Title: Free Heroes 2 ported to AmigaOS 4.x
Post by: Johan Samuelsson on February 06, 2009, 02:16:21 AM
1.5 years later... the struggle is over...

Porting for Profit presents...

Free Heroes 2 - a Heroes of Might and Magic 2 remake.

In the process I fixed SDL_Mixer to support MIDI playback.
If you want music support in the game it's very important
that you download and install the fixed GUS Soundfont (http://www.os4depot.net/share/audio/play/gus_soundfont.lha). It comes with a simple installer, I suggest you use it.

The game requires the original Heroes of Might and Magic II game data.

The game is in pre-alpha state so many features are missing still, but it's getting more playable every day.
I will keep maintaining the AmigaOS 4.x version, so stay tuned for future updates, and most of all, HAVE FUN!

Download the game: fheroes2.lha (http://www.os4depot.net/share/game/strategy/fheroes2.lha)
