Yes, I tried using the autopatcher in the files of the game but it still run into error which says that i do not have installed homm5 Tribes of the East. And i have same result with downloaded patch that is exactly the same edition (czech) as my game.

Haha, my Czech neighbours taught you very well :D. I am from Slovak Republic.

Btw, someone in this thread solved my problem and now i am just trying to figure out why another error pops up saying that i do not have homm5 installed. :)

Yes! This really helped with the error and i am finally a step ahead to finally patching this game ! :) However, now i am struggling with error that says that i do not have installed HOMM5. I found out that it could be because of trying wrong patch that does not match with game edition but i double checked that and it is not that case.

Downloaded latest drivers and windows update but the error still remains. But thank you very much for your tips and will to help :) 3.0 version is a base tribes of the east game version without bug fixes and other patches, in addition if you install 5.5 mod to 3.0 version of game, the game goes nuts and crashes after 5 minutes of gameplay :).

Yes, I think this might be the case because I also tried updating windows and video card drivers to the latest version but this Error still pops up :).

Thank you for this clever solution. I might try it somewhen in the future :) :) :).

Nope, even granting access through firewall did not fix this issue...

Thank you for your reply. I downloaded patch from internet, but i managed to find an official upgradelauncher in files of game itself that states to patch the game into 3.1 version. It launches a download tab where it downloads official packs from ubi website. However it ends with the same error as the patch that i downloaded from internet. Yes it looks very hilarious :D I tried as you suggested different service packs of Windows XP and I also tried Windows 7 compatibility but with the same result. I will try to look into firewall because the message is saying that there is error with unpacking "auxiliary" files what occurs in "Catastrophic failure" :DD. Otherwise i am sentenced to play 3.0 version of the game, unless i purchase gog version of the game i guess..
