Diablo Resmodding

Mellkor · Post by **Mellkor** » 01 Jan 2009, 23:11

I have been unable to locate a resolution mod for the original Diablo, not Diablo 2, so I tried modding it myself using a hex editor. I was not able to find the hex values for the resolution, 640 x 480, so I was wondering if there is another method I could try or if there is already a solution somewhere.

There are still Major bugs with that one. And of course it will get you banned from battle.net now. There was a real good working high res mod (singleplayer/open bnet only) from here though:

Hang on... there's a working widescreen/res mod for Diablo 2? (I don't care if it's not battle.net compatible as I haven't played D2 on b.net since LoD came out...)

I wanted to try it but can't seem to find a link to the latest release... anyone?

Oh god, looks like I need to set up a BNet clone and a Realm for everyone to jam on now. Specially now that we can do it in glorious widescreen!

Anyone? Anyone? It'll be replacing the WSGF server since nobody ever touches that anymore (seriously).

The original res mod for d2 won't work for diablo, but the multi res mod for d2 is really nice. Thats pretty much what got me looking for a resmod for diablo. I found a bunch for Interplay games so I figured there is a method for resmodding 2d games. I looked for a hours but never found anything. I would settle for playing d2 for a while but I really liked playing on the Eastern Sun mod for 1.12 and the resmod is for 1.10.

Blizzard is taking suggestions for Diablo 2 patch 1.13, The items that top the list will hopefully get added.

Help make higher resolutions including widescreen climb the list!

(requires a battle.net account and cdkey (wc3, d2, sc supported))

Its a stretch but hey!
Edit, by stretch I mean that I doubt they will add it; not that if they add it; it would stetch.

Thanks for the links I am assassinating my way through D2 now :) Never played it before (did the original) and it is fun so far. Picked up a copy of the complete diablo collection for next to nothing on the net ;)
