It has not been changed from balancing reasons but because it was necessary. Even after dozens of hours, I haven't been able to fix the issue with its tooltip. Furthermore, the people who designed the dragon didn't think about the combination of abilities much. The creature which can increase hero's mana by attacking enemy should not hit more targets. This combination caused that both abilities the creature had were broken and nobody did anything to fix that during the whole development!

I read the whole message. It is simple: The string %special cannot appear in the game if it is not in the localization files (they decide what is visible for the player). As this is not included in the new localization files, it is not possible that it would appear in the game. The only solution is that your game does not use the correct files.

It's an amazing feeling if I realise I did even more than the whole studio during the same time

Ok, I've got it. The right writed tooltip is good, but fact that the dragons now are too weak - definitely not. So, maybe we can go to consesus here? I understand you in that the dragons maybe was too strong with splash and mana drain at the same time. Its questionable, but I understand. I propose this: maybe you return old Soul Flaying Breath, but mana will steal only from first target dead creatures. Broken tooltip is better than broken balance in this case for me. What you think?

I prefer to have working things, the issue was this breath was problematic in too many ways. Why do you think it is too weak now? Dragons only became more dangerous target... They are the more defensive option anyway, more suitable for magic heroes.

Which Mana Drain do you mean, the Djinn's one?

Ok, what file should I delete to return Spectral Dragon abilities back?

I realized that I can't del file because its H7CrAbilitiesSpecial.upk. I tried to insert original ability from original copy of the file (through redactor), but when I loaded my savegame, Dragons abilities hasn't changed. Maybe I should start new game to my changes start to work? Otherwise, say me pls how to complete that. (Actually, I didn't followed your instruction absolutely - I firstly copied both files to D:, worked there and then copied result to the game. Maybe this is the problem?...).

P.S. Redactor crashed fast almost every time Never saw so bugged game in my life

No, Spectral Dragons one.

As you see, it is easy to delete any brand new ability without even entering the editor but not to change the existing one.
The change you made should not cause you any problems if you did it correctly. However, make sure you used the correct name and location of the file. It should not be necessary to start a new game. You can see if the game uses your changed ability if you run the editor again: if it shows the one you want.

Ok. I loaded editor again and it showed me packet without changes. I moved all mod files from MyDocuments to game folder to ensure that is just one copy of it on my comp (this file chosing system works absolutely unclear for me, it may take any file regardless of Change file date entry). Then I copied modified H7CrAbilitiesSpecial.upk to game folder again. I launched editor and now it showed my modified data (only one ability A_SoulFlayingBreath instead of two in orig mod file). Then I launched game, loaded my save and... NOTHING (SoulFlayingBreath worked like in UCP 1.0).
Only one thing I did seems suspicious - when I saved the new file editor said that:
"The following packges have references to external packages: H7CrAbilitiesSpecial

External packages won't be found when in a game and all references will be broken. Proceed?"
I chosed "Yes". Maybe this is a problem? But if that, then what to do?..

If you are still gathering bugs - Cabir's ability often doesn't work properly for me; it only heals constructs instead of ressurecting.

In Russian version, when you want to attack something with a Titan, cursor says "Ranged Attack" in English.  

I'm not sure that changing Wasp Swarm damage type to earth is good idea. Earth is the most resisted damage type in the game + the swarm had unusual physical damage type in H5 too.

And I still miss my construct-poisoning shades.

Wasp Swarm should affect all living and only living creatures. That is, not reanimated, elemental, spiritual, or undead. Did miss something?

Hello! How it goes with the new version?

P.S. Necro Dragons Soul Flaying Breath is highly bugged In addition to wrong tooltip, the ability works not every time (first strike usually work normally, but after some units may not be affected by splash).

Antalyan said:

Hi, do you mean the new version of the patch?

---

Antalyan said:

---

I know it, that's why I changed it, this ability was way too problematic

---

NikLan said:

---

And what else it may be? Of course yes.

NikLan said:

Hm, actually you not changed it, you removed it (it works now almost... never). I think removing ability means you should give something instead. But you didn't as I remember, it's not right imho.
P.S. Fixing it by editing properties is impossible I think. Oh, if only we could find a man who can edit scripts... Then in addition the stupid AI could be fixed too. Dreams... )

There is an air spell. Tornado or something. You cast it and the units not only take damage, but are flown out of the screen to land on a different square.

You can screw up entire formations with it. The archers behind ends up on the front and within striking distance of the enemy melee. It is the most powerful spell in the game. I didn't play this version much, but every battle I fought against a good player with that spell, I lost. Every battle I engaged with that spell against a good player, I won.

Did you guys do something about that spell yet?

In the fifth mission of Trial of Fire add-on, for progressing on the map, you must summon boat with the Vessel of the Shalassa spell, which is available for study in the sanctuary of magic. But with the UCP learn the spell is impossible (water Magic banned for dwarfs heroes).
Also, I don't know is this a bug or not. In final battle of second mission enemy hero seems to activate runes more than once.
