Well thats a good question. No wonder if they screw it up and make the previous save files and maps uncompatible with the new expansion. But we can always hope it will work. I dont quite know about your situation in detail, but if I were you I would finish my map...if you have spare time that is, I guess college is a thing you should focus strictly on since Im norwegian and heard rumors that college in the states are very difficult...correct me if im wrong :)

once you install the expansion, you will have two versions of the map editor a HOMM V one, and a HOF one with all the dwarf/snow objects.

you can open a map made with regular HOMM V with the HOF editor.

once you do that, your HOMM V map is converted into a HOF map and cannot be opened again with the old editor.
and i think it can only be played with HOF after that.

so you have to decide which version you want the map to be playable in.
that should be how it all goes....or at least what happened to me.
