What is "KeZe"?
I've heard it many times in the stream.

A week ago, I found out how to play Heroes online.
I followed the instructions, downloaded everything, set it up, and started playing. I was playing HotA exclusively. Later, I realized that most people play SOD, so I tried it, and everything seemed normal, except for one thing. The graphics in SOD are just terrible; the images are blurry and unpleasant to look at. I checked everything in the graphics section when launching the HD launcher, but it's still the same. What should I do?
P.S. I play with a resolution of 800x600, like in the good old days, in fullscreen mode; I'm not considering other options. I've tried other settings, but the graphics are still distorted; it's especially noticeable when building in the castle, and all the letters in the building names are crooked.

Try installing the HD-Mod and setting the same graphics settings as in HotA.

Set it to 885x664. Just enter it manually. If you don't like it, then play "like in the good old days..." and don't complain :D
I used to play in 885x664, but now I have a 1062x664 widescreen monitor, which is optimal for me.

Well, if you're happy with the settings in Heroes, then taking them from there and using them for Soda is a good idea.

Thank you for the answers. 885x664 is no longer my preferred resolution; I tried it, and it's a completely different game. I set the settings as in Heroes of Might and Magic, but it didn't help; everything is still the same. I had to switch to screen settings and, by reducing the brightness, I managed to improve the picture somewhat.
And another question: I haven't quite figured out the forum. Could you provide a link to the seasonal tournament topic? I'd like to participate, but I don't know how or where. Thank you in advance.

To get accepted into the seasonal league, you need to play at least 5 games in the “for fun” section /topic/10877/.
Once that’s done, you can apply here too: /topic/11151/

Hello everyone! Please excuse my noobishness; I'm about to ask some silly questions, but I really need answers.
It made me nostalgic and I want to play Heroes 3 on my laptop. The problem is, I have a MacBook, but at least it's not an Air, so it works.
Here's my question for everyone: Can anyone suggest where to download a reliable version for macOS? I need one that at least works and allows me to play the campaigns from Armageddon's Blade or something similar.
And a question that's almost science fiction: Is it really possible to play online on a Mac?
Thank you in advance for your honest answers!

Couldn't find a separate thread for the HD Mod, so I'll post here.
I'm playing HoMM 3 Complete edition + HD Mod. The problem is that I really miss all sorts of azure/crystal/fairy/rusty dragons in terms of spawning locations. That is, on randomly generated maps, they don't appear at all, as if it's not Complete, but just Erathia. Also, I don't see any of the new terrain models introduced in SoD, and I don't even remember seeing magical or cursed terrain in this map generator.
Is there a way to choose an Armageddon or SoD template for the map in the HD Mod? Because I don't want to play through pre-made scenarios like Brave New World just for the sake of spawning rusty and crystal dragons. I want Armageddon-style randomness.

Understood. Thank you.

I read the description of Clash of Dragons. It seems quite intense, with armies of thousands and rich maps. But I'd prefer something more modest, like in Brave New World.
I once had a version of HoMM 3 AB without SoDa, and it had a random map template where you could find lairs of various cool creatures, including the Armageddon's Blade itself.
Are there any templates of that type? But preferably without the Armageddon's Blade artifact.
Where should I put the rmg.txt file if I'm playing with the HD Mod?
1) ...\Homm3\Data
2) ...\Homm3\_HD3_Data
3) ...\Homm3\_HD3_Data\Templates

Friends, please provide an answer or a link to a relevant discussion. Let's say I have 100 archers of level 2, and the opponent (computer) has 20 fire elementals. I attack. Into how many stacks will the opponent divide his army if I have 1 stack? Into 2, 3, or 6? And if he divides his army into 2 stacks, what will happen? (I don't really need the answer; I want to understand the mechanics of how the army is divided). What does the division into stacks depend on? Does it depend on the formation of my stack? On the number of units in my stack? On the level of our units? Or on everything at once? Where can I find more detailed information about the AI's mechanics regarding the division of its army into stacks? There's a lot of material on the forum, but I couldn't find it myself, but I'm sure this topic has been discussed before. Thank you in advance.

Thank you, I didn't notice it right away.
