Do you mean a Commander or do you mean replacing the "hero on horse" picture on the side of the battle?

The latter isn't really possible (yet) and Commanders can't be 2-hex creatures (Slava told us), but anyway, I would prefer to see this as a regular creature.

Slava cannot add additional heroes on adventure map, right? But it is possible to overwrite the existing ones (for example, change overlords to spider queens)? I remember Bruno simply replaced Heroes 3 graphics with those from Warcraft 2 (for his old mod).

I agree it would be better as a creature, though.

Yes, as far as I know, there's no reason that you couldn't replace any Heroes graphic if you have the correct format, number of frames, etc. and know how to pack it correctly.

thx



what do you think?

@BigJocker
Quote:
k1ng, is it done allready?


no, still magic attacks are missing, but don't worry i'll make them . here;s what i got so far,



EDIT: i don't know why it shows it small



how do you add shadow?

about the other units, Spider Queen is one of them,



i just started its animation .

here's the Night Archer by Dru,



the walking part is missing .

there is also this, the necromancer from M&M,



it can be resized and animated. it'd be a good piece for the patch, but i'm not sure if it is going to make it.

so far so good?

i was thinking to make a full patch that would include all units, and later on send the DEF files of each unit to BigJocker's yahoo group. this way people could get them separetly. if it is ok with BigJocker.

Looks cool, but if I were you I'd use the kind of dark elves used in the Might and Magic series (MM8). Brown skin and white hair.


well, i based it from Age of Wonders, so i thought the color should be based from it as well.

What about the staff? Would she have ranged attack, too?


yea... isn't she supposed to have ranged attack?



anyone who is interested in this patch may participate, support and share their ideas .

Fantastic!

Quote:

This sounds great. I believe we'll have to wait for Forge and Bastion for several more months, until the graphics and testing is done. (Ziel, should we expect a Christmas present? ). In addition, I'm afraid it'll take a year before we get to play 3.59. So it would be really cool if the Dark Elves patch was released in the meantime.

The banner looks nice, although the letters are a bit too blurry...?

Quote:

yea... isn't she supposed to have ranged attack?

Well, yes... In Age of Wonders she has "magic bolts", while in books she is a spellcaster. Actually, I am worried about the additional shooting animation. Is it too much work...? I ask because she could have another kind of attack - "magic strike" (again, it's taken from Age of Wonders, and works like Thunderbird's lightning. Is this option hard-coded, though?

I can help with maps only. It would be good to release a patch with at least one special map (if not a campaign). Any ideas about the story...?

If people will work so "fast" as now then it will be on christmas.... but if htey can do they work a bit faster than it will be done in 1 - 2 months ^^ (if it will changing conflux... if forge have to be a new castle it will take "bit" more time why? beacause now I dont know anything about it (maybe I can add some units but it's time-eating )(Acid, I think that is a trick to do that, much simplier that this what your'e saying )

Wow they all look awesome, but if you want the Spider Queen to suit the rest of the army it might look better if her skin is purple? Something like this:
