MM8,5 - Echo of Destruction

[vladimir-maestro]

the most HOT babe in the might and magic

she is burning with a blue flames of passion

fire effect is the most complicated and hard to create but i think we got succeded!


---
fire lady will have a boy-friend with the yellow flame and a fire-bird.

yes, they are new fire elementals replacement.

[vladimir-maestro]

someone do not like blue-colored one. maybe she willbe tinted into yellow-red palette

[MMXAlamar]

Reminds me of the energy elementals in Heroes III. Very nice effect!

i'll open you a little secret:
...there is a little "tent" icon, clic on it!
it will allow you to wait till any time you want!!! even till then when shops are open O.o



btw - shops in mm8 are very organized! in mm6-7 some shops were working in different time - day or night = it was really annoying!

[Salamandre]

I am playing right now the original and I bow to you for some modifications:

different textures/shapes for armorsmith, weaponsmith, magic store, alchemist, tavern, spells shop.

It is a nightmare to find them in several towns, even with hand notes.

Btw, on your sites, the chinese mod for mm7 crashed my game. A pity, I liked its graphics. Good luck with mm8, I am eager to play it.

DAT PIRATE CHEST.

Anyway, quick question - will this make the actual MM8 game harder? I always found it way too easy... And how could I not take a dragon with me? HOW?

While less convenient for power play I actually felt that such difference between shop work time helped for immersion in world. Basically fact that artifact shop worked less than blacksmith gave some more exclusive taste to it. Fact that light guild worked only few hours gave even more exclusive taste even though it was inconvenient(still considering that you only need it few times per game it's not that bad).
On mm8 It all felt so rushed and it felt so much less natural.

there will be difficulty settings...but you cannot change them while playing one setting - only restart game with new difficulty.

it's a time draining)
I better "exterminate" another dungeon than wait!
Or create a magic beast like in Sacred II - little imp with chest)
Better drop items to chest and go clearing another location i think

i really doubt that you will ever come to the entrance of the new dungeon in 5 seconds...even with f2 double speed...and really cannot clear it for sure.

will you ever use other archive than 7z ?

[Lord13]

Fantastic work work vladimir! Just finished (for 4th time) the original MnM 8, can't wait to start it again with your mod

[vladimir-maestro]

will you ever use other archive than 7z ?

if difference between 7z & zip will be not so big - we will use zip.
but if 7z will compress more effictevly - we will use 7z.

7z is just the same archive and it is freeware. the only problem to download it - right clic - save file as = one more action. NOT JUST CLICING ON IT!!!

btw there is a recomendation to use any kind of dowload managers with our site "mmg" cause managers understand 7z files and download them via simple clic like other files.

new files we uploads with zip archives but mm8,5 is a very HUGE addon only now it is already 600mb+ (mm8 data was 217) we have 400+mb and this is not a limit!

so lets expect our site free space limit or good file compression

we will have music enhancement (unique melody for every map and dungeon) and more unique monsters for new location like assylum. so we expect that our addon will be about 1Gb

[Coldy]

Oh I can hardly wait for this addon. It will be epic!

[vladimir-maestro]

completing character adding
some of the new-added faces

p.s.
there are some new ground textures too.

I like what I see so far. I was wondering however if their's tool out there to make the layout of the maps could be reversed without rebuilding everything. I just think it'd make things feel a little more fresh. Don't get me wrong. It's still you mod. What you want to add and what you don't is up to you.

[vladimir-maestro]

there is such tool called mm8leveleditor
still in development and improvement, getting better and better with every version.

but we didn't used it yet.
