This topic is created specifically for those who want to play Heroes of Might and Magic III online with friends. In the Hamachi Usage Guide, you will find all the necessary information regarding online play. Here, I have also posted the program itself, but it is better to download it from the official website: http://www.hamachi.cc/download/list.php For any questions, please write either in this topic or send me a private message. Here is the new version of Hamachi, don't forget to update.

The connection via Hamachi was established without any problems. But the problem is different: I have the Platinum Edition, version 4.00, and my gaming partner has version 3.1. As I understand it, it can only be patched up to 3.2. Will they be compatible after that, or do I need to buy an older version of the game?
Platinum 3.2 connects without any problems!!! Problems arise if someone has a mixed (dirty) version, for example, a version mixed with Wog!!! So, if you have Platinum and he upgrades to 3.2, you can play without any issues!!! Tested!!!

Is it in Russian? What are the differences? What was added?
Yes, of course, it is in Russian. The differences aren't noticeable at first glance, but I can say that some details have been refined, and the protection of the local network has been improved. You can read more on the official website.

We gathered to play together as a group of four! We all downloaded the latest versions of Hamachi! But no one could connect until we reinstalled the old versions! I still don't understand what the problem was?! Any ideas?

You know, I'm even hesitant to answer, because in my case, the people I couldn't play with in the previous version can now connect without any issues. There aren't many possible solutions, and the main one is that you were just unlucky, or Hamachi's server had a restart.

Hello everyone. I just registered and decided to play. My question is:
1. What is the latest version?
2. I downloaded the Hamachi program and have a question: if I don't know the password and the name of the created game, will I be unable to connect to anyone? In Starcraft, there's something like a chat, and next to it, a button to join or create. There, it's easy to connect to someone or simply agree to play with someone without any hassle.

so, check R2AS: the latest version is 4.0 (Platinum Series). Hamachi is not a game, but an emulator (!) for a local network; Heroes also has a chat (but it seems you're not talking about that). ICQ is not that complicated, and it's actually more convenient... in this thread, many people have already contacted each other and want to play... get in touch with them... P.S. Guys, you're great for registering!!! but please have some consideration, read the various topics on the subject you're interested in first, and only then, when you haven't found an answer to your question after days and nights of searching, ask... the same questions are asked over and over again... it's annoying :(

I've been trying for a long time to find information about the game online, specifically one with autobattle disabled. I play The Shadow of Death from Buka with a friend online, using Hamachi. We played with autobattle enabled, but we still want to fight each other in real-time. Is this possible? If we disable autobattle in the options, the game freezes. Does this depend on the version? How can I fix this? And another question: how can I find out the version of the installed game?

It might be some kind of bug. It can't be due to version incompatibility; if the versions weren't compatible, you simply wouldn't be able to connect. If a battle takes place between two players, even if the autobattle option is enabled, you will fight without it, i.e., in normal mode. This is just my opinion; I might be wrong.
How to check the game version? I don't know. I can't figure it out myself. I had version 3.0; I checked this in the options of the hero icons in the game folder on the "version" tab. Then I patched it to 3.2, but nothing changed there. Maybe it's supposed to be like that?

Indeed... auto-battles and regular battles are not the cause of the computer freezing... try reinstalling the game or installing it from a licensed disc...
Regarding the version... you can check it in the properties of the main file (in the Heroes folder, the game launch file)... or by using this information: The Restoration of Erathia is 3.0; Armageddon's Blade is 3.1; The Shadow of Death is 3.2; Platinum Collection is 4.0....
Quaker - it seems that the patch had this effect... essentially, you have The Shadow of Death, but the patch didn't change anything in the properties...

NO! I have both SoD 3.1 and SoD 3.2 installed! The information is incorrect.....

No... I mean it in the sense that you claim Erathia is 3.0, Blade is 3.1 and so on.. but in response, I'm telling you that 3.0, 3.1 and 3.2 are versions of SoD, and they have nothing to do with Blade or Erathia! That's what I meant... Now, Platinum really is 4.0 — no objections there.
