Wow...
It's fantabulous.
Put it as the new Inferno or Necropolis commander maybe?

thanks
Do whatever you wish with it (as long as I get credited), I updated my previous post with the download link for the DEF file (it's named so it replaces the efreet sultan, but of course it can be changed).
Now on to the next one...

I might make a more user-friendly .def pack with a portrait and something to change the abilities, have you a name for it?

well it's original name (and how I'm going to call it) is Darkness Efreet (and un-upgraded = Shadow Efreet).
But...um...question: why does the portrait look like this:
When it should look like this (photoshopped):
?
I did set the color table to have the first 48 colors the same as the other portraits have, but...I don't know. Any ideas?

It happens with heroes's portraits too...you have to open the picture with photoshop or paint shop pro and decrease it's colors to 8 bits (256 Colors)...that should do the trick.
Congrats for the creature, just downloaded it

@MP: Strange, I got one working fine:
Send me your .def and I'll make the portrait work.
@Kesnar: Which .def are you talking about, exactly?

Download this and put the .bat file in your Heroes III: WoG Data folder along with the Darkness Efreet def (should be named Cefres.def). You'll know it's the right folder if you see H3Sprite, H3Bitmap and others. Then double-click the .bat file as if you were running a program, and the .def should disappear. If this happens it means that the .def has replaced the old one - now you can run the game along with the new graphics.
If it doesn't work, let me know and I'll tell you another way to make it happen.
I can't do make an installation for the new Commander since I don't have the .def or its name.

@Metalpiss
Did u make shooting frames for the creature?
Otherwise, the game will crash when some guys use it as commander and get the shooting ability.
