Please, tell me how to play Heroes 4 online.

Okay, first you need to download Hamachi, then join a network, and then in the game: 1. Network game. 2. If you're creating the game, create a game. 3. Via TCP/IP. 4. Then it's straightforward. 5. If you're joining, join the game. 6. Enter the name of the player who created the map. 7. Via TCP/IP. 8. Enter their IP address, which is shown in Hamachi, and click OK. Got it? Good luck!

First, you need to download Hamachi. Then, join any network. In the game, go to: 1. Multiplayer. 2. If you're creating the game, select "Create Game." 3. Choose TCP/IP. 4. The rest should be clear.
But I don't understand! What server should I choose?

Have you ever tried playing Heroes 4 through Garena? There are rooms with no restrictions.

I wouldn't risk using Garena. It glitches quite often, and its behavior can be unpredictable.

Why didn't you take the risk? It won't harm your health :) I play Generals through Garena, and I've played Stronghold before. I should try it.

I play Dota through Garena. And often there are lags, up to disconnections.

In general, I've tried a lot of things for the 4th game. Gameranger, Game Spy, Toongle. And in general, 90% of the time it depends on the internet connection of the opponents. If both have a good connection, then there will be no problems. With Toongle and Game Spy, there are quite a few complications; Ranger is simpler, but requires some "manipulations" with the file name if you want to play on a LAN.

In my opinion, with the exception of some relatively rare cases, Hamachi is sufficient for the game. Just don't update it to version 2.0.1.3 (or something like that) (Log me in Hamachi). At least, it worked very unstable for me.

Hamachi is great, but it has limitations on the number of users in a network. And in Garena, you can have a large group of people crowded in one room.

In Ranger, for example, there are no such restrictions at all. In Garena... well, perhaps there aren't any for Heroes. The limit of 225 (or 235) players is difficult to overcome. But on the other hand, there has never been a major problem with rooms in Hamachi. In 95% of cases, opponents agree on a game in advance.

come to GameRanger)

right now, everyone is only playing the third game, there are few playing the fourth – it’s such a disgrace.
