How does this mod behave with EWA?

No way. EWA is a collection of mods that, taken together, bring about global changes. No single global mod can be compatible with another global mod; it's strange to try to fit a horse into a car's interior. Install a second copy of the game in a different folder and install the mod you're interested in there. It's a different matter that some specific, non-global mods can be tried to be extracted from EWA and mixed in here, if there are people willing to do it.

Understood, thank you.

Downloaded the mod, installed it on the Steam version (it's in English there). Downloaded the Russian language pack, but it doesn't want to localize the game; it says that the game is not installed, which prevents me from playing with the Russian language. How can I fix this?

Nargott is correct!

Let us know what there is in EWA you want to see in HoMM55. We will check this out.

Is there an English version of EWA?

Which mod - HoMM 5.5 or EWA?
For HoMM55, it needs to be installed in the Tribes of the East folder.
Before that, make sure Tribes of the East is version 3.1 (or 3.01).

I don't think so.

Is the "NCF MegaPack" compatible with MMH5.5?

Hello.
Is there any way to edit the maps of this mod using the editor?
I'm interested in removing a large number of neutral castles.

After making this change, when saving, it displays some kind of warning, and the game no longer recognizes the map.
Hello Kiko!

There are 2 type of maps to edit.

1. Heroes 5.5 map - Open it with editor do the changes and save the map. You will get warnings about "adventure map objects spells not set". Disregard it. This is due to spells and rewards being randomized.

2. normal heroes 5 map - Old maps need to have their scripts activated so they can offer all the benefits of the mod.

Check this guide it shows how to create a new map and activate scripts.

When you have created a map, put it in <game folder>/maps folder.

I read the manual (activating maps with a patcher).

Maybe it matters that I'm creating a map for multiple players... It shows a different error (I don't remember exactly what it is right now).

Even launching it in the editor (MMH5.5 Editor shortcut) breaks the map. Without making any changes. I.e., I played the map -> launched the editor (to view it) -> couldn't load the save.
Aha I see. Never seen this before. Could you provide some info of your computer?

how much RAM, CPU power, VGA?
Does it happen on every single map you open?
What is the size of the map that is edited? Try with smaller ones and let me know.

kiko, this is a normal situation for RMG maps. It's a protection against "hacking." It's not related to Heroes 5.5!
If you open the map-tag.xdb file of a map using WinRAR + Notepad, there's a special flag there:
false
For random maps, it's:
true
Opening it in the editor changes this flag from true to false, which is the cause of all the problems. However, it's possible that there's another similar flag somewhere else, but this should be enough; please check.

It was interesting to read, but it seems the problem lies elsewhere.

The same happens with the smallest maps. After launching the map in the editor, its size becomes 1KB (not immediately, but after finishing working on it).


P.S. It seems this only happens with maps created using MMH55_Utility.

Sometimes Utility.exe causes issues, and also you can't activate scripts for LAN games. I guess this was the root of your issue.

When attempting to rebuild a town, it displays the following message:
"You have gained the ability to rebuild the town."
(instead of actually rebuilding it).

Everything is working fine for me. Could you please share a screenshot?
