Editing Talk:Campaign

==...==

When I was hashing out the campaigns for HoMM3, my objectives were simple.  Keep it short, simple, and to the point.  Limiting campaigns to 3 or 4 maps accomplished a couple goals.  First, more players were more likely to finish a campaign if it was short.  Second, a collection of short campaigns created the opportunity to showcase individual factions, which gave a player the opportunity to experience HoMM3 in full.

== Incorrect Victory Conditions ==

I found that most campaign victory conditions are not able to set in the map editor. For example, only ''Acquire Artifact''/''Transport Artifact'', no ''or Defeat All Enemies''. The templates are missing these content (e.g. [[Template:ScenarioVars table]], [[Template:Scenario]]). After editing them, we also need to edit victory conditions in every campaign and its scenarios. That would spend lots of time. --[[User:Sanust|Sanust]] ([[User talk:Sanust|talk]]) 15:32, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
* Let's wait until we can confirm this. I went through the victory/loss conditions of all the scenarios about a month ago and they seemed all correct to me then. How are you checking these? I broke them down into the h3m files, then moved them into my Maps folder and looked at them via the in-game Single Scenarios setup screen. --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 15:50, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
** NOTE: I usually use the HotA install/tools for my work...maybe there is a discrepancy between that and SoD? --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 15:50, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
* If you are just commenting on the options available in [[Template:ScenarioVars table]], then I agree. I only added the things to that template that I actually found in-game --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 15:53, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

-* From Victory / Loss conditions the only ones not available in the game are:
-** Having a special victory condition AND 2 Special loss conditions or
-*** 3 special victory conditions, out of which one is the standard one, or
-*** 2 special victory conditions, out of which none of them is the standard one.
-** Everything else can be done in the new HotA Map Editor. Of course, a lot of it is ''not'' accessible in the old Maped - [[User:Csaros|Csaros]] ([[User talk:Csaros|talk]])
