Post by Ark-Impulse » Sat Nov 02, 2002 7:19 pm

hi, i was trying to install DWX but when i copied the icon there was no target line or anything dscribed in the installation guidelines and im sorta clueless about this stuff...can someone point out what im doing wrong? this is what i did : dled the mod, then i madea DWX folder and unziped the mod into the folder. then i took my diablo2 icon and copied it onto my destop. then i changed its name to DWX and when i clicked properties it had a buncha crap that wasnt in the description. im on windows 98 second edition if thats the problem...

Here is a better explanation

Take your original D2 icon.

Right click and drag to another spot on your desktop.

Release the RMB.

Choose "Copy Here"

Right click the copy, choose "Properties"

Then follow the rest of the install guide.

When you copy your original icon and right click it for properties you then click change icon, then get the new icon. Then click ok , then you will be able to right click it to get the properties.

:) Oh the joys of Darkness Weaves.

I cant help you with your icon problem other than telling you to CAREFULLY go over the instructions just ONE more time.

You are the first to have an issue with it AFAIK.

Sorry I couldnt be more help.

I finally got it working but i didnt copy my diablo2 icon, i just made a shortcut and all that title line and directory stuff came out...are you sure you mean 'copy' instead of 'create shortcut' ?

I can copy an existing icon and edit the target and start locations.

Either way should work. Well, at least you got it running. :)
