The HD-mod developer made it impossible to start the game in the lobby with
wine 6.10+ in the HoMM3 HD 5.2 R42+ version. To test, you need to use an
earlier version of HD-mod, for example from here

R41 download -

The lobby server receives something not what the client with Wine 6.10 trying
to send at some moment and disconnects the client. This is why the client
freezes and then crashes. I think crashlog attached above is useless.

The client use windows sockets 2 (Ws2_32.dll). I see a lot of changes in
Ws2_32.dll in Wine 6.10. I think this is the reason.

Now you can check on the latest version of HD-mod.
Baratorch (HD-mod developer) removed ban 6.10+ version and added just a
warning.

Wait, it sounds like no changes were made in wine for this.  I have several
questions.

- What, exactly, is this program doing?
- Is wine reporting details about itself to the program, letting the program
decide that it doesn't want to run in wine?
- If so, could wine have a mode where it doesn't report details about itself to
the program, so that programs can't make malicious decisions against wine
users?
- Regardless, what was this developer's rationale for "banning" wine 6.10 and
later by making the game crash?
- What does the warning currently say?
- If the warning is reasonable, is there work to do on wine to resolve this
warning, preventing a bad reputation in the perspective of this particular
developer and other similar program developers?

Corrective changes were made in wine.
- Description - https://www.sites.google.com/site/heroes3hd/eng/description +
adds an online lobby to the game.
- Wine reports the game its version based on which the game warns the player or
not.
- I don't know.
- The game crashes were caused by wine versions 6.10-6.13. The developer of
HD-mod first made a ban and then corrected it to a warning. So that players do
not think that the problem is in the HD-mod and that the HD-mod does not suffer
reputation losses.
- Shown for versions 6.10-6.14: "The wine $version is buggy, with it normal
network play via the online lobby is not guaranteed! Use version 6.9- or
6.15+."
- I don't know.
