How about NPC vocals, can we extract them to the hard drive and have mm6 play them in mp3 format sorta like World of Xeen does?

MM4-5 has two additional characters, so the engine might need to be modified...

Vocals are easy, they can already be extracted, especially from the CD version. As for more players, that would be a little difficult, yes, but in MM8 you have 5, so only one is missing.

If someone will dare to remake WoX on MM6-8 engine, he probably remove Fire, Mind, etc schools and include Arcane, Clerical, and Druidical schools. So it's not to be the probem.
Also, skills are not ranked in WoX.

Still using the Engine of MM6-8 we could have a Graphical User Interface for all spells in Might and Magic 3-5 and Import Vocals and music from the Original World of Xeen CD-Rom game to play etc

Plus Paper-Dolls for all 24 characters available in Might and Magic 3-5 (Don't know the actual characters available for Might and Magic 3)

We could just list spells in alphabetical order or divide Attack, Support, Healing and Miscellaneous between Arcane, Clerical, and Druidism Spells.

I don't think adding 2 more characters would be possible. Changing spells, while possible, may require a lot of work. Adding new screens would require additional researh. Isn't it better to make a new game than remake old ones anyway?
My patches: MM6 MM7 MM8. MMExtension. Tools. Also, I love Knytt Stories and Knytt Underground. I'm also known as sergroj.

So you can't find the engine that runs Might and Magic 6-8?

In order to modify it to run Might and Magic 3-5?
