Good day!

Could you please tell me how to disable specific spells (Dimension Door, Fly, etc.) in the game, similar to how it's implemented in WoG?

Or is it necessary to develop a plugin for this?
If it can only be done through a plugin, how are plugins created? Is there an example available?

Thank you in advance.

I found it on df2.

Is there a mod that displays the damage dealt during an attack next to the creature (like in Heroes 4)? Some might say it's a crude solution, but personally, I think it would add convenience, because often many stacks attack, and to see who dealt what damage, you have to open the log, which is now possible, before it took a long time to scroll through. By the way, for convenience, the log could mark damage from magic and creatures with different colors, as well as damage dealt by allied and enemy troops. This would simplify reading the log and finding the necessary numbers. Of course, it's not authentic and all that, but as a plugin, why not? What are your thoughts?

If anyone is interested, I found a patch online that translates the game into German! I tried installing it on two computers (the versions might be slightly different, but both are 4.0). On one, it installs perfectly, and on the other, there are some glitches when creating a map. But the gameplay is great on both versions.
It's added just like other modules. You copy it to the folder with the other patches, and then activate it in the HD mod.

I'm attaching it below.

Good day, could you please tell me where to download and how to install the XXL patch, as far as I know that's what it's called, which increases the size of the maps. Thank you.

Increased map sizes are only available in Horn of the Abyss, which is a mod for Shades of Darkness. It works perfectly with the HD mod.

I would like to share another plugin for the HD-Mod – MegaPack_Rus (this is not the outdated one that was replaced by SuperPack). It’s an alternative to SuperPack_Rus. Like SP, it fixes graphical inconsistencies in Russian localizations and also significantly improves fonts and the translation itself.
The translation incorporates all the best elements from SoD and Complete. It has been maximally adapted for the Russian language (many phrases and sentences have been reworked). Each translation file has been carefully reviewed.
In addition, the translation includes a lot of useful reference information (from FizMiG and other sources), which will be helpful both for beginners and experienced players.
More detailed information, as well as other translations can be found here.

HoMM3 HD Pack - MegaPack_Rus 1.1 for HD Mod (compatible with SoD, Complete):

HoMM3 HD Plugin - MegaPack_Rus 1.1 for HD Mod (compatible with Complete):

PS: The difference between Plugin and Pack (MegaPack_Rus 1.1) lies only in the graphical elements that are installed by default.

I once saw a plugin for quickly upgrading units in the castle, if the building is constructed and there are enough resources (using the key combination: A + left mouse button – relevant for Soda and HotA – maybe someone has it. Please share it).

The plugin allows you to upgrade creatures in a town using the key combination [left mouse button + A] (left mouse button + "A" in the English layout or "F" in the Russian layout):
- [left mouse button + A] on the hero icon (or flag): upgrade all creatures for that hero/town. Exceptions: Skeletons to Skeleton Warriors, Corsairs to Sea Wolves (for HotA), creature upgrade specialists (e.g., Jelu);
- [left mouse button + A] on a stack: upgrade the selected stack. Exceptions: Corsairs to Sea Wolves (for HotA), creature upgrade specialists (e.g., Jelu);

And where should it be placed so that it starts generating income?

Just like any other plugin for the HD mod:
It needs to be copied to "..[Your Heroes folder]\_HD3_Data\Packs[Any name]\.." and this "Any name" needs to be enabled in the HD mod launcher.

Thank you, I've already figured it out. I would also like to thank one of the users above for the Megapack.

I wanted to do something good, but it turned out as always. The idea of megapack 1.1 was probably good, but it loads a lot of information that is completely unnecessary in the game. That's why special reference guides exist. The hint should contain a brief description, not the entire genealogy to the seventh generation. Too much information just confuses people. This is not a bureaucratic document with awkward, but seemingly correct phrases. You need to write briefly, but in a way that it is easy to read and the essence of the question is immediately clear.
I can only thank you for the fact that, having seen this creation, I decided to check out the superpack myself and correct it.
