I've started several games in this excellent mod, and I have a few questions:

- Pirate ships/Black wind -- they cannot destroy improvements (fishing boats, etc)?

- Barrows -- why would you want to build them? Necromancy allows you to build them, and I'm just wondering why.

- Pitboss -- does this mod work well with pitboss?


Thanks... I've played *every* Heroes of Might and Magic game since before it was even called HoMM (King's Bounty on my apple 2c)... I've played Fantasy General, Master of Magic, Kohan 1/2, Warcraft, Age of Mythology, the Age of Wonders series, Disciples 1/2, Battle for Wesnoth, and many many more fantasy war games.

Fall from Heaven knocks my socks off... fantastic job!

On Pitboss...

Unfortunately FfH doesn't work with pitboss. One main reason for this is that FfH uses Vanilla pitboss which is buggy. Warlord's pitboss is much more stable. There are other incompatiblities.

Pitboss is something i've been wanting badly for FfH as it is the way my friends and i do multiplayer. The team has lots of other priorities and doesn't seem interested in making the mod work with pitboss.

My big hope is that once FfH is ported to the newest expansion pack BtS it will work with the latest pitboss. We'll see.

There are other multiplayer options for FfH but none that work like pitboss with the day timers and such i don't believe. If you are a programer and do get the mod to work please PM me and post your methods.

Yeah, none of the pitboss code is exposed (its not in the SDK) so there isnt much we can do about it. Like you said Im hoping the move to BtS will help smooth things out.
