Hello, please help me solve a problem. Very often, when it's my turn (no matter what order I am in), I get the error "Error receiving data. Try again?". The mana vial that shows data being received fills up as if in 2 data packets, and if it doesn't reach 100%, then there's a disconnect, and you have to write emails... We're playing through GameRanger, and two other players don't have this problem. I'm playing through a Wi-Fi router. If you need a crash log, I can attach it. I don't see the date of the latest messages in this thread; I hope the forum is still active.

Hota, HD 4.205 RC4, Heroes GOG complete, OH enabled. I quite often observe a bug where the turn ends automatically without confirmation, simply passing to the next turn. Is there a way to log this and track it down?

I quite often observe a bug where the turn ends on its own without confirmation, simply passing the turn. Is there a way to download a log to track this?

I have the same problem: I'm blue, turn 117 (last turn with HotA enabled), I pass the turn to the red player before he does, and it automatically passes to him, not allowing him to finish his turn.

Also, it's not well thought out what to do on turn 111 when the connection is lost. If it's a tournament game, it can be very critical. Today, I played against RozenKran: the connection was lost, I was blue, and I refused to pass the turn because I knew that Solmir and Kirr would not enter the tavern again. Fortunately, we agreed to play a new game.

Actually, Kobriy, it's been a while since they implemented the feature where heroes enter the tavern in the same order if you don't click "start over," so Rozen might try to trick you into giving him the win (go Tomichi!). :smile13:

Actually, the Cobra map has had that feature for a while now, so the heroes appear in the same order in the tavern if you don't press "start over." So, Rosen might try to trick you into thinking it's a bug (go Tomichi!). :smile13:

I'm still up for finishing that game with Kirr. :D
Anyway, thanks for the info; I'll have to check it out sometime.

Damn. It seems like I coded everything correctly. I don't encounter this issue during my own testing. Perhaps the problem arises due to a poor connection?
I'll try to do something about it.

It doesn't happen every time, it's happened about three times as far as I remember, and if I'm not mistaken, it always happens on the last day of the OH.

Over time, something seems off with the folder names.

Windows shows you the last modified date of the folder, i.e., the time when the last save was made in it.
In the name of the folder itself, there is the map generation time, i.e., the start time of the game.
So, everything seems fine.

Even considering the time spent on folder modifications, we wouldn't have been able to play 4 games in 54 minutes :). This was what we called the "restart phase." Now, the date of creation for each folder is displayed in the right column.

I checked it myself – everything is fine; the time in the map name is displayed correctly. When saving, the game simply creates a folder with the map's name and writes the save files into it. If the map is called "Arrogance," the saves will be written to the "Arrogance" folder. Find the map with the desired name in the "random_maps" folder and compare the name with the actual creation date of the map (not the folder), and then we can talk about a problem. If a restart means a new manual generation, then a map with a new name (new time) is created. If a restart is done within the game by replaying the scenario, then the restarted map is overwritten with the same (original) time in the name.

It seems things are becoming clearer. I wasn't the host; it was a guy from Vietnam. There's a +5 hour time difference. It turns out that the folder name includes the host's time, which can be a bit confusing.

I played with CkoTuHa this night for tournament. We both had "save after every turn" checked. But no one had saves. We had only empty folders. Is this because last update of HD mod?

When playing against an opponent (with a poor Hamachi connection), an interesting thing happens. I start the game as usual with the Russian interface, then the opponent connects (they also have the Russian interface selected in the launcher), and some of my buttons change to English, some to Ukrainian, and some remain in Russian. The Heroes of Might and Magic rules menu completely switches to English. After exiting the game and restarting the launcher, the default language is somehow set to Ukrainian.
