Yes as I told its GREAT TOOL! Fantastic maps! I was shocked too when I was generated picture random map. I told it Sunday. In this istruction is suggestion, map must be blank! NOT! Its better way as I told its picture random generated map. I thank you too johnnycage, you digged this topic. Instruction H4Util is long and I missed it! Absolutly fantastic way! Now we can generate all types of maps. Eg. Isles (H4U cant do it but we can draw isles + ocean picture and ad to map). Its fast generation. In some minuts. Its important. Buliding map during months its hard work. Now we can enjoy full funcionally RMG :-)

^THIS is the essence of Heroes of Might and Magic, encapsulated within 1 small post... a sandbox playground to bring people together in creativity.  Each and every visit to the sandbox entices new stories and lore to emerge spontaneously from our imaginations. Communities of adoring fans like HC are not forged around predetermined roller-campaign-coasters, they're a natural evolution of the family spirit found within this 1 simple post.  Thanks johnny.

I am curious, the screenshots of these maps seem to not have the "square without transitions" problem/effect. Can you confirm this or did you change it manually later?

If they did not have it, why?

You must used road brush. Paint road and remove it. ITS TINTING! No squares! Beware on real road! Dont destroy them.

The same goes if you try out the H4MG tool. It also leaves squares, but can easily be smoothed out using road.

I've made 4 great maps using the H4util, H4 runner, and original Win98 MS Paint program to create them. The MS Paint from 98 is much easier to use with H4 Util than newer versions of MS Paint. The maps are Ancient Empires, Atlantic Empires, Artic Empires and Asiatic Empires. They are loaded maps with lots of stuff and kinda fun to play.
So, you can find them on the Celestial Heavens map page. However, if anyone has these maps, feel free to put them up on Maps4heroes. I don't care about copyright or anything like that. I made these maps without pay, or seeking glory, or fame or whatever. I made them just to kill time here on Earth.
To add even more to this post, if anyone would also like to script these maps, to change the gameplay even more, feel free to do so. I'm all for it. If you do script any map, one thing I ask: Test it, and if it plays good I would like to play it too. Koni, a lurking member at one time, probably wouldn't mind it either. He did all the dialect in the game, and signposts, so I guess that these should be left alone. Other than that, these huge maps have no scripts in them and probably would be interesting if they did.
