I love the idea,but I'm a Heroes 3 modder,not Heroes 4,but I have both games(and all HOMM series).So now will be:
Zombie/Skeleton
Mummy/Ghost
Venom Spawn/Vampire
Dark Champion/Bone Dragon
Venom Spawn will remain?But lvl4 musn't be flyer?And also he can summon ice demons.

If you remove venom spawn, necropolis would be without any shooter.
I know that this mod was already made, but I cannot find it anywhere, so if anyone has it on HDD please upload it.

and an inferno only town?
something like :
level 1 : imp / troglodyte
level 2 : cerberus / gargoyle
level 3 : venom spawn / ice demon
level 4 : devil / and err... megadragon? or frenzied gnasher?
didn't they make a lich? that would fit better than the venom spawn. though, it doesn't seem too much out of place.

Better replace Ice demon with Efreet and put Venom Spawn to Asylum.

1. There will be no Inferno town (no castle graphics, not enough creatures)
2. Lich is a hero class
3. Venom stays in necropolis because it is the only shooter there.

That's some pretty good stuff you got going there man. Eagerly awaits.
Offtopic: Is it me or do the creatures in homm4 all look so childish?

Quote: February 22, 2007 - Today we share a short avi-file. Though it is of moderate quality, you may find it very interesting (Who said "lich"?). Better version with interface in English will appear soon. Watch it in original size and aspect (there is a setting in your videoplayer) for better impression. Remember - this is purely technical demo, don't make hasty conclusions. Download it here.

I don't know if they finished it. if I remember well, it was supposed to be a shooter with a poisonned death cloud.

Well, my mod will be based on Equilibris 3.51 (so it doesn't matter if Eq team will create liches) and there might be other version for pure Heroes IV WOW.

Hey Hellburn here is a list of tools for Homm IV http://www.celestialheavens.com/viewpage.php?id=157 its on celestialheavens.com another good site for the heroes games.
One of the tools is Extractor/Builder with it you can open the h4r files from heroes IV, in the archive there are sounds, graphics and many other stuff, you can copy the main theme sound from heroes4.h4r into x2.h4r (which is the Winds Of War file) and replace it, I am sure the extraction works, haven't tried building h4r files but I think it works too.
Hope this helps can't wait to try the full version

None, at the moment.
I still don't know how to change creatures in dwellings on adventure map.

These guys work miracles in H4 modding.
You could also PM the Equilibris project leader directly (for a quicker response)

How about replace the venoms on necromancers? You can use the graphics of the characters from the campaign

This makes sense. There's a special 'lich king' character model in Winds of War, used exclusively for Baron von Tarkin, which could replace the regular lich hero model, while the latter could replace the venom spawn.

Not that I ever play Heroes 4, but doesn't the Venom Spawn model actually suite the Necropolis line-ups pretty good? Is there even a need to remove it?

In a pure undead necropolis mod that makes sense.

Can't one just give them the Undead ability, and job done? Or is that not possible? *has no clue about H4 modding*
