H3: "abnormal program termination" in AI turn
I regularly play a game of Heroes 3 against the AI, and sometimes, on some maps, i get an "abnormal program termination" when the computer AI players have their turn.
This can be very annoying, since it will happen again when i reload the autosave game, meaning my game is ruined, unless i reload a save from a while back and hope it won't turn out the same (this helps sometimes).
I've searched the internet, but couldn't find a solution, or discussion on the same problem. I hope anyone here can help me!
Thanks in advance.

I had the same issue in former times when i played the Addon "Armageddons Blade" (could also be it was "Shadow of Death instead...canīt remembver exactly). My problem was, i had 2 different language versions of Heroes installed. When i remember correct, i had a german RoE version and an english AB (SoD) version...both not upgraded.
After i installed both version with the same language AND upgraded them with the latest patch, this error message never occured anymore.
The latest versions are:
Restoration of Erathia: 1.4
Armageddons Blade: 2.2
Shadow of Death: 3.2
To check your version, just rightclick your "heroes.exe" file (or h3blade.exe if you have Armageddons Blade), chose "properties" and then the "version" tab. There you can see your version.
If u need an upgrade, you can get it here.
Keep us informed.

Hey, first of all thanks for the reply!
I've version SoD 3.2, and as far as I know all in English.
To localize the problem I revealed all map with cheats, and found a hero of green, that was to turn, stood still, and the crash appeared.
To allow my game to continue, I did this:
new hero, cheat unlimited move, lots of arch angels, kill the crashing hero, return, restore fog of war, reveal explored world again, dispose of the hero, save
It's snow, but at least I can continue my game. From my experiences this usually happens somewhere mid-game, so the AI hero to dispose of doesn't ruin the gameplay.
Still, I would love to understand the problem, and hear of / find a true solution.
