this is still not well tested, so mail me on any problems: j.schauer@email.de place your heroes of might and magic complete files in the same directory as hr.py and extractor.py * H3bitmap.lod * H3ab_bmp.lod * H3sprite.lod * H3ab_spr.lod * Heroes3.snd * H3ab_ahd.snd * VIDEO.VID * H3ab_ahd.vid open the commandline and navigate to this directory python extractor.py it will find itself the files above and extract them into a new data directory. the process will take half an hour due to heavy image manipulations which are very slow in python. The output will be around half a gigabyte. then place some scenario file in the maps folder and start heroes renaissance with a command like: python hr.py "A Viking We Shall Go"
