Randomizer for H3 SoD made in Python



Hello! I made a simple randomizer for H3 SoD (mostly for fun and not for a serious playing). It changes the monsters in all cities to a new random monsters (excluding neutral creatures). It also changes the alignments of creatures, so for example if creature is moved from Necropolis to Castle, its native terrain is now grass and not dirt! It's also seen as a Castle creature for morale calulation.

It's an alpha version, so it doesn't change heroes' starting armies. Also monsters in creatures dwellings at map will remain the same.

Installation:
1: Unpack and copy files from H3Randomizer folder into your H3 folder
2. Run H3Randomize.exe to randomize creatures in towns
3. Run H3Randomizer.exe and play

Warning! If you want to randomize creatures again, you need to close your game, run H3Randomize.exe again, and then reopen your game (H3Randomizer.exe)

You should add neutral creatures. It will be more fun.

I always wanted Gold golems and upgrade Diamond Golems in a town, but Conflux lost the obvious chance... (they could have even been recruited from "eight dwelling" like Dungeon has creature portal)

I have never played this game before but I would love to play this game. I am getting bored at home. I was busy last few weeks in redesigning my bedroom. I was thinking about painting my website then I found an idea on [url=https://www.easypalletideas.com/bedroom-ideas-with-pallet-walls/]https://www.easypalletideas.com/bedroom-ideas-with-pallet-walls/[/url] link. And after that I made pallet walls in my bathroom.
