Hey i love the game, could i ask some help on how to generate a land only map? I tried setting the borders to land in the nodemap creator, but it still has sea on the corners or no change at all.
The demo version on steam currently isn't the same as the full release. Once the steam release happens (today or tomorrow depending on your timezone), the Itch version should get an update too, enabling Pillar.
One bug i noticed is that if you're deploying an army and hold shift while dragging a unit card, you could continue to just multiply your selected forces. This was 1.9.3 though. I'll text 1.9.4 and get back to you asap
Bought this while home for a weekend on my main PC, but now i'm back in NYC with just my macbook. I freaking love the game, it's amazing. So if there could be a mac port soon, that would be awesome!
This game is great! Literally one of the best I've encountered on itch.io. Really a testament to what is possible from a few dedicated indie developers. Hope this inspires others!
I've played this game for hundreds of hours. I really enjoy it and I look forward to mods on Steam. Thank you for your hard work in making this game :)
yesterday I bought the game. hope for steam key after release.
btw, during probably 3-4 hours of game, it creashed 4 times. one time with some error code, rest just crash without anything.
Game look pretty well, but what is more important, it will have some "love" from developers for some time period and lots of suff could be added/fixed/balanced. I'm looking forward for more updates
I just uploaded v 1.9.0, and there'll be a devlog coming up soon with some more details.
Quick overview: Hero's Hour lands on steam on 1st of March. That will be the 2.0 update, which has a new faction, new translations into Spanish, French, German, Polish, Russian, Chinese, and hopefully Japanese and Korean as well. Until then, game is only available in English.
The price of the game will rise, but I'll be setting the game on sale for 1-2 weeks at the same point, so the increase will be more gradual.
Is there a way to help out with translations if we know another language beyond those? I speak Norwegian and a Norwegian translation is absolutely not necessary because we all speak fluent english. But it is rare and might make any Norwegian give it another look.
Hi NoCarz, um, we had to ban your discord account after it was hacked and started spamming phishing links. You'll have to make a new account to join the HH discord server. Sorry about the commotion
Paid version has written "Premium" under the title inside the game. The free version has only 4 factions, the premium one has all of them (other 6 factions).
j'ai essayé d'acheter le jeux sans réussir a le télécharger j'ai demander de l'aide au support mais ca reste flou je ne sais pas si j'ai payer ou non et personne n'est capable de m'aider
Tried the free demo and had a blast! Love the graphics and I loved the building in acane which granted the player a free spell to use per battle which after battle gets shuffled. Had a 100 stack of goblingunners which I just transformed into random units, dominating the field! Love it!
Jut bought the game and love it. I think I've been waiting for a fantasy pixel style wargame all my life hahahaha. Any advice on modding? Can you create new factions, for instance?
Join our discord to learn more about the modding possibilities. There are mods being made already and we are working on better possibilities for the steam launch.
I love this game, but it crashes so much. Starting a new game, loading a game, randomly in battles, randomly selecting things.
This is consistent across two totally different computers.
Are there plans to solve these crashes? It seems many others have the same problems. I'd hate for this game to launch on Steam with so many crash bugs as it's great, but would get pretty harshly rated in it's current state.
I really like this game, and am excited about the major new update. I just updated the game for 1.8.2 version, and I keep getting this code error which forces me to abort my game. I get to play one turn, then when I wait for my second turn I get this.
Gotta add a difficulty where the AI doesn't just completely steamroll me. If I'm on a map with more than one neutral city the AI moves WAY faster than me and it devolves into a slow game of "how long can I run back and forth desperately trying to keep a town".
You can set your city to start at a higher level if you want. I think this also affects the AI towns as well, but I find it's really good for a faster start.
Played the demo and became very interested in the game! I do wish there was some right click functionality to exit some dialogs instead of hitting "exit", but this seems like a very neat game, and I hope it continues being developed!
Great fun. Stayed up way too late last night playing.
Some comments/nice to haves - a bit more weak critters in the very beginning to level up. Fine as is, but might be a good option.
AI seems off some points - sometimes the enemy AI fights, sometimes it ignores weaker heros.
Option to NOT see allied movement. Would like to play an ally game but don't want to waste time watching.
Option to reduce # of players on a map.
Some method to avoid steam rolling - i.e. player gets to a steamroll point with like lvl 20 hero while AI has lvl 10. vice versa, AI is near impossible and walks into slap you around. Not consistent though, which is good.
How do you enable mods? I see the mods folder, I see mods settings.txt.. not finding the connection. "start game with 1 of each modded artifact" '0' on the next line - should that be '1'?
any mods that are in the folders in the mods section currently are automatically enabled. future versions will have the option to turn on/off mods in the menu.
Wow is this game great!!! I'm an oldschool HoMM addict (2 is the best! 3 is close second!) and I'm also a supporter of the FHeroes2 project. So boy have I got to say that this game scratches all the right itches in all the right places. It strikes me as a lightweight pixelated mashup of HoMM 2/3 and Dominions, and I mean that as nothing short of high praise. I love it, and I can't wait to buy it again on Steam!
I'm not sure what the issue might be. Lots of others are playing v1.8.2 without issue (also some normal bugs, of course). Maybe the security issue stems from elsewhere on your system? Or is a false flag
look, I hate to tell you this, but Norton is a terrible AV program. most of the freeware ones even are way better. This is one of the reasons... Norton false flags ANY program that has the ability to modify an executable file. which many, many do, btw. you have to add the exe file for Hero's Hour to your exception list, or just turn off norton before you play the game. there is no virus in this game.

