#Diablo 2 cd key not working Patch#

i didn't install d2/lod for a while cuz whenever i'd stick the install disc in it would just keep asking me to insert the disc, even while my drives were properly configured AND i was using an actual copy! this made me really frustrated for a while. (i have an actual copy with my own cd key, not a pirated copy). this still is not fixed with wine 0.9.32.

#Diablo 2 cd key not working driver#

it works almost flawlessly with the oss driver tho. 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!ДЄnd 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. (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. UPDATE: If you want to run D2 in resolutions higher than 800ењ†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.Д®xec=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. 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. 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.ДЄdd Application -> Choose '' Unzip the D2Loader to the Diablo 2 directory. (It may say that patching is unsuccessful. Don't worry, just hit the cancel to complete the upgrade process.

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. (Optional) Now that the setup is over you put the expansion disc (LoD) and install it just like before.Д¬opy all the missing *.mpq files from cds to your Diablo 2 directory.ДЄpply the latest patches according to your install. Weather you type 'wine eject' in the console or you just run 'INSTALL.EXE' by double clicking it and choosing 'wine' as the appropriate application. If you run 'INSTALL.EXE' form a bash command when the setup asks for you to change the disc, you won't be able to eject it because bash is making the cdrom busy. Problem 2: Here you may have an other little problem. A quick fix is to selecet 'Emulate a virtual desktop' from winecfg.

Problem 1: A very common problem here is that the progress window blocks the CD swap dialog so you think that it doesn't install anything. (It's a good idea to choose FULL INSTALL)

Put the INSTALL cd and run the 'INSTALL.EXE'. UPDATE: With newer Wine versions running Diablo 2 + LoD on linux is much more simpler, here is how I do it.Дiablo 2 and/or LoD (I used a pirate copy, but hey I have my original cd keys)Д2Loader for 1.11b (Website here ()) EDIT: It looks like Blizzard started to ban D2Loader users.
