Open Heroes 3 Engine

Goodmorning guys!

Yesterday evening I found this interesting project - an Open Source Heroes 3 engine.

Download + Video here.

I haven't looked at the code yet I still need to get Qt and see how can I install it.

It makes me seriously think what can be achieved with this. Maybe HD remake for Heroes 3 Complete / WoG / HotA? I mean, it requires to already have Heroes 3 installed in your PC so every further development from this should be pretty legal.

Give it a look guys it seems like a great opportunity.

This is exactly same type of project as VCMI, just abandoned and it is very primitive, like vcmi 0.2... or whatever version that allowed browsing map with objects

What is interesting in using Qt? VCMI uses Qt for launcher, for game itself it uses SDL, which is more suited for that kind of software.

Also, 2017 change contains.... readme update. Game code itself is unupdated for 2 years.
