...also, I would like to add more types of elemental damage>
The single element is easy:
OnHitEffects[1303] = {
DamageKind = const.Damage.Air,
Add = 15}

but how can I add let`s say 10 air + 10 fire damage?

Thanx a lot.

I think one of the dark elves racial skills has a function of doing both fire and dark magic. I like the idea, it would be very useful to utilize and elevate the importance of less used magical type threats.

I still don't understand, are there fundamental differences between a necromancer and sorcerer? Currently it seems that you are only penalized for playing a sorcerer, because there are artifacts that you can't use and a necromancer starts with dark magic, which is a great bonus, difficult to undervalue.

Hello

Thank you Rodril for this absolute work of art. I've been playin this mod for quite some time now and it is a years-old dream come true.

I have a question about the V-storyline. I have retrieved the rod from the DDC, so where can I find V now? Do I need to beat all three games for V to pop up? If not then where is she?

She tends to hang out on Regna in the magic shop.

My lich gets desiesed, am I learning something new?
Artifact Wallace, sword, Armsmaster +10, stacks with armor armsmaster bonuses, my knight currently has +27, is this intended? Same with Ruler's Ring, Of Dark Magic. Probably other artifacts and bonuses work like this.
Artifact Percival bonus Carnage does not work.
Artifact Arthur does not have paperdoll and its bonus "of the gods" does not work.

Great job making this mod, i love it!

I faced one problem though, I have completed MM6 and now i am almost done with MM/ part of the game as well, im playing Light Side. But for some reason i cant accept the mission "The Final Task" which should give m e the swimsuit to go to the lincoln, but there is no swimsuits in the chests outside the throneroom either. I am probably missing something, hope anyone here can help me out!

I did try to give my Lich grandmaster ID monster through an editor, because I started in mm7 and planned that my sorcerer could get it. Now even after I removed it, when I right click in the skills menu of my lich anything, I get this...
Kewl. :D
Oh by the way, shared life spell works very weird, it removes like half of my knights health (1000+) even if the redistributed amount for my cleric and sorcerer would be significantly less.
Enslaved monsters don't attack other monsters, just become neutral and start wandering around aimlessly, also enslaved monsters don't always become green in the minimap.

some of the promotion missions in mm7 are also without text the first time you click on the questgivers task (though you see them in the questlog afterwards) - i especially saw that after the choosing the new judge (cant say that i saw it before that)

the old editors dont work with the combined version of the game - since some of them dont know the classes refered to in other games.
so either you go in the savefiles with an hexeditor or you do cheatengine in memory (or something like that - whatever suits you best)

No sound hero if disarmed a trap.
No sound in stores of the alchemists MM7 when a rich squad did not buy anything. Such files in MM7 there is.
No sound in human town hall MM7.
In MM7 there are sounds for each ship.
Not the right sound when the hero eats an Apple.
Not the right sound of walking in the snow.

I suggest adding additional promotions at late phase of the game (let say Regna for Jadame) or after finishing one of the stories (i.e. beating escaton on Jadame). I am happy with my main Arch Druid having GrandMaster Alchemy, but she can't do any magic on Grand, which is sad (okay for second promotion quest, but I already done All Arcomage on Antagrich, so having access to nighon, Celeste and The Pit and I wish to advance her soon, but currently it' not possible :( )

acromage quest in mm7:
for completion you can get the eclipse-shield from mm8 as a price
i guess that shouldnt be that way, since it is to be taken the "right" way in mm8 - shouldnt it?

So I can't get any hirelings in MM6. I haven't tested it in the others, but there's no option to ask anyone to join when I talk to them.

In fact, for a few minutes, I even had a button I could click to check my hirelings (or quest NPCs) but it went away pretty quick.

Not hirelings, followers. I understand hirelings are the party members you can recruit.

Are followers from 6 and 7 not available? What if I get a quest follower for a promotion quest or something? What happens then?

A special button will appear, when you get a follower, triggered by a quest. Followers are only possible through quests. You can't hire people like in MM6 or MM7 (until now).

Maybe this is because of the fact, that the reward for the quest contains artifacts for special races (like dwarfts) which aren't implemented in MMM. So these ones were replaced by random artifacts and relicts.
