Taking into account that the WoG/Era options are activated only after starting the game scenario, I can assume that the basic specialties will remain visible in the start menu and cannot be changed.


It can, but needs editing of def files. It is true that erm does not help you in this case.

Sorry for necroing this old thread, but I recently got back into switching hero specialties (and I managed to do it successfully in-run) but I'm not sure how to change the pre-start game specialty icons and text. Which .def file would I have to edit?


You can use this script as a sample:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YaJDIaMM1K17HAlpjJ3RcN7HZX1hv5Tw/view?usp=sharing

Edit it only with SublimeEditor or ERM Editor (not with Notepad).
Put the file in Data/s/ folder of your or any other mod used

ex. C/:Games/Heroes3/Mods/Mephisto/Data/s/heroes.erm

I got the abilities working, what I can't change is the little image you can preview when you right click in Town and Hero selection **pre**-starting a map.

you can check other mods and see how they did it, for example ACM or the example from sandris.
If I remember correctly, you need to look for UN32 and UN44.def

Aaaah, I see, I see. The un32 and un44 .def files also contain the icons *order*, not only all the types.
Thanks a lot! I suppose you wouldn't know where the displayed text is as well?
I don't really care for it much though, the icons should be enough to know what I'm picking!

The text can be changed in HeroSpec.txt
