Regarding the IPH HydroTools plugin, it also works for the QGIS version 3.4.14 ‘Madeira’.

MGB model requires Quantum GIS in 64 bits version.
MGB model is a plugin which is added to Quantum GIS after the software has been installed in the computer. To install the MGB plugin in Quantum GIS, download the plugin in the provided link, then unpack the plugin file, so you should have a folder named “MGB”, and a sub-folder with all files related to MGB.
Afterwards, go to “\plugins” directory inside the folder in which Quantum GIS has been intalled. Usually, it is installed in the path: “C:\Users\.qgis\python”. Then, go to “plugins” folder. In case this folder doesn’t exist, you should create it.
Finally, paste the unpacked “MGB” folder inside the “plugins” folder. Same procedure for “IPH-hydrotools” folder.
