You have to use another def which contains all the creature's avatars... I don't recall its name. Sorry.

For the last time, all the portraits are in "TWCRPORT.DEF", and "CPRSMALL.DEF".
You must open the def with "DefPreview.exe", or other tools like that. Then extract all the portraits to a new folder. The, edit the portraits as much as you want.
After that, open "DefTool.exe", then you have to pack the def, insert all the portraits there. Then you must import the 2 defs to "H3Sprite.lod". And that's it .
It is complicated, there's no good reason to do it for 1 creature only, better to replace all the portraits once.

To change names, extract ZCRTRAITS.TXT file from h3bitmap.lod. There's all the names of all creatures in WoG. Then you just have to place the modded text file to /data folder, you do not have to add text files to the lods to make them work, only in /data . But you will need a special tool to edit the text files, to make them work correctly. Notepad gives sometimes errors, and the text files wont work, you'll need TXTedit.exe.
The commander artifacts is a *.wog file, right? You need to place it in your /UPDATE folder located in your heroes 3 folder. Then you have to change your system language to english, like you did, when you installed WoG. Then you just have to run H3wUpd.exe.
