07/15/96
INSTALLATION
- Copy the files labeled "PATCH.RTP" and "PATCH.EXE" to your current
"HEROES" directory on your hard drive.
- Double click on the PATCH.EXE file just copied to your drive.
This will automatically patch the HEROES.EXE file and the
EDITOR.EXE files. Your old games will still work, just play as
usual.
WHAT THIS FIXES
The following problems have been fixed with the current version of
this patch:
In the Heroes game (HEROES.EXE):
- The cursor is updated after the computer players take their turn.
- The cursor now knows when it's over a castle.
- The first monster you control in combat won't do unpredictable
things.
- Your opponent, when using the Identify Hero spell, can no longer
view you as well during his turn.
In the Map Editor (EDITOR.EXE):
- Occasionally certain mountains and forests that would cycle now
don't.
- Saving a map without viewing now only saves once.
If sound and video driver problems still occur after installing this
patch, you should contact your sound or video card manufacturer for
an update to their drivers.
If you have any problems with multiplayer support, most likely its
due to configuration and connecting procedures. If so, contact our
Technical Support at (818) 889-5650 from 9 AM to 12 Noon or from
2 PM to 5PM Pacific Standard Time, Monday though Friday or email us
