Is this motherfucking Kane from C&C ? Kinda like a tesla pylon shaped in Kane's head.This thread lacks some quick communism.
Beard is too long for it to be the Messiah. My bet is Yuri from RA2.

Ubisoft is really turning into second EA games. They release more and more shitty, unplayable, badly optimized pieces of crap, for which they charge an arm and leg. Fuck them. This dongcock isn't worth even a single penny and is nowhere as good as the original, not to mention WoG.

Oh but the have been. It started with Black Flag, Watch Dogs and now they're running on a full-on shitter mode.

I thought Black Flag was well recieved. People loved the piraty stuff in it. It was Unity that was complete dog shit.
A big set of tools for UbiHD is released. Those who bought UbiHD and were not able to play it normally because it's crappy, now have at least some key H3 features restored.
There is also something for the fans of the vanilla game.

Hello Codex, today I come here with a multirelease as the result of hundreds of hours of reverse engineering and programming (but not writing documentation...) for Heroes of Might and Magic III Complete, HD Mod, HD Edition and demo version. Part of this release was also made possible thanks to heroescommunity and Steam community members greatly assisting the h3mtool project.
This release contains, amongst other things, the following:
h3mconvert 0.1 (Download)
Graphical tool for converting .h3m maps from AB/SoD and WoG formats to RoE (making them compatible with HD Edition)
HDE Mod 1.0 (Download)
HD Edition mod adding many features and fixes. Unlike its predecessor h3mtool, it is integrated directly into the HD Edition launcher after installation and its options appear when starting the game normally. Features:
* HD Edition Random Map Generator integration (if you specify path to a H3 Complete installation, you can get integration of the RMG into HD Edition when you start new game)
* HD Edition Object Re-visit (re-visit objects with space bar like in AB/SoD)
* HD Edition Quick Combat Re-play (press Escape at Quick Combat battle result screen to re-play that battle without Quick Combat)
* HD Edition No Sound Delay (removes delay when e.g entering battles)
* HD Edition Extra Hotkeys (for swapping/moving all artifacts/creatures in hero trade screen)
* HD Edition 60 FPS (increases framerate to 60 FPS)
* HD Edition System Cursor fix (completely replace game's cursor rendering with lag-free system cursor. Ubisoft integrated this fix in Patch 3)
* HD Edition XXL Maps fix. Ability to play non-standard sized maps, e.g XXL 252x252

Snake map for Heroes 3 Complete (also supports HD mod)
h3mdllembed (Download)
Command line tool that embeds DLL files into .h3m in such a manner that they are executed when the map starts. This allows creating maps that change game mechanics that can be run in unmodified Heroes 3 Complete or HD Mod (for those familiar with WC3 custom games, the same concept but for Heroes III can be achieved using this).
h3mdemosign (Download)
Command line tool that signs .h3m maps to be playable in the Heroes III demo
Source code for all of the above and more is available at github:
https://github.com/potmdehex/homm3tools
All AB/SoD pre-converted for HD Edition available here:
