![]() ![]() ![]() It appears that in VirtualBox one has the opportunity to forward ports from host to guest with network adapter in NAT mode, similar to port forwarding on a router. At first I worked around this by changing virtual adapter from default NAT to bridged mode, but this made my system unstable (this was more than year ago, maybe it is resolved now).įew days ago I got pissed by GameRanger again and started to look for another solution which would give me the ability to play direct TCP/IP. GameRanger works no worse than in physical machine, but direct TCP/IP quit working. Some time ago I moved my Heroes III gaming environment to a virtual Windows XP machine running as a VirtualBox guest on FreeBSD host. With this settings the game crashes some rare times when I engage a battle. And use XP Compatibility mode (of course). If we use HeroesHD mod the game crashes often when my friend sends data to me.īut I have found that all works fine if I share the Heroes3 folder giving full permission to "Everyone"!Īh. My Homm3 is installed on a PC with Windows7x 64 and my friend has a PC with WindowsXP. And if you want to use HeroesHD with the previously mods: Scripts that don't work in the same way as the AI are disabled. Scripts that don't work in a "network battle" are disabled. * I use "Original Wog Chests" because if I use "WoG Revised", in a multiplayer match the "New Treasure Chest 2" script have a lot of bugs (orange chests are empty). Heroes3 + Era 2.4 + these Mods in this order: I haven't tested the game with Commanders because I and my friend don't like this feature.

Select the first 'folder' on the left (HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT) and open find box (Ctrl + F or Edit -> Find)ģ. Also, the ID is used as a part of filenames, so if it contains special characters (such as *, regedit)Ģ. It turns out that HOMM3 generates a three letter 'Unique System ID' which is used to identify players when playing online. So, I finally had time to fire up my debugger and see what's wrong. This was an interesting bug, because my friend didn't get the error even though we had exactly the same version and patches of HOMM3. I had the same error but I managed to fix it. I also saw on the web other people having the same issue and they got even another file with a different name. When my friend begins the scenario, my game crashes and I receive a message like this one, except its another file: What exacly i should do to fix this problem?
