I would hope AI is a bigger priority IMO, because if you don't have a good AI (no, cheating AI isn't "good" AI), you can't really play the game, and if you can't play the game then it's all for naught.

I looked at a few pages of modding for the VCMI wiki and it all looks remarkably easy to understand and mod. I'm decently fluent in C++ so I reckon I could download the HOTA port and just find the files that contain any changes I don't want and remove or edit them. That is, if the mods available to download contain the actual mod files in text and not a built binary.

Yeah, mods contain mod files in text. Knowledge of C++ is not needed at all for modding. Though with more C++ programmers VCMI could grow faster and we never have enough contributors.

for example: increase the growth of all units in a given city, increase the hero's attack and defense, thanks to the artifact add to the hero a certain creature when the artifact is found

To increase growth check list of bonuses and vcmi config files to find out how it looks like for similar artifacts. Use separate command for every creature's level. I don't know how far creatures' artifacts are supported.

Download latest vcmi hota mod and look inside what is needed to be done. New war machine is combination of artifact and creature, so you must prepare two json files.

I have a problem with vcmi today, it does not start the game, it loads the screen choose the map, the city, etc. then it freezes, you have this problem too?

you can then try if this Revisitation of Forgotten Fields works and fix errors if there are any:

I would like to share with you my humble project of new classes and heroes. The graphic .def part I am still using the original files of the game, but as a future step I intend to change this.

For now the focus is on creating heroes with different gameplay dynamics.
Follow the link to the temporary explanation page: http://fior.in/hmm3. The material is in github for anyone who wants to test.

I am waiting for feedback from you.

Hello. Is it possible to change "User data directory" for VCMI? And do you have any plans to add in VCMI Launcher cirillic character support?

So there is a group of us upgrading and restoring old and unfinished town screens. We've churned out quite a few towns already but have not released them yet. One of the issues is balance and ideas for the heroes and creatures. If you want to make heroes we've got quite a few towns with heroes already in them some with bios and without and most have some made up class names to kind of fit the role. If you want to make heroes for those we could always use the help!

I'm a programmer, but started testing vcmi mods few days ago. Played Heroes for 15 years at least, so i can say "i really like this thing!".

I downloaded Salamandre '.def's and a few other packs to start building new creatures. For now i have 13 already made (stats, skills) and working with VCMI. 26 mores waiting for stats and skills. Two days more i guess, then i back making new heroes and polish the already made.

Who's working on what exactly ? I can help, i guess.
