Then you are set with CD-less LAN plan on all four machines.Īlso note that there is Diablo 2 ("Classic") and Diablo 2 Expansion: Lord of Destruction ("LoD") and this applies to either version. So what may make sense, even if you have the old version, is install whatever version on the 4 machines (it takes a while) and then update to the current version by connecting to or via their downloadable installer. You would need 4 different CD keys to play all four of you online via, but for local play via a LAN or via TCP/IP play, you can have the same CD key used during install and there is no need to have it in the drive when playing if you have done the "full install." So if it is one of those versions, you could still do it if the computers are nearby (same room) but it may be a hassle.īut the current version 1.13 doesn't require the CD to be present each time you launch the game. Older versions, such as 1.10 and 1.11, still required the CD to be present in the drive during gameplay, at least at the start. The things we do for a two decade old game that we love.It may depend upon which version of Diablo 2 you are playing. Will update if I figure anything out, and I appreciate any further assistance with getting this to work. After a Diablo II crash, my character is stuck online. My problem now is that I can't figure out how to open the diabloii.exe with wine. I disconnected from Diablo II and now it says my CD Key is in use with my own name. I took the aforementioned Diablo II folder that was downloaded and patched via my desktop and placed it on my Chromebook's SSD. I have since successfully installed WINE. I have since "power washed" my Chromebook 3 and have installed their stock "Linux Beta" that they have. I ran the program and it still said that I needed to insert the CD. Put it on a USB drive and installed it on my Chromebook 3 via Crouton. I then went on my desktop, installed D2 & LOD through the Blizzard website. I then plugged an external CD-ROM into my Chromebook 3 in an attempt to run the game, but it still said that I needed to insert the CD. I attempted to run the game, but alas, it still requested the CD to be inserted.
I obtained all the files off my CD-ROMs for Diablo2 & LOD and put them in the Diablo II folder. Unknown which ones or where to get them reliably. exe it gives me the same error of "insert cd".Īnyone know a work around or fix for this? I did read that if you put certain files in the d2 folder it will work properly.
I understand the latest patch of LoD allows to play the game without the CD (I got D2 & LoD from blizzard website) - but when I attempt to run the.
We recommend you browse the file list for the latest patch. Problem is when I finally got the program installed, it keeps saying that I need to have the CD inserted and won't open. This patch has been archived by the uploader because it is out of date and no longer supported. I obtained a Chromebook 3 from Verizon for free, so I wanted to install LoD on it because, well, that's probably the greatest thing ever.
