Heroes 1 in Windows 10!!!

Unread postby Iangb » 22 Apr 2023, 15:03

Hi people! I've managed to create a Windows Installer for Heroes of Might and Magic 1 that fits perfectly in Windows 10!!! It comes with Havok GL Wrappers already imbued - actually, is an ISO file with the game installer plus the original files. If anyone is interested, please contact me in ian.gil.barddal@gmail.com. I will create a Google Drive link for those who become interested. And if you don't speak English (less still Portuguese haha), don't worry: it is a multilanguage installer. Thanks!

Congrats!

Fuh, maybe it would be a good idea to equip it with some check, if the game is installed, prior to running the installer. Also you can contact gog.com, they might be willing to incorporate it, as an extras. ;)

Wouldn't I be disrespecting copyright laws if I do that? It's a very good idea, but I am afraid of violating laws, you know.

As of GoG?

Nope, they are authorized reseller, official distributor for Ubi Games. So, if they would accept that (Which is beyond me to guess, some people complained, that it's impossible to reach them. But they are using such extra for older games pretty normally. I would also expect, that they reach for copyright holder and get the agreement from them directly. Or not. Which could explain, why they sometime don't react.)

A strange thing have happened with the installer I developed: I can save and load my games, but I can't find my savegame files...
