Stimmt, das hatte ich falsch in Erinnerung, die kamen mit Patch 1.5. ... aber ohne upgrade

Also zum Einen habe die die neutralen Kreaturen (auch aus H6 -> Kappa, den gibts in H7 bislang ja gar nicht) genommen und aufrüstbar gemacht !

Dann haben Sie jeder Fraktion 2 Kraturen (+ jeweilige Aufrüstungen) zugeordnet und dort so implementiert, dass man sich wie bislang bei den Champions nun für eine entscheiden muss , also entweder eine alte oder eine neue Behausung in der Stadt baut. Deshalb gibts das bislang nur im Paket.

Aber wer weiß was noch kommt, die sind da grade voll am rödeln ...

Genau, Nr. 5 und Nr.8 sind global !

@Aschrakor
NEIN ! Das ist ein globaler MOD der überall funktioniert, das ist doch der Witz !

Außer das was juppiness geschrieben hat, das sind Maps...

Deshalb habe ich es ja auch nicht gelöscht sondern in den allgemeinen Bereich verschoben...

@Aschrakor
@Avalanche

Dann darf ich eure Aufmerksamkeit mal HIERHIN lenken ?!
Modding ist sehr wohl in gewissen Rahmen möglich...wahrscheinlich wäre es ohne UPLAY noch besser, aber ich finde das sieht sehr vielversprechend aus...

Ja war er... totales Off-Topic wurde in den allgemeinen Bereich verschoben ...

Die Jungs nehmen richtig Fahrt auf und importieren gerade Texturen aus MMHVI und basteln eigene neue :

AcidDragon in der HC :

"We're still working on importing animations from H6, so we'll see if that's possible someday.

in the meantime: good news everyone!

I can now say that the new creatures and White Tigers:
- are now in the map editor
- can be chosen as random stacks (on any map that has random stacks) by the game
- appear alongside of their new faction members in mixed armies (on maps that have mixed armies)

Also Kappa Shoya has its spikes back:

and final Kappa Shoya's stats:

EDIT:
Everybody, check out the Juggernaut (unupgraded) texture Dogtown1 did:"

So können die gerne weiter machen

Moin !

Aus gegebenem Anlass mal ein einen heutigen Beitrag des KI-Programmierers von Limbic (Oakwarrior) aus der Steamcommunity :

Zitat von Limbic_Oak

[...]
I appreciate the kind words. Time. Time is the answer to your question. AI is only one of the topics that I code for and it is the most recent one I started dealing with. I code for general gameplay, scripting, engine, skills and abilities, and additionally I debug for those topics and occasionally others, such as GUI. Currently I am also the only person coding AI. My main topic, however is general gameplay and my secondary topic is skills and abilities (coding, not design). Everything else came later.

Um eine doppelte Diskussion zu vermeiden : Werft doch mal einen Blick HIERHIN ...

@Aschrakor

Vielleicht bringt dich dieses Thema weiter ?
Da beschreibt DaO wie man die zufällige Stadt an die gewählten Helden anpasst... vielleicht klappt das ja genauso mit zufälligen Städten und deren Dwellings ?

Hmm...also ich kann im Editor über 100 Helden auswählen (103) !!
Da ich das zuvor noch nicht gemacht habe : Wieviele waren denn ursprünglich dabei ?
Keine Ahnung ob da jetzt neue dabei sind bzw. wieviel man vor Patch 1.7 auswählen konnte...

Aber jetzt mal ehrlich : Reichen 103 verschiedene Helden nicht für den Anfang ?

Moin !

Ich glaube du meinst die neuen Helden der Bonus Kampagne "The Lost Tales Of Axeoth" ?!

Zitat von Ubi

Apart from the brand new maps and storylines, the Lost Tales of Axeoth will feature new content that users will be able to freely integrate into their own maps:

• 68 new Hall Heroes, most of them based on the original art of Heroes III and IV’s portrait artist, George Almond.

• 8 new Story Heroes, including main characters Genevieve Seymour, Pherlon and Dogwoggle, as well as their friends and foes.

• Several Heroes IV music tracks used under license from Rob King and Paul Anthony Romero, to recreate Axeoth’s enchanted atmosphere.

• New (and old) artefacts.

• And of course… surprises!

Alles anzeigen

Also den "free content" gibt es ja jetzt seit Patch 1.8 vollständig.

Ich habe die neue Kampagne bislang nur ca. 5 Minuten angetestet, da waren zum einen die neue Hauptheldin Genevieve Seymour dabei und in der "Wiki" auch mehrere neue Helden zu sehen. Habe die jetzt aber nicht durchgezählt.

@Aschrakor

Aus aktuellem Anlass wollte ich hier noch mal meinen Senf zugeben. Mir ist letzte Woche mein 7 Jahre alter Laptop abgeraucht und dank Steuerrückzahlung war ein neuer drin. Da ich nicht alleine den Haushalt verwalte, war das Budget begrenzt, ein fettes Gamingnotebook für mehr als 950€ also nicht drin.

