Copied everything from the forum of the 3rd one, but just in case:
I suggest posting the IDs of game streams and discussing the corresponding programs in this thread. A simple announcement about a stream could look like this: nicknames of the players, map, factions/heroes, ID, and maybe the internet speed. Over time, it may be necessary to specify the program for viewing, which will be discussed below.

FAQ from me about Mikogo.
To stream, register on the Mikogo website, and instead of your nickname, enter your email address. Then, complete the registration in your email. In the program, go to Settings -> Username and enter your email. Click Start Session. Now, everything that happens on your screen will be transmitted to the viewers. To reduce lag, in Settings -> Preferences, leave only the windows that are necessary for the stream visible. I left Heroes visible.
For viewers, in the program, select Join Session, enter the desired ID, and watch.

I used the program. I liked it a lot. I watched live streams of Heroes 3. Not for long, though – it gets boring quickly. I still haven't realized what benefit this program can bring. Perhaps only for a small group of people, during the final battles. The most interesting thing is to watch streams from online tournaments, but then the confidentiality of the game is violated. The player can see the opponent's moves. Is anything known about the viewing restrictions?

Well, those who are streaming can see who is watching their stream on Mikogo, but you can register under any nickname.

You're on the right track! Actually, watching streams is helpful for those who want to learn something new. It compensates for the lack of information and so on. In tournaments, it's certainly unpleasant when an opponent cheats, but in a three-player game, this isn't a problem because the game relies on trust and the opponent's integrity, as you can cheat or reveal the map in any way.

I think tournaments should be recorded and then made available for viewing. As for regular amateur matches, they can be interesting to watch, because if someone wins unfairly, it won't be enjoyable, and amateurs play for fun.

I agree.

Actually, streaming is useful for those who want to learn something. It compensates for waters, etc.

That's true. But almost everyone who wanted to has already learned :) If only it were 5 years ago.

In tournaments, it's of course unpleasant if an opponent joins in, but in a group of three there's no such problem, because the game is purely based on trust and the opponent's conscience, since you can reveal the map or cheat by any means.

There are some tools against cheaters, however. Besides, the maps are well-trodden, the final layouts are known, and strong and fast power-leveling jumps out at you.

As for friendly games, the benefit is of course undeniable. There is, however, one problem - Time. By watching saves, you can learn practically everything with minimal time investment. The point isn't about how to kill a specific monster at an object with a certain army by watching a video and learning. The point is how to be able to complete a certain set of tasks under any layout and get to your opponent faster. You'd have to watch too many streams to learn that :)

By the way, whether you're watching save files or videos, the time spent will be roughly the same. The difference is that with save files, you can "review a section," but on the other hand, you'll then need to figure out "exactly how what you watched was done," while a video shows everything clearly.

Still, I would like to see streams, whether it's a PRO player or a beginner, it's still interesting to watch how others play.

Come on, doesn't anyone play Heroes 4 anymore?

Conspiracy:D

Yeah, right :D

Convince Zubr to install the program. He'll be playing in the World Championship soon :) It should be interesting.

Ehh! Scoundrel!:D What interesting things could there be after a year-long break?)))

And will you, comrade Stranger, be playing?:confused: If you do, that's great:smile01:

I've set up the camera. Who knows, maybe we'll be able to film a movie tomorrow:D