There's a strange bug. The free demo has the Pillar faction enabled (the player or the AI can choose it) and it exists in the Lexicon as well.
However, the full version does not have access to the Pillar faction, it doesn't even exist in the Lexicon.
This seems counter-intuitive to say the least. I'm in 1.9.4 for both versions of the game.
The demo version on steam currently isn't the same as the full release. Once the steam release happens (today or tomorrow depending on your timezone), the Itch version should get an update too, enabling Pillar.
The demo was amazing! I've bought the complete game! It remember me the good old times when I used to play Heroes of M&M! Good Job!
Again... Love this game but just want you to know.

Bought it yesterday, seems to run smoothly. Encountered one crash sofar but autosafe works perfect.
Do we get a steam code once the game goes live?
where to bug report?
On the official Discord server. There is a dedicated channel for bug reports.
Link: https://discord.gg/ayAXnz6P
Hey, sorry - v 1.9.3 had a pretty major bug that made the game not work like at all. It's been fixed now and v 1.9.4 has been uploaded.
Sorry for the issues this might have caused.
One bug i noticed is that if you're deploying an army and hold shift while dragging a unit card, you could continue to just multiply your selected forces. This was 1.9.3 though. I'll text 1.9.4 and get back to you asap
I love Heroes of Might and Magic III and V. But I prefer this more, because it manages to make the game more fast and engaging
Bought this while home for a weekend on my main PC, but now i'm back in NYC with just my macbook. I freaking love the game, it's amazing. So if there could be a mac port soon, that would be awesome!

If we've purchased this game already will we receive a steam key after release?
Yes he has stated that we will be getting a Steam key once it's released there.

hi , i need new invinite for discord i cant join on this from website ,can You send me new invinite ?
Hi NoCarz, um, we had to ban your discord account after it was hacked and started spamming phishing links. You'll have to make a new account to join the HH discord server. Sorry about the commotion
Will the game lanuch on macOS?
Same question, would love to see one when it releases on steam
Is this game supported in Korean?
The game has English, Spanish, French, Polish, German support and soon in Russian. But for now not in Korean.
How can you tell the difference between the free demo and the paid version?
Paid version has written "Premium" under the title inside the game. The free version has only 4 factions, the premium one has all of them (other 6 factions).
Thanks!
why would you buy the game when you give us necromancy immediately lol
j'ai essayé d'acheter le jeux sans réussir a le télécharger j'ai demander de l'aide au support mais ca reste flou je ne sais pas si j'ai payer ou non et personne n'est capable de m'aider
J'ai payé et telechargé sans aucun probleme. Mais tu es sur de avoir payé? Et tu a reussì à telecharger la demo?

I already purchased the 1.3 version but do i have to pay to get the expansion update?

Will buying the Itch version get us a Steam key, or are they a separate deal?
He said previously that once it comes out on steam, previous purchasers will get a steam key.
Great, thanks.

This happened when trying to load a game.

So, Hero's Hour v 1.8 is now out, as is v1.8.1 and v1.8.2. Its a pretty monumental update, you should check out the development log to see what's new!
The current version is v 1.8.2, still the same: hero's hour.exe
(SONAR.ProcHijack! G43) detected by SONAR
I'm not sure what the issue might be. Lots of others are playing v1.8.2 without issue (also some normal bugs, of course). Maybe the security issue stems from elsewhere on your system? Or is a false flag

Now I know why my computer was freezing. Filename: hero's hour.exe
Threat Name: SONAR.ProcHijack! G43
I have norton internet securitas detected a high threat while launching the game, be it hacking.
