Good evening
your mod look really amazing and i could even say one of the most brilliant idea which became real i ever met about this game but
I got several problems i didn't find any ways to solve them.
Indeed i installed and changed the different WOG options 7 times and every times, my game works but i have 3 times the same error message about goryniches, diamond golems and some WOG creatures like that even if i have turned on or off the options you spoke about. So despite of this, the ingame works pretty fine but i found another thing getting me crazy. From the time i installed hero of light version 3.0 for the era wog i have. when i try to launch with the mod on the map editor, there is a message error and ''map editor stopped to function....''
Well, i hope you have some idea about that problem of mine in order to solve them because i would really like to play with this mod and use it properly even on new map i would create with.
Thanks to all, keep up the good work, your mod is really astonshing and give to my mind a new life breath to WOG. Good evening.

@Avenger
I don't know about the message you're refering. In my experience wog crashes now and then (even without my mod) so I guess it is the price to pay in order to enjoy the new aspects and possibilities of WOG. As for the map editor, they are right you have to edit the txt (just add another line at the bottom so that the editor may work with it).
On June 7th I will release HoLv3.1 and I will also post a standalone version (it will be about 500 mb but you will be able to have both wog and Hol this way) that surely works (on my system that is). So I suggest you wait a little and download the new version.

When I try to install it, it quits on me half-way through. I get some strange error message I can't quite remember.
I'm not at my computer, so I can't tell you specifically what it says. I copied and pasted everything appropriately, but for some reason the installation wouldn't take. I don't think I'm the only one who has had the problem either.
If you have any ideas on what to do, I'd appreciate hearing them.

I've looked at the thread before but none of the suggestions worked for me. I can play Heroes 3 in Vista but I just can't install WOG on a machine that has Vista as the OS for some reason.

@OmegaDestroyer
I don't get why you can't install wog on vista. For me it worked for both Windows vista and 7.
But anyway, on June 7th i will post a standallone version. I guess that will work.
@Avenger
The new sea faction is a neutral faction and will be only available through dwellings.
@Angelito
Thanks for the recognition. HoL v3.1 has a lot of new asspects. I hope you like it too.

I have the same problem and others depending on the random maps. I know others don't have any issues with wog and this mod but these are in fact real scripting errors. I'll take a few screenshots in a few here to show an example. For the time being however this is what I noticed.
I've done a clean install of the game, wog and the mod and each copy does the same thing. With just wog, it's runs just fine however. This and the errors I'm getting on some maps are leading me to believe that are scripting conflicts between wog and this mod.
The most serious problem is this particular creature error message. This prevents you from loading the game saves 95% of the time if not 99%. If you try to reload the game it'll crash to the desktop. I'll take a screenshot of this error message as well when it happens. The random map I'm on now doesn't crash but gives me severe ERM errors.
Editing the towntype.txt file doesn't help with any of the errors. I'm not sure why it was even suggested. I've also played around with wog settings to no avail. The default settings does the same thing.
In the game I've noticed the Arabalest sometimes does have the range penalty even though they shouldn't. My guess is some of the errors are affecting the script some way or another. I need to play more with the HOL mod to see if here are more issues but have only played two random maps so far.
If I find anything I'll post here but I doubt it as I'm not familiar with the scripts nor intend to read through them  I can but I just wanna play the game, not make mods for it....yet.
Setting up virtual XP-SP3 and Win7-SP1/64 to test the game now. I'm running it on Win7-SP1/64 but will test in virtual for screenshots and such.

Yeah, these are exactly the problems I have with this mod, that with the arbalests I don't know, but the other problems are exactly like mine. I'm playing some of the normal Single Scenarios from SoD.
TheOne, with what copy of HOMM are you playing: SoD or Complete?
Because I'm playing with complete and sometimes there are some problems with Wog-Mods and the Complete Edition.

Alright, here are some screenshots. This is with WOG 3.58f and HOL at default settings on WindowsXP-SP3. Upon start of a XL random map. Here is the sequence.
You get error-0 first follow by error-1, error-0 follow by error-2, error-0 follow by error-2. Yes, the last two are exact same errors and are different instances as the message screen is reloaded.
When you try to reload the same game save from in game menu (not main menu) then you get this error and the crashes to desktop, killing itself in the process.
This is the typical error.
Here are errors from my other XL random maps. Well, this sucks. The same game saves does not give me the errors I get in Win7-SP1/64 and I haven't been able to reproduce them. Anyhow, here is one of the message of several. Error-0 is always present.
Again, my guess is the HOL mod is screwing with the WOG mod and that's why we're getting these errors. The game with WOG alone doesn't present any of these errors (verified again just now).Maybe some of the more knowledgeable members here can help.
Edit: copy the web links for the photos if you don't see them. I can't.

I have the complete version of the game. The original in CD and the one from Gog. Both are the same in terms of error.
Edit: If you don't need the WOG features in the scenarios you can turn it off and not get the errors. The errors are because of WOG and HOL conflicting. I've tested this to some extent including random maps and didn't encounter any issues. It shouldn't as it would just be the regular game.

Well, Hero of light has said to me that the first errors doesn't harm the mod or anything, but that loading crash is really anoying! Hope with next version when it's somehow stand-alone this crash win't happen anymore.

The load crash is WOG but it's crashing because of the HOL mod. My guess is that with some of the new additions, the new Heroes in this case, WOG seems unable to process the data and crashes.
So now with HOL this error and the ballista error are the two hard crashes for the game

You probably have done something wrong during installation, because for most people there are no problems with HoL mod (for example I have some errors only during loading map, but as u said they dont affect the game) Also editing towns.txt is solution if map editor doesn't work so it doesn't have anything to do with ur error.
