Hello.

Is it possible, and if so, how can I choose the network adapter that the game uses/listens on for local network play?

We've encountered the following problem.
In the local network, the computers we want to play on are all in the same subnet, 192.168.0.1/24. We can see each other on the local network without any problems.

And each computer also has 2-4 network interfaces (both physical and virtual). For example:
10.0.1.1/24 - on one
10.0.22.1/24 - on another
10.0.333.1/24 - on a third

When Heroes is launched, the server stubbornly waits for clients through the virtual interface 10.0.1.1/24.

To make the game start listening on the common local network 192.168.0.1/24, we have to disable the 10.0.1.1/24 interface and restart the game.

Is there a way to hardcode which network interface to use?
Routing traffic through the internet seems silly when we're all on the same local network.
You need to configure network connection priorities. Google how to do it.

Where can I view the timer settings during the game?

In order for the game to start looking at the general local network 192.168.0.1/24, you need to disable the 10.0.1.1/24 interfaces and restart the game.

Set the metric for the 192.168.0.0/24 network manually to 1, and for others, set it to any value higher than that.

For some reason, I can no longer join a session created on a local computer (in another running instance of the game: new-multi-tsp/ip). Previously, the game was immediately visible; now, even searching by IP address doesn't yield any results. Is it working normally for everyone else?

I was playing on HD 5.0 RC 48, and everything was fine.
In one instance, I create a server (new-multi-tcp/ip),
in another instance, I join, the server is immediately visible, and everything works normally.

Why does Virustotal show 1/69?!

Is it possible to use the HD mod in Heroes of Might and Magic Online to allow viewing the opponent's turn in progress, similar to how it's implemented in Heroes of Might and Magic VII?

When loading a single-player game?
No, for example: it's red's turn, and it hasn't ended yet. You're playing as blue and want to see the movement of red's heroes, not during your turn, but during red's turn.

Yesterday, there were problems with logging in. They released update rc49. But it doesn't install. I launch the game. A window with the update appears. When I click, it seems to start downloading, but then the update window pops up again. And it repeats many times. Then, in the end, it says that you have the latest version. But when I launch it again, everything repeats. Please help.

Hota 1.5.4 + HD mod 5.0RC50. When selecting the classic timer, the option "start timer after taking a turn" does not work – the time counts down until a turn is taken.

The keyboard layout keeps switching to English. Is this happening only to me, or is it a common problem?
RaverUPS, it's a feature. Use the 0+8+59 chess layout.

That's how it's supposed to work. It's the classic version, so it functions as such.

I clearly remember that in previous versions of the HD mod with HWrules, there was an option to choose when to start the timer after taking a turn. It became inconvenient to play.

This mod is driving me crazy. When I play/type in Russian, the keyboard layout keeps switching to English, and when I type in English, it switches to Russian. Is this happening to everyone else? It's really annoying.

Hello, everyone. As far as I remember, the HD mod included a patch to reduce CPU load. Currently, it consistently uses 25-30% of my i5, sometimes up to 60%, and the cursor occasionally starts to lag, which leads to misclicks. Is this due to my computer or the mod? It seems a bit suspicious...