Geworden ist es ein Acer Aspire V17 Nitro (VN7-792G-55SF)

Intel i5-6300HQ

NVIDIA GeForce 945M mit 2GB VRAM
8 GB DDR4 Memory
8GB SSD + 1000GB Hybrid HD
17 Zoll Diagonale

... und was soll ich sagen ? H7 läuft flüssig auf höchsten Einstellungen !! (Trotz der "mittelmäßigen" Grafikkarte)

Moin !

Es gibt einen neuen Global-Mod von "Acid Dragon" von acidcave.net. :

Zitat von Acid Dragon

What is it?

AC Mod (Alternative Creatures Mod) is an unofficial and global (map independent) gameplay mod for Heroes VII. Its goal is to align each faction with two more alternative creatures, which until now were neutral, and allow them to be recruitable in towns.
Alternative creatures have no upgrades (with the exception of Griffins), but in general they are stronger than unupgraded standard creatures of their
factions and sometimes they are even stronger than the upgraded ones. In exchange for them "being better", their special abilities and/or higher
growth, their dwellings are often more expensive.

What creatures?

Haven:
Dire Wolf or Griffin

Cavalier or LightElemental
Griffins deal less damage than the Wolves, but are faster and can fly, which gives them a tactical edge - especially during sieges. They also have higher base growth.Light Elementals (also known as Blazing Glories) are better than Cavaliers and Cuirassiers almost in every aspect - if you can afford their demand for resources.

Academy:
Golem or ShantiriGolem

Rakshasa or AirElemental
Shantiri Golems are a different version of Sandstone Golems. They have less defense and deal somewhat less damage, but they have a stronger attack, more initiative and an extra ability. Aside from that they also have a higher growth.
Air Elementals are Academy's tactical option. They lack Rakshasas' no retaliation ability, but instead they have a huge initiative and a far movement range, which often allows them to attack in the very first round and lets the hero cast the first spell. And instead of a sweep attack they can fly and return to their starting position after attacking.

Necropolis:
Lamasu or Juggernaut
Vampire or Lilim
Juggernauts are an offensive alternative to Lamasus. Thanks to their charge ability they deal more damage, they are faster and have a higher growth, but they also have a lower defense and a lot less hit points. There are more of them, but they will also die more often.
Lilim stats are somewhere between Vampires and Vampire Lords. In theory they deal less damage, but they have a ranged attack and an area blast, which greatly improves their efficiency. If your army already has a strong hand-to-hand attack then Necropolis may make use of a second shooter.
Note: In this mod Lilim deal increased damage (from 12-15 to 15-22) and have a higher cost (from 1280 to 1700 gold).

Stronghold:
Centaur or Mermaid

BasiliskRider or Efreet

Mermaids are a defensive option. They have less attack and deal slightly less damage then Centaur Marauders, but have a higher defense and more hit points. Also instead of tactical maneuvers they can attack with an area blast which may multiply their damage.
Efreeti deal less damage than Basilisk Lancers, but compensate with more attack and hit points. They are also faster and can fly, which makes them especially useful during sieges.

Sylvan:
BladeDancer or WhiteTiger
MoonDoe or EarthElemental
White Tigers' stats place them between Blade Dancers and Masters. However they deal more damage and can run further in exchange for a higher price. Tactically they exchange Blade Masters' area attack for a preemptive strike.
Earth Elementals are a "tank" option. In exchange for a lot less initiative, movement and attack we gain a huge amount of hit points, even 50% more damage and a higher defense. All this however costs a lot more and requires a steady flow of Shadowsteel.
Note: In this mod Earth Elementals have fewer hit points (from 230 to 200).

Dungeon:
Assassin or ShadowPanthe
rMinotaur or DarknessElemental
12 Shadow Panthers will deal more-or-less the same amount of damage as 20 Shades. A Panther squad will, however, have an advantage in almost every other stat. Then again, they will not have a chance to deal additional damage like Assassins and Shades do.
Darkness Elementals are somewhat similar to Minotaur Guards - same attack, defense, damage, hit points and no retaliation ability. The difference is that instead of a preemptive strike they can fly, are faster and move further. Although - unlike Minotaurs - they don't have to be upgraded, they have a significantly higher resource cost.

Why Demons in Necropolis?

Because Heroes 4. Also - there are no additional undead creatures in the game.

Why Efreeti in Stronghold?

Becauseonly they were left. Besides, they are something of a flawed wizardexperiment with chaos magic - just like Goblins and Cyclopes.

Can I uninstall the mod if I don't like it?

Yes,the mod doesn't overwrite any game files. It can be uninstalled through Windows Control Panel (Programs and functions -> Might & Magic Heroes VII - Uninstall Alternative Creatures)

Does it contain new buildings?

Technically yes, graphically no. The mod uses existing building graphics with ifferent names (alike some official campaign maps). If anyone feels like creating new building graphics or modify existing ones then please shout out loud. You will, however, see new positions in the town trees -
new building names with their own costs.

Which languages are supported?

English and Polish. I can help you translate the mod to your language - contact me.

Who did this?

I did, Acid Dragon. Contact: PM (for Acid Cave members), acidcave@o2.pl
