Now VCMI will use either preferred language or install language to load maps and campaigns that are part of "core" mod, or, in other words - placed in Maps directory of H3 data (like most of manually downloaded maps and campaigns are) If game data is in English, then game can safely use encoding of player- selected language (such as Chinese) to load maps. After all, both GBK and all Win-125X encoding are superset of ASCII, so English map will always load up correctly. Maps that are part of a mod still use mod language as before - it is up to mod maker to correctly set up mod language.

Latest release
Latest release can be found in Github Releases page. As of right now we plan to have major releases around 3 times per year. Daily builds are still available at builds.vcmi.download but they are not guaranteed to be stable. So we encourage everybody to use them and report found bugs so that we can fix them. Loading saves made with different major version of VCMI is usually not supported, so you may want to finish your ongoing games before updating. Please see corresponding installation guide articles for details for your platform.
