I'm pretty sure those animations were in the creature defs all along, HotA just enables them to play all the time. Not sure why they didn't play in the base game.

I love those animations too, and they are definitely enabled by HotA because HD mod by itself won’t show them

I think a lot of people are just frustrated out of love by HOTA. It does so many things right, but nobody is going to agree with every decision. And they take away the ability to get it just right. We wouldn't be talking about it if we didn't care about it's success.
My dream mix includes BTB's Conflux, Logistics, ammo, and Inferno Castle Gate combined with HOTA's Scouting, Estates, Mysticism, Cove and ERAs modding.
Definitely get rid of Interference (Except for the artifacts) and spell research. First time I watched someone play Jebus Cross I was horrified. It turned a measured magic adventure simulator into a quick trip to the casino. It was like someone snorted the Mona Lisa or dumped sugar on a lasagna.
That's one down! Guess I can keep dreaming.

I haven't tried AH3M, but I skimmed through the description and found the modification interesting. By the way, it's hard to get me interested in something. But I haven't tried playing it yet, so I don't know what the game client is like and all that...
I read the whole thread. In general, I can tell you that in the digital world, any kind of secrecy is fundamentally unnatural. It's when you try to limit the speed of progress and people's freedom, causing significant harm for the sake of your own very insignificant personal gains. There is no point in hiding your file handling tools (source code) from players. Why do that? To annoy people, right? Well, force people to create an alternative modding platform that matches your level of quality, and then what? People will waste a lot of time when you could have saved it. That's disrespectful.
HotA is very arrogant. Developers and publishers look down on players, on whom they depend 100%, as if they were trash, and HotA, being in a different environment, looks at them in exactly the same way. I've been hearing this opinion from people for a long time, but I never understood it before, and now I do. I once contacted the team directly with a question that was important to me, one that would have been very easy for them to answer. And what do you think happened? Several people from the team ignored my question completely. I wrote to their server administrator on Steam (he's one of my friends) asking for an answer. He replied, but said he didn't have access to the HotA team. I wonder how the administrator doesn't have access to the team? Don't they communicate with each other? Is it some kind of privilege?
By the way, HotA's quality has noticeably declined since Docent Picolan's death, and updates seem to be coming out more often, which further hints at a decline in quality. HotA had a problem with new creatures having poor animations compared to the original ones. This problem has not disappeared with the release of the Factory and has been transferred to their creatures. In addition, the new sounds of the Cove creatures are simply awful compared to the old ones... I don't understand how this could have been released in this state.
I would like to mention the musical theme of the Factory separately, as it is quite unpleasant. Seriously. Even if we take the frankly weak (although they fit well into the game) themes of the Rampart and Necropolis, they are much better than the music from the Factory. It's so bad that, as a music lover, I would like to just turn off this melody in the city and listen to silence, because it annoys me.
So yes, I am now looking at other modifications with interest  . I also have high hopes for DoR. So feel free to make your own modifications and suggest something if you are confident in your work. And HotA, as it turns out, is evil after all!
