Val, that update was for 2.55 users)

Install 2.46, install the update from HC on it and use bat files to switch between versions.
Argh, for 2.55 you will also need updated heroes3.ini and heroes default settings.ini from http://rghost.ru/56413442

emm, when running editor it says 2461 run time error, with latest dll update. Reverting to 246 still error."Can't find zeditr.txt"

Can you please make a single installer, maybe the problem is adding file manually?

I can do it only on weekend, probably
Yep, single installer is necessary indeed. That's my task, sorry for delays.

Drake reported a bug in Era 2.55

Hey Sal, when play testing my map, saving isn't possible. It says
"Too small SavedGameExtraBlockSize: 4000000
Size required is at least: 4267575"

It's not a bug. He needs to open heroes3.ini and set SavedGameExtraBlockSize=6000000 at least.
Seems that someone uses many SN:W variables and perhaps play XXL (PO occupies much space). Solution is simple. For singleplayer one can turn off savegame padding by setting SavedGameExtraBlockSize=0. For multiplayer you have to increase the default 4000000 value I wrote for you

I don't think so. he sent me his map (which was not even decorated) and in era 2.46 I was able to save. When he reverted to 2.46 he also could save.

Also his list of mods (which I asked first) had no heavy scripts, almost nothing.

And in 2.46 I can play anything, even Sagamosa, with the 4000000 limit in ini, never changed. I knew about ini but before I tell him to increase value, better to see why only 255 creates this situation, I think.

Let him upload mods\list.txt and savegame.

Ok. Thank you. Last thing:

heroes3.ini, set these values:

Debug=1
Debug.DumpSavegameSections=1
Debug.Everything=1
Debug.LogDestination=File
Debug.LogVirtualFileSystem=0

Then zip "Debug" folder. Which will be created when he saves the game.

Hello guys,

First I'd like to thank you for keeping Heroes 3 spirit alive and for all the great new features. Great work indeed!

I'm not sure if this is the right place for such question but anyway...

Where can I get the latest version of ERA II?
Is the latest version 2.46?

I found several sites offering Era 2.46 but the downloaded files where having several viruses/trojans.

Where can I get a virus-free latest ERA II?

I saw that you are maintaining a site offering all the ERA mods. Would it be possible to provide there also ERA II virus-free installation download? One cannot use the mods at all without the main engine you know

Thanks again!

The same site is offering Era 2 and all the mods.

wakeofgods.org/mods

if you get trojan/virus alert from this site, is that your anti virus is bad quality, all files are clean and I am personally responsible of them. Well, unless someone hacked it, but then we would receive more than one warning.

You can also scan them online. All the exe files are openable with winrar too, the exe just has the command for installing them in proper location.

Updated original post with version info and link from russian thread.

Thanks a lot for the quick reply and for the links!
I'll try those tonight and write back.
