I'd appreciate it if you avoided making such statements.
I spent countless hours on this 3.800 version, and now it turns out it doesn't work on Win 8. I'm more disappointed than you are, and such words are unpleasant and demotivating: they make you think about giving up on this HD altogether.
Maybe it's really time to give up? It won't get any better, but it could definitely get worse.

Why won't it get any better? There are occasional glitches and crashes; the topic Bug Reports for HoMM3 HD confirms this.

baratorch, the latest update either causes the game to crash or prevents him from joining my server, claiming that he has an older version. The game versions are identical; he uses Win XP, and I use Windows 7. We rolled back to an earlier version, and everything is fine now. Still, thank you for your hard work!

Once again, I'm convinced that if you do something good for people without expecting anything in return, they behave like ungrateful creatures. They should at least be ashamed to write to someone who has done so much for the game completely free of charge. You put in the effort, you try your best, and in response, you get: "it's bad, stop doing it..."

A weighty statement. Is Monsieur not in a good mood this morning?
P.S. Baratortch, statistically, about 7% of individuals in any human population are homosexual, and this also applies to those who are mentally challenged and prone to destructive trolling. Don't pay attention to such people.

For my part, I pledge to participate in the "Charity - 2" tournament and hope for the understanding of the other forum members.

You haven't selected a color there; you need to click on the red flag.

It was selected. This happened after both players entered their passwords and the loading was complete. It was fixed by restarting the server.

Hello. In several recent versions of the game, the opponent's last turn is displayed very quickly. Literally in a fraction of a second. Does anyone know if it's possible to fix this?

Hello.
In the last few versions of the game, the opponent's last turn is displayed very quickly. Literally in a split second. Does anyone know if it's possible to fix this?
System options (button with a computer icon) -> Enemy speed -> set to 1 or 2.

Still no?

I downloaded Heroes III SoD from here (couldn't find the English version anywhere else), and installed the latest HD mod. When I launch it, a window pops up saying "Unable to initialize resources - possible disk problem." I Googled it and found this:
baratorch
create empty files:
<game folder>\data\h3ab_ahd.snd
<game folder>\data\h3ab_ahd.vid
<game folder>\data\h3ab_bmp.lod
<game folder>\data\h3ab_spr.lod
<game folder>\h3blade.exe

or choose "Other(Default)" in the "Your HoMM3 Version" field in the Heroes3HDSetup.exe utility

I couldn't find the option to select the game version; I created the empty files, and it started working. BUT:

The quick army management ([CTRL]+click, etc.) doesn't work in the hero and city windows. But it does work in the information window in the bottom right corner.

UPDATE

I solved the problem by updating the exe file to version 3.2.

Thank you for the link. All the English versions of Shades of Darkness I found came with Executable 3.2. I will add support for recognizing English version 3.0 in the next version.
