The Heroes Round Table

Assuming it works.

I have a question about H1 codes. Do they work? From my experiences only one code is correct - to reveal entire map. And if so, can somebody make a movie for youtube if they work??? I was surprised also to learn that there was more than 1 cheat code for H1, because I only knew of the map reveal che...

Ohh, looks like they didn't bother making Lord Haart his own portrait for H2, which is very weird considering they already did so for H1.

Oh I never knew there was this special cheat in H2. So that's the exception (the only non-numbers cheat in the first 2 games).

Yea it's strange, isn't it?

He makes appearances in H1 to H3, but his H2 portrait isn't in the Gallery below.

It's been decades already and my memory fails me, but did Lord Haart make an appearance in Heroes 2 at all? If yes, what was his hero portrait?

I seem to remember his Heroes 1 portrait, and his two portraits from Heroes 3, but I can't remember what his Heroes 2 portrait looks like...

I recently heard this song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dg_YueZ4fi8) for the first time and realised that it could have been the inspiration for Heroes 2's map reveal cheat code. Does anyone know the origins of the other cheat codes in Heroes 1 and 2? (I'm grouping H1 and H2 together because the...

In Heroes 2 and 3, are there any ways to create a path that is one-way only?
In other words, once heroes move beyond a certain point on the terrain, they cannot move back the way they came from.
Thanks.

Just tried that, but no change in what happens.

There is always a Setup.exe running after I click the game I want to install or if I manually run the individual setups. But it never grows to more than 2k in memory, and it does nothing. It just remains there and I have to close it manually (end process) using the task manager.

Ya I tried that too, and it results in the same thing (nothing happens).

I've tried to install Heroes 1 to 4 from the DVDs in the Complete Edition set, but nothing happens when I click on the game that I want to install. The DVDs do autorun, but nothing happens when you try to install the games. Heroes 5 installs normally though. Did anyone else have the same problem? Th...

Oh ok. Thanks all for clearing things up for me.
I'm someone who likes to have complete collections of soundtracks though.
Looks like I have to buy the H2 Gold edition to get that 1 different track.

What about the midi versions of the music? Are those found only in the Gold edition? Are they found in the game directory/folder after installing?

So apparently, owning the "complete" collection isn't good enough.
I am quite confused now though.
What are the ways to get ALL the Heroes2 music? (This includes the CD tracks from The Succession Wars, The Price of Loyalty, Gold, & all the midis.) What exactly do I need to buy?
Thanks.

Does H2 Gold Edition contain stuff that isn't in the Heroes Complete Collection (that big white box)?

I've never seen the MIDI versions of the other themes anywhere before (I had looked for them last time but to no avail and then I forgot about it). But I have a file that I downloaded a while back which is an mp3 of the MIDI version of the main menu music. It's the music that you hear when you enter...

Thanks Vlaad!

Hi. I used to play Heroes 2 from around 1996 to 1998 (when I was 12 to 14 years old). During this time I visited a website called astralwizard.com frequently (I also visited that site for a while after Heroes 3 came out but I can't remember for how long). Unfortunately, the site seems gone now. I wa...
