Please do.

I want to see SEXY ELF FEMALES wielding those badass swords! This may be possible. ;) asterix15 is working on getting alpha-channeled bmps to work. And I got the Ok from the Morrowind BB2 texturer to use her beautiful body textures. So once asterix15 learns how to do the alpha-channeled bmps, I may...

Are there any other locations? I remember signing up for Gamespot way back and I was bombarded with spam afterwards. Even though I was careful what I checked. Plus they insist on so much personal information just for basic downloading.

It would be great if this could be fixed in MM6. My husband would be quite happy, as he likes to play as a paladin-type. And modding covers a huge area. Including tweaks and even complete changes in gameplay. Me, I'm a graphically-oriented modder. But others are good at changing settings and such. W...

Here's a tut for how I do it in Paintshop Pro: http://www.zyworld.com/redwoodtreesprite/EldrScrlFrm/Alpha_DDS_Tutorial-Nigedo.htm Yeah, it's a different program, but it might help some. And here's a tutorial for Photoshop: http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index.php/Creating_Transparent_Icons Som...

Here's a thread at a small Morrowind modder's forum with some info that might help: http://princessstomper.proboards74.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1175823228 If you can work out how to do this and get the textures to be accepted by the games, we can work together to do ...

I really like the blue sword (item005) in particular. ---------------------------------------------------------- I unpacked your icons file and took a peek at your new weapon textures. They are basic bmps with a solid black background? And the game is able to show them fine on the paper dolls? If so...

actually no .. dont know how to make screenshots ingame.. doesnt work with f12 or printscreenkey I finally figured out how to do it. First do the Print Screen key. Then minimize or close MM. It helps to have a graphic program open with a blank area ready to draw on. Press control and v to paste the...

Odd about the wand bug. While that MM6 wand with the leaves floats a bit past the fingertips in MM7, I've had no other problems with using MM6 wands in MM7. Do the new weapons look right on the paper dolls without alpha channels? If so, I could do some really nice ones myself. :) I'd love to see scr...

6-8 seem to be quite moddable if one is willing to experiment a lot to get the hang of it. How about we each post what we've been able to mod, and also links to where we got all our modding tools? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'll start. I've been a...

i think a mod should be made for M&M 6 that lets you insted of becoming a Wizard or whatever the final upgrade should be beetween Archmage and the awsome Lich, cause my fravourite charecters have always been liches! :devil: Well, if I was able to start as a dragon in MM7, you could also edit on...

Ah, that's a big help. I haven't been using the Enhanced Monsters option. But it sounds like a good one to use for a different feel to the game.

The guide that comes with WoG lists some of them. But others don't have what type they are. Like the Lava Sharpshooters. And one needs to be careful when choosing what commander and henchman to use, as well as the troop types. Some seem obvious, like the Santa Gremelin and the Sylvan Centaur. But as...

There's some things that are reasonably easy to do to mod MM6 and MM7. I've made a personal MM7 mod that replaces the undeadish-looking human NPC faces to nicer looking ones from MM6 and MM8. I have also changed one female and one male goblin PC option to dragons, using the MM8 face frames for the d...

Uninstall Vista Install Windows 98 SE Problem solved. Sometimes it helps to have to have an older computer just for classic games. We have had a special computer for the great old RPGs and would never part with our older Windows versions. Though there still is the occasional problem where a program...

I was able to get the Might and Magic Millenium Edition, wich includes MM 4-7 (usually referred to as the best in the series) quite cheaply on Amazon ;) Amazon.com is a very good place to get older games like these. We just recieved our second copy (never hurts to have several copies of a classic g...

@RedWoodTreeSprite: If you could explain clearly what you mean, I can check. I tried putting folders containing the mod files into both the data folder and the dataa1 folder. In the data folder the (hof) game crashes without even starting, and in the dataa1 folder they simply don't work...but maybe...

Thanks so much.

Now to play around more with my Might and Magic games.

8| Where have you found any bitmaps with alpha-chanel in MM6 and MM8? The plants, animation frames for the creatures and NPCS, weapons and such. And the paper dolls that you equip everything on. Most have odd sounding endings like tga.bmp Here's a good explanation I found for the textures: In addit...
