Homam 3 multiplayer 2vs2 (2computers)

Unread postby Mealiette » 18 Aug 2010, 07:18

Is there a way to play with 2 computers a lan game where you have Four players? It seems that the game itself doesnt allow for it :/ or is there another way a much easier way to just get rid of the (heroes of might and magic 3 is already runing) and just run 2 seperate instances on each computer and tab between them? THx a bunch for any way how to get this done :-)

I certainly know, that it can be done in hotseat. So a bit cumbersome way around it could be to use remote desktop or vlc or any other remote management tool ( logmein fe), where you will be virtually playing just from one computer. Though a better internet connection is required.

However I also think that it may be possible even normally. Try to edit the map before playing and set two of wannabe cpu opponets to only cpu players. Then try the map again.

Not MP player myself, so here maybe some much simpler solution still available.

Well the dual win is an option but a really long and tiresome one ... well the problem is my brother and his friend wanna play one pc and me and my friend wanna play second pc something like hooking up 2 hot seat games together the easyiest way i can think of is dualboxing homam3. That would solve everything.

If you run tcp/ip connection there is no way to add another humar if there isnt a hidden key to transform a computer into a human and even still if you join you cant join with two players.

Somebody please heeelp me get rid of the "heroes of might and magic 3 is already runing" with a sort of crack or something :(
