20 Most Recent 3DO Heroes of Might and Magic 4 for Windows Questions & Answers

Hey guys, I was looking for the solution for a few weeks and I might have the solution(s). One is Gameranger which is a program to play older multiplayer games. Quite simple to use but if you have a router you have to forward the 16000 port (UDP). It should work. But it doesn't you can also try Tunngle so you don't need port forwarding anymore. Tunngle has lots of bugs so it can take a time while you can force it to work well but it's a well-known program and it's much easier to get help about it than to get help about a twelve years old strategy game's multiplayer feature.

it probably has a path (d:\) or something like it. If you use the same drive as you did with disc 1, try hitting ok with that as the path. It should work fine.

Run the game in compatibility mode it will help surely.
Right Click the game then choose TroubleShoot Compatibilty then click Start Program

Thank You friend

get the real copy of the game and it will most likely work or get a no cd crack from gamecopyworld.com

try run the game in compability mode and/or admin mode and see if that fixes, most of the times its just 'cuz your game doesnt have the privileges to save

I have Heroes of Might and Magic 5 Running on Win 7. There were many patches to install before this title worked(on my computer). Have you installed all the available updates for it?

Here are 2 sites that have the compatibility options:

If that does not work, you can also try to set up XP mode in Win 7: (Note: you need to have Win 7 Pro, Enterprise, or Ultimate for this one) Win 7 Home Premium does not support XP Mode.

i dont know how to play this game...........................................................................................................................

Hello,

Your using Windows OS 7, which is fairly new. This is great for programs but not for games. Heroes 4 is a older game, so there are some compadablility problems.

As for your memory and HD space you should be fine since the requirements are low.

Solutions: Look for programs which allows you to run virtual OS of pervious generations of windows (such as windows xp). This should solve your problem. Otherwise if you have 2 HDD on your laptop/computer you can make one drive into a older OS. Then run the game from that HD.

Good luck, and rate my response.

It won't update because the developer's do not make updates for it anymore. It just so old. More than 8 years I think.

I've made a tip about it. http://www.fixya.com/support/r4739247-computer_game_product_code_installation

maybe the cd key is wrong google it

You should be able to play it provided that you have at least pentium 3

Put the disk in your tray, the explore it, right-click the setup.exe, select properties, and run it in Windows XP SP2 compatibility mode.
