But didn't the games disappear afterward? Maybe they just took a long time to reconnect. This often happens when opponents quickly reconnect... it used to happen in SoD too. But the complete version, which you have, sometimes causes problems in combination with the mod, and prevents connection. I've noticed this several times, but there must be another factor involved, because many people use the complete version and don't complain.

That's the thing, it's unclear whether they disappear or not. Connection problems do occur; sometimes, the opponent writes that they've connected, but I can't see them. Maybe they're connecting to a game that's in a "hanging" state. I haven't noticed any problems with the complete version in many years; otherwise, I would have changed it already.

win xp 32
I updated through the launcher to version 3.808 b8, and the game stopped launching. It's running in the processes, but nothing is happening visually.

Change the graphics mode in the launcher or revert to 3.808 build 7 and wait for build 9.

What could be the possible reasons for the game crashing during loading?

It happened during an attack on monsters. There were manacles, but they were in the bag.

Recently, I encountered a crash during my turn (112 blue). After loading the autosave, a "map drawing error" occurred during my turn, causing almost all objects on the open map to disappear (only a small portion remained at the very edge). After reloading, another crash occurred during my turn while attempting to capture a Minotaur lair (immediately after). I have sent the saves and log file. (autosave, several single-player saves from the loaded autosave - I tried/couldn't reproduce the issue, one save after the error; I can ask another player to try reproducing it).

When trying to view an opponent's turn, the following crash occurred.

Same thing again, first 2 crashes on my turn 111, then while moving on turn 112, I got a map drawing error, but without a crash, and on my turn, it looked like this. We reloaded, and it seems to be okay now.

Game often crashes right after I join.

actually it is bug in HW rulz when using castles panel. when you join to new game by pressing "Load Game" instead of "New Game" in main menu.
thnx for reporting. will be fixed in 1.35.

I'll keep mentioning the map drawing error (although it's not critical for me, it's mostly for the record).
I uploaded the build from the Heroes3TV website; the only thing I changed was removing the video and MP3 resources. On my turn, it happened again – everything disappeared, but after a few mouse movements, it reappeared. I saved it. It disappeared again, and this time, when I tried to load the save, it crashed immediately (usually, it crashes after transmitting data).

Let me explain what a map drawing error is. If a critical error occurs during map rendering, HD, unlike the original, doesn't crash but simply interrupts the map rendering and allows you to save the game. A critical error during map rendering occurs as a result of a map bug (which usually manifests not only during rendering, and then a crash occurs). After you see a map drawing error, saving the game will record the map bug that caused the error. In theory, this save can be fixed and the game can be continued normally. But fixing it is time-consuming, and no one is going to do it. In general, if you see a map drawing error, you need to load earlier saves until you find a healthy one.

The game crashed when trying to create a Horn of Plenty, specifically when adding the Crystal Shroud to the "shoulders" slot.
