(Optional) Now that the setup is over you put the expansion disc (LoD) and install it just like before.Ĭopy all the missing *.mpq files from cds to your Diablo 2 directory.Īpply the latest patches according to your install. Problem 3: Patch should work flawlessly but if you're using a pirate copy, after upgrade, it will ask for the expansion cd no matter what you put in. Don't worry, just hit the cancel to complete the upgrade process. (It may say that patching is unsuccessful. Graphics -> Unselect "Allow the window manager to control the windows" Windows Version -> Windows 2000 or Windows XP Run "winecfg" and create a new application profile.Īdd Application -> Choose "" Unzip the D2Loader to the Diablo 2 directory. Leave anything else unchanged (I assume you already set the "Drives" properly) We do that to be able to press Alt/Shift and mouse buttons at the same time while playing. UPDATE: If you want to run D2 in resolutions higher than 800圆00, try this mod: Icon=/home/cosku/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Diablo II/d2x.ico Path=/home/cosku/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Diablo II It's simply because you run it from outside of Diablo 2 directory.Įxec=env WINEPREFIX="/home/cosku/.wine" wine "C:\\Program Files\\Diablo II\\" -sleepy -skiptobnet Problem 4: You may get an error while connecting BNET saying that your exe is unrecognized. (i'm on kubuntu feisty herd 5 and this applies to wine 0.9.31+) I just thought i'd mention a few things here. I don't have to use a glide wrapper cuz d2/lod runs at full framerate/speed without the glide wrapper and i have a crappy integrated intel 845g video chip!Īnd i don't know whether anyone else has experienced this, since no one has confirmed it on the wine appdb, but it appears that there was a change of some kind with wine 0.9.31 that b0rked wine's alsa support for blizzard games. It works almost flawlessly with the oss driver tho. this still is not fixed with wine 0.9.32.
(i have an actual copy with my own cd key, not a pirated copy).
