If anyone is interested, here are the themes for demons and gnomes.
Thank you, that's interesting.

I can't find where the save files are stored. I've searched through all the folders, but I haven't found them. Can you provide the correct path?

In the licensed version, is it possible to exit the Council Hall and access individual campaign maps if they have been partially completed?

Hey everyone, I'm having an issue – I'm playing as the Necropolis faction, it's the second map, and I've completed all the quests except for one: Zenda, Al-Malik, and Lyudmila must not die. I've gathered the refugees, killed the lords, captured the mines, and even found the Tear of Ashi – but the mission still won't end. I went through the dialogue about the Well of Souls after finding the last refugees, and that's it; nothing else happens. There's a fog of war at the top of the map, but I can't get there; I've searched everywhere.
I'm playing on hard difficulty, and I've already cleared the entire map. I really don't want to start all over. Does anyone have any idea what the problem is?

Thank you, it boosted my morale :smile01:. I found them there. The save files have strange extensions - shot :rolleyes: and the file names are different from those in the game.

MialistaGuys, I have a problem - I'm playing the Undead campaign, second map, I've completed all the quests, but only one remains - where Zenda, Al-Malik, and Lyudmila shouldn't die. I gathered the refugees, killed the lords, captured the mines, even found the Tear of Ashi - but the mission still won't end. I went through the dialogue about the Well of Souls after finding the last refugees, and that's it, nothing else happens. There's a fog of war at the top of the map, but I can't get there, I've searched everywhere.
I'm playing on Hard difficulty, I've already cleared the entire map, and I really don't want to start over. Can anyone tell me what the problem is?
I played on Medium difficulty. I remember that the last animation was the appearance of a spider's legs above the Dungeon, where the spider was carrying a vial of poison :smile42:. I had a problem with capturing the mines; they wouldn't become mine on time, even after destroying the Orcish huts.

Is it a licensed disc or a repack? In my second playthrough, many people get a crash at the end of the second map or at the beginning of the cutscene for the third map.

I have a different problem - the saves for the 3rd map won't load, and the Forest Brothers are giving me a hard time; it's impossible to fight them - I don't have a castle or a decent army to build

Yeah, the battle music isn't great. I wish I knew how to replace it, because after two hours of tinkering with the editor and resources, it became clear that the game's inner workings are inaccessible to the user.

Not really - these are the engine's requirements, but I've had a chance to play around with the beta a bit, and while it's not about the music, it's still quite a mess compared to the 5th installment! :smile18:

I think I'll have some time next weekend to explore the release!

Are there encrypted archives again, like in the sixth game? Or what?

I don't know about the release, but in the beta, they were normal!

It's just that the inside is confusing, right? ) I'll have to take a closer look too...

I completed the first mission as the Elves, and started the second – I have three Orcish towns and several heroes with hordes and hundreds of basic creatures. I decided to play as the Necromancers, reached the third mission, and encountered the same problems – a lot of towns, and my heroes have small armies. I've only visited two Sanctuaries: Light and Air. Does anyone know where to find the Earth Sanctuary, and do I need an army after entering the portal?

I noticed that in Heroes of Might and Magic V, there were many more heroes with their own models, unlike in Heroes of Might and Magic VI, where they just added armor to the models of ordinary heroes for the main campaign heroes, and in Heroes of Might and Magic VII, the heroes don't even boast unique models; they all look the same: :smile48:

No. The format is non-standard. It's unclear how to edit it.

The sixth game had the same issue, but a packer and unpacker were created for the Orcish archives.

It's just that nothing is clear from the inside, right?) I’ll have to dig around too…
Well, this is Unreal Engine 3; it was dissected a long time ago, and there are convenient utilities available. For example, UE Viewer
Everything opens normally; I haven’t tried exporting models yet, but there shouldn’t be any problems with that either.

What does it mean that 4 GB of RAM is not enough? Are they completely out of their minds? With such graphics??? I have 4 GB of RAM and a GeForce 560. The campaigns run fine, but when I try to start individual scenarios, it crashes immediately. The system requirements state a minimum of 4 GB. But it's not enough. I don't think even patches will help. Is this the fifth installment, released in 2020, that they're imposing such requirements? It's just a TBS game with graphics worse than Heroes 5. That's my opinion.

Exactly... They've created something strange...
I uninstalled the game from my laptop (which was recently criticized), and installed it on my desktop (Intel(R) Core(TM)2DuoCPU E8400 @ 3.00GHz, AMD Radeon HD 6800 Series, 4 GB RAM, Windows 7 Ultimate, Service Pack 1) - the result is the same; the first mission of the mages didn't complete and got stuck in a multi-hour loading of the save file...
Well, if I'm not a gamer, and I've never played anything other than Might and Magic, and my hardware perfectly satisfies all my computer and internet needs, then why should I upgrade it to a mega-professional level? And there's no guarantee of success... Here, I've selected some comments on the topic from Ubisoft's official website:

The best comment about the pirated version from Ubisoft:
"...it won't help - I have 16 GB of RAM, but this dog eats up resources like crazy, the process takes 14!!! and a message appears saying that there is not enough memory. I wish the incompetent developers would..."

Guys, what are the system requirements? Just because it runs on your computer doesn't mean it will run on everyone else's. My computer, for example, is definitely not below the minimum (Windows 8.1 x64, 8GB RAM, CPU Athlon X4 760 Quad Core 3.8 GHz, video AMD Radeon R7 260X OC 2GB) - but after a couple of minutes of running the game, it crashes - Ran out of memory, I only managed to watch the campaign video.

I wonder how your cheats can help if the game doesn't work at all? The game just crashes constantly, restarting the computer in 90% of cases.
I haven't encountered such a raw and unfinished game yet! A month of waiting for the pre-order + 4 days after the game's release - as a result, I was able to play for no more than an hour and perform a hundred computer restarts, and they suggest that I use cheats in a game that doesn't work. Just wonderful.

My system requirements far exceed the game's requirements. But I have win 10, a license, and a fresh installation. i7 4790, 16Gb ddr, gtx 780ti. 4K monitor.

Of course, I'll increase the RAM to 8 GB (it definitely won't hurt). If that doesn't help, I'll have to wait for a couple of patches... :(
...Thanks to my wife's dentist and my son, who damaged my car, I don't think I'll be able to afford a mega-computer for the rest of the year... :)
