Well, that's a registry error. It may have come from a different method of installing Diablo II (IE: not from the CD's). I remember I had to tweak all the VBS scripts on my friends comp since he installed a different OS and lost his registry. (BTW, Diablo II runs fine without registry entries)

But Sir_General's launcher is an exe...

If you're using the updated launcher (and you really should), then there is a text box that will allow you to manually enter your Diablo II path if it's not found in the registry (or if you want to use a different one). The link from the download is:

You're quite the lucky one, aren't you? :)

Anyway, see if your rune mod folder has a D2GFX.dll in it.
