Reverse Engineering Might and Magic III Compression

Heh, this is a blast from the past. Back in the day Chris Lampton and I wrote a character editor for Might and Magic 3, and I was surprised to discover not long ago that it is still in use by MM3 fans. This is a program that was written in C++ in the early 90's if I recall correctly. http://shrines.rpgclassics.com/pc/mm3/downloads.shtml

I did a similar thing to a Mischief decompression algorithm.

Click on the link to the blog caused Super Anti-spyware to say a threat was detected. I recommend scanning if you already clicked it.

Avast warned be as well.

I can assure you, that those are false positives. I'm already trying to contact those AV companies to resolve this issue.

FYI, Avast and Emsisoft removed their detection.

Interesting that there is still an active mod scene. Good memories from the Might and Magic series, especially the later Windows versions 6-8 and the early Heros 2-3 off-spin series. I applied some mods and messed around with modding tool for MM6-8.
