Recommendations
- In campaigns, hire your own leader, do not use the one given by the story. Other leaders are transferred between acts, and they are able to complete the whole story. This changes the approach and adds interest to the walkthrough;
- In campaigns, do not use Inoel and Hashim, it is doable without them even on hard mode.
- Use the lord "Mage". The rest of the lords are noticeably weaker, and it's pointless to play with them on hard mode. D3 Remastered is designed to use this lord only.
- Use more heroes at the same time (especially in pvp and with thieves);
- If you are planning to make your Empire mage leader a healer – do not put any points into dexterity, it does nothing for healing;
- It is often easier to buy a new thief than to resurrect the one for the gold;
- Use spells and runes properly, create runes in advance;
- Play with units’ voices on, it is way livelier;
- Use Steam version of the game (tested with v1.03 only);
- Use reshade with Sharpen and Colorfulness effects (it adds colors and more details to the world);
- If you see a defect, write it down at once. Later you’ll forget about it;
- Use Remastered Videos with Russian voice (more emotions);
- Use Remastered Voices with Russian voice (more emotions);
- Add the next lines to user.ini file in "Documents\My Games\Disciples Reincarnation\":
float ArenaCameraRotMax = 6.000000;
It allows the camera to rotate fully around during battles.
Installation
- Download both archives listed in the main files;
- Copy “D3 Remastered Eng.vdpack” file to “…\Documents\My Games\DisciplesReincarnation\Mods“ folder;
- Copy “D3 Maps Remastered.vdpack” file to “…\Documents\My Games\DisciplesReincarnation\Maps“ folder;
- Copy “system” folder to the root folder of the game (Steam default path is…\Steam\steamapps\common\Disciples III Rebirth\), overwrite everything(!);
- Copy DisciplesIII.exe (the file has been approved by the Nexus team, u can find it here or in version 1.0 of the mod) to the root folder of the game (Steam default path is …\Steam\steamapps\common\Disciples III Rebirth\), overwrite the existing file;
- Copy “logo.bmp” to the root folder of the game (Steam default path is …\Steam\steamapps\common\DisciplesIII Rebirth\), overwrite the existing file. Or rename existing “logo.bmp” and you get simple black screen when the game starts;
- Start the game – go to “Settings” – “Expansions” – activate “D3 Remastered Eng” and "D3 Maps Remastered" mods;
- Restart the game;
- Play and have fun! A new game is a must. All game modes/types are supported, the mod can be used with 3rd party maps but not with other mods.
If you have any doubts about the .exe file - do not use it. In that case do not copy dcsarenaex.ini and system.ini files from 'system' folder of the mod and use the default Steam .exe. Some features will not work though.
