I had a dream today that the next patch was announced to be released at 21.11.2017 (if i remember correctly) and I was wondering why they wouldn't wait for the new year with the update.

Needless to say, it was a very happy moment ^_^

I was wondering how to play HOTA mod online and if there was some program like gameranger that runs well with it. If there is, would the simultaneous turns mod also be compatible? Thanks

HotA crew created an online lobby in multiplayer section for that. How come haven't you heard about it?

in the new version (5.0) of the hd mod, you can play online easily, without additional 3rd party software. click on new game > multiplayer > online lobby.

Is there any chance to play original RoE/AB/SoD campaigns in HotA without incompatibility bugs, eg. wrong videos/no dialogs?

it's only available with HotA, not with H3 Complete.
See the thread for HoMM3 HD mod for screenshots

Kudos to the crew for the impressive work!

Hello! I'm a new user of the forums, and a newcomer to the heroes 3 community in total! A friend and I picked up this game and we found the HotA and HD+ mods. Absolutely amazing! When I saw this thread yesterday I got amazed. Is developmwnt still ongoing?? If so, what's coming?
Thankful for any answer! ☺

@Twoots Welcome. Developers rarely come here and answer questions. You better go to online lobby chat and ask a moderator(anyone with colored name). If you're lucky you can even chat with baratorch himself.

I've checked the lobby and I have to say that the game with lobby is mega awesome!! Very good job.

One very small issue... may keyboard is customized for german language. Is it possible to switch keyboardlayout to "de" "gr"? Can this one combine with a language pack aswell in one mod? I still volunteer to translate the game to german language.

I recently changed OS to linux. I can run HotA under Ubuntu, however the map-editor(HotA) closes 1 second after initialized with "Wine". I have tried everything that came to my mind without success to make the map-editor work. For comparison the SoD editor and Campaign editor work perfectly. Anyone with linux knowledge here??

Hm that's weird, I can run hota mad editor through wine without any trouble, I don't remember tweaking it after install either... Maybe something wrong with your libs?

In my dynamic link Libraries there is only 1 file that is override - d3dx9_27 It is set for native,builtin load order. I had the same issue when the d3dx9_27 was not activated as well. It could be that my problem comes from the fact that my linux installation of H3 HotA is a copy-paste from windows one.

Do you installed your HotA directly on linux? Probably I should go for reinstall or something.

Situational like melee attacking by long range units to change position.

Imagine situation like that:
You have 3 dragons left and 50 minotaurs vs 22 fiends. Wall is damaged. Dragons cant probably kill this fiends but can destroy wall to help minotaurs go in. It's risky because of field of mines. But u can sacrifice dragons destroy wall and kill fiends faster without starting a new turn so enemy towers cant shoot, enemy cant use imposion

I need help, is there a way to enlarge existing map? I have some maps that i like but most of them are XL sized. That or something that can copy the map layout and paste it on a blank Huge/XH/Giant sized map. I've been searching for the answer and i seem to find nothing.
