Description:

Heroes of Might and Magic III port using SDL

We want to rewrite the entire H3 engine (VCMI is NOT another mod) giving it new possibilities. Many months of intensive work resulted in creating application with impressive amount of features. Among current features are:

Support for HoMM 3 graphics and maps
Choosing scenario options
Adventure map, moving heroes and interactions with objects. Support for non-standard screen resolutions (graphics for 1024x768 and 1024x600 resolutions are included in the package)
Town interface, including support for Fort and Town Hall windows and handling all common structures
Hero window
Battle interface, handling most of spells
Basic battle AI

NOTES ABOUT THIS VERSION:

* To INSTALL, unzip it to /boot folder

* Will be necessary to play:

- SDL GCC4 Game Libraries (SDL, SDL_TTF, SDL_NET, SDL_MIXER and GETTEXT (libintl)
http://www.haikuware.com/directory/view-details/development/class-libraries/sdlgamelibraries-gcc4

- The original game (data files)

- In The Wake of Gods 3.58F mod

- See README.Haiku

* I hope that works so well to you as worked here...

- It's a bit unstable (like fheroes2). MaxOS said that is libvorbis. I'll investigate.

***ONLY WORKS WITH HAIKU GCC4 OR GCC4HYBRID***BE WARNED!***

Yes..unfortunately VCMI just works with hardcoded paths....

Sorry buddy, but the entire game is developed with hardcoded paths...
I'm doing a patch to fix it... soon will go upstream

You make sure that you have The Wake of Gods 3.58F mod installed too? and the recent SDL GCC4 libs? pure H3 will not work..
I tested with different installations and all runs fine...
