Which can be found in gamedir\profiles\default_profile\user_a2.cfg

and also in my documents\mygames\username\tribes\profiles\user_a2.cfg

I can't remember which one affects it though.

Thanks for the help!

Hey guys. I haven't played H5 in quite a while and was wondering if there was any way to speed up the AI turns? I recall there was a special code that we could put in to do this (but at the cost of "dumbing down" the AI). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Appreciate the detailed response and links, guys. I think I'll wait it out and see if I can get it at the official site sometime in the future. I'm very tempted to purchase it off the French Amazon site, but I've been spending too much of late. Many thanks though!

I've been out of the loop for quite some time. I was wondering: where can this complete edition be purchased? I can't seem to find it on eBay/Amazon. Is there a DVD version available as well?

They look more like graphics from I dunno Myst circa 1992. They aren't very detailed. Does anyone know what I mean by that? Yes, mine is like that as well. I don't see any other solution other than waiting to get a new video card or eventually a new computer. I really think the Sylvan town in parti...

Run away! Run away!

So I put the file in the .PAK folder and now it works. So I guess this file only works for HoMM5 and not for ToTE. Although the lightning does help, it doesn't look like the pictures I see on the internet of sylvan towns. How does this file work? Apologies for the late reply, but I've been away. Um...

Hmm, that's very odd. It seemed to work for me. I do not think it is a RAM issue as I only have 512mb myself, and I'm running it on a 3 year old Toshiba Satellite laptop. Please try copying the .pak files and pasting it in the "data" folder (or "dataa1aa" folder if you're trying ...

I have a couple of .pak files that could help with both the Sylvan and Academy towns, but they won't fix the lighting problem 100%. Just drop the files into your Pak folder. You can find the files here: http://www.esnips.com/web/bulkhead72sStuff Please let me know if that helps. EDIT: if that doesn'...

Yes, it seems like it'll come out tomorrow here in California as well. Ugh, I've never been the most patient person...

These are, by far, the best looking alternate upgrades. They should've stuck a beard on the Magma Dragon while they were at it .

My girlfriend was really into H3 for the longest time. I'm sure she'll revisit it sometime in the future. Besides that, she's a Sims and Tekken freak!

Is there a more disappointing spell than Word of Light? I build up my guild hoping for Resurrection only to get stuck with this useless spell. It is pitifully underpowered for level 5 and highly limited in its application. The only thing worse is that lousy ring that counters it. They should defini...

That being said, I'd be curious to see the alternative peasant upgrade. The alternative peasant upgrade might have a longer rake-like weapon, so that it can attack from an extra hex spot away, thereby escaping a retaliation strike (much like the Pikemen from H4). This feature might mean giving the ...

We know that TotE will have new spells. Which spells would you like to see return? Any speculation on what "new" spells we might see? I, for one, would love to see atleast 1 new spell for each level and school of magic. Dark Magic could use a Hand of Death-like spell, for example.

The official announcement concerning TotE mentioned new spells, artifacts, buildings, and ofcourse the new faction, but nope- no mention of new neutrals. I, too, would love to see more neutrals in the game. The Medusas, Harpies, Pegasi (to name a few) will be sorely missed. P.S. The Ice Demon could ...

Some excellent ideas there Adicto. Hopefully the actual alternate Necromancer upgrades on the new expansion will be half as creative.

That's the funniest thing I've heard all day. Thanks for the laugh .

Hello all. I really haven't been keeping up with my HoMM news, but I read that Tribes of the East (if they go ahead with that title) will be the last we hear of HV? I was hoping for an additional expansion after this stand-alone product. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thanks.

The news about alternate upgrades is the best thing I've heard in a long time! Hopefully, it'll play as good as it sounds. Fingers crossed.
