Sorry for Offtopic.

The usage of the shortcut for singleplayer are written down in the General Changes under DIABLO II MOD

Shortcut Switch -act2 until -act5 changed (generates now test char with Level 45/60/78/95)

Add them at the startlink on your desktop or startmenu, like
"D:\Programs\DiabloII\Game.exe -act5"

You can combine these shortcut with any other Diablo2 Shortcuts (e.g. "-w" for Windowsmode).

Go into your D2 directory.  Right click on the D2 program icon and select "create shortcut."  Now right click on the shortcut icon and choose "properties."  In properties the target line should be something like:
"C:\Program Files\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe" -direct

Add -act5 at the end to make it:
"C:\Program Files\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe" -direct -act5

Now you can double click on that shortcut icon whenever you want to make a test character.
