Installation without LauncherIf you're having trouble with Launcher you can install MXL Sigma without its use.
However, you will be missing out on some Launcher configuration options and this is an unofficial method of patching D2.Download and install Diablo II
Use 'Start with a fresh install' step of the guide for reference. viewtopic.php?t=4561
Download MXL Sigma files
Launcher downloads several archives from Median XL servers
http://get.median-xl.com/launcher/?get=dlls
download1.x.x.dll.update file
rename1.x.x.dll.update to 1.x.x.dll.7z file
extract1.x.x.dll.7z file

Fog.dll
D2Sigma.dll
Diablo 2 Lord Of Destruction

download1.x.x.7z
fileextract1.x.x.7z file

MXL.mpq
Copy files into Diablo 2 installation folder
copyFog.dll, D2Sigma.dll, MXL.mpq files
paste and overwriteFog.dll, D2Sigma.dll, MXL.mpq files into your Diablo 2 folder
If you use Windows you should be able to run Diablo 2 normally.
Running on Mac (before 10.15 Catalina)
Install brew.sh and wine
You need to install brew and wine to run Diablo 2.
See respective guides brew.sh and Installing Wine on Mac
This guide assumes you have Diablo extracted into your home folder.
In this example it's ~/D2
Open Terminal.app
cd ~/D2For windowed mode
wine Diablo 2.exe -wFor fullscreen
wine Diablo 2.exe -3dfx
It just works!Common problems and solutions
I want to play fullscreen
MXL Sigma doesn't play nicely with fullscreen and DirecDraw or Direct3D. To play fullscreen you have to use 3dfx video driver.
cd ~/D2
wine Diablo 2.exe -3dfxDiablo crashes with ACCESS VIOLATION (c0000005)
Make sure you're running in windowed mode (-w flag) or playing fullscreen (-3dfx flag)
Generic bad character file when creating singleplayer character
Easy way is to login to The Sin War once, create a character and log in once. After that you can create characters offline.
If that doesn't work you can create missing folder structure. $WINEPREFIX is ~/.wine by default:
cd $WINEPREFIX
cd drive_c/users/<your_Mac_username>
mkdir -p 'Application Data/MedianXL/save'Diablo crashed and I can't close it
Use Activity Monitor.app, find and kill all wine and wineserver processes
Another option is to use CMD+OPTION+ESC combination for a force quit shortcut.
I have MacOS Catalina and nothing works
Thanks to Apple ruining 32-bit application support on MacOS Catalina it is no longer possible to run wine. There is a solution by another application named CrossOver, which is similar to wine and wineskin. You will require CrossOver version 20+ to make this work, the process is similar:

RWM and Wineskin (SOLVED)
NOTE: This thread is intended for any Mac users who, of necessity, must run 'Diablo II.exe' using Wineskin, and should therefore only apply to OSX 10.7 and up(For instructions on how to install D2 on OSX 10.7 and later, refer to this guide).
To install RWM simply:
1. Download RWM for PC
2. Unzip, and place the folder labeled 'data' directly into the 'Diablo II' folder in the Wineskin wrapper (To find the folder, right-click your wrapper and click 'Show Package Contents.' The 'Diablo II' folder may be found here: /drive_c/Program Files/Diablo II)
3A. To create your RWM shortcut, right-click your wrapper, click 'Show Package Contents,' and open up 'Wineskin.' Hit 'Advanced,' and under the tab labeled 'Tools,' hit 'Custom .EXE Creator.' Type '-direct -txt' into the '.EXE Flags' field, name the shortcut, and apply any screen options you'd like to set.
3B. Alternatively, if you'd like RWM to stay enabled at all times, simply right-click the wrapper, click 'Show Package Contents,' and open up 'Wineskin.' Hit 'Advanced', and type in '-direct -txt' in the '.EXE Flags' field.
Enjoy! :thumbup:
