Free Heroes of Might and Magic II (fheroes2) General Announcements

fheroes2 is an open source recreation of the original game, built to be cross-platform and without the limitations of original engine. The project roadmap is defined in milestones, each having its own goals. 1.0 version will be a full faithful remake with modern multiplayer, high resolution support and improved AI. Fheroes2 was originally hosted on SourceForge back in the day. The original developer stopped project development around 2016 leaving it in a half-finished state. That's why it is a "continuation", picking up where the project was left, fixing and upgrading what is needed.

In the past months our team released few updates:
- 0.8.1 version (latest) contains a new rendering engine to address many issues with graphics and more than 50 bugs fixed.
- 0.8 version is a major release where we fixed most of UI issues in the game with more than 200 bugs fixed.
- 0.7 version where we resurrected the project, setup compilation on all major OSes, fixed most of game's crashes and a bunch of bugs. Here we established our future priorities and strategy in developing.

Dear players and fans of Heroes of Might and Magic II.

We're pleased to announce a new release of fheroes2 - 0.8.1 version. We decided to make an intermediate version as we made a huge rework on graphics: we developed a new rendering engine which fixes all major graphical issues such as incorrect Air Elemental or Resurrection Spell drawings, shadows and fonts.
