Higher Resolution for Diablo2 CE?

(1/3) > >>

VladSnakeDragon:
I know that, the mod itself does the whole check for hacks thing, but what i am wondering, is, if it is possible to actually bump up the resolution of the game to be more then 800x600?

Taken into account, I am not asking for new textures, but rather, a larger screen.

I am a linux user, and running the game in windowed mode through Cedega and/or Wine, a screen that's 800x600 is rather bad (seeing as alt-tabbing otherwise cause the desktop to freak out and do bad things)

Having said all that. Would it be possible to incorporate one of the other mods that allow for higher resolutions, into CE?

ChaosEmpire:
asks the othe rmods for merpission and instructions, i dont believe that it will work

bdpf:
Try running out of window mode..

If you can, your whole screen will be used. You will still be stuck using the two resolutions supported.

I seem to remember someone doing it in a Linux distro, and posted on CE forum.

Did you try searching the web? (Google) bdpf  :diablo:

VladSnakeDragon:
Sadly, I cannot run it stably at all, in fullscreen. For some odd reason, it does not seem to want me running it at fullscreen at all... with lockups and crashes to x-server. I've done all I can to see what the problem is, fiddling with both settings and drivers, but unfortunately, still the same.

It was posted here on CE the forms.
A person was running Diablo2 LOD with a Linux Distro.
Could X-server be the problem?
Try posting to your Linux Distro help forums or Linux gaming form.

Sadly my motherboard will not support the required ram for me to run a virtual box, wine with XP & Diablo. Plus video card old & moldy.

Found this link on reddit.com...

http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/93mmw/here_is_a_mod_that_lets_you_play_diablo_2_at_any/

self.gaming site was also shown....

Scanning the comments, leads me to believe they might be a cracks!  :oops:

The link, links to to Ah, utilities that deal with resolution problems & Diablo 2.

It might be worth a look.

I have not tried them so, try them at your own risk! ! ! !

They might trip the anti-cheat component of the CE Mod.

Maybe Joe can have a look & let you know.
