Online Play Tips:
- Disable Shared Stash!
- Eastern Sun comes with a basic Stash Switcher, but I've had issue with it working.
- I have written a replacement Stash Switcher which you can find here.
- Alternatively, you can go in to your ..\Diablo II\ES300r\Save\ folder and rename _LOD_SharedStashSave.sss
- Everyone leave EXCEPT Host.
- When the Host leaves, all others drop.
- This can lead to other players not saving.
- Force save before you exit:
- One way to make the game auto-save is to wait a set period of time.
- Another 'trick' to force the auto-save feature is to quickly change Acts:
- Visit Act 1, Act 3, Act 5, Act 2, Act 4, Act 1.
- Order is not important, but the above keeps you from visiting adjoining acts which may help the auto-save.
- When using Hamachi, set it to pop up Chat windows.
- By default, all messages are suppressed and rather difficult to read, but with a quick setting change, you can fix it.
- Also, setting "Play a sound when new IM arrives", which is right below, is helpful for when you're ingame.
