My version is 3.1. I really like everything, and I'm looking forward to the 6th installment of Heroes, but there's one detail that bothers me a lot: after a battle, I'm offered to save it. This inspired me, but when I clicked "save," a "File name" bar appeared, and below it, "Battle description." No matter what I entered in "File name," the save icon remained grayed out, and when I hovered over it, it displayed: "You must enter a valid name." I also tried writing battle descriptions, but it still doesn't save. I like to approach such things creatively, coming up with descriptions. I don't know if the 6th installment will have this feature, but I need to solve the problem now, not wait for the release of the 6th part and hope for something. Please help me.
P.S. Some battles turn out to be simply amazing, especially on Veteran or even Hero difficulty. But when I start a game, I intend to save every significant battle, even if I have to run away like a rat from a sinking ship. This is my story. How can it be that such a great opportunity for creativity is lost?:(

Is it only in the file name? Because I really don't like having the battle description in a non-Latin alphabet.

Thank you, Flandre, you really helped me out. The game Heroes is moving on to a new stage. Let your imagination run wild! And how could I not have figured it out myself? The battle description can be written in any way. Thank you! What a small problem it was. Good luck to everyone! I'm leaving this site; it's magnificent.

Hello, fellow Heroes fans! I can't watch replays – I created a profile using Latin characters, but a folder with the profile name wasn't created in the root directory. I tried creating such a folder myself and then creating a "replays" folder inside it, but it still doesn't work. I can't view anything in the options. What should I do?

In the root directory? Meaning in My Documents/My Games/Heroes of Might and Magic V/Profiles?

Yes, exactly: My Documents/My Games/Heroes of Might and Magic V/Profiles
I think this file location was explained on this forum, or am I missing something???

Or maybe I need to display hidden files and folders?

No need... I haven't encountered this problem. Try creating another profile.

Does the "Record Battle" button appear in your options? You can use it to record any battle, and the replays folder will be created automatically.

Seriously, do you think I'm completely clueless? After the battle, a window with battle statistics appears, and it contains a record of the battle, and then it closes. The battle is recorded, but there's no folder with replays, even though I can watch this particular battle. However, I can't find replays of other players' battles.

If you can watch your own battle recordings, then you should be able to watch recordings of other players - look carefully on your computer for these files (battle recordings) - they have the .sav extension and weigh about 300-350 kb in uncompressed form. If you find them, you'll find the folder too. ;)

Of course - be sure to uncheck the box in the "Hidden files" section - most likely, that's why you can't see them...

I've been doing some digging – I've gone through all the system folders in the game, and I couldn't find a single .sav file, but I can still watch the recording of my battle. I've already tried looking at hidden files and folders, and I even restarted the game – nothing works. The profile folders aren't being saved either.

I even reinstalled the game this morning on a different drive – still, after creating a profile, there's a "default profiles" folder in the Profiles folder with five .cfg files, but there's no folder with my profile. Scandals, intrigues, investigations – who can come up with an answer to my hairy question?))

Something strange is happening – I've searched all the system folders in the game, but I couldn't find a single .sav file, yet I can still watch recordings of my battles.

The "Profiles" section exists in two places: in the game's installation directory and in "My Documents" (and that's where you were advised to search). It's in the latter directory that you need to look for the profiles you need, as well as the "Saves" and "Replays" folders. The first folder contains game saves (also files with the .sav extension, but their size is usually around 4-5 MB), and the second contains the replays you've lost. :smile35:
