and copy m3 files to the: “your_H3SW_v0.8.2_folder”\Mods\The Succession Wars 0.8.2\mp3″ folder

Music packs for Heroes of Might and Magic III: The Succession Wars allows to change the musical score of the soundtrack. Heroes of Might and Magic II can be considered having three soundtracks as town themes from the vanilla H2SW and PoL are different as well as having a MIDI soundtrack.
The “Complete” folders contains all the music needed in the game. Thus, the Complete SW folder is the standard music folder and the Complete MIDI contains all known MIDI tracks.
The other folders (SW, PoL and MIDI towns) contain only music for the original H2 towns (+ main menu in MIDI folder as well).
The last folder is rather special as it contains covers of H2 music performed by the magnificent Heroes Orchestra, which is a Polish group dedicated to the music of Heroes.
Much thanks to Heroes Orchestra for allowing us to use their beutiful renditions in-game.
Currently the list of Heroes Orchestra covers is:
– Main menu theme (SW + MIDI)
– Battle theme (HoMM I)
– Warlock theme (SW)
– Necromancer theme (PoL)
– Knight theme (SW)
– Wizard theme (PoL)
– Sorceress theme (SW)
– Grass theme
– Dirt theme
– Swamp theme
– Snow theme
– Desert theme
– Lava theme
