    Hello, someone manages link of the complete server, with the map tools, and some kind of optimizer because the fps are really bad, and the game does not look natural, I know that there is the downloadable option on the page, but this is all in parts.

    Hey there @gonzaaedu, can you share a screenshot with us or a small video if possible? Are you facing FPS drops or what exactly is the issue?
    If your FPS are dropping and everything moves slow then check out this post and give glide wrapper a try http://forum.europebattle.net/threads/glide-wrapper.539863/

    Considering you have been playing here before and you did not have this game issue, I assume something must have changed lately. If you haven't already, then I suggest trying to perform a clean reinstallation of your game client following these exact steps http://forum.europebattle.net/threads/common-game-errors-and-fixes.532466/#post-881523 and download the latest launcher from our website.

    Hi @Gix , sorry for replying so late, I share a link of the command /fps in the game I have 55 fps, if I did the configuration that you name me, but even running everything you tell me I feel the game slow. Is there any client where you can directly download the game correcting all those errors? I have played the server for quite some time and when I played I never had those fps problems, I have windows 10, i9 13k, gtx 1050ti, 32 gb ram.

    The game looks fine to me in that video @gonzaaedu, not really seeing any stuttering besides Diablo II is capped at 25 FPS anyway as you can read here https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/FPS
    You probably made some changes recently to your operating system, being either some software installation or Windows update and you don't see triple FPS digits anymore, but that's irrelevant as long as you are over 25 FPS. You do however have a higher latency, therefore I suggest creating a game on the South America region and see how that feels instead. In order to do that, simply type GS 7 inside the Game Server Description field, under Password when you're creating your game and you will be sent to a game server that is closer to your geographic location.

    If you want to reinstall the game you can also do that from here http://europebattle.net/d2/join and make sure to download the Launcher and run the game through it as some of the files didn't update properly, hence the stash button is not aligned properly.

    PS: I'm not sure if you're actually running the game under glide-wrapper in your video, the gamma contrast is usually higher when using glide.

    I have reinstalled everything, but I have a doubt, is there any way to play in a bigger resolution? the truth is a little uncomfortable to play in such a small window. The use of -3dfx and the ddraw in the launcher literally leaves me blind, so much light, when I close the game it leaves my screen with an intense light, and I have to restart my computer. Is there any external use of a mod that can help me with that? also when I activate advanced in the launcher and select -direct I get an error in the game.

    Link: 3df y draw

    Link: -direct error
    https://prnt.sc/BJ78BnnBENqQ

    P.S.: I tried to use this program from d2dx, but I got the same error I shared with you from the - direct

    You are not supposed to check "-direct" @gonzaaedu, that's for development purposes only, as it says when you mouse hover.
    Gamma can be changed from the in-game settings, you could also click that little wheel next to the checkbox in the launcher and see if there are any settings for 3dfx it as well or modify the ddraw.ini file inside your game folder, although it should only affect the game and not your overall monitor luminosity. Also for large monitors you could run the game in full screen or upscale your monitor resolution as you can see here http://forum.europebattle.net/threa...set-27-october-2023.547200/page-4#post-998736, there's no bigger resolution than that.

    if you dont want to play full screen only window mode u can click to maximize window or use ddraw and edit ddraw.ini
    change width and height from there and restart game. u dont need to use widescreen for this maybe with normal resolution window will be bigger
