Having problems to play

<< < (2/3) > >>

generalad:
If you hear the typical Windows sound there should also be some kind of notification window popping up or does the game just stop returning to windows?

ChaosEmpire:
Any Non-German and Non-English Diablo version must be started with the Play ChaosEmpire English Shortcut

When you get the new starting screen then you have successfully activated the mod (but probably you didnt started with play english shortcut)

when you try to play an old char from lod for example, or another mod, your game wont be stable/work ...

so what happens, if you start with play english AND a new generated char (after play english start :) )

Chaos Empire shortcut? You mean that red pentagram? But that's what I use to enter the game...or did I download something wrong?

I created a char especially for testing this mod, so it's not related to lack of compatibility between char and mod...

Anyway, I'll try to reinstall everything from the beginning and see if that helps!

When my game stops and I hear that sound, nothing else happens, that screen continues, so does the music...the only way of leaving that is pressing the "Esc" key. That makes the screen, sound (and any notification that might exist) disappear, returning to Windows...

So, have you guys got any idea of how to solve this? :blink:

Thanks for the attention! :thumbup:

What you mention is the activator, which you have to execute once in order to activate the mod.
I guess you used your normal Diablo II Shortcut to start Diablo 2? If so you have to modify the shortcut. Normally it looks like this: "C:\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe". If you want to play the Mod without trouble you should modify that link to
"C:\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe" -direct
Afterwards your Diablo 2 starts in english and most issues should be fixed. If you want the issue-fixing to go on but du not want to play the mod in english you will find a "Use" file in your Diablo II\DATA\local\ folder. Rename it to something else but "Use" and the mod should start as normal.

Danke you very much! :donatello: (yep, I know that sounded ridiculous, but donatello kicks butt, so I believe it's ok :D)

Thanks a billion so far, fellas! I am reinstalling everything, and, after that, will do as you say...hope it works this time! And no, I don't really mind playing it in english (no, I'm not French)! :thumbup:

Once I've done everything, I shall come here to tell you what's up! ;)
