I have a question.
What is the map size, is there a Dungeon, how many computer opponents are there, and are they allied?
Also, what is the starting Castle?

You can find all of this by loading the starting save file, or by opening the map in the editor, but nevertheless:

Map size - M;
Dungeon - yes;
Computer opponents - 3;
They are not allied;
Starting Castle - Elven (Golden Dragons).
Starting hero is Jelu (just to get things started; and for a mental challenge).

Sincerely, VDV_forever

Dear VDV_forever! I accept the challenge! Kamikaze, take the excavator and dig as much as you need. A user manual is included. I reviewed the map. It's awesome. Special thanks for it. The results will be close. For sure...

Thank you very much, Mr. Gandalf! I won't participate in this tournament anymore – I've already defeated everyone, so it might be useful in the future. Respect!

Dear friends, please enlighten me. I have The Shadow of Death 3.1, but the disc has been lost. I found a crack and tried to patch it to 3.2, but it didn't work – there were no changes. So, my question is: does patching only work for licensed versions, or does it not affect the game's appearance in any way? It's still version 3.1.

They're just fixing bugs... I don't know which ones... unfortunately...
For example, the bug that allowed casting two spells in one round is fixed.

Personally, nothing changed in the game's appearance, and no bugs were fixed, including the double cast bug. I used the patches that VDV_forever and AmberSoler provided links to. In short, I just don't use forbidden bugs.

The issue wasn't fixed for me either. I tried both simply patching and replacing the executable with the 3.2 executable.

Hello :)

Can I participate in Tournaments on the "Platinum Edition"?
Before asking such questions, read the thread from the beginning… it doesn’t seem like much has been written yet… :smile42:
And here is the answer to your question: link.

Sincerely.

You can play on version 3.0, but you can't use bugs.
Sincerely, VDV_forever

Where can I find a list of prohibited bugs? After all, many players don't patch their game. The rules for this tournament only mention the prohibition of buying back a dismissed hero. In other words, does this mean that newcomers who are unaware can use double-cast? What else did I miss? Create a separate thread with the rules for version 3, where you clearly list the rules and prohibited bugs. And in the tournament announcements for version 3, simply include a link to the thread with the rules, so you don't have to bother yourself or others every time. :)
