The Heroes Round Table

Edit1 iLiVeInAbOx05 I see you were faster but not so thorough.. :tongue: Hehe yep, just giving the news about the Heroes games :D GOG will add a bundle each day, but if you miss a good one, don't worry, they'll all be back on the last day! Then I believe they are rotating the "flash sales"...

Heroes 1-5 + Chronicles is up for 75% off (when bought as a bundle) at GOG. They're probably 50 - 60 % off if bought individually, but I can't see it since I already own them all from GOG.

I haven't been very impressed with GOG sales lately. I guess I've just spoiled myself with all the 75% and up discounts and now I only have the more expensive games (smaller discount) to choose from. I do wish we could get another good Insomnia Sale. The first one was so much fun. Again, maybe I bou...

Yeah, I know it will for sure be good to go on day 1. I just don't have a lot of time to spare right now, and I remember seeing HotS for half off during a Fry's promo not too long after it came out. So, I'm probably going to wait since I have plenty of other stuff to do, keep an eye on the promos, a...

Update: The third map is nearly complete. I just need to finish adding difficulty settings and then I can start testing it. I've been working a lot on updating maps 1 and 2 (mostly 2) from Karmakeld's feedback, so I've slowed down a little as far as advancing to the next map. I should, however, be b...

Final expansion is almost here! Going to be really tough for me to not buy it on day 1 ~_~

Only 32C? After a mild Spring, Summer is still in full force here in Texas with a 36C - 39C temp most days

Starcraft is one of the few games I buy at full price. However, since I'm pretty busy at the moment, I think I'll wait for the first discount sale at Fry's for Legacy of the Void before I pick it up, since I likely won't get to it until the price drops anyway :) I used to play it all the time, but B...

Well, I finished firs scenario. There are two things I didn't like: 1) Word of "Dom" which appears every second line of the text. After battle with dark god, when I saw final text and saw again: "Dom Viteus, Dom Viteus, Dom Viteus, Dom Viteus, Dom Viteus....." I screamed "G...

Maybe I'll put win7 on my new desktop once I get it put together

GoG pretty much told me they aren't going to do anything about the compatibility issues -.- Basically said if a patch to the OS happens to magically fix the issues, then they would list the OS as supported. Pretty lame. I used to love GoG, but they've been pissing me off lately. I guess I'll look in...

I've poked GoG.com about their Heroes IV complete, since it does not have Windows 10 listed as an OS for the game, but they said they don't have any fix so far for compatibility issues

I've been delaying my switch to windows 10 because of this.

I, personally, love Heroes 2

That's where I always start when I do a play-through of my Heroes games

Thanks Michael!

The third map layout is complete (except for some minor landscaping details and some items). I probably have the dialogue written for about half of the map, and I have scripting work to do, but I think it's progressing pretty quickly

I must be. Thanks!

Is there a detailed map of the Shire around Bag End? Or is there room for interpretation? I'm sure there's room for interpretation :D Are we allowed to post links here? I seem to recall somewhere that we're not supposed to, so back to google :D Type in "Lord of the Rings map of Bag End" a...

I would like to take in all the major events from the books. I know there is a short section where Aragorn, the Rangers, Legolas and Gimli set off into the Paths of the Dead. It is the only section of the book I think that none of the hobbits take part in (by and large, The Lord of the Rings is wri...

Yes, I agree with your points on Heroes Community and H4 specifically. Well, I wouldn't be looking at taking on this task without some really good collaborators. I don't think it is worth doing unless the finished result is a high standard and doesn't take years to finish. Don't let anyone discoura...

It's not what I'm saying. I only say that I will have 200 variables for artifact and you will have 10000: My script: vLongsword, vShield, vXXXXXX..... (same variable for all hero) Why: Because I take/give all artifact on the encounter AND victorious script, so each hero trig his encounter/victoriou...

To IliveinAbox05: Reason#2: All hero will use the same artifact variable: vLongsword for exemple. So if there is 50 hero on the map and there is approx 200 artifacts. With your way of scripting, there will be 50*200 variable = 10 000 variables for artifact, but with my way, there will be only 200 v...
