Looks good, but would look even better on mounts.

First I wanted mounts but the result was looking awful. The only one I could was the druid. Mostly because of the flag, which requires to modify 500 frames to move it elsewhere. If use mounts, the heros can not be different (too small) and they all looks same. I wanted an unique layout for each one.

Wow, weird idea, but I might try it...
It would be quite good, but flags with colors just make it looking bad...

I took some freedom. The druid is known to have special powers on the wild beasts so I wanted him to show that. Same for the fortress witch, she IS a witch now. The wizard has a crystal ball and the alchemist a magic book, the ranger a bow etc. Giving same layouts for all heroes would reduce them to the same thing that was when on horse. Of course they look perfect on horse, but we already know that. The sounds were modified to suit a walker and ALL terrains types. I still did not find what triggers Horse20 up to Horse30.wav. so I left them as they were. If someone can tell me I will modify them as well.

At first I was a bit worried about the flag and I tried different angles to "hide" it the best. In game the flag is not noticeable, because I gave them many "stop" angles. I think they look ok, if not I would not invest in it the 40+ hours I spent.

I'll check them later, but I have a question:
Does heroes on battlefield are still mounted on horse?

Yes, I could not find this bmp to change. And even if I find it one day (scrolled them all but no success) it will be impossible to change it for each hero layout, so better leave it as it is. The game is not open to many modding possibilities as it is. Maybe with VCMI done...

Thanks, I just found them. Strange that I was thinking they are bmp. and could not find. A proof that I never look at the hero. I will change them all. Link delayed.

Songfx, imageshack is stable for all users except chinese. Photobucket expires in no time. I could upload them to photobucket for chinese users only (for their forums only), give me a few time.

BTW: The cleric would benefit from some more colors. Give him some blue/violet plus some few red accents, if possible.

And someone will tell that the warlock is too red, the battlemage chick too naked and so on. Seriously, my sprites can't be everyone's taste, they are only a proof that a mapmaker can create his own sprites, and thats the goal, not people playing with mines. I have in mind a map on Stargate Atlantis and the necro I used here could be a great Wraith hero. In custom scenarios heroes on horses are not always the best choice.

Surprise. Castle Males (both clerics and knights) use knights defs and all females use cleric defs in battle. Same for all races. That complicates the task, as a knight looking female (map) will change completely layout in battle...
