Posts from Patches

Could someone please tell me where the game downloads the patches? Does it install them automatically, or is it possible to find the executable files somewhere so that, for example, when reinstalling the game after changing the operating system, I don't have to download all the patches again, but simply install them? Or maybe there's a place online where I can find these patches and download them as executable files? Thank you in advance.

No, it installs them immediately without saving...

The game asks whether to install the update. From this, we can conclude that, from the moment of downloading to the moment the patch installation is complete, it is stored somewhere. I don't know where; I need to look for it.

Maybe it deletes them if you install it...? I've looked everywhere, both in the game folder and in the documents folder... maybe I just didn't look properly.

Most likely, it deletes them. Why would the game store unnecessary files? You need to check right after downloading, but before installing.

During the initial game installation (version 1.0), the game folder contains files named Data 1-6.orc.
Each patch adds similar files to the folder: Data 7-13 (patches 1.1-1.5.1).
I'm going to venture a guess that if you copy these files to a removable storage device and then put them in the folder of a newly installed game (version 1.0), it will be beneficial.

When you first install the game (1.0), the folder contains files named Data 1-6.orc.
Each patch adds similar files to the folder: Data 7-13 (p 1.1-1.5.1)
I'm going to guess that if you copy these files to a removable drive and then put them in the folder with a newly installed game (1.0), it will be beneficial.

Thank you for the advice, I'll try it and let you know.

although, to be honest, it probably won't work: there are probably some changes in the existing files in addition to the data files. We'll see.

Hey guys, does anyone know where I can download all the patches for Might & Magic: Heroes VI? It's a pain to download them one by one from the internet every time... :(

Sharing with everyone! I found a resource where you can download all the patches. http://buka.ru/cgi-bin/show.pl?option=Show_patch&id=537
