Step 1 : Installation
You can update your play by installing the patch until the 2.2.,
if you want to play with the original play (for games apart from league)
To play in league, you must have Equilibris 3.51 to install!
NB: You can download EQUILIBRIS and to have the explanations of its installation here
Summary of the installations (for the French Version only):
Beware, respect the order of the patchs strictly!
(patch dowloading while clicking on each "Update")
-I have H4 :

Update 2.2.
-I have The Gathering Storm :

The play isn't to update for the moment because it's into 3.0 of origin.
Step 2 : To find an opponent
Then for that there are several solutions. .
(cf
"to find an opponent)
The first consists to go on the
Players
list and send a mail.
However don't send a mail no matter whom. To check that the player isn't inactive
by looking at the "
liste des matchs"
Second is to write a message
on the forum with a clear title.
Example : Darkcatt available for a H4 game, Wednesday AM and Thursday morning.
Beware! For that you must be registreted
on ezboard (manager of the forum)
Thirst,
to come there on the chatroom..
Changez votre pseudo de la façon suivante afin de faire
savoir que vous voulez jouer :
Pour cela, tapez dans la zone d’entrée de texte :

here
Step 3 : To play !
2 possibilities :
*You create the game and your opponent joined it.
- To launch the play
-To go in "Multijoueur" (Multi-player) and to select "héberger"
(host game):
-Once clicked above, appears 3 choices :
- Game spy
- Direct TCP/IP
- Lan (IPX)
To click on Direct
TCP/IP : you come here :
A table opens with several boxes to fill :
- server name/nom du serveur = to register your nickname
- player name/nom du joueur = to register your nickname
- password/mot de passe= you can let it empty ( if you want to protect your game by a password,
it will be required of you later on).
- number of players/nombre de joueurs = it's better to write "2" in the case of a duel in league,
but if it's 2 or 6 it doesn't matter..
- Game Port/ Port= By defect, it wrote 4377 , change it only if you know
that this port isn't valid.
-To make "créer" (to create) a new game(or "charger une partie (to load a game) if you continue
a game) and to select a map (or the save)
that you have choose with your opponent.
:
You can dowload maps
here.
After having created a game,
you come on a table with several things to configure :
- guards stationed or moved ("gardes stationnés" for the league)
- the level of the play (expert for the league)
- to limit the time (2 or 4 min in league, more if you are agree with your opponent)
- password = once your opponent is to click it on this box to protect the game.
You will need your 2 passwords to open the game in order to avoid any form of cheating.
- choose yours colors and once your opponent and you are agree,
to validate your choice while notching the box near your color.
The game is ready. It's necessary now that your opponent joins you there.
- For that, turn over under Windows (made alt-tab with your keyboard),
to give your address IP to your opponent.
Address IP is a number of 4 numbers separated by points, which (to make simple)
identifies your PC on the Web.
If the IP given by the play doesn't function,
you will check it in several ways
1) You will obtain it by
clicking here.
2 )Order MS-dos=> ipconfig
3) For AOLiens if the IP given by the address starts
with 195, it isn't the good IP. You must go on
"help of the AOL page" and to write "ctrl Y".
*You join the game that your opponent have created.
-To launch the play.
- Go in "Multijoueur" (multi-player), and select "rejoindre" (to join)
-Then "TCP/IP" >> you see that :
- Enter the address IP which your opponent will have given you while clicking on direct TCP/IP :
Don't forget the point between the numbers.
-You will find yourself on the screen of selection of the castle and
will be able to speak with your opponent about the options of play:
*The options :
-The time : like you want, if you aren't agree >> 4min.
-the creatures wandering : like you want, if you are not agree >> fixed creatures.
-the castles: also like you want, but you don't make have:
- You have a window to speake to regulate the last agreements on the last table
(that where you can choose your colors). It's located in bottom table on the left.
Step 4 : To play !
In the play, to discuss, you will reveal
the window to speake with the F2 key :
Syep 5 : to defer the result of the game
You are best world and no one can beat you:
it's
here.
You are the future better of the world and soon,
no one will be able to beat you :
it' here.
Beware, put of agreement on the date of the game, especially if you play
the evening and defer after midnight, there is risk of error.
Well, well !
For all questions, send me a mail, go on the
forum H4 league
good play !
And remember you : Play for fun !
Heroes IV Team
NB :
- For your first tests of connection, try to make it with someone who
already played games. Like that, if you have problems, you know that it comes from you.
It's not the case if you are all news.
- The digital keyboard doesn't function well on h4. Indeed keys 4,5,6 don't function
well in the window to speake or to type the IP address, prefer the horizontal digital keyboard
on the top of the alphabetical keyboard.
- Others informations are on the forum helps of H4:
