Posts from IGZ is an alternative to Hamachi, Leaf, and similar programs.
In my opinion, we should switch to clients with automatic game launching (I had problems with automatic launching and playing on GameSpy) and automatic rating calculation. I suggest IGZ; if we can reach an agreement with them, it will be simply amazing.
Thoughts become reality. http://heroescommunity.com/viewthread.php3?TID=29182 Description. IGZ is a client similar to GameSpy. I played on it in Age of Empires for about six months, and this program performed excellently. Unlike GameSpy, it has no glitches. The formula for the alternative rating is completely copied from the rating on IGZ. In Age of Empires, the game launched automatically from the lobby, and after the game, the rating was calculated automatically. I think it will be the same in Heroes. It is easy to use and reliable. Pros. Up to 350-500 people can join the rooms. An external IP address is not required to play on IGZ. When playing through IGZ, the ping is much lower than with Hamachi. That is, you don't need a huge Hamachi list; you can easily play with foreigners, the search for opponents will be much faster, the data transfer rate will be 2-3 times faster, you won't have to wait for the rating to update, you will have a complete game history in your profile on the website, and you won't have to enter an IP address before entering the game. In short, it will completely eliminate the hassle. Suggestion. A user on HeroesCommunity said that we need to gather 50 votes, preferably with posts in the thread, and IGZ will create a room for Heroes. Those who understand the benefits of switching to IGZ, those who are not too lazy to spend 10 minutes registering on the site, those who believe that none of my ideas have ever been bad – register and vote here http://www.igzones.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=14932&hl=heroes Conclusion. I think that switching to IGZ will be comparable to the invention of electricity and the flight to the moon in terms of Heroes. Don't be lazy and vote – I guarantee you won't regret it!

Thanks, I'll try it, because Hamachi is really annoying.

If this program can save me from all the troubles that Hamachi causes, I'm all for it! :)

I registered, but the confirmation email didn't arrive. However, I can log in with my username, but then that topic isn't visible at all. It says: Sorry, the link that brought you to this page seems to be out of date or broken.

Pros. The lobbies will be able to accommodate up to 350-500 people.
You will be able to easily play with foreigners.
So, it's clear that the problem of finding an opponent will decrease.
But what about the rules? They play by completely different rules than we do....
And the templates are also different.
And if a normal game crash occurs (disconnection) (some kind of controversial situation) and someone is unhappy with it, how will it be resolved if neither of them speaks the other's language?

Guys, this program is needed for those who have a direct IP address. If the IP address is direct, you can connect to that person without Hamachi, without any emulating programs at all. However, if they create a separate and permanent room there, and it doesn't require an IP address, then the game is worth playing.

If you don't like their rules, you can only play with your own friends. Either way, the search will be much easier. You enter a room, look at the open games, join any one you like, and play.
Guys, this program is needed for those who have a direct IP.
See the first post, a direct IP is not required.
Only 3 people have tried it since yesterday evening. Well, if you don't want to spend 10 minutes to get rid of the hassle... then this topic isn't needed either.

I don't know how, but when I was reading, I read that the IP is required :p I guess I was reading what I wanted to read. If the program doesn't depend on the IP, then this makes sense :)
you don't need to enter the IP before entering the game.
and this, as far as I understand, depends only on the settings of network adapter priorities and firewalls, which may simply block this.

I don't know, in Heroes of Might and Magic Online, you just press the Launch button, and it takes you to the game settings selection window.

I'm not sure about Heroes of Might and Magic, but in Heroes of Might and Magic Online, you just press the Launch button, and it takes you to the game settings window.
I've already posted. I hope I won't be the only one. My English isn't great, but there are translators, right?

Only 3 people have voted since yesterday evening.
When I registered, there were only 12. Today there are 14. The activity isn't impressive; maybe I should ask the moderators to post an "announcement" on the forum with a link to this topic for a couple of days?
spend 10 minutes
Even less :)

To be honest, I still don't understand the point of looking for something better when we already have something good. We have two large Russian-language gaming websites, and the Gamers Private Network (GPN) has proven to be a great solution.
To be honest, I still don't understand the point of looking for something better when we already have something good. We have two large Russian-speaking gaming websites, and the GamersGate virtual network works perfectly well.
2? What do you mean by that? :) 1) If I understand correctly, the advantage of that network is a more convenient and faster way to find opponents... you don't have to search for opponents by their status in a chat program or message everyone with an offer; you just go into a room and see who's there and who has already created a game and is waiting for an opponent. 2) According to rumors, there are fewer bugs and crashes... it's more convenient, etc. 3) Automatic rating calculation + easy game statistics tracking 4) New people/opponents (foreigners, in short)
P.S. Yes, by the way, I voted... it's already 15/5.

All of this is true, but there's a small caveat: it's a very diverse group of people. Instead of awkwardly trying to communicate in English to discuss the details of rules and templates, we'll be clumsily searching for the right English words. And it wouldn't make sense to specifically look for players from World of Xeen or Portal, when both World of Xeen and Portal are already functioning perfectly well. It would be much better to create our own, Russian-speaking client, similar to a chess platform, where there are communities, rooms, tournaments, and an automatic rating system. All we need to do is pool resources from the entire Heroes community and create a technical specification for web developers.

When registering, you write HW or HP before your nickname, and it will immediately be clear where you're from.

Yeah, people can't even vote here, and you're suggesting something like that, lol.
