TOURNAMENT RULES

1. To participate in the first offline tournament, you must register on our website www.heroesworld.ru and also submit an application in this thread
2. The tournament is held on the Russian version of Heroes 5
3. Game version 1.0

P.S. In such a case (detection of cheating), the player will be required to send additional saves and provide a walkthrough description to determine whether the play was unfair or fair.
The result of a player who played unfairly will be voided and their reputation on our site will be "morale down"!

1st mirror
2nd mirror

1. The save that will be posted on our site (19.06.06) must be downloaded and placed on your computer in the following folder C:\Documents and Settings\VDV_forever\My Documents\My Games\Heroes of Might and Magic V\Profiles\VDV_forever\Saves[br][/br]2. Naturally, everyone has their own nickname, so in each individual case it will be approximately: C:\Documents and Settings\X\My Documents\My Games\Heroes of Might and Magic V\Profiles\X\Saves[br][/br>where X is simply the name under which you usually play
3. Load 19.06.06_offline.sav and start playing, making daily saves.
4. After reaching the final action (after which victory occurs), save again.
5. With the final save, describe this last step in detail (most likely a battle); then the results will be tallied faster and there will be fewer suspicions of cheating!!!
6. Send this save to the specified address (in the rules of this tournament).
7. Wait for the results.

^_^ I got lucky again; I think I wrote a detailed description. Try following my instructions, and you'll see that there's nothing unfair about this solution.

It's definitely possible to complete it in just over three weeks. I realized this based on my own result, taking into account the final battle and the path I had already explored in the dark. :)

So, I personally don't understand why they would even consider reviewing the save file.
No, but that's okay with you :D What do I have to do with it? :D

I was even messing around, opening the red tent, then running through the fountain of magic doubling, and then I returned and took two gold mines near the first Elven fortress, and only then did I go forward to the second Elven fortress. Who needs my stupid description!
:D :D :D
Where I easily lose a week because I played this map for the first time and knew that I wouldn't have time to replay it.

I finished the description of the first week :) Judge, maybe I should send it to you in parts; maybe you'll get tired of reading my walkthrough in the description of the second week, and you'll accept my save file???

Just arrived. I'm shocked by the arguments that have arisen.
1) Regarding 2 IronAxe, the rules stated that the organizer could request a description, and he did. What's the problem? If you don't want to write it, don't submit it, and your save won't be counted. Let's compare them for fun.
2) Regarding the bug with the Druids, you need to play through the entire map properly, not take advantage of the fact that you know everything. Otherwise, you'll win in a couple of days. However, considering that this wasn't specified in the rules, it can be forgiven for the first time.

P.S. I would be happy to read a walkthrough from those who completed the map in less than a month. If it's not too much trouble, please send it to my email or message me.

1) 2 IronAxe - the rules stated that the organizer could request a description, and he did, so what is the problem? If you don't want to write it, don't send it and your save will not be counted; just compare for interest.

Quote this point verbatim from the rules. He could actually demand a description of six months of a Walkthrough. Everyone already knows that I finished in exactly 28 days and my result is far-far-far from being the best - so why the hell does he need my description?

Since it's like this, he himself gave a deadline until the 14th in the thread. So let him not rush. If I manage to write it sooner - I'll send it sooner, but so far I've only managed to describe the first week and 2-3 days of the second. The thing is that I'm a graphomaniac, so if I start writing, I write in great detail, plus sometimes to what is relevant, I add a lot of irrelevant stuff, like jokes and gags :D

1) By the way, regarding mission 5, there's one guess:
If you capture all the castles first and then defeat Gilraen, mission 5 will start immediately, but if you do it the other way around, mission 4 will start. I think this bug was described on the Nival forum.
2) By the way, here's another bug: if you defeat the druids who are standing in a ring before capturing the Southern Elven castle, it will be impossible to complete the mission.

The first bug is incorrect. I finished it exactly like that (all castles -> Gilraen), and mission 4 started.
The second one isn't significant; even if it's true, it's not a big deal. It takes too much time to get to the druids and then head south. You probably won't make it in a month...

VDV_forever

Your save has already been counted!!! I think I already wrote about this;
So, there's nothing more to do. Wait for the final results. :)
Sincerely, VDV_forever

I, like Khodo from Fya, apparently misunderstood your message :) I'm eagerly awaiting the results.
You have a difficult job, dear VDV_Forever :) I don't envy you....

