SHA-256 — the public masters
HOM3 ships as one build per platform — Windows, macOS, and Linux. Compute the SHA-256 of the file you received and match it to your platform below. If it matches, byte-for-byte, your copy is the genuine, untampered HOM3. If it doesn’t — do not install it, and tell us.

How to compute your hash
Windows (PowerShell):Get-FileHash .\HOM3pc.zip -Algorithm SHA256
macOS / Linux (Terminal):
shasum -a 256 HOM3mac.zip
Compare the output to the line for your platform above. Case doesn’t matter; every character must match.
These are the hashes of the public packages — the unmodified product, identical for everyone on a given platform. The macOS build is a ~2 MB online installer (it fetches its dependencies on first run), which is why it’s smaller than the Windows and Linux builds; that size is correct, not a truncated download. Your license is a separate signed file you add afterward; it carries your name and never alters the package. After install, confirm your footer reads “Licensed to [your name].”
