I've installed some random custom font I found and it fixed the problem. Thanks.

Apparently with the new Windows 10 builds the Data Execution Prevention needs to be turned off for Game.exe to play in Multiplayer. Try the following: "Windows Defender Security Center" → "App & Browser Control" → "Exploit Protection settings" → "Program Settings" → click on the Game.exe entry that is already there, make sure you have the correct one selected (see the folder path), and if your Game.exe is not there, choose "Add program to customize" then find and add it. The system override settings for Game.exe should be Data Execution Prevention (off), Mandatory ASLR (off), Bottom-up ASLR (off).

Note that this will pose a high risk for your computer if you receive a malicious Game.exe, so make sure to only use official download of the mod and Diablo II itslef.

Sorry, I forgot this thread existed. Ty for moving my post and for the advice.

After applying the overrides, and a reboot, things seem to be working again. I still have my original D2+LoD discs, so the risk of a malicious Game.exe shouldn't be too high. But still, idk how comfortable I am running the game this way.

Hi to creators,
Mod version 2.0.4 has a lot of bugs in regard of play.
Among them: it doesn't show overall damage to the spell/weapon. Necromancer after a certain level and skill it makes its towers and minions not shown even the MANA is consumed. Many skills are not applied and/or their effects are very short in time or nonexistent. And many others... This mod is great, but needs a lot of fixing.
Thank you!

*character was just stuck, still weird it crashes other games that you try to join lol* My ladder character Sath_Sorc is bugged and cannot create or join games(joining games crashes the game). I had the Horadric Cube stuck to my cursor and could not get it off of the cursor not matter what I tried so I save quit.

I saw that the new update supports higher resolution so I reinstalled with excitement!!!

However when I loaded the game up it is still just as zoomed in and pixelated (the pixelation is the real killer) as before. I followed the instructions here https://median-xl.com/changelog to change to DirectDraw D2.

What am I doing wrong? I'm not expected D2R graphics, but right now the colors of the health and mana globes are off and all the graphics looks super pixelated. Very different from the video showcase here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSso6IdmbrQ

In short, what can I do to get this amazing mod working as beautiful as possible?

Thank you!!

edit: it's hard to see in the screenshot, but the colors are off with lots of pixelation. (the smaller picture makes it look higher res than it is lol)
