I was stumped here too, if I remember it good here is one, maybe more than one dwelling hard to spot. I guess that you were already in underground, here are some dwellings as well.

Ufortunatelly I do not recall exact location of these problematic dwellings, but they were mostly in the middle of the map.

You may look for them in map editor. ;)

If that campaign gives you trouble, wait until Crag Hack's campaign in H3: Shadow of Death...

In the last scenario you CANNOT conquer any of the 3 necro castles (blocked by colored gates) while they constantly churn out high level heroes with lots of troops.
Hardest campaign scenario ever.

Try to open it in map editor only. This is the map where you are, should be viewable with no problems. I just tested it, and it's opened like a charm. ;)

In map editor you can use search function or eyes and get it sorted out. Problem is that some dwelling are very bad to see from the game, but alas from the map editor it shouldn't be a problem.

The words in the quote above, "look for them" are the link, just click on it. ;)

Campaign files are included in the game itself, in data lod files. Here's way how to extract them but clicking on that link should solve your problem "instantly."

I realy hope, that it worked ;|

Myself I would been thinking over dwellings in the underground. Serpent Flies dwellings can nicely merge with surrounded treees. I tried to count them and find function returned about 27 of them.

I don't know how much dwellings of everything here should be, maybe I will be able to told you, I let the computer play itself with invincible army. So, here's chance if I will catch the end. (Here's no way how to stop it because it's all happening in one turn.)
(No, no that doesn't worked.)

Also I noticed that my old save is playable but all additional heroes get lost, hmm I played that six years ago with AB, looks like it's not fully compatible with Complete in all cicumstances.

From another save # of external dwellings is:
Gnolls 41
Lizard 29
Serpent Flies 27
Basilisks 18
Gorgons 12
Monarchs 2
Hydras 7

I managed to finish the campaign.As you said Serpent Flies dwelling was lost near the trees.
This mission was not hard but a little bit pointless, I mean what would happen If they turn 8 serpent flies undead.Would they destroy my army :devil:
thanks again pol i wont disturb you anymore =)
