Is it possible to display the quest log like this:
"defeat monster at(14,25,0) for someone at (59,78,1)"
"bring 1 angel to seer (11,22,1)"

Sure, it's trivial. I'm hoping to add complex and interactive quest log, like in H5 but with build-in minimap. Though its' quite low-priority feature.
Of course, all suggestions and help with graphics is welcome.

You probably wanted to try [url=http://bugs.vcmi.eu/my_view_page.php]Bugtracker[/url].
But my guess it's about missing ./Data/H3ab_ahd.vid file.
I have a H3ab_ahd.vid, but it's empty

Someone asked for unlimited neutral growth. Here's how it would look:
However, by default 4000 cap is set - it may be necessary in custom scenarios.
Also, later I may report some interesting progress in ERM handling.

Do you really need ERM support? Maybe Lua or some other script engine would be much better.

Even though we're looking forward to see some scripting language extensions, we will still need ERM for compatibility issues. We have lots of masterpieces written in ERM.

Core team guys, Tow & Tow Dragon, have just completed ERM Parser as their university project. However, as for now it has no use as first we need to add basic support for scripts of another language, like Python.
However, dealing with ERM syntax may be beneficial in the future, as some work is already done. Moreover, they improved the ERM creating VERM language, which has extended syntax and capabilities known from classic scripting languages.
Here's the example of new possibilities which are still fully compatible with good (?) old ERM:
Quote:
VERM
; standard verm file, global engine things should be put here
!?PI;
; example 1 --- Hello World
![print ^Hello world!^]
; example 2 --- simple arithmetics
![defun add [x y] [+ x y]]
![print [add 2 3]]
; example 3 --- semantic macros
![defmacro do-n-times [times body]
`[progn
[setq do-counter 0]
[setq do-max ,times]
[do [< do-counter do-max]
[progn
[setq do-counter [+ do-counter 1]]
,body
]
]
]
]
![do-n-times 4 [print ^tekst\n^]]
; example 4 --- conditional expression
![if [> 2 1] [print ^Greater^] [print ^Less^]]
; example 5 --- lambda expressions
![[lambda [x y] [if [> x y] [print ^greater^] [print ^less^]]] 2 3]
; example 6 --- resursion
![defun factorial [n]
[if [= n 0] 1
[* n [factorial [- n 1]]]
]
]
![print [factorial 8]]

This pieces are not portable and compatable with each other. It will be the worst decision to implement ERM. WoG scripts can be easily rewritten in high level language.

Till now, it took several years for people to be comfortable with. Changing to another language will make VCMI only accessible to Berserker, Grayface, and a very few others. You decide.

Trust me, Salamandre, really simple high level language will not be so hard for you as ERM was. I would take Oberon, but in real life limits Python would be nice as well.
// And you forgot about VCMI team programmers.
/// But simple stack language in the style of FORTH does not seem to be a good approach either.

I Strongly suggest that this thread should get stickied because it is only among the most (if not THE most) interesting things going on for the h3 platform. Sure there are others too but they have never any (or very little) progress. Sticky it please. VMCI IS the future of WOG.
About ERM:
I think that is good that they made a interprenter for so its backwards compatible with old scripted maps etc. However Having so many people saying there a so many (faster) options lua and whatnot) available. It be idiotic to BASE it on ERM again. Base it on these new better and faster languages instead so that will be used as standard. Just make sure the (v)ERM interprentor stays to let olderscripted games work too.
EDIT : Another came to mind was that many mapmakers bundle their maps with misc files that should go here and there.. With a new VMCI-mapmaker
that could intergrate all those into map perhaps so uyou end 1 file 1 map with all it needs build into instead of scattered around the installtion, And a new mandatory infobox in the loadscreen if or not to be wogified. The wogifieing seems to be some thing that always has to be known in advance. more to be said on this topic but iŽll leave that for discusion.

It looks like the project got its own life. Here's VCMI running on Android device.
Now the way to go is AI -> multiplayer -> Python scripts, as each of features needs previous one. Only then we can add mods or proper ERM support, however mods are much more important. And maps in the end will build on top of that.
But the best way is to take a little step every day  .
