I'm having a problem with Heroes 3 under Windows 7. I upgraded from XP.
Heroes 3 (Sod 3.2 eng) launches, but it freezes from time to time (quite often) - the sound stutters, like a record skipping on one spot, and the cursor doesn't move around the window. Is there a fix for this?

Does anyone not have Windows 7? Please advise, as the tournament starts today. Reverting to XP is not possible.

The only thing that comes to mind is this patch that fixes the 100% CPU usage issue...

Unfortunately, I can't help you with anything else.
Try it, maybe it will work.

you can also try enabling compatibility mode with Windows XP – this might also have a positive effect on the gameplay.

Kash, thank you, but I can't get it to work – it started asking for the disc. Is there already a patched version of this patch available?

I tried that first. I also ran it as an administrator – still nothing. The "Aero" interface (transparent windows and other embellishments) is automatically disabled when switching to 16-bit color.

to Pawo, you just need to copy the file that Cash uploaded (Heroes3.exe) and replace the old one. I think that's how it works.

Well, that's what I did :) After that, the game started asking for a disc, which I don't have :o (I have an English version of SoD 3.2 that doesn't require a disc).

And a silly question – the solution was found because I'm having the exact same problem with Windows 7 Ultimate.

people, help!
I have the latest Phoenix mod, and I'd like to remove some options and bugs.

1. The main splash screen is displayed incorrectly.

2. Some sounds are missing.

3. I also want to change the option where all castles are mixed to the standard setting, along with the unit purchase window at the beginning of the game.

Please write to me in messages.

I forgot to mention the disk requirement.

You can find the answer here or on the developers' website.

Sorry, I forgot about the disk requirement.

Guys, please tell me, who among you actually knows how to play Heroes online? My friends and I are about to start hitting our computers with wrenches. It's very urgent. Here's my ICQ: 190392222. I couldn't find any relevant threads on the forum. I just have a few specific questions.

Could you please provide the ZVS-BMPPAL program?

It crashes when launching from the complete collection. Also, I'm interested in something else: if anyone has the "Mikogo" program, I would be grateful if you could upload it or provide a link to it.
