====What to expect working in VCMI?====
 
Almost everything from original game. If something isn't - it's better to report on our [http://bugs.vcmi.eu bugtracker].
 
 
 
====Can I play VCMI on my Android device?====
 
Yes. There is an official package at Google Play and here is an [https://wiki.vcmi.eu/Installation_on_Android instruction] for installation.
 
 
 
====Do I need to install WoG to play VCMI?====
 
No. VCMI has it's own port of WoG mod available from Launcher. We recommend to install VCMI over fresh SoD / Complete versions.
 
 
 
==== What does "VCMI" stand for? ====
 
VCMI is an acronym of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quenya Quenya] phrase "Vinyar Callor Meletya Ingole", meaning "New Heroes of Might and Magic". ([https://forum.vcmi.eu/t/what-vcmi-stands-for/297/4 Source])
 
 
 
== Game options ==
 
====How can I change screen resolution?====
 
Start any scenario, open System Options dialog and click "High" button.
 
 
 
In case only 800x600 is available, close VCMI, download this [https://www.dropbox.com/sh/fwor43x5xrgzx6q/AABpTFqGK7Q9almbyr3hp9jma/mods/vcmi.zip file] which contains the “bonusIcons” and “extraResolutions” repertories. Unzip, and place them in XXX (Windows), YYY (Android), ZZZ (Mac) or ~/.local/share/vcmi/Mods (Linux). Then start any scenario, open System Options dialog and voilà, other resolutions than 800x600 are availables.
 
 
 
Note that you need to restart VCMI for the change to take effect.
 
 
 
====How to turn off creature queue panel in battles?====
 
Hotkey to switch this panel is "Q" during battle or in "System options", "Battle" tab.
 
 
 
====Can I turn off some WoG features that I don't like?====
 
Yes. Take a look on config/defaultMods.json file and edit it to your liking.
 
 
 
Note to Linux users: this file can be found in vcmi data directory (run vcmiclient -v to see path). It can be copied into ~/.vcmi/config/ to avoid editing file usually owned by root.
 
 
 
 
 
== Mods ==
 
====Is it possible to add town X to vcmi?====
 
This depends on town authors or anyone else willing to port it to vcmi. Aim of VCMI is to provide ''support'' for such features.
 
 
 
 
 
====Where can I find mods for VCMI?====
 
Check [[Modding_guidelines#For_players]] page
