Heroes 3 making new textures - crashes

[Artas1984]

I thought about creating a new mod with the idea about adding new textures and replacing some old. This is an example:


By Artas1984

Practically it worked - i backed up original H3SPRITE.LOD and managed to replace some of the default files with new ones into the H3SPRITE.LOD.
We are talkinng about DEF files here..
I could change objects like trees or terrain..

But..

Whenever loading game, it would just crash before anything..

Any insight? Maby editing of Heroes 3 is simply useless?

If you want to mod you should try WoG for easier import and better tools. Here is a preview of what it can be done:


Even modding SOD needs WoG tools, as you need to modify ZEOBJTS.txt to allow passability to your new object. And its type/subtype.