VDV_forever

After all, in the first case, the mission is still completed, but in the second case, it is not, so I cannot credit such a save, even if I wanted to. But on the other hand...
In general, what do you think, users, should I credit this save or not???Sincerely, VDV_forever

I think not! :D Just kidding.
It's difficult for us users to judge... I don't even fully understand what the bug is, IMHO. If the mission isn't completed, it means something hasn't been done => the mission hasn't been completed. Where is the checkbox missing? You could do this: announce preliminary results and post shoot-nick's save and descriptions for public discussion. When everyone understands what the error is and who is wrong, then discuss it... It's all IMHO, of course.
We're waiting for your decision and the results.

:D

You see, our tournament is only happening for the first time, so the rule regarding additional information may not be ideal, but its meaning is clear: if a player is suspected of cheating, additional saves with a detailed description of each day may be required (basically, something like that). After the tournament, this point may be revised.

As for the time you have to submit the description, I think the esteemed VDV_FOREVER will make the most appropriate decision.

The judge has already made a decision, and it would look bad if he started changing it. I am providing an excerpt from this topic in case you cannot scroll back a few pages.

P.S. Almost all saves have been reviewed, except for 2! I will look at and evaluate them tomorrow.
P.S.S. Players to whom I sent a request must submit the description by July 14! I hope you have enough time.
If I don't receive it, your save will not be counted and will be considered a cheat!!!
P.S.S.S. It is also necessary to send a VERY detailed description of the walkthrough of the tournament map to the following players:
Iron Axe
Shoot-nick

Sincerely, VDV_forever
---

See, a very detailed description is required. And it is not done quickly. This requires loading each save, looking at how the Hero's stats change, what losses are incurred in battles, etc., and remembering a lot from memory!

fanat

P.S. I suggest counting the results that raise doubts as preliminary and requesting descriptions two or three days before the final results are announced.

And here I absolutely agree with you. So as not to keep everyone waiting because of me, let them post the preliminary results today. I promise to be able to submit the description within the time frame previously set by the judge. I can send the description in parts, if the judge wishes. Perhaps after reading the description, the judge will understand in 1 or 2 weeks that everything is fine with the walkthrough. Then the final results will be published earlier.

You see, our tournament is only being held for the first time, so the rule regarding additional information may not be perfect, but its meaning is clear: if a player is suspected of cheating, they may be required to provide additional save files with a detailed description of each day (basically, something like that). After the tournament, this rule may be refined.

You understand, it turns out that only fast results are being suspected of cheating, but why not suspect slow results?! I'm exaggerating. One player completed it in 2 months, another in 3. Both are far from the prize-winning places, but maybe the one who completed it in 2 months was cheating unsuccessfully, and wouldn't the one who completed it honestly in three months feel bad? I suggest refining the rule regarding the announcement of results and checks. Fanat, browse the topic; my suggestion is there. The essence is that the preliminary results should be announced immediately after the submission of save files. At the same time, a list of players who must send additional materials for verification should be published, indicating WHO and WHAT specific materials are required. These players must confirm their willingness to fulfill these requirements within the time frame set by the judge. And only after that will the final results be announced.
This is practically the same as what you write in your post. I personally am in favor of this.

I, too, like Х®одо from Фы®а, apparently misunderstood your message :) I am looking forward to the results.
You have a difficult task, dear VDV_Forever :) I don't envy you....

On the contrary, I understood everything perfectly - shoot-nick and IronAxe were supposed to provide a detailed description, since after mission 3, they have mission 5. Presumably, this is due to a violation of the championship rules (cheats or a patched game, or maybe something else). But I know one person who also has mission 5 after mission 3. He definitely didn't use cheats. You can simply ask him how he completed the mission, compare it with shoot-nick's and IronAxe's walkthroughs, and draw certain conclusions, which may mean that these people will not have to provide a description.

VDV_forever

Why are you so worried? Everything is fine with you! Your save has also been counted :)! Wait for the final results!

