Which map? Also make sure to start a new game. Your old games won't work with the plugin.


I checked on the new maps. And I also noticed: it doesn't work on campaigns, random maps and SOD maps

Probably something with your Heroes 3 installation? Try to reinstall SoD or Complete.

I'm just using the Era. Maybe because of this errors constantly?

I haven't tested it with ERA/WOG. It's for SoD 3.2 or Complete (with HD mod).

Fix for Mage Guilds.
Now the plugin knows what spells which MAY appear in a Mage Guild are, and what those which MUST appear.
Fix for summoning elementals in network game.

Updated the link in the first post.

1)Can you rework your plugin for Era,please?)
2)If you want,you can see many new spells in VCMI(f.e.emons,ghost,wraith and trees summons) and many others interesting

Which version of ERA do you play? If you'll provide this section from your crash logs

Exception
{
  Module: Heroes3 HD.exe
  Adress:      [ 0x0046A09C ]
  Code:        EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION
  Flags:       0x00000000
  Information: read of address: 0x00005A5A
}


I may be able to see where you have problems, and maybe will come up with a fix.

I'm using the Era Launcher version, currently Era 3.9.1, and the plugin seems to load fine. I haven't had time to play a game with the spells to actually test them, but they do appear in the spell book with the cheat.

What I don't really understand is why, on Good to Go map, using Conflux with grail built, I'm getting only 6 of 11 spells for Era, and 7 spells for Complete version, and they slightly differ between the two. For instance, I get Summon Sprites on Era, but I get Summon Magic Elemental on Complete. Or I get Age on Era and Summon Firebird on Complete.

This was with the latest plugin version you just posted.

Edit: the game seems to be crashing only for Shadow of Death or WoG maps. Works for RoE and AB maps and campaigns.

Thank you for this valuable report. Mage Guild of Conflux with Aurora Borealis needs its own patch for spells which may appear. I will fix it later.

UPD: Done. Updated the link.

Did a quick test on Good to Go map. Now all spells appear in Conflux grail, both in Complete and Era.
The spells themselves work as intended in Era, but the game crashes as soon as you end your turn.

I think it will be hard to make this plugin compatible with ERA. Your crash address is from a dialog panel constructor, with the code of which I didn't messed. I suppose it somehow connected to spell icons which ERA handles differently than SoD.

Also I have a hook on new day start:

_PI->WriteHiHook     (0x4C7CA0, SPLICE_, EXTENDED_, THISCALL_, beforeNewDayStart);

Maybe ERA has too and they both cannot live together?

You could look into getting some help from people who work on/with Era. But even if this can't be solved, it's still nice to have new things for the vanilla game.

Edit: something you should consider, your mod adds a lot of useful spells to the Earth magic school, which is already very powerful. You should work a bit on balancing things.

There exists a different New Spells mod for Era, which adds a Vampirism spell (the same as your Drain Life spell) as an Air magic spell, and I know I've seen Fear as a Fire spell somewhere. You don't have to do it like this, it's just an example.

You should also try to add more spells to Water magic since it's also quite lacking.

Link to that other New Spells mod I've mentioned, in case you want to take a look: http://heroescommunity.com/viewthread.php3?TID=46451

We thought about that. Mainly they are in Earth Magic due to colors. But you can customize new spell parameters editing NewSpells.ini just as you can do it for the original spells in sptraits.txt.

What do you, guys, think about the following spells? Sorry for Google Translate, but it's too much text for me:

Quote:
A couple more non-trivial spells: Horde Strength, Horde Speed, etc. 3rd level spells. Available for study only in Stronghold and only for Barbarians and War Mages. Increase the attack / speed of the target unit in proportion to the sum of attacks / speeds of all barbarian units in the hero's army. The target unit receives a bonus to attack / speed, and Weakness / Slow is imposed on all other barbarian units for 3 rounds. Of course, the increase in attack / speed should be worth the massive debuffs of the rest of the units. Say, not a Three, but a Five? Perhaps, but the same cool spells are spectacular, and still do not require new animations: Horde Strength - Bloodlust animation on the target unit, Weakness on the other barbaric ones, Horde Speed - Haste animation on the target, Slow - on the rest.

I like the idea of the spell. I wouldn't make it just Stronghold exclusive, just make it very rare in other mage guilds. It's probably gonna need a lot of play-testing.

What do you mean? If you mean the picture in the first post, then no, it's my screenshot.

In the process of adding last 5 spells: Explosion, Incineration, Behemoth's Claws, Toughness, and Eye of the Magi with a total of 16 new spells.



Max number of spells supported by the plugin is 128, so there's a space for another 34 spells.
