Patch 1.5 is Out

[Angelspit]

It appears that patch 1.5 for Heroes of Might and Magic V has been released. Launch your auto-update program and let the Ubisoft servers do the rest.

[finkellll]

wats new? im sure theres a thread in the forum but im lazy so ill just ask here

[Falsted]

So this has nothing to do with Hammers of Fate then..or what?

[Elvin]

Just for original H5. There is a duel editor and some other goodies as a battle replay.

[asandir]

or not?

[PhoenixReborn]

The patch worked for me. I haven't got the time right now, but the duel editor looks fun provided we can impose some rules on it.

[Wraith]

so do anybody know when comes patch 2.2

Does it disable all mods like the 2.1 for HoF too?

If yes i can't wait to install this gem :-P !

I have installed patch 1.5. At this time I was replaying the original campaigns - specifically I was playing the Necromancer campaign, mission 4 "The Regicide". At the end of the campaign the game crashed. My hero (Markal) with the current stats didn't carry forward to the next mission. I restarted this mission from the beginning and again at the conclusion of the mission the game crashed.



Has anyone else encountered a similar problem since installing patch 1.5? Can anyone recommend a solution?



Thanks

Yes it does. I was using a moddefied difficulty level which is now no longer working since installing the patch.

I had the same problem with mission 4 "The Trap" of the Haven campaign. I was replaying this campaign on the Hard difficulty level and after the cut scene I got a message that I had completed this mission and then the game crashed. In the game menu mission 5 was not accessible, so it seems I'm stuck thanks to patch 1.5!



Is there anyway I could go back to patch 1.41 without reinstalling the game?

[King Imp]

Don't you just love patches that screw things up? Nival's new motto should be "One step forward, two steps back."

@dylanfan



That's exactly what happened to me. "Mission accomplished" then crash. In my case I have access to the next mission but its not my newly customed hero but a previous built hero.

For those who haven't downloaded it yet - particularly those on slow connections - the EU edition patch is 55MB in size (I would guess that other versions would be similar). I go the patch, although since I will probably be playing H4 for quite a while (1 campaign down, over a dozen to go...), there will probably be another patch before I get to 5.

The patch has been working really well for me, ive noticed that large 6 to 8 player maps no longer slow down for me anymore... in 1.41 they used to become unplayable after 30-45minutes. The changes to necro are also good. However i dont like the changes to haven, mainly because i suck at playing them.

[dylanfan]

I had a problem with mission 4 "The Trap" of the Haven campaign, which crashed after completing it on the Hard difficulty level. Luckily I found a solution. From the campaign menu I restarted mission 4 on Normal difficulty and after finishing it I could move on to mission 5.



It seems the patch caused problems with the mission I was working on when I patched and that restarting solved the problem.

I have had Heroes V and Hammers of Fate for a while, but have yet to install them. I think I will wait until the next milenium to install them though. Maybe by that time Ubisoft will have all the problems, issues, etc. worked out - or maybe not.
