Source Code Found!!!

Since the source code of the game (Heroes of Might and Magic III) was found as you can see here...


https://twitter.com/diskblitz/status/920801845349466113



Why Ubisoft not released yet the expansions (Complete Version of the game) in HD?


It would be the definitive version of the game. And since it's just some minor changes and additional creatures and campaings, it's easy to make.


Come on Ubi, make us old gamers proud. I wouldn't mind paying for the expansions...


Please guys, let's make our petition reach Ubisoft developers. Help me!

They should release it under a free OSI-/FSF-approved licence instead.

I believe this was discussed a while ago already too. The Twitter post is from 2017. The guy can't release the source code he found out onto the public on copyright laws and whatever. I doubt Ubisoft is going to allow it to go public, let alone condone it.

The thing is I just saw this now, because the community seem not to be engaged for this release. That's why im mobilizing people to pressure Ubisoft to release it, since they have the code now.

annoyingly rather than leak it on a sly with a white hat the guy was very Peter Perfect to publicly hand it back to corporate monolith rightsholder who will probably stuff it as a drinks coaster or under a toilet seat or somewhere, thus we will not get that lol

also bear in mind the HD thing was very low quality so do not bother with that cheers lol

I would rather support idea to contact the guy and make him pass under the table the source to HotA and/or WoG teams. That would give better effects than getting anything from Ubi.

Absolutely. Not giving the source code to the fans of a 20-year-old game, instead of a company that botched it's attempts at continuing the franchise, is an abomination.

What a useless idiot. Might as well discover long-lost originals of the Bible, and give them to a snake-handling lunatic preacher in the Bible belt.

What does giving the source code to Ubisoft even accomplish?, probably nothing. Their HD version is crap that's for sure.

The pre-screwed graphics transfer wasn't bad. But that's not something they can take credit for.

Maybe he still secretly keeps a copy of the code and under-the-table negotiation is still possible now?

if he actually does have a copy, and he sends it to me, i CERTAINLY WON'T release it to the community...

only a CRIMINAL would release that kind of content that was bought and PAID FOR by a company/corporation.

if anyone would be so kind to send him my way, so we could further discuss the said content's NON-RELEASE to NON-CORPORATE TYPES... i would be much obliged...

I don't think they won't do it, out of disinterest on that game and focus on new games.
