Target: Heroes of Might and Magic III Complete · matching decomp · C++

Matching C++ reconstruction of Heroes of Might and Magic III Complete rebuilt with the original Visual C++ 6.0 SP3 toolchain under Wine, treating retail bytes as authoritative so owners can study and eventually port from their own executables.

Relationship
Independent reimplementation

Evidence scope
Upstream README states a C++ reconstruction of Heroes of Might and Magic III Complete (HEROES3.EXE) with retail bytes authoritative, supply-your-own executables, and a reported Windows match of about 99% (MAX). No REA involvement is claimed.

Know before you try
Not a drop-in playable remake by itself — matching research build. Mac reference and remaining unmatched functions/data still WIP. We have not independently tested it.

Status
Active matching research; Windows EXE ~99% matched (MAX)

License
CC0-1.0
No Ubisoft/NWC game binaries or assets redistributed — bring your own legal HEROES3.EXE / related files. Distinct from fheroes2 (HoMM II) and free-heroes4 (HoMM IV).
