Picture to map (HoMM3)
Since the "Unleashed"(WoG) editor doesn't work (see my post in it's thread), perhaps you can suggest me other tools or map editors that have the feature of converting picture into map ?
That is, if you want more maps, of course.

The map file format is known byte by byte by a lot of people nowadays. Turning an image into terrain is quite trivial. If you have any python knowledge you could even use my command-line map editor. A script to accomplish the task has been on my mind since I started the project, but I'm not really motivated / don't really have the time to write one right now.

Nope, it still doesn't, same exact problem as I posted before. Why would it suddenly work if there has been no update or fix ?
*edit*
What a "quality post" of yours, "6starer", haha

No problem. Like I said I above, if there's no demand for new maps, then it's pointless for me to bother either.
Would I learn Python I would more likely use it for Civ4 modding

Well, you show Hota editor then complain about unleashed editor. Do your homework first.

Another "meaningful post" from a "6star", you really prove to be quite an asset for this forum, don't you
I don't complain about HotA editor, since HotA editor works, unlike Unleashed editor, that does not work and produces the errors that I posted in it's thread. I made a screenshot of it, since I was told there to be a button for the conversion.
Here in this thread I ask for some editor/tool to convert picture into a map. Complaints are in thread for Unleashed, since that buggy cr*pware does not work.

Dude.
You installed unleashed editor in Hota folder and your photo you posted shows it. It doesn't work with Hota.
So just say "my bad, I was wrong, I will try to follow instructions this time and get it right".
But no, you continue the nonsense about my "stars", irrelevant. Chill.

No..
I doubt you're a good actor. But I'm sure you don't have spare parts on your brain.. Thus an original part is broken..

No, those are two seperate folders. There's a warning in the launcher for that. Had you actually played the game you would know it, no ?

Where was I wrong ? Wrong in using this forum ? Yes, apparently I was wrong in that, since toxicity gets rewarded here with "red stars".

Those red stars sure fit you well, Russian

Sorry for the off topic but from the recent threads it seemed like the more on point...
Please, can someone point me a template that:
1. it's for SoD/Era and works well for 252x252 maps;
2. each staring area has more then one town;
3. places around the 48 towns limit but respects it;
4. is rich, with a lot of treasure areas;
5. and they can't meet too early.
I've wrote a bunch of templates for HotA but I don't even start to understand what to do with the traditional RMGs...
