I just finished replaying WC3 on "Ace" difficulty and found it mildly challenging, but no real problem. Now I'm replaying WC4 and this thing is TOUGH for me on "Ace." I don't remember WC4 being this hard....and I'm pretty sure I played it on "Ace" last time through (10 years ago?). I do...
For the moment, the issue is moot because I finished WC3 yesterday. I've now moved on to WC4 where I can fully customize my stick (hooray!). I will, however, look for hacks of the sort you mentioned because they'll prove useful for other DOS games. Thanks for the reply.

After replaying the first 3 games via DosBox, I thought my problems were over when I got to WC4.....but not so.

Well, this is embarassing. :o I've just discovered I've been registered on these forums for many years under the DocScorpio user-name. It's been a while since I was interested in the WC series and I simply forgot I was registered here and re-registered a few months...
Another odd privateer problem: I've loaded the whole game on my harddrive (put the contents of the CD in a directory called "CD" in the main game directory) and run it using a .bat which starts up a program called "fakecd." With one exception, everything works just fine. The problem is I...
The native Win95 version is P2 "Deluxe Edition." While it runs under Win95 (and 98; don't know abt ME), it seems to lack a speed limiter so that it's unplayable on current high-end pc's without some kind of a cpu killer, like moslo.
