Something to note here: the resolution is effectively 640Р“вЂ”480 (or whatever HOMM3) was originally, in that when you go down to the original graphics thatРІР‚в„ўs what youРІР‚в„ўre seeing on screen. ThereРІР‚в„ўs an option in the menu that allows you to toggle between the HD and the original graphics, and the difference is pretty crazy. ItРІР‚в„ўs very nice РІР‚вЂњ if you ever played the Halo Anniversary edition and saw how nice it was and thought РІР‚Сљah yes, this is exactly how I remember itРІР‚Сњ and then press the button and see how much worse the original actually looked, itРІР‚в„ўs like that. The HD Release DOES graphically improve the game. Otherwise, the game is the same as ever, and you have all the expansions and all that entails to play.

The HD mod does NOT graphically improve the game as Logan might have implied with this line РІР‚Сљif you want to enjoy HoMM III in impressive detailРІР‚Сњ, all it does is allow you to fit more on screen at once.

I bought the full version off of GoG a year or two ago, and I was using the HD Mod until it stopped functioning and kept crashing a turn or two into the game (bloody russians) but this may have been fixed in more recent iterations. Since the end of 2013, the team is coordinated by Orzie.IРІР‚в„ўve played both. However, according to the team members, it is strongly outdated, and is barely able to describe the current state of the project. Later on, the duty of the project coordinator was taken by KivoР”В¬urrently the latest version of the mod is marked as January, 2013 (open to public access). The Succession Wars Mod dates back to 2008, when mister_kalu started the project by experimenting with Heroes 3 and adding various Heroes 2 content to it.

In 2018, the team officially announced that the upcoming v0.8 release will be graphically and functionally compatible with the actual builds of Heroes 3 High Resolution Project by baratorch, except for HD+ functionality. Numerous changes are expected to be made, and will be revealed right after the official mod update.Р”В¬ompatibility with other modifications The magic system and the artifact system are claimed to be different from classic games.Р”Р„nother big tweak over Heroes 3 engine is the invention of the dynamic castle looks on different terrain and fixing the Bad Luck feature (both present in Heroes 2), which will be also featured in the next release of the modification. For instance, some secondary skills like Necromancy or Mysticism are likely to be tweaked in the next releases of the mod, with some global map objects having changed their functionality, like optional skill learning in the Witch Huts. With the appearance of new animations characteristic to Heroes 3 (Defense, Turn Around, Start Moving, Stop Moving) all creature sprites are likely to receive additional animation frames.Р”Вifferences with Heroes 3 SoD mechanics Р”Р„lthough mainly the gaming mechanics of the modded game is still close to the one of the vanilla Heroes 3, there are some shifts towards several Heroes 2 features and even some unique ones are expected. The battlefield size is expanded to the Heroes 3 standards, and Heroes 3 battle mechanics intends range penalty and a limited movability for the majority of flying creatures. The huge difference with the vanilla Heroes 2 is the battle screen. Moreover, some new map objects with a brand new functionality are expected too. The project map editor is supposed to have all Heroes 2 map objects and a selection of new ones to satisfy Heroes 3 standards, such as creature dwellings, banks, conservatories, and all other. In addition to classic Heroes 2 factions ( Knight, Barbarian, Sorceress, Warlock, Wizard, Necromancer) the mod adds its own factions named Witch (a concept inspired by Heroes 3 Witch class with its own unique features), Dervish (an eclectic desert-themed faction composed partially from Heroes 2 neutrals and partially from new creatures made from scratch), and Heretic (unlike Heroes 3 Heretic class, it is a might-oriented faction with a different lineup). Unlike Heroes 3, the mod reinvents the single-class system for every faction, and takes Heroes 2 class-faction system as a basis. The project is supposed to enrich the legacy of the first two Heroes of Might and Magic games by focusing on the pixel graphics style characteristic to them, adding new creatures, characters and a lot of other content with regards to the same graphic style and also, in the foreseeable future - the classic Heroes 2 campaigns and even the new campaigns that are supposed to develop the Enroth-based lore further.Р”Вetailed Information Factions and Classes 2.5 Compatibility with other modifications.
