a lot of the time when im playing heroes 3 complete with my friend one of us needs to take a break to eat or something, so both of just leave the game opened so we don't need to rehost. we both have heroes 3 complete.
i have noticed that almost everytime we have waited for about 15 minutes or more, after the other person comes back and ends their turn, there almost always is an error sending data. this happens so much that only until recently we just save the game instead of leaving it opened.
i was wondering if any of you guys have had this problem
*side note*
have any of you guys EVER had it work when you click "keep trying" after sending/receiving data fails? it has never worked for me

I heard about that problem sometimes. It always happens after 1 player gets "active", which happens after about 15 minutes. This seems to "force" the router to close his dataline (just a wild guess), and then u get a "error sending data".

is it possible to play with the same copy of heroes or do we need 2 separate copies to play online?

Only 1 cd is needed...for the host. The joiner doesn't need cd, just the game installed.

Just realized that i can't enter Gamespy lobby with windows vista.
Mods there told me GA doesn't support the new Win.
Thought to share it here for future reference.

angelito, about my question on top of the page, ive read that about every second question is nearly the same one, but there is no way the game is going to let me and my friend connect to each other. im not sure what could be the problem, since other people can join my game but i cant join his game.. the router/modem we are using is a speedtouch, and im not sure what else to do than open ports on it.

You say other people can join your game. Are these other people able to join his game also?
Is he able to join your game?
Some more things:
Try to forward those port ranges (28800-29100 and 2300-2400) both TCP & UDP.
You said u both updated your versions to 1.4 (version 4.0). This is confusing. You either have version 1.4.0.0 now (which is the latest version of restoration of Erathia), or u have version 4.0.0.0 (which is Heroes Complete). maybe u both check your versions again (rightclick H3.exe, properties, version) and see if it is updated or not.

It works perfectly on Vista... tho some other useful things for Heroes 3 gamers don't work, like Game-spy Arcade..

...My copy of heroes is not original!!
Is that a problem or something else??
Yes, this is the problem. The patches you've used worked fine on all files BUT the heroes.exe (h3ab.exe for Arma..). So your version is updated, all u need is a "new" exe file. It is not allowed to talk about those files here on the board though.
Contact me on Gamespy when you see me there. Same nick.

You don't need any "skill" to use hamachi. Just download it, install it. Then create a network (give it a name and a pass) and send this info to your opponent (who has hamachi installed aswell). He will enter your network in a second.
Or come to gamepsy and get step-by-step help from hamachi users there.

Hi everyone!
I got problem playing Heroes 3.50(3.2.0.0) online(via TCP/IP).
The problem is that the game freezes after 1.5 - 2 hours of playing
and I have to reboot my computer.After that I can play for about
10-15 minutes before the next freeze.Turning off firewall didn't help.
Hope someone here can help me.
Thanks

One observation:the game seems to freeze only on large maps(L,XL).
On small and medium maps there are no freezes.
May be it has to do something with the amount of information being
transfered?Any ideas?

Not that weak I think.
May be it's for the lack of diskspace 'cause I've only 1Gb of free
space on a drive with the Heroes folder.

definitely not on the pc but have you tried xl maps in single player? If they lag in it too then it is mostlikely the low amount of space. Windows uses a lot of virtual memory itself. Test with more space or single player xl maps.
You have Win XP right?
