When I finally got it working in the dos version it looked very different to what I saw in the windows version and the screenshots as the entire battlefield had crazy weird bright fluorescent colours. Like I said in my previous posts I'd already got it working in the windows version of HoMM1 and I'd see the screenshot in this thread so I know what it's meant to look like. Haha nah mate, what I saw was definitely not intentional. If you need contrast, try to change the color of tile borders. This was an intentional decision - the grid should not be catchy, it should almost blend into the landscape. However all the colours were funny and horrible as there must be some type of slight palette difference. Ran the bat file in the DDATA folder, started the game and it worked, I could see gridlines.
The compendium version of HoMM1 is a sort of combo install as it puts the dos data files in a DDATA folder and the Windows files in the regular DATA folder so I was editing the wrong one and wondering why nothing was changing lol. I figured out why it wasn't working with the DOS version. Okay it worked with the Windows version of HoMM1 in a XP VM, I can see grids however it's slow and the CD music doesn't work properly through the VM so I'd still prefer to get it working with the dos copy.

But then when I start the game and enter a battle. I can see that my Heroes.agg file has been updated to todays date and time.
I ran showgrid.bat and I get "Operation Successful" several times and click OK for each. I downloaded H1 extracted his files into the DATA folder.
Works both for Russian (Buka/TE) and English Windows/DOS (Original/GOG) versions.Īre you sure it works with the DOS version? I can't seem to get it to work my original DOS version from the compendium CD. Cheers, yeah that's the only one I knew of previously.
