HotA's unreleased(but awesome) graphics
i made this thread, because as a guy who works with graphics, seeing something great that is advertised, but which is never released, is a real downer for me. for others as well, i have no doubt.
so, down to it: the HotA team has shown a lot of graphics in their older screenshots, that they never released(for whatever reason). where do all those unused graphics go? in the recycle bin/trash? let's hope not. in some folder amongst all the other older/unreleased work? let's hope so.
HotA team, where are all those old graphics that you guys didn't deem fit to release? i think, that just because something might not mesh well graphically with the aim of your project(if that is the reason the graphics were withheld), it shouldn't mean that no one will be able to actually use those graphics(especially when most of them are top-notch).
so, HotA team: where are those old(but definitely wonderful) graphics that you guys never released?
(i think i should note, that i have every(?) HotA version that was ever released to the public. seeing some graphics that were actually released improve(and continue to), but not seeing other great graphics that were formerly advertised in any release, is saddening.)

Is not that. The 2 or 3 guys from H team visiting HC probably bookmarked the two threads about and display them directly. There is nothing else that could interest them here, so you better use their russian forum to have a two sides talk.

i'm not comfortable with creating a login on another website, just to communicate with people who visit a website i'm already a member of. it might be more efficient to produce results, but i don't like having multiple accounts for different forums anymore. hc is the only forum i'm currently a member of. all of the others went bye-bye when my old email got hacked, and i had to delete everything connected to it, including a long-lasting amazon account.

I just love Team HotA work, moreover, I seem to be even more impressed with it everytime I start the game, but their elitism makes me worried. I am sorry that I say this, but it shouldn't be like this in fans community. Everyone shares his or her work with others. HotA is great, but we all are people. We are equal ans should communicate with others.

I don't see what's the fuzz about elitism. They created a thread where you can apply for joining the team, if you think your work is worth. Because without coordination, such huge work can't succeed. If you want to submit them graphics -or think you can improve their graphics-, you apply to the team and wait for answer.
It's Fred who chooses the chit-chat way, don't blame the team for being elitist.

I think fred79 refers to these.
(and some others)
I like them, by the way, and I would like to see some released. Especially the Hell Steed/Nightmare.

old HotA thread or http://heroes3towns.com/.

This question is asked and answered every two pages in the HotA thread.
The answer is something like "Probably not (soon)".
I'm not overly excited about Cathedral myself, it's jut a rethemed Castle. I'd rather see Kronverk realised.

It'd be the best if both towns were released, but if I were to choose one from those you mentioned, I'd choose Kronverk. I like the concept of town of dwarves. Plus it reminds me about "Hammers of Fate" addon (for Heroes V) atmosphere.
Cathedral is interesting too, but for me a fine mix of dark powers and fallen knights can be done after Kronverk. I'm not saying that Cathedral is worse, no - it might be even better if it's about gameplay and fitting Antagarich itself. It's just... I like Kronverk more as something fresh in Heroes III.
