| How to install and setup Heroes Launcher with ERA 3 (WoG) | |
Heroes Launcher is the successor of the popular ERA 3 Launcher. In its new version, it will offer you much more and with easy installation of modifications. With a few clicks you can install ERA 3, HotA, HD mod, MoP, VCMI or the Might and Magic Arcomage card game.
You can easily install ERA 3 modifications via Mod Browser.
Help please, when trying to install it says “No connection to server”
Heroes Launcher is missing download resumption function, meaning, if download speed drops to zero, it forces us to resume downloading from beginning, which wastes a lot of time.
*edit*
Seems it can be resumed from the place it left too, yet it’s annoying it has to be done manually, by pausing and unpausing.
Also I can download on browser at up to 300kb/s with this sh*tty connection, while the Heroes Launcher downloads only up to 70kb/s – why ? Are you limiting download speed ?
Does this also install the HD MOD as well or does that need to be installed prior to this?
One other issue, I do the install and just as shown in the video and when I try to play the WoG the Campaign for WoG is not there just RoE, AB, SoD and Heroes Chronicles, well Heroes Chronicles is not there it just lets you load it if you have the files.
the old WoG campaigns are not yet compatible with the new versions of ERA 3, so they are missing. If you want to play the campaigns, download this build: https://heroes3wog.net/wake-of-gods-campaign-build-for-playing-wog-campaigns-only-and-nothing-more/
yes, it already includes HD mod
Hello. I try to launch a launcher through a Crossover on a Mac and I catch an error “The program HeroesLauncher.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close”. Maybe any ideas? I downloaded from GitHub only an exe file and bottled it in the same bottle as I have HOMM3 GOG version.
Hello, I’m from Ukraine, but now I’m in Germany, when I was in Ukraine, I installed heroes 3 era without any problems without fear of getting a fine, so I want to ask if I can also install mod era here for free and legally through the launcher, if someone knows the answer please tell me.
Hi Dima, installing Heroes Launcher is completely free and you don’t have to worry about any fines. The only thing you need for installation is the GOG version of Heroes 3 Complete (can usually be bought on GOG for €2.39).

Got it, thanks for the reply
Hi, after some time luncher stop works. When I start the lucher icon on task bar showing up but lucher window dosent show up.
Hi, this could be caused by an antivirus blocking Heroes Launcher. Try turning AV off for a while and then start HL.
Still the same.
Have you tried a clean install? Delete everything completely and install again?
Yes, its very strange. Its works perfectly and one day stoped. AV, clean instal nothing helping.
Email me at admin@heroes3wog.net and we’ll figure something out.

Third upgrade mod makes ai slow . 2.18.2 version is stable and works fine
Long AI turns are caused by Third Upgrades mod (and how to partially fix it)
This new launcher is unplayable for me, AI takes 15-30 sec to make turn on day 1, with old launcher it takes less the 1 sec, anyone knows how to fix it? 🙂
I you use Third upgrade mod and its is updated to current version it makes AI slow not nessery launcher. It works fine with 2.18.2 version and atm TUM seems to be looked at by creator
Long AI turns are caused by Third Upgrades mod (and how to partially fix it)

I managed to install the launcher, but then, when I try to install a game, immediatly after selecting the location of the complete hmm3 from GOG, I have a “no connection to server” error message…
Не начинается загрузка модов, из-за чего, как исправить, подскажите?
Hmmm, somebody managed to open this launcher with Winlator on android device?
It crashes all the time …. Why we need to change from the previous Launcher ?!?!
Watch the video. Also, the new launcher adds a lot of capability, flexibility, consolidation, etc. It makes adding mods easier. The interface is easier.
I wish they’d actually consolidate all of the HoMM and MM games into one single launcher, though. Like the “Might and Magic 6, 7, 8 merge based on mm8 engine” mod, available on the Celestial Heavens forum. It would actually simplify this website (heroes3wog.net) a ton as well.
As for crashing, I had that initially. Had to do some troubleshooting. Once that was done, everything was smooth. Still there are some bugs regarding the WoG scripts not executing. Growing pains, teething issues.
same i cant run h3era.exe
anyone has the same issue?
I uninstall all previous versions of ERA 3 / ERA 3 Launcher. Then make clean installation of Heroes Launcher. Use it to install ERA 3 and everything will work.
Im an IT guy, just to mention. I have a GOG version and followed install stpes above and Im facing same issue, not possible to start a game from launcher. I click Play and nothing happen. I made a few clean reinstalls and its still the same.
When I first run Launcher, install ERA mod, Im able to click on Play and run HD Launcher but when I close HD Launcher then Im not able to run that launcher by clicking on Play. I turned off ESET antivirus and allow all network traffic just to be sure nothing is not blocked.
All drivers are up to date, Windows 11 PRO newest update: 22631.4112 .
I made a virtual machine with W10 22H2 and follow all steps to install ERA/WOG and everything is working fine withou any issues.
So there is an issue with Windows 11 or some W11 update. I troubleshoot it a lot today and nothing worked.
Thanks for the heads up. I will find out with the author of HeroesLauncher how the compatibility with Windows 11 Pro is.
After upgrading from the previous version, I cannot load during battle in WoG (I can in HotA). I could before. I have the latest versions of the launcher and HD mod. The is set to 1 in era.ini. Does anyone else have this issue?
