Cleaner way: Grab daily build installer and install VCMI into new folder, then copy “data”, “maps” and “mp3” folders from some folder with installed Heroes 3 into main VCMI folder. Also google play version for Android users should be available soon.Įasiest way: Grab daily build installer and install VCMI into Heroes 3 folder. We try to not break them up so they should work fairly well most of the time. For example VCMI scripting while not being WoG focused work, will be replacement for WoG’s scripting feature. Note that some VCMI-specific modding features may also allow remaking some part of these mods by modders as side-effects. Remaking these in VCMI would be possible, but there are bigger priorities. No, HD Mod, HotA and WoG are mods that work with original Heroes 3, VCMI is new game. Is HD Mod / HotA / WoG compatible with VCMI?.Also VCMI works without problems on Windows, Linux, MacOS and Android. Our goal is to make “better” heroes 3 that overcomes various H3 engine limitations and allows way easier extensibility / modding than original game. What is the purpose of VCMI? Why to play or develop it if Heroes 3 is already there?.We also plan supporting WoG mod features, but for now there are areas in VCMI that need more attention than WoG features. Everything in VCMI is made from scratch - loading game files, drawing graphics, AI, game mechanics etc. We use original Heroes 3 graphic, sound and text assets and make new game that is supposed to work 100% same as H3. In simple words: Remake of Heroes of Might and Magic 3.
