HoMM II Gold for DOS doesn't exist. AFAIK the GoG's HoMM II DOS release was taken from HoMM Compendium compilation released by New World Computing in 1997. Windows game release usually has full Red Book Audio support (CD Audio playback from game CD) compared to DOS rls.
This compilation pack of Heroes of Might and Magic games includes:1. Heroes of Might and Magic2. Heroes of Might and Magic II: The Succession Wars3. Heroes of
Heroes of Might and Magic II is a fantasy turn-based strategy game that takes place in the land of Enroth, a place of magic. There is a multitude of creature types, from griffins to rocs, golems to pikemen, unicorns to hydras, and four different dragons. Each castle type has six different creatures, from the weak to the strong.
Drop both dlls from this zip into the Heroes of Might and Magic 2 (Win) folder. If the game starts windowed, hit F4 to enter full screen. You may have to quit and restart to get the audio working (sometimes if the game starts windowed the CD audio won't work, just make sure the game starts fullscreen). F9 will toggle between scaling modes.
Tarnum: I say that GoG release emulates DOS version of the game from Heroes of Might and Magic Compendium Compilation released September 15, 1997. The Heroes II Bundle from this compilation contains both DOS and Windows versions of the game (The Succession Wars with Price of Loyalty expansion pack) on a single CD (2 in 1).
