shadow of Death (WoG) 3.58 (the first time, it will ask for a temporary folder to extract to, and the second time, the folder where the game will be installed).
Then, copy the Russian localization wog files to the update folder and run the update.
Then, extract the mod archive and get the wog archive (it was a 7z file).
Copy the wog archive to the update folder and run the update.
That's it.
Run the Phoenix.Exe file.
The WoG version must be 3.58!
XEL, what about the biographies? Shouldn't we include them?

How do I open a 7Z archive?

Never mind, I figured it out.
