Nmesa, Download the full version from the website:
https://sites.google.com/site/heroes3hd/rus/download
Install it on top of your existing installation.
Make sure that the following 2 update servers are specified in the \_HD3_Data\Settings\#common.ini file:

Update.

- This recipe is universal and is recommended for use with any update issues.
I added these servers to the file, the mod updated (although it used to give an error), but the HoA tab does not apply, it gives an error.

or do I need to manually install some update for the game itself to HoA?

After installation, will it still be possible to play the regular complete version?

Recently, I noticed that when the guild rebuilding feature is enabled, the following occurs with the Necropolis faction. When building a Guild Master, the chance of receiving the Animate Dead spell is astronomically high. However, with the rebuilding feature enabled, it seems like the spell is randomized and its chance is reduced to be on par with other spells of that level. Is there a way to definitively check this and fix it if it's true?

Looks absolutely amazing! :smile54: It's a pity that such a cool feature is only for HotA again.

There was a hint at the end that it's not just for HotA.

It’s a good thing, but it won’t really change anything in the world of professional Heroes. I’ve written about this before (and not just once) that the real breakthrough would be the development of software for broadcasting directly from the game. I’ve seen something similar in Dota. So that viewers could enter as spectators directly into the game of two players and not just watch the picture that the streamer provides, the quality of which depends on many factors, but also have the opportunity to follow the progress and zoom in on the heroes, castles, view information about the current state of affairs in the game, etc. If this is possible in Heroes, I would personally organize a fundraising campaign.

I'd be happy to be wrong, but it seemed pretty clearly stated that it was "exclusively for HotA."

+1, that would be the greatest breakthrough, I would give anything for that.

In the world of professional Heroes, it's unlikely that anything can be radically changed. Baratorch was talking about this in the video. This feature should help attract new players. When a person has the opportunity to download the game and play online from the game client, that's really cool. If I want to play, for example, Diablo or Hearthstone, I don't have to look for some forum, delve into the nuances of the game, negotiate with someone, etc.; I just click one button and play. Believe me, there are a lot of players who would like to play but don't want to browse forums.

I've already written (more than once) that the real breakthrough would be the development of software for streaming directly from the game. I've seen something similar in Dota.
In Dota, active actions take place in different parts of the map, and it's more convenient for the viewer (or commentator) to watch where and what is happening. In Heroes, all the actions take place on the screen, so the so-called "observer mode" will be practically useless. IMHO.

As they say, let personal opinions remain personal opinions. Wouldn't it be great to observe the entire situation as a whole? This is what represents the main interest for me and many others (many have already spoken about the demand for an observer mode) in matches – not micromanaging zombies and dwarves, but the strategic aspect, which is not properly visible in streams. That's why no one wants to watch XL+U because it's hard to figure out what's going on. With an observer mode, it would be completely different. Moreover, with an observer mode, viewers will have the opportunity to watch any game of any tournament (and not only), which is already very cool, because even the finals are not always streamed at the moment.

...a real breakthrough would be...

a real breakthrough would be the ability to play online with centralized server management, where none of the opponents would have the opportunity, even theoretically, to view the save file, because each player on their computer would only have the information received from the server at that moment in the game.
there should be absolutely no possibility to continue the game without an opponent.
without this, Heroes will never become an esports discipline.

spectating and streaming – it’s all nice, cozy, and so on, but it has its limits in development. and we are somewhere near that limit right now.

In the lobby, it might be useful to combine A and Ctrl+R to view only the opponent's turn (so that the bots don't waste time).

But there are very few who would be motivated to join the Opera chat for this (as I suggested). To put it bluntly (ladies, step forward) - it's a complete zero.

The lobby server, by the way, could change things in the world of professional heroes – if it allows creating tournaments directly there. If the organizer only needs to set the initial conditions and rules, and registration, drawing of lots, posting of results, etc., are done automatically. This would save people from a lot of hassle.

Hello everyone. I've encountered a problem: I had Windows 7 x32 installed and could play Heroes 3.58f without any issues. I reinstalled to Windows 7 x64, and that's when the problems started... First, it was missing Mss32.dll, I downloaded it... then binkw32.dll, we managed to fix that... now I don't even know what to do: "ResourceManager::GetSample could not find the "sfx" resource "button.wav"". Basically, it won't start at all. I downloaded Heroes 3.58 ERA. Same problem. I downloaded HD... same effect. Can anyone suggest what I can try? I really love this game, but now it won't run on x64.
