Modifications
Below is a list of small game modifications for Heroes of Might and Magic V. Created by fans, they are meant to provide a slightly different experience in your game. Be aware that they could possibly mess up your Heroes V installation, so handle them with care. Celestial Heavens cannot test all mods that are published here, but those you will find here come from a reliable source.
There's no denying that mods can make a game far more enjoyable to begin with, and can keep it fresh for a long time afterwards. With that in mind, I'm hoping we can use this page to build a nice little modding community for HoMM V here, and help add to this great game. Look for new and updated mods as new patches come out, and hopefully we can put together a bit of a guide as to how to make your own soon. -Sir_Toejam
- Some mods have been updated for the latest patches, see if there is a note to that effect under the listing for your favorite.
I've added readmes and screenies to a lot of the mods, and packaged them inside of zip files for less confusion and easier organization.

| name: Confusion spell fix | ||
| type: spell modifier | ||
| fixes the confusion spell to work correctly. It seems that the game engine was programmed with an inverse way of calculating percentages for this spell, as to how it affects a stack it is cast on. So, while it was supposed to affect 90% of the creature's ranged/retaliation in a stack at advanced level, in reality it was only affecting 10%. this mod simply inverts the % affected for each level so it works like it says it should. Works with 1.3. |
