I was watching the 2.0 video here https://youtu.be/oSso6IdmbrQ?t=63

It looks MUCH smoother than my gameplay, even with "high FPS" and such, enabled.

Not sure how to make it run smoother. Any ideas?

Finally found this topic.... I have RE-SHADE and it looks amazing. I DL this version and ran it, but I don't see how to edit the shaders. With RESHADE, I just hit HOME and can edit the shaders in game, but how to do it with cnc-draw??? I love that I can play full-screen windowed mode, fucking awesome!

EDIT: Wow, I think some of the filters are auto added in! The items in my inventory look really, really nice! And that dragon and angel on the bottom looks like modern gfx

if someone wants to use it with wine, you need to override ddraw.dll in winecfg. The process is described in https://wiki.winehq.org/Winecfg#Libraries and e.g. https://www.reddit.com/r/ProjectDiablo2 ... nd_lutris/

I switched back to using glide and have no problem with that unhandled exception whatsoever.

So TLDR is that CNC brings nothing new to the table other than the capabilities of glide as far as I've observed. No noticeable single graphical improvement over the good ol' glide. I struggle to understand why the devs even advertised it as never-before-seen since it won't remove black bars.


To me the biggest need for MXL at the moment is a way to get the game to run more fluidly otherwise I'm getting some motion sickness.

CNC does nothing for me on this.

D2DX fixes that point by giving real 60 fps. Only problems I had with it which is why I wanted to try CNC are:
- Some major shadow flickering (mostly on Merc) when I move around
- Not liking the overly glowing/sharpened texture on stuff when moving. Really distracting.
- Ghosting around npcs, mobs, any objects really when moving. I think it's all cause by the mod itself.

If only Blizzard could make good games, we wouldn't have to go through all this trouble to get a 20 years old game engine to behave.

Thanks but that is already what it says in my ini file. My game is already borderless and I don't want to lock the cursor but it just shows the windows cursor + the diablo 2 cursor at the same time while playing.

Edit fixed: followed previous post that I missed you have to delete the Dx2d stuff / glide.
