ArdonnK said: Is this mod still being worked on? I really want to play it, even if it is unfinished there should be some sort of release of this mod out there, so much work has gone into this and it shouldn't be wasted.
I have, in the meantime, made my own mod that changes all the line ups and more. If I figure out how to upload the thing I'll release a version of it.
It would be quite refreshing to see a new H7 mod (in addition to UCP, H7 Improved and Pointer's Mod Pack).

That sounds interesting. Could you tease some examples?

Hello Lizard. I was wondering, if you don't have other plans for it, could I get access to the materials you(and Galaad I guess)'ve shown here, etc.? Cause I'm into making a mod for HoMM 7 myself and it seems to have some stuff in common with your initial thought(mainly that it doesn't happen in Ashan and I will attempt to make a mod worthy of HoMM 3 success{trying for a total conversion possibly, not a clone, but something that will look like what could have been a candidate of the best in the series}.

So I'm slowly reaching a closing point to my version of the mod. I'm gonna try to get it out by the end of the year if I can. But I'd like to graduate by the end of the year too So who knows.
Currently, I've got a rework of most of the factions. Re-scaled a lot of the creatures. Made upgrades/base versions of a lot of neutral units and added them in most of the line ups. Made a handful of completely new units from in game stuff. Scrapped Fortress for an inferno town. Went with a six tier line up system with unit choices for tiers 4,5, and 6. (Except for a few). Combined H3 fortress into Stronghold.....yeah. Tried to do a h3 type thing with necro cause that one was my favorite. Sylvan has similar choices between H2 and 3 line ups. Haven is the only one i'm not 100% satisfied with.
I've got all the faction's AI playing with the new stuff, so I mostly play against them or with some friends on hotseat to balance test it and find things I either missed or need to tweak. I stream it on twitch when I play Vs the AI if anyone is interested to see it.
I know H7 isn't well liked, but I've enjoyed using it to make my own heroes game. Hope to get around to releasing it soon(ish)!

I think that’s against the forum rules?? You might just have to search H7 on twitch. Can’t imagine there’s a lot to pick from, heh
Edit; Jk, here it is.

Might not have been streaming then? I've got no idea how twitch works. Maybe I can upload something to YouTube.

Too bad LizardWarrior no longer makes a modification for Heroes 7. In this thread, even the images of what has already been done have disappeared. = (Now I have the feeling that I missed or forgot something very important. Because there is a discussion of cool ideas and models, but there are no images and most links do not work. This is unbearable.

Lol, yeah I don't know anything about twitch My bad. I'll update my link.
Sorry for the lack of streams lately. I've been busy updating the mod after consulting with a particularly talented Lizard...
Some great new additions. Split stronghold and H3 fortress into their own towns. I haven't figured out how to change the townscreen, and I don't know if it'll be worth it anyways. And no faction skill for now but I got beastmaster and witch hero classes.
Still on the fence with their line ups since I lack a dragon fly and the basilisk have goblins on them.
Right now Strnghold is:
Centaur
Brute
Wolf
Ogremagi or basilisk rider
Cyclops
Behemoth or Thunderbird
Swamp factions is
Gnoll
Kappa
Lizardman
Gorgon or mermaid
Wyvern
Hydra or Kraken
The kappa is the only thing left that fits from what I can think of. Shoot out any ideas if you have them. I was considering retexturing harpies and letting them stand in as dragon fly replacements.
Edit: LMFAO Didn't know I could make videos and post it. This is the first time I've seen my own twitch page lolol thanks

I know how to change it but believe me it is not woth the sleepless nights and headaches you get from it - cos of the buggy H7 editor
I worked hard for 2 years to mod one new faction with all units, town, skills, classes... and yet I am still encountering random bugs and errors here and there
So I wish you all the best, no crazy editor bugs and mostly: finish and release the mod. Maybe it will encourage me to do the same and finaly finish the campaign maps
PS: I LOVE working with UDK/Unreal Engine/Kismet but I HATE doing it in the buggy way thanks to Ubi

Here are my suggestions, to clean the damn ashan (not even gonna write it with a major letter!) in this holy crusade!
Academy:
*Titans should be alive, not constructs!
*Who needs lions? Bring back the half-naked nagas (either the ones with staff, either the guys)! Also, Medusas from H7 use almost the same model as Nagas from H6. And the beautfiul Naga can also hit you in the head with a club, to take all the heresy out of your head.
*The red dinos should be slaves.
Also, if you want to make Tower great again, there's a model for H3 Tower (3D model) that you could use for this mod. I can texture it if you want.
Haven:
*Name of 7th level should be Angel/Archangel.
*Uhh... What wolves? They should be running free in the wilderness.
Sylvan:
*Upgrade of green dragon has to be Gold Dragon, not the heretic dragon tree.
*Too many fairies. Bring back the centaurs, the dwarves, the good guys. Or just leave the fairies alone.
*No damn deers. Our brave warriors love deer meat, so they have to be replaced. Unicorns would be good.
*Dendroids?
I got tired of writing. I think I'm gonna suggest more later.

I liked the comedic tone and most suggestions of last post :V
However, take into account even in H3 Giants/Titans are suppossed to be constructs really. There are some hints of that, such as their skin tone and mind spell immunity, as well as others in the storyline. The titan's artifacts that increase groth also make indirect reference to giants/titans being animated statues. There is also a complete lack of Titans as an independent "race" in the storyline, so I am 99% sure they are just a sort of construct used by wizards, lorewise.

If only ashan was the only issue of h7, this mod would have been released long ago...

I said it in the sense that Titans ARE alive, not that they aren't constructs (they are constructs with souls and the ability to think, since they can be resurrected). What I meant by "constructs" was the creature trait itself, which says "Titans are not alive blabla..."

Hehe... Buggy editor... (just a part of the problems)
On the same note, my MMH7 editor is currently on the verge of crashing.

@ FirePaladin
I mean, a good bit of what you're asking for is already in the mod
Titans don't look alive in this, unfortunately. But Technically they're 'non-living' in the mod, not a construct. Cabir are in Fortress/Inferno. And Naga are not in the game :]
Archangels is the name. Celestial was dumb, I agree. Wolves are in Stronghold.
Gold Dragons look nothing like the Greenies. Plus the redo of the Emerald Dragons isn't bad. FireBird -> Phoenix is the other Champion choice, so another flier Champion would be bananas. Unicorns are in. The Deer grew on me
Sylvan is
pixie
Bears
Elf
Deer or Druid
Unicorn or Treant
Dragon or Firebird

That's why I said nagas could use medusa model (but this depends if people want a naga with a club. Also, in the ashan lore, medusas were renegade nagas). And Titans could be made to be living, but immune to mind effects, just like in the old good games (but I think they could be made to look alive, with a complete texture redo...).
Also, I couldn't see the redo of the green dragon because none of the images show up for me. I'm relieved that we can eat deer without worrying about not having a tier 6 . Oh, you like deer too?
EDIT: Purple/Orange Butterflies from Dungeon could be replaced by a recolored Red/Ardent Dragon. At least if this wasn't done already.

Tbh I never had a problem with the design of the titans or rakshassa (whatever their called ) So I haven’t thought about it. Medusa kinda needs to stay in dungeon though. Dungeon can’t spare any units rn.
The deer themselves make for a decent tier 3 or 4. They have ghost walk in this, since they’re kinda ‘spirits’, and so they act as Pegasus for that line up. They’re 1x1 now too so they fit better. An option to pick druids instead is always there as well
Black dragons look 10x better. Shadows are unchanged for now. But I had the same idea of retexturing red/ardent dragons before the new blackie.
