Hi everyone, me and som friends have been playing HOMM5 TOTE v3.1 over hamachi but have trouble trying to load the game after disconnect or even otherwise. Also can't seem to play downloaded maps only random generated ones. The error message said something about Checksum errors. Anyone know a fix for this?

Usually it means that one of you have downloaded a map with modifications and the others have not. This creates a weird error, because the game thinks you have incompatible versions… the solution is simple: Delete the downloaded maps, or make sure everyone has them installed!

Hope that solves the problem!

Ok, so if I'm understanding you correctly if I have a downloaded map in my Maps folder I'll get this error even while playing a Random generated map?

Yes, it "may" cause this error (even if you're playing a randomly generated map), but only if the downloaded map (in this case - not the one you're playing) has "special" coding, and only if you're playing against another machine/online player without that map…

If you're playing a randomly generated map, then I'm guessing you're playing multiplayer on "one" machine? If you are, then this is probably not the reason for your problems.

Hope it helps/(made sense)…
