Posts from NHF – new heroes for Heroes V 3.1.

Can a dead Elf not be a Necromancer?

I agree, there are as many opinions as there are people, but I wanted to talk about this infamous "re-skinning." As far as I know, it's impossible to create conceptually new heroes here (in Heroes 5). I'm working on modeling for Warcraft 3 (it's fundamentally different), but I wanted to point out that even the developers weren't afraid to use this very "re-skinning" for their heroes (Shadia sends her regards). If you unfold her texture, you can see the familiar Dusk Witch, and even a novice in Heroes 5 like me managed to put it on the same witch with simple manipulations in Photoshop in 15 minutes. So why not do the same? Sure, the hero will "look like" a unit, but that doesn't mean he won't be different. You can create a truly unique hero (considering one hero per patch, 1-2 months). I see you're making heroes, creating icons and unique abilities for them (you're doing great in this), but they're all clones, just copies of each other. Doesn't a hero deserve his own model? After all, it's a hero, not a cloned "jerk" on a dead horse where it's unclear whether it's a man or a woman. Take the Swamp Witch, recolor her, and remove the rudimentary spikes and needles – that would be a "re-skin," but wouldn't anyone mind working on her geometry? Put her on a mount, and finally, surpass yourself and create a decent animation for shooting a bow. I think you're capable of that, and then the project will truly be unique and have no analogues. This also applies to heroes of other factions; there is plenty of room for imagination; all that's needed is the desire to create magnificent models.

So, if you have experience with mods, why not try to do it yourself?
Maybe your ideas could be useful ;)
I doubt psatkha will bother with a female elf model. As far as I know, it's quite complicated.

It's unlikely that psatkha will bother with a female elf model. As far as I know, it's quite complicated.

It's better to make 100,500 clones of the same thing, as they say, moving a mug from one shelf to another.

And what does the Moon look like?
And could you post a picture of what Sylvanas looks like?

Because there is experience in a completely different type of software, moreover, I don't have the time or desire to start working on modeling for Heroes 5. It's complex, but not impossible. Surely, as modders, you yourselves wouldn't be interested in creating something complex and something that no one has done yet (at least I haven't found it)? It's better to make 100,500 clones of the same thing, as they say, moving a mug from one shelf to another.

Someone has already worked on female special unit models quite thoroughly, almost Psatkha himself. If this still doesn't exist, there are reasons for that... I think it's an unfavorable ratio of the quality of the result to the complexity of the task.

Yes, it would be better to share the Sylvan picture, which could be used to create a good icon.
Just a warning: no anime style.

I can't upload the image myself, but here's a link:

Which one would be more suitable?

Understood, please provide a more detailed biography of the desired heroine!

I once created a hero based on a foot soldier. The experience was negative: it was too small, and hard to see. Either this model needs to be made about one and a half times larger, or a larger model should be used from the start, or a mount should be used: one of these options would be highly desirable.
