|
|
Hello.
I've heard that some people were able to get D2: LOD to run using only Wine and not WineX. Since WineX is not an option on FreeBSD (it's not officially supported and doesn't build) I was wondering whether there is someone who could post his Wine config file and briefly describe the installation process. Thank you.
P.S: I assume using Wine instead of WineX forces you to use the software renderer ? |

Software renderer? With Diablo??
Never heard of that...
But at least I was able to play Diablo2 with WineX and since Wine doesn't support DirectX no way I'd say (or something great has changed during the time I didn't check their progress) |

The guides I read online also had DII running under Wine, and it looked fairly simple. I couldn't get it to work either.

Just run the installer from the diablo2 install disc with wine, then run the lod installer.
The 1.09 patch also run with wine, but not the 1.10
To run the game, run wine game.exe
You must have DirectX mouse grab enabled in wine or lod dont work.
It runs better in wine than in winex |

yep i have d2 lod runnig with wine.
I had d2 lod installed on my win partition, but left "Path" = "${HOME}/.wine/fake_windows"
in .wine/config.
run wine D2Vidtst.exe , select either of the 2d options. and you're ready
make sure these are in ~/.wine/config
"Desktop" = "800x600"
"DXGrab" = "Y"
i also use a script so i can play on bnet.
Code: |
#!/bin/sh
cd /mnt/c/games/Diablo\ II/
sudo mv -f Game.exe Game1.exe
sudo mv -f Game_crk.exe Game.exe
wine "Game.exe" -debugmsg warn+all &
sleep 3
sudo mv -f Game.exe Game_crk.exe
sudo mv -f Game1.exe Game.exe
