And they have even been reducing the amount of support for modding along the way too. Maybe they should change their website advertising for Elemental:WoM that was mentioned in that other thread. Many or most of the advertising points have been found to be untrue (or in the case of modding, are getting more untrue). Too many "wouldn't it be cool if..." just results in a game that turns out not to be that cool at all. A lot is riding on Fallen Enchantress, for Eleme

Basically, we have one Earth, of a fixed size, and no matter how we try, we will never be able to produce an infinite amount of energy and food from a finite resource. So sooner or later, unless we drastically cut population growth right away (which looks extremely unlikely) we will have a population crash. Simple as that. One finite Earth and resources does not allow exponential population growth forever and definitely does not allow infinite human population. We ha

What about having a max of 1/2/4/8/16 of each study/lab/workshop etc. in Level 1/2/3/4/5? That would give the player a real incentive to getting fewer, higher level cities, and a better use of exponential numbers than the exponential citizen cost system ever was. Best regards, Steven.

The number of resource producing improvements should be set a lot higher for higher level cities than just +1 per level. Having the number too low will just result in city spam, whereas having a good number will make higher level cities worth chasing. You could even dump the citizen system like Sethai suggests and just have a certain well-balanced limit on resource producing improvements for a city of a given level. Best regards, Steven.

I think the link must have been directly translated into text, instead of just showing the link. Best regards, Steven.

Will there be? I think a lot of people would be very interested if in fact you have implemented this. Best regards, Steven.

And with HOMM2 - the graphics are quite stylized but hold up well, better than H3's (and even H5's, which is based on H3's look but in 3D) more "realistic" look. It seems the more "realistic" graphics in a game are, the quicker they age and start to look bad, and good 2D will last a lot longer and generally look better than equivalent 3D. It will be great in fheroes2 when we can have huge maps (pote

Yeah, I support this too. Best regards, Steven.

Yeah, I think it would be cool to see that back, too. =) Best regards, Steven.

No, they were originally going to call the first "1.3 beta" version 1.29, but they changed their mind and called it 1.2b instead. I'll see if I can get Frogboy to update the name of this thread to eliminate confusion. Best regards, Steven.

No, they decided to call the first 1.3 beta 1.2b, rather than 1.29. Best regards, Steven.

Good points, Heavenfall. Best regards, Steven.

I agree. Best regards, Steven.

Even though it says Studies should cost more population the more you have, they are actually costing 1 each time. I have just the one city. Save attached. You'll notice that it says the cost should be higher, but the actual cost when you build it is always 1. Use Mods is off. There is the same problem with Workshops too, so I would say that the UI has been updated, but when it's time to tak

People are starting to talk about the "P" word, Pollution. But they don't talk about the "P" word, Population. It's like you're allowed to talk about clean, renewable energy, but you aren't allowed to talk about clean, renewable, sustainable and non-wrecking population (ie. limiting and reducing population). I'm afraid there will be a mass population crash, sooner or later. It is inevitable as Population is growing exponentially, but food growth can

My antivirus (Comodo) was already added. Best regards, Steven.

How will the AI handle particularly tough Wildlands areas? Best regards, Steven.

In fheroes2 , there are plans to provide access to really huge maps. Although custom-made maps would take a long time to make, a good one could last ages. It would be cool to make really big maps a single player could play without the steamroller effect. And because the graphics aren't that demanding (though they still look quite colourful) it wouldn't use much memory. A comprehensive event s

Sethai, you make some very good points. Best regards, Steven.

Could you allow modders to set up bigger screens for higher resolutions, like VCMI Project does for their Heroes 3:WoG engine rewrite? In the VCMI Project different resolutions above the minimum have different defined placements of the interface elements, and sometimes extra information that's not in smaller resolutions. If you can, you might want to let modders have the capability to design bigger resolution screens, and choo

XP Mode is on Pro too. I've got Win 7 Pro 32-bit so I know how XP Mode works. =) However, it will generally only run programs that don't require special graphics drivers and the like. So a lot of productivity software will work, but games (apart from simple ones, like in-built OS games) in general won't. Best regards, Steven.

I like this idea Sethai! [e digicons]k1[/e] Like (both the "enjoy" meaning and the "similar to" meaning ;-)) the option between fighting and talking your way around an obstacle in pure RPGs or games like Deus Ex. Best regards, Steven.

Did you end up kicking up a stink about your plight? We don't really want to lose you. Best regards, Steven.
