Still amaing to me that people like me are out there who are still fan of the game.
Since my customized maps are not working with the rise of the mod I’m still more than happy to use the HD mod.
Questioning if I can get my original resolution back for ingame view or if it stays smaller? Or maybe it’s my hardware…
Looking forward to an answer.
I have a problem with this patch. When I launch the game, after publisher intro, there’s like 1 min pause, then black screen appears and the game is stucked. I need to minimalize it, then it starts properly. Weird thing is the problem occurs only in Gallean’s Return. Rise of the Elves works fine.
Any ideas how to fix it? Reinstalling did not solve the problem.
I have CD version of the game. My OS is Windows 7.
Here’s the video showing the issue:

So there is descriptions, installation instructions, pictures… The only thing i can’t find is the ACTUAL DOWNLOAD LINK for the mod. Where is the mod?
Hello, in the second paragraph there is a download link: https://heroes3wog.net/disciples-hd-mod-download/
Hey, what is max resolution for disciples 1 provided by this mod?
doesn’t work with the steam version on windows 10 at all. It only works with the gog version.
Since Verok’s blog is down due to the war is there any other mirror available? WoG folder is gated behind a paywall it seems.
Hi, what do you mean? The files are hosted on mega.nz, no account or payment is required to download the mods.
