majyss: Hello. I Can't install any mod for HoMM3.

I have DL Complete eddition of HoMM3 on gog (4.0) but when I try to install in the same folder, the HD mod 5.0 beta 38
I have the following message:

"HoMM3 HD must be installed on Heroes of Magic and Magic III SoD or Complete. Selected folder does not contain required Heroes of Might and Magic III files, so installation of HoMM3 is impossible"

Same things for the Hota 1.5.1

I dont understand why because i've got the COMPLETE GOG EDDITION and i'm doing the installation on the right folder

I saw only one post on the forum about a simile topic , from TheSly03 , Posted December 06, 2017.

Any Help plz ? I want to play HD complete eddition...

KardFett: I had the same message and everything pop up, and I figured out why. For some reason, when you run the HD mod installer, it doesn't default to it's current location, but rather the location it thinks the default instillation for HoMM 3 is. As such, it's looking in (C:\GOG Games\HoMM 3 Complete\) when it should be looking in (C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG Galaxy\Games\HoMM 3 Complete\). As soon as I told the installer to look in the right directory, it worked perfectly. This may be different for people who don't have GOG Galaxy installed, but for those who are using GOG Galaxy, double check the directory it says it's looking for HoMM 3 in.
How can you say to installer where to look? I just have OK button in this popup.

I installed HD mod a few days ago, it gives you the foulder search to change it.
I download the HD mod dont remember from where but i wanted only HD mod with no modifications in stats like HOTA or something else, just HD.
Dont have a problem with it

Thanks for all those who helped and sorry that I forgot mine was a STEAM game not a GOG (as I also have GOG's HOMM2). I'll try your suggestions.
I can't really explain anything, but after getting frustrated that my installation might not be correct (despite checking the folder path multiple times, installing inside the main folder, etc.), I just reinstalled the game again without uninstalling. When I ran the HD mod installer after doing that, 'it just werked.' Maybe this weird suggestion will help someone else out, too.
