WARNING: Before replacing any files in your D2 folder, back up all your original files
Hey Lenny - it's simple. Open patchstring.tbl with your table editor, click the '+' icon to add a new name, and type in the name you added to uniqueitems.txt (Len's Ring or something?), then in the other side, type the same name.
Next, create a file called install.txt that contains this:
O patch_d2.mpq
a uniqueitems.txt data\global\excel\uniqueitems.txt
a uniqueitems.bin data\global\excel\uniqueitems.bin
C patch_d2.mpq
Next create another file and type this : mpq2k s install.txt - and save this file as install.bat (batch file). Download MPQ2k, unzip it, and place it in your modding folder with the two install files, the modded uniqueitems.txt, and a clean patch_d2.mpq file.
Create the data\global\excel directory in your Diablo II folder (just add data folder, inside it put global, inside global put excel, then put the modded uniqueitems.txt in the excel folder.) Now, run the install.bat file in your mod folder, and take the new patch_d2.mpq, copy it into your Diablo II folder, and start playing for like 5 seconds and exit.
Come back to your data\global\excel folder and you should see uniqueitems.bin. Add this to your modding folder, run install.bat, and you've got a new patch_d2.mpq. Now you must copy the patch into your Diablo II directory and then play.
