DeadOk, the peculiarities of the Sphere of Vulnerability's effect are described in detail in PhysMige, which every "Heroes" player should have at hand! ;) See section 5.4. Sphere of Vulnerability. Peculiarities of its application in battle.

Thank you.

Marmot

By the way, "kung fu" is written this way in Russian.

Actually, no.

DeadOk, you are being stubborn for no reason, although I suspect you have been told this 1000 times in private messages: http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9A%D1%83%D0%BD%D0%B3-%D1%84%D1%83

Marmot, nevertheless http://dic.academic.ru/dic.nsf/dic_fwords/39049/%D0%9A%D0%A3%D0%9D%D0%A4%D0%A3

And although, in reality, it's actually "kung fu" (i.e., we're both wrong), both variants are found in Russian, so there's no point in being pedantic :) and believe me, the purpose of the signature is not to show off knowledge.

P.S. If the font size is annoying, I can reduce it.

Hello, I'm new to your forum. I've been playing Heroes 3 for a long time and am somewhat familiar with the mechanics. However, I've only played a couple of online games, and it's quite different from the games I used to play with friends over a LAN. I understand that the sooner you reach the enemy, the better. Now, I have some questions. What is the "Jebus" template, and is it popular? Where can I download it? Also, I've heard about tournaments where the goal is to complete a map in the shortest time possible. I know it's a bit of a grind, as you need to load the game to get a good hero, but I want to try it. A girl suggested your forum to me; I played a duel with her. I don't think she'll mind if I upload the save file, as I don't have a mod that saves the game every day. I'm addressing the GURUs here – please review my mistakes and point them out. I apologize in advance for any errors, as I'm not the best at writing. http://yadi.sk/d/Ok-dikhj7eLUe Red pass: Tara10, Blue pass: 12

Is it possible in the regular Heroes 3 to sort captured castles by type? And how did the enemy hero move without an army? I couldn't believe my eyes when I attacked him (and won immediately, of course).

No.

Here is how This is a bug in the game. But everything might be much simpler. The AI gave a creature to the Seer and exchanged it, leaving itself without an army.

It depends on the version, but I remember a bug where when two strong AI heroes met, one would always be killed and remain alive, but without an army... and at the same time, remained invulnerable to the AI, could sit in a castle or do something else.

Invulnerable to AI – perhaps there’s a different algorithm for evaluating the situation. And it seems that a hero without an army, stationed in a Castle, can no longer leave it.

Here's the question. How much does the number of days spent completing a single-player game affect the number of points earned?

Auto-translated

POINTS = [200 - (D + 10)/(Z+5) + B + G]*R,
where D - number of days spent
Z - number of castles captured
B - bonus for defeating all enemies (25 points) - however, if the map did not specify the condition "Defeat all enemies", this bonus will not be counted.
G - bonus for the Grail (25 points)
R - game difficulty coefficient (maximum - 2)

Does anyone know how to update the third installment from "Buka" to version 1.4? The patch refuses to apply, only adding command maps and ultimately displaying an installation error. I'm starting to consider buying the original from "3DO" in the USA, even if it costs over 20 dollars, not including shipping.

What is this version 1.4? Is it The Shadow of Death 3.2 Complete Collection? And is 1.4 Armageddon's Blade, or even worse, The Restoration of Erathia? Just install the Complete Collection; it has all the official maps, all the campaigns, the Conflux town, and a random map generator. Everything as it should be.

The Restoration of Erathia

That's exactly it. That's how I feel. :smile04:

I have the Complete Collection, but I don't like it precisely because of some of the new content. I don't use the map generator; I wish I had never seen Conflux at all. All the campaigns and maps added before version 1.4 are fine. That's why I had the question about updating, where many serious flaws are fixed, such as the possibilities for variable hiring and leaving guards at resource sources.

I don’t use the map generator; I’d rather never have seen the Conflux; all the campaigns and maps added before version 1.4 are fine.

Oh my god. I see. Well, I understand that it’s pointless to try to change your mind.
The only thing I can do is suggest trying the HD MOD. Have you heard of it? It’s not a mod like Wog or some other nonsense. It’s a mod that allows you to:
1. run the game in high resolution (instead of the standard 800*600),
2. fix game bugs such as: duplicated heroes, grayed-out cities, uncontrolled AI control of your hero, and many others,
3. transfer armies and artifacts from one hero to another with a single button,
4. most importantly: it doesn’t change the balance. It is completely consistent with the classic game.

But it only works with The Shadow of Death or the Complete Edition. You can find the already installed version here

Not only have I heard of it, but I've also played with it for about a year and a half. It's currently installed on my Complete Collection, and I'm replaying The Restoration of Erathia. :smile13: That's the situation. So, I'll have to get it from abroad if there's no other solution for those with slower computers.