Sincerely, VDV_forever

And I'm not worried. :D I think I did everything right, I even took a screenshot of the battle with Gilraen out of boredom. :rolleyes:

IronAxe

Do you understand that it turns out that only fast results are suspected of cheating, but why not suspect slow ones!? I'm exaggerating. One completed it in 2 months, the other in 3. Both are far from the prize-winning places, but maybe the one who completed it in 2 months cheated unsuccessfully, and wouldn't the one who completed it honestly in three months feel bad about it? I suggest improving the announcement of results and checks. Fanat, look through the topic, there is my suggestion. The essence is this - the preliminary results should be announced immediately after the acceptance of saves. At the same time, a list of players who need to send additional materials for verification, indicating WHO and WHAT exactly materials. These players must confirm their willingness to fulfill these requirements within the time frame set by the judge. And after that, the final results will be announced.
This is almost the same as you write in your post. I personally am in favor of such a thing.

Well said - cheated unsuccessfully. :p And what does "additional materials for verification, indicating WHO and WHAT exactly materials" mean? How will VDV forever know where a person cheated? Therefore, the phrase "certain materials" sounds unconvincing. To accurately say that cheats were not used, you need to check the uploaded battle log - are there too many units, too much money, does the hero move too far in a day, etc. And if nothing causes doubts, then you can talk about the absence of cheats.

What does "additional materials for verification, specifying WHO and WHAT materials" mean? How is VDV forever supposed to know where a player cheated? Therefore, the phrase "specific materials" sounds unconvincing. To accurately state that no cheats were used, you need to check the recorded battle log - are there too many units, too much money, is the hero moving too far in a single day, etc. And if nothing raises doubts, then you can say that no cheats were used.

I've already written about this. Let's say that from the 1st to the 3rd submissions, a full description of the game is provided. From the 4th and 5th, only screenshots and a description of the final battle are provided. I understand that you can't check everyone. And in this case, players don't know what place their save can potentially achieve without any preliminary information. The judge determines the criteria for who should write the description and forces the specified people to write a lengthy text. If he announced preliminary results, the player would decide for himself whether it's worth fighting for that place and writing a description. He has an alternative solution: to refuse to write a description and withdraw his save from the tournament. I don't know how many people completed it faster than 28 days. If, let's say, there are more than 10, I would withdraw my save just to avoid writing a description. But if there are only 3, I would gladly write a description to secure 4th place. But here, the judge tells me - if you want to write it, if you don't want to, it's up to you. If you don't write it, the save is considered cheating and is removed from the tournament. In my opinion, this is not right! I don't know what I should strive for and spend days writing a description for?! Just to please L.N. Tolstoy? :) Doesn't anyone think that someday they will find themselves in a similar situation? Would you like your result if you don't know your preliminary place, and you are asked to provide a detailed description day by day? And, to make matters worse, you won't have free time in real life. That's when you'll start to worry. But in this case, you probably won't be supported by anyone, except for me, of course. So, this point needs to be discussed in advance before the next tournament! And even if you don't have free time, but in the preliminary results, you see yourself in 1st place, you will probably find the time to write a description at night (now not like L.N. Tolstoy, but like V.I. Lenin!). :)

The first bug is incorrect. I finished exactly like that (all Castles -> Gilraen) and I get the 4th mission.

But I did it like this (2 Castles, Druids, 3rd Castle, Gilraen) and they say that I get the 5th mission. I think that shoot-nick played in a similar sequence. And I really managed to complete it in a month and see that if I replay it, I can complete it even faster using the same scheme. It turns out that you didn't eliminate the Druids. In that case, my question is, why does your mission end if not all the conditions of the map are met? The question of what mission comes next in light of this question is already secondary. In our case with shoot-nick, everything is completed ON THIS MAP. And I don't care what mission comes next.

Supreme

It takes too much time to go to the Druids and then south. You probably won't even have time in a month...

Not probably, but DEFINITELY, it can be completed in a month. And there is clearly a margin of about a week or a little less! shoot-nick claims that he is playing on an unpatched, licensed version. Does anyone know how to tell the difference between a patched and an unpatched version? I have "Version 1.0" written in italic, slanted font on the left of the main menu on my main screen. Is this correct? I understand that on a patched version, there should be some letter after 1.0. Can anyone explain this clearly?

What about my save file? Or rather, what about my walkthrough? I've replied twice in private messages and sent an email, but I still haven't received a response.

The patch updates the game to version 1.1.
