by the way, new creature backgrounds:


and with the original ones http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/5981/wbgz.jpg


While the ones for Tower, Conflux and Fortress are decidedly better I prefer the castle hills of the old Castle, Stronghold and Necropolis ones.
The new ones look somewhat bulldozed/flattened out.
Well, nothing to lose sleep over.
The foreground of the new Rampart one looks actually less detailed, somewhat like golf course turf.



All those backgrounds contain town images on "Castle" fort level. Also, those look a bit differentely with units on top of them. Some corrections were made exactly to make unit models look better on top of backgrounds.

Ok, it seems, that a problem of multiple threads is not an easy one, so I created a few more topics. Pixelreports, bugrepots. Maybe custom maps will get a topic as well


May I suggest that these official threads be mentioned in the OP of this thread with links to them? Maybe a thread for wishes/suggestions would be in order, too?

Idea



It'd be nice if you could see the actual number of the current round in the combat log as shown in this picture. Possibly HD mod related, I'm not sure, or if it's even possible.

Idea

Thx actually, I should really do this!
And no, I don't like thread for wishes. We usually create such only to drag out that kind of flood from more useful topics. Since there is no such flood here, I hope we won't need it

Hi Koelle, you should write your bug/crash reports in the specific thread.

Oh, and I think it's very useful for the HotA team to attach the crash log.

I love HOTA.  It is the best (if not the only) well made HOMM mod.  Are you still planning on making Cathedral and Kronverk, (especially Cathedral)?  Even though I don't think it's that interesting a concept, It's sort of just an evil Castle, but I love it.  I also like Kronverk, but I don't think there's enough variety within the units.  They are mostly just dwarves.
Thank you.

BUG in hota map editor:

I cannot place specific heroes in towns, just random heroes. Can it be fixed?





Question:

Do i have to download the hota updates by myself or is this done automatically?

And where is the object editor? i want to place water terrain on land.

@Erathianer

Bugs should be posted in this thread:

Thread

However, when you want to add a specific visiting hero, you first select the class, then the 'edit' button will be clickable in the previous town menu screen. You can select a specific hero there. Maybe this was the issue?

If you download ERA II and extract it there's a tool folder with the Object Editor and other tools. Otherwise, you could probably google a separate download.

HotA will update itself, yes, otherwise check the settings with 'HotA_launcher.exe'.

Nik, you should consider adding a small Q&A to the OP, stuff like Cathedral & Kronverk town (for example) have been asked a lot of time already...

ok i will post it in the other thread, but no it is not possible like i said. try to place lets say Vokial in a town, it switches everytime to a random hero, just after you select the class! this feature is very important for builing maps, i would be glad when it will be fixed soon.


but is there no other way to place water objects on land like in sod editor?? it looks for me like era II is sometihng like wog mod and i dont want wog to be installed, just hota.

Anyone know the design idea behind the template 'Worlds at War'? It's one of the templates in available in 'default'. The weird thing is, there's no guards in any of the start zones with this template. Unguarded Pandora's boxes and other rare artifacts. Maybe it shouldn't be part of the 'default' templates because it's so fundamentally different. Maybe it's just me, but what you think?

First thx Hota team for this great mod i really like it and now i have 5 different types of heroes 3 thx to you (heroes chronicles , heroes 3 Wog ,heroes 3 hota , heroes 3 VCMI ,heroes 3 Hol. i also have the other heroes games (heroes 4,5,6 all complete) but i cant get enough of hota right now with gigantic maps ), and second i have some town\creatures ideas (unfortunelly i'm no good at modding ), about 28 new town each with different creatures from heroes 3 and i dont know were to put them :/ . maybe they will interest anybody and actually make some of them . If anybody is interested in making any of those town let me know here which town so i can send you pics for the creatures,info (abilities, ,etc.) . These ideeas come from wiki,heroes 4,5,6 ,disciples 2, my head . Enjoy.

As Greg Fulton stated: Believe me when I tell you we have thought of most every good and bad idea for a town type. This doesn't mean I won't listen to any email suggestions. However, the Muppet town is a definite 'no'.

We need DEFs not ideas.
Nobody will do these towns, only YOU can create or compile them.
PS Go to banks of creatures like this
http://www.wog.acidcave.net/bank_stworow.html
You can find full lineups for some your town ideas I think. And than mod them to VCMI.
HOTA is not moddable, it's  a bad idea to post this here.

well as i said i'm new here you could put a link as to were to put them ,and i did say that i'm no good at all at modding / creating them on my own :/ (PS: i'm romanian and i only speak my language and english , the link you posted sends me to a new language for me ). i just want to put them somewere that can be seen and anybody can look  and maybe like "hey i like that town and those creatures i'm gonna make it " , or so :/ . and besides even if i would start learning to mod / make stuffs like that i really cant :/ between my work( i work in hospital -ALOT  of stress) and my house chores  i have little time for other things that i must organize so i can enjoy them :/ .
