Posts from Technical issues with Heroes III.

usually, changing the settings after a player logs in helps (for example, if there are 2 players, change it to 4 and back:smile39: )

I've tried it both ways, clicked, changed it in various ways. I tried 2, 4, and 8 players, changed the colors, and the templates, both through the game and through the editor.
I cleared the maps and random maps folders. By the way, if I load a save, everything works normally, and I can play because, of course, there's nothing to choose there except who is blue and who is red.

The problem is this: before, when playing, on the map, when clicking on an enemy hero, it only showed which creatures he had, but not the quantity. Now it shows how many and what creatures he has. Is it possible to fix this?

Belendor, why fix it if it's better for you? :)
But seriously, this isn't a technical issue: being able to see the exact number of creatures and the enemy hero's primary skills is made possible by having a thief in your army. There's also the useful spell "Foresight". In the normal case, if you have very few or no castles, the number of creatures isn't shown at all (for example, in a garrison that doesn't belong to you); otherwise, an approximate number is shown.

I once encountered this issue. I completed the "Stubborn Hero" campaign in Heroes of Might and Magic VI (the latest version), and when I tried to save the game after completing 6 campaigns, a 7th campaign, "Seeds of Discord" from the Restoration of Erathia expansion, appeared. After completing it and saving, only the 7 RoE campaigns were saved, and the Heroes of Might and Magic VI save disappeared. Both Heroes of Might and Magic VI and the Restoration of Erathia expansion are included in the game build. What caused this, and what can I do to prevent it from happening again?

Help me solve an unclear bug...
This question is more for experienced mapmakers.
On a created (and fairly balanced) map, one of the four AIs constantly starts to act strangely (on a map with 8 players), and this manifests in the fact that it simply doesn't attack anyone... at all(!)... I've even tried simply blocking each starting town with one "friendly" peasant, but with repeated testing of the map, periodically one, then another, or even two or three of the four races simply become afraid to leave their castle because a scary peasant is standing there!)) Interestingly, the other four races always develop normally.
Does anyone know why this might be happening? I would really like to solve this problem so that I can finally play properly and release a new XL map.
PS. I've already tried placing mines, mills, monsters, and resources in the AI's field of vision... it doesn't help =( I also set the AI's personality to "Warrior," building, and researching, but for unknown reasons, this value is always reset to random in the game... is this always the case?

Hello everyone! I have a problem, and I'm asking for advice on how to fix it: In the "The Shadow of Death" campaign, there's a mission called "Requiem" in the 6th scenario, where you play as Gem and Klenzi. However, instead of Gem, there's a druid named Coronius. This Coronius is also level 25, just like Klenzi. Please let me know how to fix this bug! Or should I delete the heroes (after saving the game) and install new ones?

Hello everyone, I've encountered a problem: after reinstalling Windows (from XP to XP), Heroes 3 stopped launching. Basically, when I start the game, a black screen with a cursor in the middle appears, and then the game just freezes. Before the Windows reinstall, everything worked fine. Could you please advise me on what to do?

Hello gentlemen, I've encountered a problem: after reinstalling Windows (XP to XP), Heroes 3 stopped launching. Basically, upon startup, a black screen appears with the cursor in the middle, and then the game simply freezes. Everything worked before the Windows reinstallation; please tell me what should be done?

Reinstall Heroes. And do you have SoD?

Reinstall Heroes. And do you have SoD?

Reinstallation doesn't help, absolutely all Heroes 3 won't launch

try running the file from this archive for SoD, it might work

Oh thanks! WoG is working :smile14:

Will Heroes of Might and Magic III run on an Atom 450 (Netbook)?

pivo447, give it a try – and you'll find out. As a last resort, you can copy the installed game from another PC.

Good evening, everyone. Maybe someone can help? I have a basic computer, Windows 7, everything was installed, the Hamachi ping works, but the server doesn't see either me or my opponent. The firewall is disabled, the antivirus is also disabled, and it won't let me join the game, saying it can't find it even when connecting directly via IP. Could there be any additional blocks in Windows 7? Has anyone encountered this or know what to do? Thank you in advance.

HELP!!!! By the way, after installing the HD mod for Heroes of Might and Magic III: The Shadow of Death, half of the text is in Russian, and half is in English. The "Armageddon's Blade" and "New Game," "Load Game" texts are also slightly shifted to the left (I downloaded the Russian version of the HD mod). It's a minor issue, but I'd like to have a single language and a normal main menu. I found the "lang" file in the "data" folder and tried to change the language, but it didn't work. Does anyone know how to fix these problems? Thanks in advance.
