then close xterm and launch the game.Code:root cp /home/user/MyDocs/heroes2/DATA/* /opt/fheroes2/files/data/ cp /home/user/MyDocs/heroes2/MAPS/* /opt/fheroes2/files/maps/
Hm that never happened to me. Perhaps it's on that particular map? The XL maps have a tendency to crash. Mine usually crash at load though.
When you enter the castle, because the castle view is 640x480, there are margins showing the map view behind the castle view. Can there be something done about it ?
The maps files are mp2 extensions, so i get a lot o files in my music player in unknown section and it bothers me. Can there be something done about this as well ?

If you want to keep them in MyDocs and feel adventurous you can just edit
/home/user/.config/tracker/tracker.cfg
and add
$HOME/MyDocs/fheroes2/;
to the end of line that looks something like
NoWatchDirectory=$HOME/MyDocs/core-dumps/;$HOME/MyDocs/cities/;$HOME/MyDocs/.sounds/Ringtones/;$HOME/MyDocs/tmp/;/media/mmc1/tmp/;/media/mmc1/cities/;
assuming you keep the map and data files under MyDocs/fheroes2
after that reset the tracker with
tracker-processes -r
as user in xterm.

When i tried to copy files just like you told me
cp /home/user/MyDocs/_Byta/_Games/Heroes 2/DATA* /opt/fheroes2/files/data/
and i get
cp: omitting directory '/home/user/MyDocs/_Byta/_Games/Heroes 2/DATA'
and i have a feeling the copy didn't work
i have rootsh installed
i first tried to type root
then tried with sudo gainroot
i get same message. What's the deal ?

If the tracker.cfg stuff doesn't make sense, then perhaps it's best leave it alone or read up on it. There are several threads about hiding files from tracker that might help you. Type tracker.cfg in the search field.

Traker ? Is that the "thing" that adds files to music player ?
Can i modify something so that it doesn't add certain directories?
I could really use that.
Can you point the link where i can further read about it ?

I installed the game to the opt/fheroes2 directory before the .deb package was available - Can I just keep it updated by using the latest version in the repo, installing it with the application manager? Or I need a whole new installation?
Btw, I've played it a lot by now and encountered almost no errors at all. I disabled the debug mode by myself...
I'd REALLY like it if somehow there could be an option to do "Load game" in the middle of a battle, and in the map itself it'd be really nice to have an option to view the treasure map (the one which can be viewed by touching the obelisks).
Thanks mece!

Edit the NoWatchDirectory line and add your path to hide.

Efect, both things actually present in the game.
"Load game" in the middle of the battle wasn't available in original game as well (neither in heroes3), but you can retreat and load afterwards. From map view, you can load by pressing floppy disk button in the right pane.
And you actually can look at obelisks map - this option is under "flag" button in the same right pane.
As for updating the game - I successfully updated the game from app manager, and both data files and game saves survived this update. So I believe you can update from app manager as well.
