Posts from HW portal’s attitude towards unofficial patches and add-ons.
Could you tell me where I can find unofficial add-ons for HoMM4? For example, mods like: Alexander, Lord of the Ring... and so on..

Heroes of Might and Magic 4. Alexander Now you can test your skills in managing historical campaigns and battles of Alexander the Great. 6 extensive campaigns, chronologically corresponding to the epic conquests of the brilliant commander: Young Alexander, Greece and the Balkans, Asia Minor, the Mediterranean and Egypt, Babylon, India. 32 separate scenarios for single and multiplayer game modes. Spectacular graphics of the latest generation, historical accuracy of every detail, many great video moments, and grand soundtracks from the eponymous Hollywood blockbuster. Will you be able to repeat the path of the great conqueror?
Heroes of Might and Magic 4. Excalibur A new version of the famous Heroes. The game takes place in those distant times when magic existed in the world. The great kingdom of King Arthur is on the verge of extinction. Saxons, an inexhaustible stream pouring into the kingdom from the north, are to blame for everything. And it seemed that nothing could correct this situation...
Heroes of Might and Magic 4. Dragons and Dungeons "Heroes of Might and Magic IV: Dragons and Dungeons" is a fascinating continuation of the cult turn-based strategy "Heroes of Might and Magic IV", based on the plot of the film of the same name in the fantasy style. The young Empress Savina, having ascended the throne, intends to carry out large-scale reforms, granting rights and freedoms to peasants and commoners. However, the evil sorcerer Profion-Sineguby harbors insidious plans to overthrow the legitimate government. To do this, he needs to subdue powerful dragons with the help of certain ancient artifacts. In total, the sequel contains 3 full campaigns with original texts and storyline quests.
Heroes of Might and Magic 4. Lord of the Rings Addon for Heroes 4 based on Lord of the Rings. One of the distinctive features of the game is the variety of different hero classes. Each of them is characterized by its own special abilities and bonuses. Whether or not to rob certain places is up to you. Perhaps some will consider it unfair to take wealth, for example, from monks in a temple - let them deal with bandits, and vice versa. In addition, in high-level treasure chests, you can find ARTIFACTS that may not be possible to obtain otherwise.
//I am interested in them not as unlicensed products, but as possibilities for Mapmaking. More details /forum/section/45/.
I'm looking for the same set; I want to play through it again and reminisce. I know for sure that there used to be a boxed version with all these add-ons, except for Alexander. But the disc is lost, and I want to relive those memories. If anyone knows where I can find it, please let me know. Right now, they're hard to come by. I'm only interested in it as a global modification.
Buka is the official distributor and localizer, not some shady "Seventh Wolf." They couldn't release anything other than Whirlwinds and Storm. Everything else is pirated, and includes maps (often corrupted ones) that were mostly uploaded to Hugoloc. If you want content from these fake add-ons, go to Hugoloc and download the maps from there. It's much easier.
The thing is that, in addition to these campaigns, 3 videos from the corresponding movies are added, music is added, the main menu is changed, and this is not counting about 100 additional scenarios).
Additional scenarios, as I already mentioned, were downloaded by pirates from fan sites. And several videos, music, and the menu image are clearly not worth buying the game for. Although, it's up to you; look for them in stalls near the subway, pirated copies are usually found there at this time of year ;)
Oxygen, I repeat, I had a license, but it got lost somewhere. It included Heroes 4 + 2 official expansions + a lot of other stuff. I would buy such a version, but it's not available in stores now. Pandora, I've already tried searching on torrents, but either there's nothing, or it's copyrighted.
Krol_Vsmятku, you definitely didn't have a license. Because the campaign data (expansion pack) is not licensed. Therefore, even if the disc was purchased, it doesn't necessarily mean it's a licensed copy.
Отдай свои прошлые сны, В сомненьях себя обрети, В бешеном танце душа кружится! Не думай, что будет потом, Здесь и сейчас мы живем, Стань хоть на миг сам собой, слышишь!
The thing is, it was a licensed copy. It was the complete edition of HoMM4, and in addition, Buka involved fans in "finishing" the game. Somewhere on their website, there's a news item about this.
Отдай свои прошлые сны, В сомненьях себя обрети, В бешеном танце душа кружится! Не думай, что будет потом, Здесь и сейчас мы живем, Стань хоть на миг сам собой, слышишь!
Do you think it's real? I distinctly remember seeing this news somewhere on the King's Bounty website; I saw it myself, but I can't remember where. I tried searching for it, spent about an hour looking – but to no avail.
The thing is, they were already **included** in that version; I distinctly remember that the disc itself was designed the same way as all the other games by Буковский. If I saw it, I would recognize it immediately.
You can decorate the disc however you like: write that it's from Buka, wrap it in cellophane, etc. But this will NEVER be considered an official version. Buka only has the rights from **3DO** for the original game and both official expansions. Everything else is fan-made maps and campaigns, and they cannot be official. Could Buka sign a contract with ordinary fans to publish their masterpieces? And why would she? So, it was a well-made pirated copy.
And by the way, Buka never released Heroes 4 with both expansions separately, only as part of the Gold Edition (Heroes 1, 2, 3, 4 with expansions) and in the New Year's collection (Heroes 1-5 with expansions). Buka has not released and could not release any other official collections including Heroes 4!
"Как это странно всегда.. Вроде бы взрослые люди, А в голове ерунда.. Мечтаем как дети о чуде.."
Exactly. It's a great achievement to copy a cover. Lu41k

As far as I know, Buka didn't publish the fifth Heroes game and couldn't have. Although this is irrelevant.
