Hey, I just tried your reskin mod (with years passing I like RoH style more and more... that's what called senility ) but it doesn't seem to work.
I removed (backed up) the old folders, copied everything that is needed to the game folder but at first game refuses to run saying it can't create animated cursor. Then I set -wincursor argument to the EXE, games starts, shows the main menu, I can choose a campaign or a scenario but game drops to desktop after I push PLAY. The error log gives nothing clear to know the reason for the error. I use the patched ISO version with No-CD 1.02, and I run it on WinXP just perfectly (safe for the music issue, of course). |

Using Win 8.1 and yes you have to use that wincursor argument there.
A WinXP install? I have ROH and ROH runs fine Iso style. Have not tried DLR with Win XP, I shall give it a go, it might be a few days though. Thanks for the report. =============================== |

No problem found
OK I got a chance to test it. Using the DLR download from the last Citadel.ru, since it was quick an easy to setup. I unzipped it set up a shortcut for wincursor unzipped the Warlords DLR Reign of Heroes Reskin into it and it ran normally. No issues I tried it in different resolutions and it ran everytime without issue(played a few turns on both campaign maps and scenarios, must say a relief from getting bogged down in Hearts of Iron 4). Beautiful ROH style windows I then tried it WITHOUT wincursor argument and it worked as well without issue I did not receive that cannot create animated cursor error. Worked just fine Using WinXP on another computer Not sure why the error appears on your machine or why it cannot run... --Try it on the lastCitadel.ru version. No cd option/ability for music though. --A thought, maybe the CD is not copying all its files. --Or if you backed up each file manually, instead just try making a copy of the entire DLR folder then overwriting it with the reskin folders unzipped into the main DLR fldr, because that error gives clue maybe the file for the animated cursors is missing /not found and that file has other things the game uses which will crash the game if it cannot find it. |

FYI Tried it on the GOG version, but even without anything at all being added, the GOG version will not run under Win XP.
Under Windows 8.1 (presumably 7 and 10, what GOG states the game is compatible for) adding this Reign of Heroes reskin, building alteration and unit and hero modifications (as described in other threads) work just fine. Wincursor argument does not work in the GOG version and may not be needed because of the way GOG fixed the game to work on those OS's. |

Well, everything seems working now. I just copied the whole W3 folder to another location and paste the modded folders there, just as you advised, thanks.
Now it's a good occasion to replay the Banewars campaign in 'new' old graphic set! |
