Hi, i have problem: I downloaded the mod, unzipped and started the game. Everything seemed to be ok till i found my first set item. I tried to identify it and then game crashed. I'm playing LOD 1.09d, english version. When I opened Your homepage looking for some advice i saw that there is written "for LOD 1.09d, this is mod version 1.7 (really final)" near the fileplanet link and then "The latest version of the mod (...) works with Diablo 2 Lord of Destruction version 1.09c". So what version is really needed ? If 1.09c then I would be grateful for some link becouse all i could find from patch 1.09c was d2lang.dll.
Thanks for answer.

It's for 1.09d.
Did you make a shortcut with a filepath that looks similar to this:
"C:/Program Files/Diablo 2/Game.exe" -direct -text

You have to start the ME mod through this shortcut. I'll assume you did the installation correctly.

Hope that helps.

Have you had any other mods installed?

Have you tried to re-install? That usually fixes most problems.

Now I reinstalled D2LOD, patched it to 1.09d and situation has changed: now when I try to identify some set item game doesn't crash but i dont see ANY stats of the set item (no name, price etc.). As far as i know many people have the same problem. Hope u can help me........plz

If that means that you play on closed Bnet, stop doing that, mods only work in open bnet.

You didn't understand me. I said "Yes, the same when i was playing CBN i also had problems with crashing V&K mod". For me it's OBVIOUS that ME MOD doesn't work on CBN. I played CBN starting game by "diablo II.exe" and i played single ME MOD by "Diablo II.exe -direct -txt". Now i reinstalled the game and im playing ONLY ME MOD and as i said
I don't see any stats of set items (I also see normal rune names El, Eld, Ral.. and they change into the new ones when i socket some item with them, but it's not a problem). Hope u can help me with these sets....

Hmmm you replaced the 2 DLLs (D2Win.dll and D2Game.dll)?

Well if you don't play on closed Bnet but still see the wrong strings I would guess that you either:

1: use a non-english, non-german version. In that case you either have to get the english version or you have to get the english "D2lang.dll" file which should be downloadable somewhere on the internet (www.D2network.de has it for one of the 1.09 versions or if you are desperate I could send it to you via email)

2: you made a typo with your shortcut and -direct -txt , maybe forgetting a space between exe and -direct or -direct and -txt.

Hope that helped (sofar we solved every problem I think :)
