if you get all the patches and install them right, you will get practically no crashes (i got only 1 the whole time a played that version, which was like 30hrs or something)... so you don't have to worry about the game being unstable at all

I only had 2 crashes my whole time and that was before he sent any patches. The mod is GREAT. and if I can figure out how to install them, you guys can.

"If you claim to have made something idiot-proof, along comes another breed of idiot" I believe the saying goes...

I've tried folowing the instrustions, and I have found myself completely lost. I'll admit right now that I have no real clue on coding and such to help me... so here is my troubles...

I downloaded and put in the files into my diablo2 directory... made a shortcut and added things I found here to it... it looks like this in the 'Target' line:

"C:\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe" /dll "C:\Program Files\Diablo II\SGRuneMod.dll" -direct -txt

It seems to work fine... I start into single player, make a charactor.. but when the game tries to load, I get some sort of error and the game must be shut down.

I am running the full version and have applied the patches.

If anybody could help me out (and explain it as you would to someone with few computer skills :roll: ) That would be appreciated. Thank you.

READ the command line. Why are the directories different?

I warned you that I was an idiot, didn't I? *laugh* I even supprised myself with this one...

Thank you, my problem is solved...

rofl to be honest, I did the SAME thing when I finished downloading it when beta testing... I uninstalled diablo and was in the middle of installing when I looked at the short cut. After that, I smacked myself, fixed my short cut, and kept installing :mrgreen:

Hmm...A gameplay question:
How do I use a rune with an item?It's different than in earlier versions,where you had to use the horadric-cube.I right-clicked on a rune and then clicked on an item,but nothing happend.I used several runes on several items,but nothing worked... :roll:

Quick question here. I just downloaded the mod and it seems to be running ok, but I'm at quite a loss for exactly what to do. I realize the post above mine said to read the readme... but there is no readme to be found in any of the files I downloaded, nor could I find it on the website.

Can anyone give a hand here?

So um... no one has the readme or any instructions they could point me to or email?
