I created a Game.exe shortcut, add -direct, but I still have a few things to work on:
1. Font (2nd one) works for Diabloii.exe, and Game.exe. But client still not having the same result. I tried both Median...exe and that exe with shortcut (+ -direct), but it still didn't work. I also made a data folder (with all the sub folder) and the font, in the Median XL folder, but still didn't work.
2. I can connect to TSW by running Game.exe (or Diabloii.exe), but I can run 3 game instances (or more). So, I think this might be illegal and get banned.

P.S - If the leading is set too high and you look at an item such as that malthaels in OP, the font size gets tiny because it cannot fit all of the text on screen.
there's a chance too that the weight of the font was throwing me off. For example, I'm not huge on bold fonts, but the heavier weight in your Grotesk fonts seem to largely help the readability. although, idk if that will be effective for every font type.
a lot could also be my preference on the typeface itself. I tend to lean towards slightly more narrow sans fonts.

Also, you have always been able to open multiple client instances at the same time, by opening game.exe, but you DO NOT WANT TO DO THIS, as it is against ToS I believe. My font mods DO NOT require you to have more than one instance open at a time. TBH I am not sure why it is not working for you.

I have this in the errorLog (When opening client): "[2021-08-23 09:38:43] caught error getHash: TypeError: Cannot read property 'replace' of undefined ||| outputHash: ||| filePath: D:\Diablo II\Game.exe |||". Can you give a try?
And I have a question: "Will I get banned if I play TSW on Game.exe?"

go to folder appdata/medianxl/launcher open settings.json file. and change direct from false to true. save it and make it read-only in properties. otherwise it's won't work.
