HoMM3 HD - Releases and updates.

I will release a beta version within a week with password-protected saves/RMG maps (!) and alliance settings.
I have very little time for development right now, and I don't know if I'll manage it, but I'll try to add path selection to this beta.

Changes compared to beta 6:
[-] Mod bug that prevented the AI from finding the Grail
[-] Graphical mod bug - cursor trail in 32-bit MMX mode
[-] Mod bug: when starting a new scenario, right-clicking on the Ally/Enemy flags displayed incorrect information
[+] (only when Tournament Module is enabled!) the ability to manually configure alliances before starting a scenario. (random alliance placement is not available when generating a random map)
[-] (only when Tournament Module is enabled!) original bug with the information about alliances (Allies/Enemies) not being updated when switching tabs (new/random/already generated) when starting a new scenario
[ ] (only when Tournament Module is enabled!) in a network game, the client does not have access to the map generator settings buttons and there is no 'Show Random Maps' button
[ ] if the host is HD mod beta 8 + Tournament Module enabled, then the client without HD mod beta 9 + Tournament Module will not be able to connect, both will receive a notification, but the reverse is possible: HD mod beta 9 + Tournament Module enabled connects as a client to any version 3.2/4.0, but in this case the game is played according to the host's rules.

[+][!] (only when Tournament Module is enabled!) Password-protected saves/maps:
When starting a game with Tournament Module enabled and the Protected Saves option selected, players enter passwords (each one is different, from 0 to 8 characters) -
random maps are generated with passwords, and all saves are password-protected.
To start playing such a map again, and to load such a save, you must enter the correct passwords (and enable the Protected Saves option), otherwise the game will report an incorrect password and crash.
It will not be possible to open a password-protected map in the editor. In non-HD 3.0 beta 9 + Tournament Module, password-protected maps and saves will simply not be visible.

Saves and maps are password-protected by being packed (unfortunately, that's how it is for now), so it will not be possible to create a small group archive from such saves.
I hope to fix this in the future. I will also strengthen the protection of password-protected saves in the future.

You can configure alliances by clicking the [Team Agreements] button next to the [show additional options] button
You can select HD game options and enter a password by clicking the [more options..] button (where the [Wog Options] button is sometimes located)
If the player does not click [more options..] at the start, the options window will pop up automatically (to start the game, you will need to click start again).

Path selection, level 2, and autosaves are not yet available - I haven't had time to implement them.
