Dear friends, please clarify for me, a person who is completely unfamiliar with Heroes 5, what exactly I should ask the sellers. I'm already getting confused with versions like 5.1.2 – what is this? Is it version 1.2 or something else? And what should be in the original file that is patched to the desired version? What is its name? Thank you in advance.

Dear friends, please clarify for me, a person who knows absolutely nothing about Heroes 5 – what exactly should I ask the sellers? I’m already getting confused by the versions, especially 5.1.2 – what kind of beast is that? Is it version 1.2 or something else? And what should be in the original files that are patched to the desired version? What is the name? Thank you in advance.
Don't buy version 5.1.2! Yes, it's version 1.2, but it's only a pirated version! (Thank you, Alan, for the information)

The procedure is as follows:
You buy the disc: "Heroes of Might and Magic V"
version: 5.1.0! And under no circumstances should you buy versions 5.1.1, 5.1.2, or 5.1.3, as these are pirated versions, and patches may not be installed on them.
Install patch 5.1.4, download it here. (97.6 MB)
then patch 5.1.41. here (6.7 MB)
then patch 5.1.5 here (28.7 MB)

That's it! After that, you can start enjoying the game. :D

Let's slow down. The licensed version of Heroes is sold ONLY as version 1.0!!!! All 1.2 and later are pirated versions.
You need to ask for the original Heroes 5. There is also the Heroes 5: Hammers of Fate expansion, version 2.0. And Heroes 5: Silver Edition, which contains the original game and the expansion. There are no other OFFICIAL, LICENSED versions.
Patches are installed as has been mentioned many times: 1.0-1.4-1.5. And then we play the tournament.)

2 Kamikaze, send me your email address in a private message, and I'll send you the save file.

The order is as follows:
You buy the disc: "Heroes of Might and Magic V"
version: 5.1.0! And definitely don't buy versions 5.1.1 or 5.1.2 or 5.1.3, because these are pirated versions, and patches may not install on them..
Install patch 5.1.4, download it here. (97.6 MB)
then patch 5.1.41. here (6.7 MB)
then patch 5.1.5 here (28.7 MB)

That's it! After that, you can start enjoying it.. :D

WHAT!!!! Can I play on 1.1?
With a mod, maybe... Something like "Cleric Mod" and "Dark Knights"... But honestly, I don't know what's there... :(

Due to temporary problems, the save has been uploaded via a link; it will be posted as an attachment later.
I'm waiting... I hope my computer will allow me to play "Heroes 5" normally... :( As they say: "Hope dies last"... :smile02:

2 Snowball, you have been accepted. 2 Alexander G.K. It is not possible to play on version 1.1. Only on version 1.5. The save file has been sent. Replays are only available in version 1.5 and are created after the battle (see my response to Kyle).

Sorry if I'm being slow, but just in case, if I have Heroes of Might and Magic V: Silver Edition, will I be able to upgrade it to version 1.5?

So, I found out that the save file won’t load without a map in the MAPS directory – that’s a new one!

I've already seen the answer... It seems I won't be able to participate in this tournament, at least for now: firstly, because I have the wrong version of the game, and secondly, the game crashes 50% of the way through loading the save... :(((((( :smile33: :smile33: :smile33: :smile32: :smile32:

2 fanat, of course, you can. As far as I remember, Silver is just the original game and the add-on in one box, so patch the original game as already mentioned, and you'll be good to go. 2 kamikaze, I didn't know that. 2 Alexander, well, if the version is different, then it's logical that the save file won't load. And in general, for the future, it's worth reading the rules first, and then submitting an application.
