HoMM 3 HD mod does not change the original gameplay (except it fixes artifact selling bug).Ĭompability: the Shadow of Death, Complete, WoG, TE, WT, and some other SoD/WoG/TE-based mods The 3D clips like the intro are now boxed off into a tiny square, instead of remaking them in 3D or upscaling them.HoMM 3 HD mod (aka HiRez mod, Multi-Resolution patch, HoMM3 High Resolution Project) is a community-created* addon pack for Heroes of Might and Magic 3 that changes game resolution to any from 800圆00 to 4000x4000, adds new functionality and fixes some original bugs. For better or worse, the game is almost identical outside of the graphical upgrade, except that it now runs fine on modern systems (which the HD mod may or may not do). The sounds are the same, all the controls and quirks are the same. I guess technically they upscale THOSE graphics to whatever resolution you’re running.Īnyway: As for the rest of the game, they didn’t change anything (as far as I can tell). Something to note here: the resolution is effectively 640×480 (or whatever HOMM3) was originally, in that when you go down to the original graphics that’s what you’re seeing on screen. There’s an option in the menu that allows you to toggle between the HD and the original graphics, and the difference is pretty crazy. It’s very nice – if you ever played the Halo Anniversary edition and saw how nice it was and thought “ah yes, this is exactly how I remember it” and then press the button and see how much worse the original actually looked, it’s like that. The HD Release DOES graphically improve the game. Otherwise, the game is the same as ever, and you have all the expansions and all that entails to play.

The HD mod does NOT graphically improve the game as Logan might have implied with this line “if you want to enjoy HoMM III in impressive detail”, all it does is allow you to fit more on screen at once.

I bought the full version off of GoG a year or two ago, and I was using the HD Mod until it stopped functioning and kept crashing a turn or two into the game (bloody russians) but this may have been fixed in more recent iterations.

You can turn off most of the HoMM 3 HD features using HD3_Launcher.exe utility.

Plays sounds in the game in a parallel thread (that speed up game actions).

Plays music in the game in 44 kHz stereo instead of the original 22 kHz mono.

Uses newer versions of libraries Mss32.dll and Mp3dec.asi (that prevents frequent game crashes on some PCs).

Detects and automatically fixes map errors which occurs during playing the game (read more…).

Fixes some original bugs (non-gameplay bugs…, gameplay bugs (HD+)…).

Adds new functionality for tournament play (read more…).

Extends the functionality of the standard windows and control elements in the game (read more…).Adds 32-bit color mode support (read more…).

HoMM 3 HD changes game resolution to any from 800×600 to 4000×4000.

800×600 original game still works as it should after HoMM 3 HD installation (no need to make any copy for backup).

The 10MB unofficial patch, once applied, will add the following features: Once you have HoMM III, waltz on over to the HD mod’s page on Google Sites and hit that download button. I should note the HD mod isn’t compatible with Armageddon’s Blade, but that’s not so bad - the Steam version has no expansions at all and costs $US16.95. The “Complete” edition is available on GOG for a paltry $13 (Australian dollars) and includes the Armageddon’s Blade and The Shadow of Death expansions.
