After this failed install, here is the error with wine Median\ XL.exe:

Been trying to get it running in Linux, too. Installed without any problems, but just can't get it to run. I thought I read awhile back the launcher was gonna be Java-based (in which case, WINE shouldn't really be a factor). If "Median XL.exe" is just a jar file with an exe wrapper, maybe we poor saps could try out a .jar version, just to see if it works. Otherwise, hopefully someone smarter than me can figure it out.

There was an error when the install finished but I ignored it. Logged two games into multi and it works great.
Afterwards, I tried deleting the launcher exe and it wouldn't work. When right clicking and selecting properties it did nothing. I tried renaming the file and my computer froze up. I got a prompt to restart windows explorer and that reverted the freeze. Then I tried deleting the launcher manually through command prompt and it said it couldn't find the file after several attempts. It was only after I cleared it from recent downloads in Firefox that it finally decided to play nice. Unsure if this would happen again I downloaded the installer two more times and had no issue deleting it. Maybe this was an isolated occurrence but I figured I'd mention in case someone else had the same problem. To clear from recent downloads (Firefox) press Ctrl+J and click the clear button near the top left of the page.
The other thing I noticed is that Windows Task Manager shows three seperate processes of "Median Xl.exe *32" running simultaneously when the launcher is running. Is this normal? It wasn't causing any problems but I was just curious.
Otherwise this launcher seems awesome. Being able to run two games is definitely a quality of life boost. I've used several launchers over the years and I have high expectations for this one, even though its only in beta. I hope this convinces others with Windows 7 to try the launcher, just don't let it distract you from the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table

PS. After closing the launcher, reopening, clicking play (Which worked just fine), closing D2, and clicking on settings, the settings came up as it was suppose to. So no problems with the game running.
PPS. I did not change or touch or EVEN LOOK AT different than default settings after downloading the launcher in any shape way or form.
PPPS. I operate my PC at 125% desktop resolution/icon/text scaling.
Had the same problem, wasn't sure if it was me being dumb though.

- Installs Median on any Diablo II version.
Interesting, luckily I do read log files, and log say "Error: patch_d2.mpq doesn't exist in "Game directory"".
I thought we can install it on any version, anyway, here are some screens:► Show Spoiler
EDIT: Works fine with glide, default settings since I just installed diablo once again just to test the launcher.
Marco wanted to say that it will turn any D2 version into 1.13c, and that if it's some old median or other mod version, it will offer to install MXLU XVI (aka 16.1.0), not that it will allow you to run any D2 version and any mod.
Glad to see it works.Seekers wrote:Is launcher compatible with d2se? (As in, if I install it and my D2 folder has D2SE, will it not work at all or will D2SE get deleted/not work)
The launcher will replace patch_d2.mpq with the median xl one and D2 game.exe with the 1.13c version, so the only thing that will be different in D2SE is that it will launch MXL instead of cLoD if you click on cLoD in D2SE, everything else should be fine.
Edit: I think it should all work fine, D2SE has its core files separate from D2. So the launcher and D2SE should both work.
Thanks for all the feedback, I really appreciate it!
