Ideas for new towns
I have a great idea on creating new towns for WoG. Actually i wanted to make a new Homm3 mod but i realised that it would become way to complicated on my own. Well, however, i thought about making a pair of almost similiar towns except that the first one are completely good (no evil spells, no evil monster abilities etc...) and the second evil (evil spells, evil monster abilities etc...). The only problem is that i don't know how to make them. A really tricky problem should be how to make all the units (lvl 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8... and the upgrades for 1-7 of course). That reminds me of something? Does anybody know how to make your own heroes and if that is possible? Please answer.

This Russian site (the link leads to the translated page) says that "in particular, (it) is decided to enter a new city 'Bastion' with a native sandy landscape. As monsters slaves, scorpions, nomads, murderers, priests, elephants and anubisy (not including the improved versions) are authorized."
The translation may be bad, or perhaps I've misunderstood the article: this proposal has been accepted by the WoG team?!

OK, here's a third post in the row, just to prove I wasn't talking to myself there.
The authors of the project seem to be active at the aforementioned Russian site. The news at the home page said a new town was planned for the 3.59 update, but the item was quickly changed.
The developers have started a thread on this topic over at CH and the discussion about new possibilities, creatures etc followed.
It would be great if the the next patch included a whole new town, but it would also be nice if WoG team members or the authors of the project confirmed anything...

What did you need confirmed exactly and by who?
Since the project developers started the thread on CH fairly recently, I don't suppose there's any more information now than before. Note that I also posted in the thread and so did Slava.
I think both Slava and my post were fairly clear: I wrote that as far as I know there's no definite timeline on the project right now, and also that I don't think Slava will know for sure if he can get new town coding to work until he tries (which of course would have to wait until we see if the town team complete all the town and creature graphics).
Slava wrote that if he can add a new town, he should be able to make it fairly customizable (e.g., if there's more than one set of town graphics ready, a player or mapmaker may be able to choose which set to use at map start).
One thing I didn't write before is that I imagine that adding a new town (if possible) will create a lot of bugs, both in the regular WoG game and also with many scripts that don't yet know how to handle a new town type, so it could take quite awhile to sort everything out and get it working smoothly. (But this is mostly speculation on my part.)

OK, I guess I should apologize now, since you sounded a bit defensive there... I didn't want to attack nobody. Actually, I should have written "comment" instead of "confirm".
I am a member of both CH's Round Table and HC forums, so I felt the fans here could also take part in that interesting discussion, especially since a whole new town would be the most significant update since the introduction of ERM, commanders and creature experience.

Okay, no problem. I was just puzzled by what you were asking as I thought we had already done that (on CH). As for comments (such as more detailed comments), it still seems too early to discuss it much.
What I mean is that the WoG Team really hasn't discussed it much because it's still too early in the process, and because the initial development (graphics, creatures, basic ideas) is still entirely in the hands of the Russian team--they're separate from the WoG Team but we'll obviously all work together to make this happen if it can be done.
I'm sure the WoG Team will discuss a lot of things if and when it gets to that point where the graphics all all completed, and we'll likely post at least a few bits of information to the forums at that time.
Currently we're working on MP fixing for 3.58f scripts, general fixing of 3.58f script bugs (we plan a script update in the next few months), new scripts for 3.59, and discussion of various ideas, etc.
Aside from initial discussions and new scripts, work on 3.59 has not yet begun.
As for general fan discussion, by all means! It will certainly be exciting to see a new town if it works out. I think the Russian town team already have pretty definite ideas about what they want in the town, so it seems unlikely they're looking for suggestions, but speculation is always fun.

Haven't the authors already decided on the creatures?
