Hello,
One of the Navigators should produce 1 gem/day because he can extract them from sea/Lakes.
maybe editing Andal specialty and biography accordingly will do good.

Would make sense but cove mostly needs Sulfur and not Gems

I'd have a gunpowder related hero generating sulfur instead to be honest. Would also make sense and be more useful.

Andal is fine, I can't say the same about Leena, Miriam, Elmore and Zilare though...

Whole Cove doesnt need an update... the rest of towns and even more heroes from other towns (secondaries) needs an update...

That thread on HotA's discord made it sound like not even the Wasteland terrain is likely to come on New Year's, which is... disappointing to have to hear second-hand.

Disappointing indeed but it is part and parcel when it comes to free projects like this one. I am sure the wait will be worth it however long it takes.
Hopefully we'll hear something from the team on here soon enough.

Hello guys!
I just downloaded this mod, it's awesome, really well done. But I have one problem with it, the FONT... It uses a different font than Heroes 3 Complete and totally annoys me lol. Could it be changed back to the original Fonts? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you and Good Job on the mod again!

Can be changed easily. All you can do is replace fnt files from h3bitmap.lod to hota.lod.

Sulfur is the resource needed for their lvl 7, and thus should never be a hero specialty. thats a role of thumb.
you can see this across all towns:
1-)Inferno generate sulfur not mercury.
2-)Ice generates Mercury not Gems.
3-)Desert Generate gem not crystals.
4-)Dungeon gererate crystals not sulfur.
I thought this was well known role but oh well.
@phoenix4Ever,
but dont you agree that its better in terms of design?

Some text won't fit into the UI with the old font though.

Thanks, though I changed the name of the h3bitmap to hota.lod and delete hotalod, but the game didn't want to start. Ok, then I just renamed each other, like hota.lod to h3bitmap.lod, and vice versa. The game now crashes on startup

Oh well, maybe I'll just live with this new font type.
How bad would be the not fitting thing be? Text going out of the little textbox? Or just not showing and cutting off at the end of the textbox border?

Text will be cut off IIRC.
You need to extract and insert the font file using a tool called MMArchive. Renaming those files as you did is something entirely different and will always mess up things.

Oh well, if it will be cut off then I'll leave it be... Thanks for the answers!

Hota clearly hasn't been afraid to add hotkeys to make life simple for players adding extra info, could you add a hotkey so we can check a hero army or wandering monster total HP, Gold or Ai/power value?

Kinda takes out the strategy if you know every little thing about your enemy.
You get enough information already.

Fonts
While I have no problem at all waiting for a new version - the existing one already is very, very good -, I am also interested in a convenient option to change back the main font as I like the classic font more. Especially with large resolutions, the new font is not easy to read.
Here the topic is treated as well but as it seems it does not work for campaigns.
Has anyone found a workable solution for all parts of the game (which restores HD mods fonts behavior)?

rule* 
my bro i was not aware but now that you're mentioning it, it makes a lot of sense.
about the HotA news that the update is not coming before the end of the year, well so be it. My bros i don't give a damn eventually it'll show up and that's fine.
As long as it shows up it's chill my bros.

Hey, is this delay confirmed anywhere by someone from the HOTA team? I searched and couldn't find. Can anyone please quote/paste info about it. Thanks.

I went on the Discord server and I couldn't find any news either. Maybe can someone put a screenshot or something?
