I also have Heroes: In the Wake of Gods. But it doesn't have any commanders or anything else that's in Heroes 3. What version is this?
Problem: We can't play online with a friend.
We both have ADSL modems and no dedicated IP.
1. Playing through GameSpy:
We log in, I create a room, he joins, I click "Launch Game"... and a menu opens for me where I can configure the map (WITHOUT THE GAME STARTING AT ALL, although they say you can't skip it, but we don't even have it), and for him, just the game logo "Heroes: Complete Edition" appears on the left, and there's not even a menu on the right... Then he gets a "Connection Error" (Timeout).
2. Playing through Hamachi 2:
We created a network, we can see each other (using "Check Availability"). We both log into the game, I'm the server, and he can't find me, even when entering the address, it says "Timeout".
Our computer configurations:
Internet: ADSL for both, and neither of us has a dedicated IP.
Operating System: I have Windows 7, he has XP.
Game Version: We first tried "Heroes of Might and Magic III Complete" (4.0), and it worked as described above.
Then we installed The Shadow of Death 3.0 - it doesn't work at all through GameSpy, and the same problem occurs through Hamachi.
We disabled all firewalls, both standard and installed ones.
Network priority is set so that Hamachi is at the top.
Game versions are IDENTICAL (Installed from the same disc on the same day =)).
We also tried "switching roles," he's the server, I'm the client, and vice versa.
Question: what should we do?
Но поскольку я нищий,
у меня лишь есть мечты.
Я разостлал свои мечты пред вашими ногами.
Ступайте бережно, ибо вы ступаете по моим мечтам.
