I've finally found a crack for diablo 2 LOD that works no CD under win 98, AND works on battle.net!!!! However, I've been trying to get this to work under linux with no real sucsess, I'm using Codeweavers wine PR 4, (I've just started using this instead of the wine.tar.gz cos is seems easier to remove from a linux distro than the tar.gz version, but I suppose that's what

I'm running wine 1.2.2 and used the blizzard installer while downloading everything off of their site for d2 - No expansion yet. I tried to run d2 to make sure its working up to this point before I continue to install lod. I get an error that goes like this: Error 25: A critical error has occurred while initializing Direct3D. I thought wine didn't support direct3D and that was why I was

Hi all, I was trying to run Diablo II under WINE, but I receive a "Direct3D failed to initialize" error in a dialog box. The log says this: ***** DirectDraw error: Failed to get gamma control interface! - < unknown > (0x80004002) I tryed to run in both 640x480x16 and 640x480x8, but both give the same error message. I'm using Linux 2.4.1, XFree86 4.0.1 on a GeForce256 DDR

Hello, I have wine version 20031016 and I was so pleased that wine + diablo 2 LOD 1.10 + Battle.net actually worked !! But now when I want to enter battle.net (or any game that is) with the true game.exe (i.e. not the cracked one) the game gives me a segfault. I've tried --debugmsg +all but that didn't give me much to work with :/ Does anyone know what went wrong ?? It plays just

I cant really seem to find a definite answer: there's a bunch of stuff written on the subject, but nothing definite. "I've got it half way working" seems to be all I can find. So, has anyone gotten it working fully? I'd love to be able to run this without having to install windows... that would be a pain having to reformat etc etc etc... thx

As the title mentions, full screen mode does not work with Diablo 2 while using Glide Wrapper, but it does "work" for Direct3D (it's incredibly choppy/laggy though). Another problem: In window mode, it runs very smoothly, but if I happen to click outside of the window, Wine freezes and I have to terminate the program. I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 and using the latest wine

Hello, I am running Wine 1.0 under Fedora 9 x86_64. The problem is that the two mentioned games use a lot of CPU power about 50 % on a 2 Ghz Core 2 Duo. At first I thought this is caused by GDI DirectDraw renderer, but changing to opengl did not help. Also, it is just the same when you configure Diablo to use Direct3D renderer. Does anybody has any idea where can I look for the source of this

I am having difficulty getting D2 w/ LOD 1.12 to run in colour through wine. I am running a ASUS eeepc 701 w/ the cpu running at 900mhtz and 2gb of ram. OS is Ubuntu 9.10 netbook edition and the game is installed on a Western Digital Elements 1tb hdd connected through usb 2.0 and I had to install the GLIDE3toOpenGL-wrapper v 1.4d to get it to run at all. The game runs fine, considering the

List, I have been trying to install Diablo 2 using wine with the latest stable. I read the tutorials on it and it seems that I need a file from gamecopyworld.com. I believe the file is called fdxd2019.ace. I am not able to find this file anywhere on that site. Is there a workaround for this, or does someone have a link to this file.

Hi, I've got a problem considering wine, and no one seem to be able to help me at my distro-forum, so I'm trying this. This is my problem: I having some difficulties running Warcraft 3. I have several games running flawless in wine (Diablo 2, Starcraft, Fallout and others), but running warcraft 3 is too slow. I have seen in other threads on this forum that one needs opengl to run it

Just got wine 2005 01 11 installed.. Trying to install diablo 2.. Problem is that whenever I run the install.exe, I get a box that pops up telling me to "Please insert the cd labeled "Install Disc"" which is the cd that I have mounted and am running the install.exe from.. I've tried copying the whole thing to my harddrive and trying it that way, but I get the same results..

Hi, I am trying to compile wine in an AMD64 Ubuntu machine, taking the precautions needed shown in the winehq's wiki to do it. The compilation finishes fine, but for some reason there is no support for some things that used to have in the i386 pre-compiled package. One of them is ALSA sound. I use ALSA because for some reason OSS sometimes ruins the sound making it look like a loud scratch

Ok, I've tried wine with about 10 different aplications and it always returns SOME kind of error... and it closes... the only one I can run without ANY problem is DiabloII.... not even half life runs on wine... Using wineX didn't solve any problem.. in fact I think it it even harder... Any idea why wine won't work with virtually no game at all??? thanks a lot -- Alan Bort Linux

Everywhere I look people are just saying that Diablo II runs perfectly on wine without any problems. I installed successfully, but when I insert the play disc, my screen resolution changes and in the corner I can see one white letter with a black background that is constantly changing not apparently spelling anything. After a while this stops, and I can't do anything until I restart X. I am

Hi, After setting the windows version to winxp I managed to install this game without a problem. Playing however is another matter. It appears it can't find the CDrom. I'm using the deb-packages from winehq (version 20050111) in a sid chroot on an AMD64 pure64 install with kernel 2.6.8 (Debian package 2.6.8-10). I copied the config file from the sample in the documentation and only

Hi, Anyone that might be able to help me get this running for my son, I would greatly appreciate it. I AM computer literate, but unfortunately for me most of my 20 yrs in using computers has been windows based. switched to fed core a few months ago, love it, but its extremely frustrating not being able to just RUN something... theres alot of effort going into just getting a program to run. after

Hi, at first i have to mention, that i am an freshman in Linux. I am working with it since half a year and still trying to get the basic-knowledge.

But when I start the setup.exe with the 'Wine-Windows-Emulator' an dchoose the installation-path, only an video-sequence starts, then it returnes to desktop. When I
