Cant install
I cant get the mod to work. After puting in the DLL's and the data folder it says to add -direct-txt to my target in my shortcut, I do this and it says it's not valid. So I go into a game to see if I can go on without this, but all the sorcy skills are the same though the inventory sizes were bigger. Please help soon I want to play the mod!! Also if somehow I missed something and im a complete idiot please dont flame me too badly
Re: Cant install
if you have wrote this -direct-txt i can see what it doesn't work. It should be a space between -direct -txt.

Re: Cant install
make sure the data folder is in your diablo II folder .

Re: Cant install
I did both of these things and niether worked.
Here is exactly what it says after adding -direct -txt to the target line, the name "'C:\ProgramFiles\DiabloII\diablo.exe"-direct' specified in the target box is not valid. Make sure the path and filename are correct. As im typing this im sure its something dumb im doing. So ill play around with it a bit more, any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Re: Cant install
A correct one could look like this. it's important that you have space between "" -direct -txt -w.
Target: "C:\Games\Diablo II Betamodtest\diablo ii.exe" -direct -txt -w
Start In: "C:\Games\Diablo II Betamodtest\mods\Corrupted Death"
Target: "C:\Games\Diablo II Betamodtest\diablo ii.exe" -direct -txt -w
Start In: "C:\Games\Diablo II Betamodtest\mods\Corrupted Death"

Re: Cant install
Here is what mine says.
Target: "C:\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe" -direct -txt
Start In: "C:\Diablo II"
that should do it. tell me if you still have problems.

Re: Cant install
Ok I got it working now. Thanks for all of the help. Not surprising to me but it was something dumb on my part, I was putting a space between -direct and -txt but i wasn't putting one before -direct.

Re: Cant install
Do you see a d2game.dll, d2common.dll, and a d2client.dll.
If not then you you need to set your file view up to show system files.
And if your putting this directly into your diablo folder then remember to copy the above files to a backup folder.

Just need to worry bout the top half of this tutorial since you copied the mod into your Diablo directory.
