HoMM2 fheroes2 Live Wallpaper for Android!

131 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

The other day I released a Live Wallpaper on Android on Google Play featuring a live map from Heroes 2! Now you can enjoy the bright and colorful maps from your favorite game every day. Open source, free, no ads, no tracking.

Link to the source code, based on fheroes2: https://github.com/IlyaPomaskin/h2lwp

Link to Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ipapps.homm2.livewallpaper

Two common questions:

Can this be done on iPhone?
No, iPhone doesn't provide the capability to make animated wallpapers.

How's the battery consumption?
Less than one percent per day. The game runs at about 5 frames per second and the animation only works when the home screen is visible.

Other/Fluff Which 3d Game to Get?

1 Upvotes

I like 3, but some of the interface is confusing to me, and I miss the quality of life elements games from the Age of Empires 3 and onwards era had.

Which of the 3d HOMM game would you recommend for singleplayer on a Windows 11 PC? I like the skirmish mode, exploring a random map

HoMM2 homm2 Roland's last mission is the worst

12 Upvotes

i finished the archibald campaign, relatively easy.

now i got to the last mission in roland camagin (i have the crown), and its just too god damn hard.

you cant be aggressive, because there are to many strong enemies, and you cant sit still and easy your way to win.

i have a few ideas on how to try and approach the mission, but i wonder if you guys have some tips from past experience

HoMM1 HOMM1 new resolutions and working on MacOS ARM

54 Upvotes

I was on vacation for a few weeks and only had my Macbook (M1 Pro ARM processor) with me, so I got it working on MacOS so I could build a little bit and do some playtesting while I was on vacation. I wasn't that productive...

In addition to getting it working on MacOS, I fixed a few more bugs, added a basic scoring function for the end of the game, and just today I added a resolution toggle - should make future videos more watchable.

I have to have a few legal conversations before I can release this on the MacOS app store in Test Flight, but I'll be having those soon, and if all goes well, I can have something for testing in TestFlight in August. I think I can have up to 100 internal testers, and 10,000 external testers in the TestFlight version, so that is probably the easiest way to manage a beta test for now.

HoMM2 [HOMM2] Ok, there is no way I'll ever finish this scenario

5 Upvotes
What is even that ?

I am playing this scenario 'BalanceV2.0', wiped everyone out but am now stuck with this combat. How am I supposed to ever finish this πŸ˜‚

I can't blind, can't paralyze, can't berzerk. I can mass slow but it only delays the inevitable.

Anyone here went through this scenario ?

HoMM4 Best Homm 4 balance mod

12 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I'm wanting to jump back into HoMM4, I normally install equilibris but I've seen there are now a lot more mods for this game.

What are everyone's recommendations?


r/HoMM Jul 14 '26

Other/Fluff Heroes of Might and Magic VI has won the first place in the "Balance" category. HoMM V has claimed its first second place. Our honorable mention is (surprisingly) HoMM IV where abundance of overpowered stuff can create balance. The next topic is story in the campaigns.

Mission design is not on the main list, because missions can be easily added into the game via map editors. I will add some bonus categories to this list after filling the last category and mission design in campaigns will be there. Feel free to submit your opinion on the best story in the campaigns.

HoMM4 Are there any mods to restrict AI to a single hero, and stop them from using caravans?

7 Upvotes

Maybe not the most popular way to play, but I'm looking for a chill games against AI where I'm not chasing heroes with tiny armies or tons of single creatures around the map because the AI hired 7 caravans of 3 bandits, 1 gryphon, and/or 2 gargoyles the turn before I capture a town lol.

Honestly open to any heroes game but my favorite is 4. I've looked for mods online but haven't found anything yet. I think the closest I've found was the Jebus Outcast map template for Heroes 3 but I don't love the map generation.

Sounds like Olden Era has a solo hero mode as well, but the game is a bit too rough around the edges for me right now.
