< Overview >



HoMM 3 HD is a non-official fan made add-on (multi-function patch) for Heroes of Might and Magic 3.

  1. Initially, the add-on was created to extend the original base game resolution (800x600) to support larger resolutions, but now it has even more features.
  2. HoMM 3 HD does not affect the original gameplay. It improves the interface functionality, makes it more comfortable to play and fixes some original game bugs.
  3. All the tiny graphical improvements preserve the original game style.
  4. HoMM 3 HD does not affect the original game files. This means that you can launch the original version with no changes from the very folder where the HoMM 3 HD was installed.
