Question: Heroes of Might & Magic V does not save games properly.

Answer: You will need to create an alias of the Saves folder, where save-game files are stored. This can be found on the following path

~/Library/Preferences/Heroes of Might and Magic V Preferences/p_drive/My Documents/My Games/Heroes of Might and Magic V/Profiles/profile_name/Saves

...where profile_name is the name you gave yourself when setting up a profile for your first game.

Question: My online key is not working. Why?

Answer: We do not know why this is happening. Please contact the developer, UbiSoft, directly at http://www.ubi.com/US/Support/Default.aspx

While you're at it, you may also like to make an alias of the Saves folder, where save-game files are stored. This can be found on the following path (this time, not inside the Heroes application):

~/Library/Preferences/Heroes of Might and Magic V Preferences/p_drive/My Documents/My Games/Heroes of Might and Magic V/Profiles/profile_name/Saves

...where profile_name is the name you gave yourself when setting up a profile for your first game.

 

I CREATED THIS FOLDER AND............incredible!!!!!!! it work!!!!!!!!!!
