Playing MP games with
I just checked into elrath.com (one of the "modding" pages for H5....
some of the mod change the stat of some creatures "big" time f.eks. this one.... :
http://elrath.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=233
others just "tune" the layout.... and don't interfear with dmg. and other things who might be very unfear for those who don't have the mod installed....
My question are... :
can players @ ToH play with "Mods" (personally I just installed the "combat mod.... http://elrath.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=113 the one who adds a "wait" button..)
some of the mods just change the look of heroes and stuff others change starting skills and so on....
the last changes will be unfair for the other players of the map...
what do you guys/girls think??

Obviously any mod that gives a player an advantage over his opponent is considered cheating, and therefore penalized in ToH. Of course, if both sides are using the same mod and agree, its a different story.

Can you play a multiplayer game with the mod?
I thought both players needed the same mod for it to work

I'm not sure..... But I'll try with the wait button mod....

It's not the way the game suppose to be at least not the "combat boost one" !!

Changes the amount description displayed when you hover over creatures and adds guide numbers to how many creatures there are.
(basically if u keep having to check that few is 1-4 ,several is 5-9 ect u can use this it writes that info in stack info)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
This version adds buttons for Wait, Load and Save functions for use during combat on the jogdial.

Now i've just found it is possible to change combat speed which is soooo slow in multi game and i'm currently working on making a speed mode if anyone wanna know how to change speed check this link
http://heroescommunity.com/viewthread.php3?TID=18902
As you can see these mods only change the text and don't interfear with actual game settings so i think these mods are great and recommend anyone who sees something he thinks is helpfull to use that mod.

Actually I asked Ubi representives about the modding and they replied that they will encounrage, even promote modding (with special mod sites), but are not really fond of that in MP. I think (but not sure) that you can even play a modded game in MP (that is connect to server). I don't use any mod, I cannot guarantee you can't connect with a modded one.
