In my opinion, 3.2 and 4.0 are the versions of the "Heroes 3" executable (3.2 - The Shadow of Death, 4.0 - Complete Collection). It's likely that you and your opponent have different versions.
Well, I downloaded it from heroes3.tv, probably like everyone else. I checked, and I also have 4.0.0.0.
And the game doesn't complain about the game version, but about the hotfix. If I disable the hotfix completely, it lets me log in, but I don't know what will happen during the game; I haven't checked. I don't want to play without the hotfix.
The fact that this issue pops up no matter who I log in with clearly indicates that the problem is on my end, but I can't figure out what I need to fix :D

Nope, I tried both through the launcher and via the created exe directly, something else is broken...
Judging by the screenshot, this time you have hvrules 1.40 connected, but the other side does not. That is the problem.
But yes, the message is not informative. It especially confuses newcomers — they start worrying about what version 3.2 and 4.0 are.
(3.2 - SoD, 4.0 - Complete; they are fully compatible and connect if the same hvrules is connected to them, or if nothing is connected)

if anyone else encounters this problem.
The issue was with the HotA version. Currently, different resources have different HotA versions, and there isn't one definitive, up-to-date version. Some have 1.36, 1.38, 1.38.2, or 1.40. Basically, you can install them all at once and switch between them depending on the "requirements" of your opponent.
Thanks to everyone who helped with advice.

When will the mod learn to either sort the save folders (by date, name) or at least display them in the correct (alphabetical) order? I recently tried it, and it's a complete mess – you have to rummage around like a blind puppy.

Guys, how do I launch the WOG version of Heroes in windowed mode? I don't have that button. Is there some kind of tweak?

In the last game with FTS, it turned out that during simultaneous turns, we both bought the same artifact from the artifact merchant on the same day. Blue thus obtained it unfairly and used it until the end of the game.

Yes, indeed, this is possible in the case of the town's merchant; it's strange that in the three years of Heroes of Might and Magic Online's existence, no one reported this before.

Apparently, this is because during the Heroes of Might and Magic Online period, there usually aren't enough resources to buy artifacts yet.

Probably because during the early game, there usually aren't enough resources to buy artifacts.
And to build a merchant!

However, casual players still set up outposts up to 999 OH. Although, they probably don't care about such a double purchase.

In this regard, another question has worried me. If players in Heroes of Might and Magic Online each play their own game and only exchange information at the end of their turn, how is it that they don't find the same heroes in the tavern? It would be logical to assume that the hero pool is simply divided in half. If so, is the division algorithm known? Is it possible to understand which heroes I can hire and which I cannot?

This raises another question for me. If players in HotA play their own game and only exchange information at the end of their turn, how is it that they don't find the same heroes in the tavern?

Yes, the pool is divided by the number of players.
And it seems to work quite clearly here.

Heroes are divided randomly so that there are approximately an equal number of heroes of each class and approximately an equal number of heroes in total.
(if the number of available heroes of one class is odd, then they will be divided between two players in favor of one player, and then the next class with an odd number of heroes will be divided in favor of the other player. That is, the total number of heroes may differ by a maximum of 1 hero)
Heroes are shuffled in this (random) way every turn.

In short, it is impossible to predict which hero will be available and which will not during HotA.

I can't update the mod. I tried through the lobby and in-game. It gives a message saying that I have the latest version, but that is not the case. SoD

Try again.

In general, for any update problems, you can always update manually by downloading the full version from the site and installing it over what you already have: https://sites.google.com/site/heroes3hd/rus/download

Could you please explain why the project is not available on GitHub? According to the author, the amount of work has already exceeded the capabilities of one person. So why not allow other enthusiasts to create their own PRs and report bugs in the project itself?
