@Lure_of_Lilith Hi! Good to see another VCMI fan in the making ^^
A few tips from me:
- Install daily builds. Maybe they'll still lag, but shouldn't as much.
- Animation errors and Fort recruitment are known bugs.
- Report bugs on VCMI Mantis bugtracker.
- VCMI is not a "mod". It's a platform for mods : p

I recommend downloading Beholder's Gaze and Bloodbath mods to make up for some missing animations. Here are the links:
- beholders_gaze.rar
- bloodbath.rar

I compared the spellcasting animations in VCMI and vanilla H3. Hero's casting and spell effect's animations are simultaneous in VCMI and consecutive in the former. I'll report it on the bugtracker. It probably won't be tackled urgently, because cosmetic issues rarely are, but thanks for pointing it out!

Thank you for your response, Ancient Druid. You're a great help.

I already installed the latest Build but I'm still encountering problems with regards to lagging and missing Spellcasting Animations halfway into the game, but I'm pretty sure it's because of that New Preserve Town Mod I just installed, everything was running more smoothly before.

No changelog this time, and depends on what timespan you have in mind. about 80-90% of bugs fixed since VCMI 0.99 is listed on https://bugs.vcmi.eu/changelog_page.php

No major features released yet in this year, in 2018 if I remember correctly VCMI got such features as working multiplayer (but without lobby so far), a bit improved AI, map editor for PC version and enhanced spells modding.

Regarding AI we currently have one developer working exclusively on alternative AI for some time already, but it is not in enough advanced state for release yet.

I hope developers at last will finally add Obstacles refreshing branch. Its an year old and it add modding of obstacles on battlefield, moats while town sieges and adding new battlefields.

I've read, it never happens. These features will break save compatibility, and this is unacceptable.

Yes, but who cares for save compatibility for new releases?

The deal about saves is that saves are used in bug tracker as attachments to reproduce various bugs. If you wanna debate on this, and try to change our opinion please visit VCMI slack.

And no, VCMI does not support HotA 1.5.4 currently. To fully recreate HotA in VCMI 3 things would be needed: 1. multiplayer features, 2. Terrain modding system, 3. Secondary skills modding to make artillery act special way for cannon. Hardcoding special mod behavior for terrains or cannon is unacceptable in good quality codebase that VCMI code strives to be.

I did wonder why breaking save compatibility was unacceptable. Generally, for projects like this, it is an accepted price. But if VCMI uses it to help bugfixing, that helps explain it.

Warmachines and secondary skills modding ( and artillery extension) is already implemented long ago.

Artillery extension that gives +% damage to cannon instead of doubleshoot is not possible right now, am I wrong?

Why not? CREATURE_DAMAGE for basic, adv., expert level +

ADDITIONAL_ATTACK set to 0 (BASE_NUMBER) must work, I think.

And how do you make it work only for cannon and not ballista?

Anyway, that particular thing should be eventually doable with scripting, but terrain modding is more complex feature

You must use limiters for creatures, of cause.

Could you please incorporate original ''gosolo'' console command into VCMI?
(I mean as a cheat code not as console command) TAB -> gosolo

OK it's great video, it's shows how You guys made VCMI trough the years. In my opinion this video should be added to VCMI credits (in shorter form)

But can You explain what happen to creators of this mod? What i mean where are they now? why they leave? I'm just curious

Hi, I've began working on my first mod yesterday which is a Town mod based on [url=http://heroes.thelazy.net/wiki/Neutral_Town]WoG's Neutral Town[/url] and almost every units are incorporated in the town. Is there any documentation/tutorial that could explain me the Town's screen creation? How to fulfill the structure.json or creating the .defs needed to implement the designed buildings?
