Posts from Technical issues with Heroes III.

does anyone have a patched version of 3.2 that works with 3.1?

There are patched executable files available online. Alternatively, you can play with the **HD mod**: it also launches the version 3.2 executable, but with all its advantages.

When creating a map, it gives an error: "Could not create a random map that fits current choices." I've tried downloading and using different templates and changing various settings, but the error only disappears on M maps, but it creates something that clearly isn't a template.

Any template must be renamed to .rmg and placed in the DATA folder. Also, some templates cannot be generated on XL maps, while others cannot be generated on small maps. Therefore, read the description of the template to find out on which settings and sizes it should be generated.

I have the following problem.
I reinstalled the system, including the game.
I reinstalled it.
Now, about the issue: I have the animation accelerator cranim.txt in the data folder.
Everything seems to be fine. The accelerator works, but only until the actual contact occurs. I mean, when a pikeman, for example, hits a zombie.
He runs up to him quickly, but the hit itself seems to be without the animation acceleration.
It's very annoying.
How can I fix it?

Problem: when connecting through Hamachi, the room created by the player is visible, but it is not possible to connect to it; the game does not resolve the issue.

There's a problem with the encoding in Heroes 3.58 WOG when running it under Wine on Linux. The game is Russian-localized. In the WOG settings panel and WOG messages, the text is displayed as gibberish. The rest of the game's text is displayed correctly. How can I fix the encoding?

Well, you're quite the eccentric :D

Can anyone tell me what to do?! In Heroes 3.58f with WOG, the text from the WOG add-on isn't displayed correctly; everything else is fine, but this particular text appears as gibberish.

Sorry in advance – I haven’t read the whole thread. I have a problem: I have Heroes 3 – Platinum Edition. Is anyone still playing it? And is it possible to install HDmod on it somehow?

No, you can't!

No, you can't!

Don't make fun of the guy:D

...I have Heroes 3 - Platinum Edition. Do people still play it? And is it possible to install HDmod on it somehow?

Of course, people play it - in Deberc, Rams, Poker, and other games. But seriously, install ND-mod on it, and if it doesn't work, then ask your questions.

In general, the HD mod doesn't install. The following problem arose:
Heroes doesn't launch on the first try – the game freezes when starting;
When trying to play via TCP/IP, the game simply freezes.
The eternal question – what should I do? Thanks in advance.

A problem has arisen: when launching the game on 2 computers with Windows 7 64-bit, it doesn't detect the IP address, even though the ping in Hamachi is excellent and shows as green. Previously, when the host was on XP, the client with Windows 7 could connect normally. Has anyone encountered a similar problem?
