@Asheera,

  If my speciality is too difficult to mod let me know and I will try to change to something else.

Well the specialties can't be modded (only some numbers tweaked - but even then not all can be changed). BUT this doesn't mean you have to create a "normal" special, some heroes here have new specials. However, you should also select and tell me about a specialty that is in the game and is the closest to your special as possible, so I can use that in the mod instead.

And I'm waiting for Lexxan to "finalize" the hero texts first

Hero texts?

Anyway, I've made MarcusX in the meanwhile.

Marcus the Warlock

Biography Marcus never was a good fighter. Not being a good tactician, he got defeated many times in battle. However, Marcus learnt from his Mistakes, even more than from his victories. His motto, "Defeat only makes me Stronger" reflects this strategy. he used to be despised and Underestimated, but now Marcus is feared for his feared hit-and-run Tactics, Tactics that turn out to be pretty effective against any kind of opponent. If Marcus Sences an enemy, he doesn't hesitate: He hastens to the Battle wreaks havoc for a short time and then flees from the Battlefield before he get's caught or killed. A terrible foe indeed.

Specialty: Battered Survivor: The Hero gains Experience from Defeats. In addition all experience from Vicories and Defeats is increased by 2% and 3% per Hero level respecively. No matter how he got defeated, the Hero can always be recruited in the Tavern after defeat. [Get's Vinraels Special]

Skills Basic Irrestable magic
        Basic Defence - Protection

Note: An Expert for Armageddon Tactics.


Also, I've got an I dea for Skele

Well I have added you to my mod but I'm still waiting for Lexxan to finish broadstrong before I release it... 1 hero per a mod update is kinda too small of a change especially now that I know there will be at least one more.

Use Brand's. His special is the closest to Broadstrong's.

That's the problem when my speciality is too specialised (pun not intended)...cannot be modded.  Anyway I am ok with Lexxan's suggestion.

@Asheera,

  Please check my post (last post at page 11) for some changes.  However it is up to you to decide whether to effect the change.

Well that's what I meant: after you make another hero I'll add him/her to the Mod and upload it (with the modified broadstrong)

own hero

i was redirected here by a bloke from the Questions on modding forum;
I wanted some sort of guide of tut to make my own hero, not just modifying the portrait, back story and skills, i wanted to create my own perks and specialty.

and change the actual "in-game" 3d appearance of my character

Wow, that's complicated

The first file to find is "data.pak\MapObjects\TownName\HeroName.xdb"

Where TownName is the name of the faction the hero is in (e.g. Dungeon, Haven) and HeroName is the name of the Hero (NOTE: Most Heroes have a different name than the one in the game!)

Also you can't change specialties, only give the hero an existing one.

so can i modify an existing specialty?

take Naadir the necromancer, i want his ability but instead of summoning friendly ghosts, i want to summon waiths when i kill a friendly stack of creatures during a battle.

is there an editor for hero units in HOMMV other than manually editing them? thanks for the help

No you can't modify specialties, only give heroes the currently existing ones.

For example, you can give Vladimir Naadir's specialty, but you can't make it raise Wights instead of Ghosts.

And there is no editor for this... you have to do it manually with Notepad.
