No, you say "Lord of the Dead" when you refer to ALL dead people, for example. 
 
I know, it's strange, but it doesn't have a plural.

it's past participle from "die" so no s 
 
only nouns get the letter

Quote: No, you say "Lord of the Dead" when you refer to ALL dead people, for example.
   
 
Seigneur des Morts 
 
And 
 
Seigneur de la Mort 
 
it's very different. 
 
 
Seigneur des Morts --> when you refer to ALL dead people, for example. 
 
 
Seigneur de la Mort --> He is the Lord of the Death (Directly this  existence form) 
 
So, in English, maybe this diffrence is: 
 
 
Lord of the Dead 
 
and 
 
Lord of the Death

To come back to initial subject ( ) I have to tell you... GOOD NEWS ! 
 
I mailed Sfidanza, because this situation cannot continue to last. I mean the editor situation. 
He and I concludes that the problem come from the index.bin file, taking place in the NCF__MapEditorCore.pak. He told me he "will see if he can repackage a 3.1 version a bit complete for this weekend. At least something was done to there." 
Good news then !

Nice, but I already got far in placing these 300+ creatures only by scripts   
 
Hopefully now you'll see a NCF map sooner, for example before the release of H6

Indeed, it's a great news. 
 
But, I don't still understand why I able to use NCF editor, to see and to use NCF Creatures without « NCF__MapEditor_Core.pak » 
 
Does Sfidanza work on fans manual 3.1?

i ask him why we were able to do so. 
And for the manual, I dunno, he only said : 
"However I'm completely immerged in the manual updating to version 3.1. "

I am indeed working on the 3.1 manual update. So sadly I don't have the time right now to investigate what's happening with the 3.1 editor. I will get back to it, but I'll be happy if you find the solution in the meantime.   
 
It's great that you updated the exe by yourself, and continued to update the list. As soon as I have the time, I'll update the project page on heroes-fr as well, to synchronize it with the list here. 
 
The main issue I have with the project is that there is no satisfactory architecture in place that would allow distributed creation of creatures, and yet centralized information and download. What I'd like is to have a repository, to avoid some creatures becoming unavailable with time, but at the same time let authors have complete control over their files. 
Additionally, as I discussed with Gnoll_Mage some time ago, it would be great if there could be a desktop client to directly import the creatures into the game: in other words, a desktop GUI to a web service. 
 
Sadly, I won't have the time to develop those tools in the near future, but that would really be a great project to work on, for a web developer, so I'll keep it in my todo list.

Hi sfidanza, 
 
I'm glad to read you. that made a long time. 
 
For my share and as you know my own project always has been a great RMG.  
 
I'm very close of. 
 
I've in my computer all the 119 NCFs created for now. 
 
RTMG is able to include into random maps all NCFs automatically and creates automatically dwellings for them  
just by scanning mods from H5 folders. 
 
This is just a beginning, you cannot even suspect yet what RTMG is able, all its new features. 
 
This doesn't count the adding of a lot a new objects as all water objects.  
Because the water is finally happened. 
 
Apart your "bible" and my project, I objectively think NCFs is the greatest of all projects made for H5. 
 
I follow very close NCF evolution.

Hmmm I'll think to this tool... 
A Web-program that download and install NCF creatures ? It is surely realisable with Visual C++. 
I'll think to it.

Making good use of the longest holidays of my life, I'm close to finish the design of my map meant to be showcase for NCF project and promote the mods you created. 
 
Creatures featured so far: 
180 - Thunderbird (coming with new texture) 
189 - 193 Elemental Giants 
209 - 211 Dark Angels 
212 - Enchanter 
213 - Sun Warrior 
241 - Cherub 
276 - Evil Sorceress 
291 - Crystal Dragon 
298 - Skeleton Mage 
312 - Ghost Knight 
313 - Guardian Idol 
383 - Mysto Dragon 
385 - Omega Dragon 
387 - Centaur Captain 
 
I'm also looking forward to Fiurs creatures so that I could place really dangerous threats as bosses :] 
Also, if anyone feels like writting a storyline or improve graphical design, plese let me know. 
 
There are still pages of quest code to write down, so it's likely to make major changes.
