Really looking forward to the update, but I understand the developers are really busy ATM. Is there any ETA? When did the last update release?

Sorry, but we cannot give any estimations on the date of release. The problem is that the key team members that are needed in order to finish the remaining content for HotA 1.5.0 have unfortunately been very busy with irl stuff since January and had no chance to contribute to the project since then. This means that while most of the content for the update is finished, we'll still need to wait some more for these HotA crew members to get a chance to finish whatever is on their plate, after which we'll be able to release the update. And no, we can't release HotA 1.5.0 without that content, since everything is interconnected in one way or another, and releasing some of the features without releasing others will hurt the gameplay.
So, to clarify any confusion:
— It's not some irresolvable problem with implementing a new feature
— It's not HotA crew not being interested in releasing the update or being lazy
— It's not the project being frozen or cancelled.
It's about time. As simple as that. Each one of us has responsibilities outside our hobbies: work, studying, family. Sometimes people just need to deal with the important stuff and put everything else aside. So:
Sorry for the delay, the update is coming, but we don't know when exactly. Thanks for your patience, it will be worth the wait.

Great news. I had tons of problems with connecting to other player by Hamachi or Gameranger. That was the reason why I have barely played HOMM3's multi. I was "forced" to play solo / hot seat with close friends.
This and RMG Template Editor ( revealed 2 months ago) might be HOTA's biggest innovation since map editor. It might reborn online community.
I wonder if you concider adding new 2v2 , 3v3 , 2v2v2 maps to expand new opportunities you are going to give with multiplayer built- in HD MOD.
Hope that in uppcomming weekes we gonna see few new screenshots form the 1.5. Im really curious about new stuff you designed.

Just run the editor as an administrator, should fix the issue.

It seems that those are the only ones available.
As far as I know, currently the only available way to make a campaign for Hota would be directly contacting Hota team. IIRC Hota team has said at some point that they're planning to release Campaign editor of their own, but I don't know anything about it's current state.

Hi.Any help, I'm playing the map "Jedi story" with HD-hota and cant access to certain elements (monolith and fountain of youth) placed next to water with boots of levitation equipped or water walk. Is it a known bug or fixable somehow? Some people seem to get to those items as I watched it from youtube.
Would appreciate your help a lot!
Cheers, FinTred

In HotA you cannot land at trigger square with waterwalk. So, probably, it is impossible to finish this map in HotA. It is not bug, it is one of the gameplay changes (that makes impossible to steal guarded objects with fly). But some SoD maps might become not compatible with HotA. Maybe one day we'll disable all or at least the most breaking changes for SoD maps (it is not easy to do) or someone will make the HotA-versions for popular maps.

It seems that there's a new terrain with HotA, Fields of Glory. I can't find an explanation from HotA's own website - what's the function of said terrain?

A tip, if you open the map editor, you can right click on an object and read the description. It says 'Gives all troops -2 Luck'.
