I downloaded a new torrent with patch 1.7. I installed it. I encountered the following problem: when entering the Castle, instead of the background with the buildings, I see black and gray squares and rectangles. This didn't happen in the earlier version of the game. I uninstalled it because the translation wasn't very good, as I downloaded it when the game had just been released. Thank you in advance.

Downloaded a new torrent with patch 1.7.

Is it a pirated version?

Thank you in advance.

I have a legitimate version, and this bug also occurs.
In general, the new patches have created new glitches; here are a few (although some may have existed before).
1. In the Campaign for Anastasia, when I besiege a city, large creatures (lamassu, spiders) can only be placed automatically: if you try to drag such a creature, it goes into reserve, and it is impossible to take it out from there. At the same time, the rest (small) creatures seem to "disappear" from the battlefield. Archers can shoot, and even without a penalty for obstacles, and melee units are generally in an "astral" state: their turn comes, but it is impossible to move them (although they seem to be in their places). The enemy does not see these astral units and, accordingly, does not attack them.
2. The "pathfinding" skill reduces the hero's movement range. This, I must admit, annoys me the most.
3. The "despair" skill increases the morale of the enemy creature.
4. During the Week of the Living, the initiative of living creatures increases by 10 instead of the declared 5.
5. It seems that some buildings that increase the hero's parameters for a week actually only increase them until the first battle. For example, when visiting the "Seal of Arkat," the hero's physical and magical defense increases by 5, and this is reflected in the hero's characteristics, but after the first battle, the hero's parameters return to their previous values.

Hey guys, I'm new to Heroes, and I think I'm experiencing a bug. In the campaign "Everything is Mixed Up - Truth and Falsehood," after winning the dungeon and capturing the city, I still have the task "Defeat Giorgio" active. I've searched the entire map from top to bottom; where is this guy?

Hey guys, has anyone encountered this problem?

Guys, I need help! As a happy owner of the collector's edition, I had no problems with the game... until about a month ago when I updated my system.... And that's when the real mess started. Autopatching doesn't work at all, constantly displaying this:

Runtime Error
Program: D:/Might and Magic Heroes 6gu.exe

This application has requested Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application support team for more information

The support team's recommendations, as well as removing the antivirus/disabling the firewall, didn't help at all. Yes, the game does launch... but on version 1.03. And, of course, without connecting to the Conflux. In general, if anyone knows HOW to fix this issue, please help. Because I want to play, but I can't.

The problem is that I've already reinstalled everything from scratch 5-6 times... I've also contacted support, cleaned the files they pointed me to... No result. The patch download reaches 100%, and then displays another error. It's frustrating.
PS: when I reinstalled it for the first time, I accidentally tried to link the game to a different account on Uplay... It didn't let me link it, but... Could this be causing problems? In general, if anyone knows how to help... I'm completely desperate. Should I clean the registry, or something else, or write to support again...?

Guys, has anyone encountered this problem?

I just encountered it.
Everything is as described.
Reinstalling and cleaning the registry doesn't help.

If automatic patching isn't working, why not patch the game manually?

apparently, because when attempting to patch manually, the message "game not installed" is displayed.

That's a shame. What if you do it completely manually? Take the necessary files and add them (if nothing has changed, patching consists of adding a single archive).

To apply the patch, uninstall Uplay and then reinstall it.

Барон "Vampires"

Отдай свои прошлые сны,
В сомненьях себя обрети,
В бешеном танце душа кружится!
Не думай, что будет потом,
Здесь и сейчас мы живем,
Стань хоть на миг сам собой, слышишь!

It didn't work; it still gives the same error. (

Could you provide more details from this point? Which files and where should I put them?)

There you have files with the .orc extension. The patch usually adds them, although theoretically it could replace an .exe file or a couple of .dll libraries, but I would only start manipulating them if adding the "Orcs" doesn't help.
So, step 1: get the necessary archives with the updates, i.e., the missing .orc files (ask someone who has these updates installed to send them to you).
Step 2: copy them to your computer.

Ment, thank you for your help.)
While looking for a way to implement your method, I came across a patch for the game on torrents that fixes the registry error.

I'm not sure if it's allowed to post links to such resources here, so if anyone has a similar problem, please write to me in a private message.

So, how do I fix this? I haven't updated the game since summer. Now I decided to play, and this happened.
