Also works on Debian, Fedora, and Arch.
I tested on Debian with Wine 3.1.9 (had to install FUSE)
Deafwave and I both tested on Fedora (I think some version of Wine 4.0, can't remember)
Food tested it on Arch.

i got it working by installing new linux ubuntu 18.10, before that i had been using linux lite 32bit, i think it had some compatibility problems with newer components.

after all this, i realize the experience on the linux desktop is no good for me (monitor, sitting, fps drops ingame, hotkeys dont work as they should, idc anymore), so it was all for nothing because i dont want to play it like this :(

Linux:
x32: https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/medi ... 6.AppImage
x64: https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/medi ... 4.AppImage

You still need these dependencies:
xdelta3 (linux command line package)
FUSE
wine (for Diablo II)

This being said, OSX is 100% ready, but we do not currently have a server that can build a dmg. (yay apple)

everything was fine until today's (25.01) update, error log:

The 1.0.2 patch update fked things up a bit for Linux users using the Linux Launcher (not sure about Mac users). For now, you can manually dl, extract, and copy/paste the 1.0.2 patch files into your D2 directory (see links below, posted by Deafwave in the MXL Discord Tech Support Channel):
https://get.median-xl.com/launcher/index.php?get=mod
https://get.median-xl.com/launcher/index.php?get=dlls

And just a quick side note: doing this messed up the shortcut I added to my "Favorites" sidebar for MXL. So I have to run the appimage file directly to get the Launcher to start. Not saying you'll have this problem too, but it's something to be aware of.

Thank you soo much! extracted both files into d2 folder, and in my case works even from shortcut (Manjaro KDE). Thank you! :bounce: :flip:

Is there any progress on the native Mac installer?

(I'm sure someone with x-tools and the knowledge would happily hand-compile each new version.)

I have been getting the same error and have tried everything I can think of to fix it with no luck. Running Windows 7

Okay so I did something not entirely sure what but I got D2stats to open and stay open without any errors, and it seems to be working as intended. I made sure all previous instances of D2stats were closed via ctrl alt delete / program manager AND via the notifications bar in the bottom right.

Furthermore, when I had just the ONE instance of d2stats running, I right clicked on it and there is an option to 'pause' that I couldn't seem to uncheck but clicked on it anyway.

Opened median xl launcher, created a game, and voila first time since about Thanksgiving I haven't gotten the failed too many times in a row error. Thought I would share -

No one? It would be so good to play with Glide... Since under wine it only works with Direct 3D.
