Question - Solved Modding problems

New to modding and tried to get the game on my new computer with HD mod and Hota but it doesn't seem to work. I downloaded of GoG but it looks like it's formated different than in the youtube tutorials on the matter for some reason and the mods don't seem to find the game.

I alsow found multiple download links for the mods and am not quite shure and am not shure what the right ones are.

Any advice on what I am doing wrong would be appreciated

Yes I did select the "games" (Spiele) folder from the first picture via the "browse" feature after download from the site. Only shows steam library, Warcraft 3 and sid Meiers pirates, all of them having the same icon as shown in the tutorials which is why I suspekt a formating issue.

Forever ago I alsow think I was able to add a mod by dragging the mod file into the game file, but that does not seem to work either

Well, I don't see any HOMM folder on your first screen. Check where you've downloaded it or reinstal it where you need it.

You need to select Heroes And might of magic folder specifically so you installed it somewhere else
