Hi @racemus

I wonder if there is a chance to run Heroes of Might and Magic: A Strategic Quest on the fheroes2 engine?

If I'm not mistaken, the "Heroes of Might and Magic: A Strategic Quest" is the full title of HoMM I, while fheroes2 is an engine for HoMM II. These are games from the same series, but different, differing from each other in about the same way as HoMM III (Restoration of Erathia, Armageddon's Blade, etc, etc) differs from HoMM II. So no, it won't work.

@oleg-derevenetz, HoMM 1 & 2 are very similar, unlike when compared to HoMM 3. I'm sure they have the same wheels

They are no more similar than HoMM2 "similar" to HoMM3. HoMM1 has just 4 factions, there were no upgraded units, there was no concept of mana (each spell could only be used once), there were much fewer types of objects on the map than in HoMM2, etc, etc.

My dream is to make it possible to load/convert HoMMI maps in fheroes2. There are a couple of my favorite maps there("Two if by sea" for example). In principle, should not be impossible, most objects have direct analogs and the four factions of HoMMI correspond to a subset of HoMMII factions.

Or just make fheroes1 engine as side project.

This is not related to fheroes2. Moving this to the discussion section.
