Diablo II: Lord of Destruction is an action RPG expansion set to the 2000 sequel of Diablo, Diablo II.


Windows

Multiplayer

Patch is currently at version 1.13c, which allow play on Battle.net and also a skill respec option.

Patching to version 1.12a is recommended for the use of the high resolution patch.

High resolution support

D2MultiRes

This utility (.exe launcher for Diablo 2) provides a menu to launch the game at any resolution (above the default 640 x 480). Only works with version 1.12a.

Windowed Mode

Mostly used for playing on Battle.net where the D2MultiRes patch is forbidden. You can set the game to run in windowed mode by adding -w in the shortcut for the game, just outside the quotation marks. E.g: "C:\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe" -w

Battle.net Verify Error

If you are unable to connect to Battle.net on Windows Vista or 7, the problem is that the installation folder is a location which requires administrator access (i.e. the default install location, C:\Program Files\). To fix this, either run the game with administrator access (right click on link, click on "Run as administrator") or install the game to a non-protected folder (such as "My Documents").

Where to buy
