but i have a question: you said that the new creature replaces the original right? so how do i create a new kind of monster?
Old reply, but I'll quote it since I'd also like an answer.
How to add a new unit without replacing an existing one? I read all the FAQs but didn't find it.

I have Defmaker and i filled in all the information properly, but every time i say "Create Def" it gets to 16% and then it stops responding. Does Defmaker not work in Windows Vista? or is there something i actually am doing wrong and just don't realize it?

No, coz your pic not good like he want, 24bit or something like that. Try standard 8 bit, with 10 special color inserted, he will work

believe it or not, but that wasn't my issue. Defmaker just hates me. I used H3DefTool however and it uploaded perfectly, and in my opinion that program is easier to work with. but either way i figured it out yay! Is there a way to change the icons however? I want the images to match up.

I have the same problem. Def maker accepts some of my made bmp images and do not accept some of em. I checked if all files are 8bit indexed as required and they all were. I cannot think of anything what i possibly did wrong. Could you post link where to download H3DefTool? Googled it and it gave load of snow results which didnt match for what i was looking for.

I've had the same issues with DefMaker, it hangs on 21%. H3DefTool is far superior, and if anyone wants it here's the link;

I want to edit a Pikeman so it has a ranged attack. How do I do that? There's no clear tutorial on this particular subject.

Things to do:
1) Add frames for shoot up, straight and down
2) Search forum for 'making non shooters shoot' as you not only need to add flags for 'is a shooter' but also for the projectile it shoots, which is a memory table. Choose which missile you want.
http://heroescommunity.com/viewthread.php3?TID=33542
3) Open cranim.txt and look at the frames for a shooter (maybe archers). Either copy the columns for the angles to pikemen, or make your own.
4) If missile isn't aligned with pikemen shot, alter angled columns so it lines up. To do this, note that the missle is a square .def and the top right corner (if I am not mistaken) is where the offset it considered.
5) When adding missle frames, note how many you make, and when the missle is 'released' from the pikeman. Let's say its frame 7. In the second to last column of cranim.txt, put a 7 here, and make sure this is the same for shoot up straight and down. It will crash if this number is greater than the number of frames.
Better way: Use 0xFEA's plugin to add a creature, copy pikeman, add flags and everything else, and then you can even have your own missile  .

Can't I replace the new creature indefinitely with Pikeman w/o having to put the ZVSE script in each map?

Yes by making a script in the Data/s folder and putting the command there (and making it always happen and such). But you cannot simply give a pikeman shooting frames and he will magically start shooting. Scripting must be done, but not by map. Check out any of the script##.erm files to get an idea.

I copypasted a pic in Photoshop from a HOMM creature, recolored it and such. I want to replace an existing creature with my recolored one. NOT make a totally new creature. What else should I do?

Find the name of the creature you want to replace. Rename your def to that (assuming you made it into a def) and stick that into the lod file. Can all be done using h3deftool
