Re: A few questions about Merge possibilities

Thanks :) It's clear and understandable, the problem is mainly - it looks to be pretty damn annoying to set up. One or two chests, no problem, but if I wanted to place a whole bunch of them in various areas, I think I'd rather go scrub the floors. At least currently, maybe one day it will seem appea...

Re: A few questions about Merge possibilities

Oh, that sounds like a big PITA, not gonna lie. I've wondered about the idea of making the 3 games actually play together in a more linearily progressive way as if it was 1 game with a lot more areas and more room for growth and upgrades, but while playing with some tables can be quite zen and relax...

A few questions about Merge possibilities

I wonder about a few things related to editing/expanding on the Merge. I've no idea what's possible and what isn't, so, could you tell me if: 1. It's possible to add new items together with new graphical asset - for instance, new quest items that do not reuse existing picture files? 2. It's possible...

Re: MMExtension v2.2 + MMEditor v2.1 Level Editor [June 4, 2019]

I wanted to fix the textures in my oold mod's files, and I found out the tilesets got jumbled. Which would be easy to fix (unless it broke something else), only I can't seem to change 1 of the 6:

Is there a reason for this?

Re: Might and Magic 6, 7, 8 merge based on mm8 engine. [upd. 03.06.2021]

Would probably be best to just unify it across all 3 games. Same threshold for guard hostility, same + for quests, - for crimes, temple costs. No?

Re: Might and Magic 6, 7, 8 merge based on mm8 engine. [upd. 03.06.2021]

That's irrelevant because guards can be hostile in Enroth only. (Enabling this feature automatically enables global reputation in Base Merge. I tried to get rid of this but the work isn't finished.) On the other hand reputation daily reduction by 1% with minimum 1 won't be as good for 50 as it is f...

Re: For Merge: Chinese Mod MM7 Assets (bitmaps & sprites)

My bad, didn't change the default permissions. Should be accessible now. And I'm afraid it does not, it doesn't really have anything to do with Chinese MMO games and similar, it retextures the world - a lot of buildings, ground textures, and it has new sprites for trees/pedestals/some torches, stuff...

Re: MMExtension v2.2 + MMEditor v2.1 Level Editor [June 4, 2019]

I have added/edited some files, but they're not guilty. Just tried it on a fresh install copy and only copied in the Merge files. Alt F1 causes my NVidia software to take a screenshot (even though I turned the software off... theoretically). Wonder if that's what messes with it. Hmm. I'll look into ...

Re: MMExtension v2.2 + MMEditor v2.1 Level Editor [June 4, 2019]

*cough* I fail to launch MMEditor, lol. I press Alt+F1 in game, it doesn't do anything (right alt opens a text file to execute code and whatnot, same as left Ctrl). I have MMExtension installed. Can it be launched in the Merge?

Re: Might and Magic 6, 7, 8 merge based on mm8 engine. [upd. 03.06.2021]

What is the "Revamp"? Is there somewhere I can read about what it does exactly? I saw it in the files, but left it alone since I had no clue. Sorry for asking billion questions, the documentation is so grand for this thing it's extremely easy to get turned around. I converted the cool MM7 ...

Re: MERGE classes & races: a big ol' post

Break it before I play :D

How about simply making a "Futuristic" branch or something where the save-breaking stuff is put in so that people with ongoing games can not use it? Is that problematic?

Sure.

Not at all even with optional disabling changes by some setting. Actually, coding side is usually easiest part if we do that kind of things that were already implemented.
What's the biggest roadblock then?

Re: Echo's MM8 Monstrosity Modling v1.0

The bigger issue is that it seems whatever changes between MM8 and Merge causes some textures to draw from a different file. *.bitmaps.lod has priority over bitmaps.lod - see GrayFace's "Custom lods" text . Default MM8 lods are left untouched (and sometimes non-used, like with bitmaps.lod...
