if you'd want to edit Mystic's Vale which is M1, the dir should look like this: homm5/data/Maps/Multiplayer/M1.įrom data.pak/maps/multiplayer/(map) you will need to extract two files to this directory a file named map-tag.xdb, and another one which only contains the map's name such as M1.xdb. After choosing which map you want to edit, you'll need to create two following folders in homm5/data, eg. These directories are the maps (you can find the correspondencies to the map names in homm5/data/texts.pak -> Maps/Multiplayer/M1 for example/name.txt). In data.pak, navigate to /Maps/Multiplayer and you will see a bunch of directories called L1,M2 etc. Go to HOMM5 dir/data and open data.pak with winrar or similar. If you have no luck with the editor there is a way to edit the maps manually to allow allied play, the instructions used to be in but as far as I know it's down for now.
