Installing Heroes III data files

1. Find a way to unpack Windows Heroes III or GOG installer. For example, use vcmibuilder script inside app bundle or install the game with CrossOver / Wineskin.
2. Copy (or symlink) Data, Maps and Mp3 directories from Heroes III to:

~/Library/Application\ Support/vcmi/

Connect to the mod repository (optional)

• If that's your first installation, connection to the mod repository will be configured automatically, you'll see mods available to install from VCMI launcher
  • We recommend you to install VCMI extras to support different screen resolutions and active various helpful UI tools
  • If you don't see mods available to install, go to settings tab of the launcher and make sure that you have correct link in "repositories" text field:
    • https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vcmi/vcmi-mods-repository/develop/github.json
