    Greetings Lads.

    After my long inactivity I saw a lot of messages in my box on how to install / set Diablo 2 In Windows 10..

    So I decided to do a guide which can be useful both new and old players decided to change the platform.

    1. Download / Install your Diablo 2 with Patch 1.13

    2. You will need these two archives.

    2.1 - [ Click Me ] EuropeBattle Realm Patch
    2.2 - [ Click Me ] D2IntegratedMapHack !!

    3. After downloading the files. Unzip the files from the 2.1 [ EuropeBattle Ream Patch ] in your Diablo 2 Folder !! :)

    Replace all files and continue with 3.1.

    3.1 Unzip the files from the 2.1 [ D2IntegratedMapHack !! ] somewhere in your computer.

    When u're done with the unziping, open the folder and copy the content of sub folder - Integrated MapHack

    [​IMG]

    When u're done with copyin, paste those files directly into your Diablo 2 game directory !!

    ( Will ask you whether you want to overwrite the files - Click Yes )

    4. This point is the most important, so pay attention.

    [​IMG]

    4.1 Run the reg file which I pointed out ( Double Left Click --> YES --> OK )

    4.2 After this ( Right Click --> Properties --> Compatibility )

    [​IMG]

    Apply --> Ok. Repeat this step with all files marked with red squares. ( Look the picture from pt. 4 )

    ( Diablo II.exe , EuropeBattle.exe , Game.exe , Loader.exe ) !!

    Repeat this step with the d2hackmap.exe too if you are not using the integrated maphack.

    5. When u're done with this make sure to run the D2VidTst.

    Right Click --> Run As Administrator. After the test is done choose 2D !!

    6. Enjoy your favorite game and kick some Prime Evils :) :)

    If you have any question, do not hesitate to ask here or private message.

    Best Regards.

    JohnDoe :)

    Hey, super frustrated here. I downloaded everything and followed all your instructions to a T. When I go to launch D2, on any of the files, it launched the guy in the armor but my D2 engine does not pop up after the guy in the armor goes away. Any recomendations?

    Try going in compatability and test with the other options u have there Beside compatability mode and run as administration. There are others and one of those made my game to run after i had the Shielded anticheat Guy and then nothing happened.

    I saw @muffinmanaf in-game so he definetly made it work, a confirmation coming from his side would be nice.

    Confirmed, just ended up deleting everything and reinstalling it all to make it work. My brother on the other hand is getting "UNHANDLED EXCEPTION:ACCESS_VIOLATION (c0000005)" error code when he tried to create or join a game. Already changed his DEP settings to include the folder he has everything in, all the items individually, bypassed his avg firewall, turned off windows protection, tried xp2&3&windows 7 compat, along with admin. Very strange, has characters are made and followed the guidelines on this post and I tried to help him as well with no success.

    Did fix this, found another forum to solve problem

    The way this issue is resolved is by adding -w option for window mode to your shortcut. The way it is done - Right click on your shortcut, go to properties, then find the line that starts with target, after the quotation marks add a blank space and -w. This forces your game to start in window mode, the issue you were facing has something to do with resolutions I believe. It is common practice on forums when you are having an issue with something and eventually find an answer for it, to post it on the thread. That way if somebody else encounters it, he can fix it faster and easier. Because somebody else did that, you successfully fixed your problem :) Have fun playing.

    UNHANDLED EXCEPTION:ACCESS_VIOLATION (c0000005) error is so common with this game and many other games too and fixes may vary (we also covered all of them here in the forums too), however if this error pops up upon creating/joining games then it's mostly because the client was incorrectly patched with our custom installer unlike in case this pops up upon clicking battlenet button so that's even before being able to create characters which in this case you have to checkout DEP settings, firewall, antivirus, windows defender, compatibility, uac. Also, reinstalling does fix most of the game errors too as many people have noticed by now and I'll agree with @klaus that you get way less errors in window mode which is why our direct installer places a shortcut on your desktop that already has the "-w" parameter added, otherwise you'll have to add it yourself in case of extracting the .zip archive.

    Everything Works. But I can't edit the file d2hackmap.cfg. Rather change, but the changes are not displayed. Could you advise what need to change in order was not displayed on the screen of the jar of life, mana, small gold, scrolls, arrows, bolts and keys. Thank you.

    I doubt your d2hackmap.cfg file is set to read only so most likely you're MH configuration is incorrect.
    We have a fully detailed guide of customizing sting maphack that you can read here http://forum.europebattle.net/threads/maphack-configuration-guide.537869

    All of this has read, but could not understand. I'll keep thinking. Thank you.

    For maphack related questions refer to the thread I've mentioned. Make a post and show us what you've tried so far and what you want to display in-game.
