This short script helps you installing and running Heroes of Might and Magic 3, HoMM3 HD edition and Horn of the Abyss (HotA) on your older Macbooks. I recommend you to download the two offline HoMM3 installer files (~1 GB) from gog.com (I assume you have the game).
The project's goal is to automatize this well-written install guide.
1 - Open the Terminal (hit Command+Space
-> type Terminal
and hit Enter
).
2 - Enter the following command:
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Peneheals/ihhh/master/install_homm3.sh)"
Enter the below command:
cd "$HOME/.wine/drive_c/GOG\ Games/HoMM\ 3\ Complete" && wine HD_Launcher.exe
If you have any feedback (feature requests, bug reports, problems etc.), feel free to open an issue here. Please upload any related screenshots (maybe to Imgur) and link them in the issue.
1 - Download the code.
2 - Click on it to unzip.
3 - Check that it is in the right place (I assume your downloads go to your home's Downloads
folder).
4 - Open the Terminal (hit Command+Space
-> type Terminal
and hit Enter
).
5 - Run the script with ~/Downloads/ihhh-master/install_homm3.sh
command.
Use with precaution! It will wipe everything!!!
curl -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Peneheals/ihhh/master/install_homm3.sh | bash -s -- -u
To uninstall just your HoMM3 related stuff (deleting your ~/.wine directory), use this:
curl -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Peneheals/ihhh/master/install_homm3.sh | bash -s -- -uh3
