    Aktuelle Antwort aus der Steamcommunity von dem (einzigen) AI-Programmierer :


    As always, thanks for your observations :)


    There have already been a number of fixes on our part in our internal repo for some critical issues the AI has, such as not scouting/exploring areas properly (in the current version they are severely hindered by this, especially in maps that have underground), mis-scoring some adventure map stuff and also getting stuck in some cases. These fixes will be part of an upcoming patch (don't know yet if it'll be sooner than later bc it needs to pass through testing). And there are more tweaks in the works. We're investigating some weird behaviour in combat (for example, the return of the old move-between-two-tiles-and-do-nothing) and will be fixing that as a priority for now. We will also be looking into some more context-based AI scoring, such as neutral armies without a hero being more attrition-oriented than win-oriented.

    @Aschrakor
    Die von dir erwähnten "Features" (KI, Simturns) sind Bestandteil von Patch 2.0 und demnach für alle kostenlos erhältlich !!
    Das Add-On (kostenpflichtig) enthält NUR die Zwerge und hat entsprechend auch keine anderen Vorzüge gegenüber der normalen Spielversion 2.0
    Ob man dafür jetzt ca. 30 € ausgeben will oder wartet bis man die Zwerge für weniger Geld bekommt ist natürlich jedem selbst überlassen...

    @Aschrakor
    Hast du das selbst getestet und herausgefunden, dass die KI cheatet ? Gibts dazu eine offizielle Aussage (die mir entgangen ist) ?? Oder hast du das nur aufgeschnappt und wiedergegeben ?
    Man könnte deinem Beitrag nämlich entnehmen, dass es ein Fakt ist, über den du dich so aufregst... dabei ist das so weit ich weiss überhaupt nicht belegt !!


    Wenn du den Entwicklern unterstellst, dass die KI cheatet, belege das bitte wenigstens mit einer Quelle !!


    Und Schluss mit den Steaks... !!


    Gruß Eicke

    Moin !


    Leider muss man ein paar Handgriffe durchführen, dann klappt es. Kann sein, dass man nochmal rausgehen bzw. neu starten muss :


    Im Steam-Ordner zu folgendem Ordner gehen:
    C:\Games\Steam\SteamApps\common\Might & Magic Heroes VII\MMH7Game\Config
    (bei anderen Versionen entsprechend)


    Dort die "DefaultGame.txt" öffnen (z.B. mit Notepad). Es gibt da gegen Ende der Datei den Eintrag:


    [MMH7Game.H7RndSkillManager]
    mFullRndSkills=false
    mNumOfferAbilites = 2
    mNumOfferSkills = 3


    Setzt man "false" auf "true" kann man auch in der Kampagne zufällig skillen. Mit den anderen beiden Optionen kann man dann sogar einstellen, wie viele Abilties uns Skills jeweils angeboten werden.

    von Limbic-Heart aus der Steamcommunity :

    You know if it's the Uplay version or Steam version depending on what platform you bought the addon on..If you bought it through the Steam store, in theory, it's working.
    I believe there is a chance that if you own a vanilla Uplay version of the game, but a Steam version of the Addon it might not play. However, if that is the case, it will work tomorrow when the Uplay version is activated.



    If you're experiencing something completely different, like you only ever bought the game on Steam. I will need more info.


    Ist ja auch nur eine mögliche Fehlerquelle, scheint ja bei anderen reibungslos zu funktionieren ...

    @juppiness
    - Hast du sowohl das ursprüngliche H7 als auch das Add-On über Steam gekauft ? Oder ursprünglich über Uplay und das Add-On über Steam ? Es muss entweder beides über Steam oder beides über UPLAY gekauft sein, sonst funktioniert es nicht ...
    - Der MOD ist vielleicht tatsächlich nicht kompatibel mit Version 2.0, aber ob das was mit der Kampagne zu tun hat ?

    Geht das mit der Ungeduld heute schon wieder los ??? Seit wann werden den Patches vormittags verteilt ????
    Jetzt wartet doch einfach mal ab, gestern kam das doch auch erst nachmittags irgendwann zwischen 15-16 Uhr :rolleyes:


    @Cliarc
    Das neue Skillsystem gilt ausschließlich bei den Zufallsskills und ist definitiv bei allen dabei.
    Und die neutralen Kreaturen gibt es nicht nur im Add-On sondern auch im Patch 2.0 (entsprechend sind sie dort auch schon mit Screenshots erwähnt)

    Hm...
    ... habe gerade zweimal eine kleine (75x75) Karte generiert (alle Einstellungen belassen), das Laden hat ca. ne Minute gedauert ...funktioniert perfekt
    ... probiere jetzt mal mittlere und große Karten ...
    ... also mittlere Karte (128x128) mit Untergrund dauert ungefähr 3 Minuten und funktioniert super !


    Nachtrag 20:40 Uhr :
    ... mittlere Karte (200x200) mit Untergrund klappt reibungslos ebenfalls in drei Minuten !!
    ... große Karte (300x300) mit Untergrund klappt reibungslos in vier Minuten !!


    -> immer mit nur 2 Spielern !!


    Fazit : BESTES Feature ever !! unendliche Wiederspielbarkeit :thumbup:
