Heroes of Might and Magic 8 2022

Might and Magic 8: Day of the Destroyer – is a representative of old-school role-playing games, which sends a group of heroes on an adventure in a fantasy world. This part continues the series of number rows and brings with it changes in game mechanics and graphic components. The player must assemble a squad of up to four characters to embark on a journey full of dangers and battles with terrifying monsters that populate the universe.

The story in Might and Magic 8: Day of the Destroyer tells of the unknown island of Jadam, to which the protagonists are heading. You must explore carefully, without encountering unexplored creatures, or on the contrary, with fights and risks. The locations are populated by Dark Elves who run a trade guild where you can obtain a variety of side quests. The main danger comes from the raids of pirates and renegade renegades, which the player group must fight and find out the reasons for such criminal activities in these regions.

Gameplay follows the canon tradition of the series, allowing you to create your own unique squad by choosing from the classes provided. When choosing heroes, it is important to consider skills and abilities in order to complement the party with skills and form a balanced and strong party, ready for trouble and able to fight in the lost places of the world of Enroth to survive. As you move around the map, the screen will show a window with all adventurers and their stats, life, and mana.

Version 2.5.7
<< MM6 - MM8 >>
[*] Support (i.e. no problems like crashes) for old saves with inconsequential incorrect data caused by my bug fixed in the previous version.
<< MM7, MM8 >>
[-] My bug: The Acid Burst fix that changes its element from Physical to Water was doing so even if it's explicitly set Physical in spells.txt. Now you can also disable the Acid Burst fix by adding FixAcidBurst=0 to INI.

However the dismissed character is not in the adventurer’s inn anymore… Is it gone forever? It’s not hard to replace but the cavaet is that he had all the cheese for that “cheese” quest in his inventory

My bad. Run this script from Ctrl+F1 console:

Code: Select all

local PlayerNumbers = {0,
	1,
	7,
	48,
	49,
}
	local base = 399 + Party.QBits.Low
	for i = 2, 5 do  -- set Hired bits
		Party.QBits[base + PlayerNumbers[i]] = true
	end

Update the choose party script from https://gitlab.com/GrayFace/mmext-scrip ... se%20Party

GreyFace,

I love the flexible UI. It brings so much more immersion to the game. Regarding the UI scaling options: Scale, partyscale, & StatusbarScale: would you please add scaling options to other parts of the UI? It would be nice to be able to scale them all individually, but of most value would be an independent scale for the minimap and the UI elements in the lower left corner.

One of the bigger annoyances with how the sub-screens of how all 3 games work (map, spellbook, quest log, etc) is that to open them requires one key, to close them requires another action (esc, or mouse clicking the close button). Is it possible to force them to open and close with the same mapped key? The character information screen ("~" key) performs like this. No need to perform 2 separate actions.

I have a following bug. With your patches installed on MM7 and MM8 the ground can simply disappear outside of dungeons in specific places. It looks like this.

https://postimg.cc/30mPGQcn

What to do to fix it?

From the readme:

MM8Patch ReadMe wrote: [+] ViewDistanceD3D option to set view distance in Hardware 3D mode, increased to 12000 by default. In Software mode you can increase view distance slightly by setting dist_mist. Known issue I haven't been able to fix yet: ViewDistanceD3D above game's default 8192 causes occasional brief disappearance of a near ground tile.

So you just need to set ViewDistanceD3D=8192 in mm8.ini.

Using 3D accelerated mode & ViewDistanceD3D, I can get ViewDistanceD3D=32000 without stuff disappearing. Beyond 32000, the npc's begin disappearing. In order to use this, I must make sure mm8.exe is in windows xp service pack 2 or 3 compatibility mode. I can even set ViewDistanceD3D=100000 without the ground, or buildings disappearing. But there will be no npc's visible.

I could only reproduce your error in software mode.

I installed this patch in the middle of a game, which might not be the wisest thing to do, but I was having crashes upon trying to enter the Destroyer's palace before installing it and the patch fixed the problem nicely. One issue though was that it wiped clean all my set Lloyd Beacons. I don't know if this is a bug or just something unavoidable but I thought it good to report it, just in case.

Will there be Heroes of Might and Magic 8?

Any news of a M&M Heroes VIII? According to the latest interview with Erwan La Breton, Ubisoft plans to neither release Heroes VIII in the near future nor sell the rights.

Will there ever be another Heroes of Might and Magic?

It looks like Ubisoft plans to revive the Might & Magic series. The company's studio in Shanghai is now hiring for the position of senior brand manager for its next game based on the world-famous franchise.
