Wow.. looks like the towns are true 3D after all and not the 2D within a 3D plane diorama/parallax trick I was originally thinking.. although I do still wonder if there's some sort of diorama illusion and you can't go full 360 camera rotation.

Re: Silence of Siren
Looks like they've done another nice dev diary on day and night cycles that appear to change the city screen too which is cool. Some of those alien planets look really nice under darkness with lots of glowing plants and things. https://steamcommunity.com/games/2147380/announcements/detail/4262180872...

Well it did mostly work thanks to his mod.. past tense.. As Ubisoft have patched the game again.. my copy is currently downloading a big 6GB patch. I almost got excited thinking they were fixing some of the stuff you fixed in Red Trent's mod.. but no one has a clue what they changed and from the sou...

oooooh nope.. judging by this animation the town screens are indeed full 3D.. I think I can even see people walking around in the Knight one!

Wow.. Ubisoft have just announced a new Heroes of Might & Magic game called Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era that is not their usual mobile pay to win shovelware and surprisingly even uses the original HoMM title instead of their usual Ubi style 'Might & Magic: Heroes' name system. It'...

Re: Songs of Conquest 1.0 Arrives with Final Barya Campaign and Console Version Announcement
Interesting to see that the Art Book has a forward from HoMM3 designer Gregory Fulton, wonder if it's because he really likes what they did or if they did a deal where he promotes his HoMM3 like game Fanstratics in there, or both! Looks like they've hit half a mil players and have already announced ...

Sadly the full release in Q1 2024 hasn't quite worked out but apparently it should be coming pretty soon. Some of the updates over the last 6months have been pretty cool. Old campaign overhauls, new campaigns, maps, graphics, even a new main menu and GUI overhaul to support steam deck, new castle si...
