Also, in the Stronghold, you can check the box for simplified graphics mode, so if the original game runs on your system, Stronghold should run as well.
Just don't laugh at my computer: Pentium(R)-2.6, RAM-512mb, Geforce 5200 with 128mb is enough for the minimum settings at a screen resolution of 1024x768, but not with simplified graphics :D

By the way, as I noticed, Heroes has quite high CPU requirements. I have an Athlon X2 6000+, and both cores are loaded almost to the maximum (around 80-90%, but it often goes up to 100%) constantly. I monitored it with RivaTuner. Of course, such a powerful CPU is not necessary for comfortable gameplay; an Athlon 4200 or a Pentium D would probably be sufficient (this is just an estimate), but still, the faster the CPU, the faster the results of autobattles, AI moves, etc., will be calculated.

Graphics are certainly good, and it’s enjoyable to play the game and see the intricate details of the creatures’ appearance, but I don’t think that’s the most important thing. What captivates me is the process itself (tactics for developing attacks, strategies for building in a given situation, etc.). Once, I played the very first demo version of Heroes 5 with 256 MB of RAM. Everything unfolded according to the following scenario: :smile33: :smile35: :smile07: :smile10: :smile19:. In short, it was a complete disaster.

P.S. I only have 64 MB of video memory – GeForce3 Ti 200.

In my opinion, the good graphics contribute to the atmosphere, and good sound is also very important. However, long loading times are very distracting, so a good computer is needed for an "immersive" Heroes experience. Although, at the beginning, I played the 5th installment on a Radeon 9600XT 128MB, 512MB of RAM, and a Sempron 2800, and I was simply thrilled with the graphics. (On small maps, I set the quality to high, on large maps to medium, without anti-aliasing).

By the way, does anyone else experience sudden frame rate drops for no apparent reason? I have a top-of-the-line graphics card, and the latest drivers and DirectX. Plus, the game lags a lot due to the effects. But the Crysis demo runs fine on high settings!

As I understand it, will there be no more expansions?

It doesn't seem like there will be... And the game is really demanding; on my fairly fast computer (dual-core, 2GB of RAM, Radeon 2600), it noticeably lags during battles on the highest difficulty level... :(

I have a Radeon 9600 Pro, 128 MB, a 3 GHz processor, and 1 GB of RAM. I can set a lower resolution and the highest quality settings – it won’t lag, but it will take a long time to load things like castles, battles, etc. Moreover, the difference in graphics won’t even be noticeable to the naked eye.
Since there will be no more add-ons, we can only wait for that swampy creation in the neighboring thread...

I finished the game, and it's interesting that it noticeably slows down only in the first battle with the dwarves (the last level, which is also the most difficult):D. Otherwise, it's easy to complete, and Biara surrenders without any problems! Especially if you take a book with black magic!!! You cast vampirism on some Angels and... :smile16: Vampirism and mind control, the coolest magic!

I have an AthlonXP 2000+, 256*2 DDR2 RAM, ATI Radeon 9600 128 MB, and I play at 1024*768 with half anti-aliasing – everything else is maxed out. On small and medium-sized maps, the computer barely lags, but on large maps, there is some lag, not to mention XXL maps. Question: Will 1 GB (or 2 GB) of RAM help solve the problem?
Auto-translated
It should help on large maps. And I would advise reducing the graphics settings. At least to medium. (on large maps)

2 GB will definitely solve it. Although, if you're using XP, 1 GB should be enough.

So, I'll wait until the New Year:D

I don't know, on my configuration (Athlon 4400, 1GB of RAM, GeForce 8600 GT) on Windows XP, it stutters on large maps (although only when the camera is set to its highest setting). But on medium-sized maps, everything runs smoothly, so 1GB should be enough, but it's right on the edge.

It’s on the disc with the licensed game.
Sorry if the question seems silly, but where is it (the skill wheel) on the disc?
Downloading 2.5 MB is too much for me; I can’t carry that many in my pocket.
