Sorry but I am completely new to mods. I recently downloaded Cubaholics and unzipped the "data" file then copied it into my Diablo file but I doesn’t seem to work. When I click single player it freezes and an error message appears. What I was wondering was, did I cut and paste the 'data" folder right? If somebody could give me a step by step instruction of how to install the program it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Copy and paste the data folder into your Diablo2 directory. Now run the game in -direct.txt mode.
How to run the game in -direct.txt mode
Make a copy of your Diablo2 icon, rename the copy to something like d2 mod or whatever then right click on the icon and click properties and ad -direct -txt to the end of the target line
Like this "X:\path to your Diablo II directory\Diablo II.exe" -direct-txt
Example this is my d2 shortcut "C:\Program Files\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe" -direct-txt

Well I did what you said and it no longer freezes. However nothing in the game has changed. Will a message appear when Cubaholics loads successfully or else how will I know? Because I am almost certain nothing has changed.
Re: How to install cubaholics?
If I guess you will not notice any changes. This because Cubaholics has added a lot of new cube recipes. But havn't made any graphical changes. The best way to test if it works is to try any of the recipes that are new for Cubaholics.

Well I downloaded the program again and this time it worked. But I was looking through the Phrozen Keep Archive and saw that Archon's Horadric Mod v1.13 has even more mods that I was looking for, but when i tried to click the "download" button, no page came up. I was wondering if somebody could provide me with a direct link to somewhere I could download this program.
Thanks again for the help with Cubaholics.

Thanks for catching that goof! I posted quite a few new file links to the database (long story), and on that one I had some extra stuff up front. The link is corrected now and shouldn't cause any more problems. (I am not guaranteeing FilePlanet won't cause problems...)Do the right thing. It will gratify some people and astonish the rest.
