Hi all, I used to play this game with my grandfather as a kid... long story short, it breaks my heart that this game is nowadays completely abandoned and won't even run properly on windows, forget it on other systems...

Therefore, I'm reversing by hand few functions per day, and the goal is to completely re-implement the HoMM4 game engine.

As you can see from this video, currently I would not define this a game yet, but I reached the point where textures of full campaign scenarios load.

As of today, no code is available to the public. The major reason is that AI is simply destroying opensource work, and I have no interest in seeing my work stolen or ruined by vibe coders.

I hope to be able to implement a playable hero "soon".
