heroes3.ini => Debug=1 => upload eralog.txt
Then turn off option "Additional battlegrounds" as a temporary solution.

It just looks so annoying that the game takes little space in my screen and leaves the rest just black
I think I did not understand this comment until today, when something changed on my laptop (maybe some Windows or Dell update). I am not using the HD mod, and until today my Heroes screen fit my wide-screen laptop screen vertically but not quite horizontally, leaving thin black stripes on the left and right sides, which never bothered me. Today (without any changes to my Heroes installations) the Heroes screen has shrunk so that it covers about half my laptop screen, with large black borders on both the top and bottom as well as the left and right sides.
Changing my screen resolution from 1280x800 to 1024x768 had no effect, but changing the colors from 32 bit to 16 bit did. At 16-bit colors, the Heroes screen now fills my laptop screen completely - so now it is wider (and broader in aspect ratio). I had this same effect on an older computer with a wide-screen monitor, so I am used to it and it also doesn't bother me.
There must be some display setting which restores the classic aspect ration while using as much of my laptop screen as possible (since I had that yesterday). Anyway, my point is that problems with black borders and aspect ratios may be fixable by playing with your computer's display settings.

Yes, but I don't like to stretch the game to fit my screen, it breaks the graphics and overall looks bad. Being able to play the game in full screen with many other bonus additions is a dream come true.

i have this aspect ratio problem in winows 7 not XP. under windows 7 no matter what i chhose as my display settings the game is in the wrong aspect ratio. the weird thing is, it is also displayed with two black vertical colounms like it tries to display 4:3 ratio on 16:9 but the display is still streched. (squeezed to be more exact.) i thoght the hd mod would fix this with so many options but no, i still cant see a proper game display under windows 7.

Just open the HD mod setup and click the "Set desktop resolution" button, and no part of your screen will be left unused.
This discussion doesn't belong in this topic, though.

Hi. I'm experiencing a bug with ERA and I really want to know how to fix it. Every time I start a map with Era, it shows an error message which says something about line 55 and a string which is alredy used. It asks do I want to save dump file to wogchrashlog.txt. Whatever I click, the message keeps appearing for some time, then it stops. Also, Halfling and Phoenix mods don't work. Phoenix has new music and screens, but nothing new appears ingame. Also, SGA and TEW 4 mods seem to work fine.

1. Please unsure that you have Era 2.4 installed on SoD/Complete (not 3.58f).
2. Set heroes3.ini, Debug=1 and upload eralog.txt after game run.

My save is broken. When I end my turn, and enemy ends his, I get crash at some situations. One, when I want to move, second when I click mithril info, and third, when I try to save. My map works on custom WoGification. I think, I can find more crash points.

here's something strange. i keep my saved wog settings in a folder named wog options. i used to keep the folder in this destination:
era 2.4/Mods/Wog/Wog Options
today i noticed when the folder is placed like this i cant save a new setting into the wog options folder. i had to save it to the desktop then move it manually. i changed the destination of the folder as:
era 2/Wog Options
i can now save new settings into the folder again.

Artu, nothing strange. Mods contents (from mod folders) are read only to the game. The ERA readme states directly that mods folders in ERA mod system shouldn't contain files which are to be changed by game - if mod depends on such file it should go in main filesystem.
So mods can contain settings.dat file but it would be read-only (it could contain default settings used for the mod).
Also it's better not to modify ERA_DIR\mods\wog directory contents so if you artu (or anybody else) do some fixes or addditional content to work with wog, place it as new modfolder - else you may get problems from the changes and nothing states you have additional or changed files - you may even forget by yourself. The only useful way, I can think of, of editing ERA_DIR\mods\wog folder contents without creating new modfolder is to force zvslib to load some content (zvslib seems sometimes ignore era mod system mechanics) - if you are not modding such weird areas the ERA_DIR\mods\WoG folder should be untouched and main filesystem should have not changed oryginal files (but may contain new ones, like config files for the mod - some ini txt dat and similair files + some plugins perhaps would need custom binary config files?).
PS: Bersy could you instruct us how to prepare own version of zvslib.bin? I've read it is for redirecting zvslib.dll calls to hmm35wog.pac in the wog modfolder. If somebody do a mod heavily dependent on unportable part of zvslib.dll he/she won't succeed without modyfing wog modfolder or preparing own version of zvslib.bin. Notice for non-Bersy people: difference between zvslib.bin and zvslib.dll is very important and I of course understand it (it's not a mistake I used both in same text).

majaczek, zvslib replaces a dozen of "h3sprite.lod" strings with the same size "hmm35wog.pac". You can open the bin file with any binary editor and you will see the text. Feel free to change. But anyway, my point of view is that we should better do DL-replacements for zvslib dialogs in the future. Like MoP did.

"- First Aid Tent is Killing my Henchman"
"- This is normal for WoG )))"
i never play with a henchman so i got curious and tried, the tent didn't kill my henchmen, it cured him like any other creature. what exactly is this, is it an old issue or is it a sort of feature with some kind of different setting?

WoG team weren't amateurs, the bugs if any, occur in rare situations, regardless special abilities, bufs, or custom scripts. Of course is not normal that tent kills henchman, I heard about a few times but couldn't see it myself.

Of course tent's resurrection kills the henchman, not healing. For that, obviously, you need to use any war machines script.

I found something: game doesn't crash without HD mod. After end turn I saved game without crash. But when I used HD mod again, game crashed at save loading. Before problem appear, I played in HD mod.
