Is there a config file it creates somewhere?

The resolutions it lists for my TH2Go fills the box and doesn't show them all.

The largest listed at the bottom is 1920x1200, which works fine, but I want to see if it will do 3840x1024.

EDIT: Nevermind. Fixed it with a little registry editing. ; )

3840x1024


Now if only I could move my health and mana bubbles back toward the center.

Hi, I'd like to try this myself.. I've been fooling around with it myself, but I've only been able to get 3840x768 and I'd like to try to max it out for fun, but I can't seem to get the 'enumerated video modes' list down..

which is what I assumed you did, removed a couple so that you were able to scroll down to your the desired resolution.

Can you share the edit? And the HUD would be the big trick.

can anybody say how to edit the registry for 3840x1024 th2g resolution?

First you need to update to the lastest version by connecting to battle.net after installing Diablo II and expansion.

Then install the D2MultiRes hack.

In your Desktop Shortcut, add the -w toggle so it will open in window mode.

Run Diablo II and start a game in one of the standard modes. Go to the Video options and see if the resolution you would like is listed. If so, choose it and play to your hearts content.

If the resolution you want is not listed and your table of resolutions is full (20); then exit the game and go to where you have Diablo II installed and view the D2MultiResLog. It will list all the available modes detected when you started Diablo II.

Each is numbered. For example mine looks like this...

...
Added Display Mode: 29: 2400 x 480
Added Display Mode: 30: 3072 x 768
Added Display Mode: 31: 3840 x 1024
Added Display Mode: 32: 5040 x 1050
Added Display Mode: 33: 4320 x 900

I want the 5040 x 1050 resolution so I know that mode is designated as 32.

I go into the registry (NOTE: DO NOT DO THIS IF YOU ARE NOT SURE WHAT IT IS WE ARE DOING HERE. ALTERING YOUR REGISTRY CAN CAUSE HARM TO YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM).

Under the HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Blizzard Entertainment > Diablo II folder, click on and edit the D2RMRes key and change it to a decimal value of the mode that you want (in my case, 32).

Close Regedit and run Diablo II again. The menu screen will continue to be small (800 x 600, I think), but once you start a game...viola! 5040x1050!! For me, anyways.

My next problem is figuring out how to remove the Window title bar as it will not let me move the Title bar above the top of the desktop; in which case I can't see more than half of my belt quick slots.



So I've upgraded from 3840x1024, now to get rid of that title bar. I've already decreased my window padding to 1 and my Title Bar font down to 13 (lowest it will go) and switched to a natively small font. Best I can do so far.

If you are still having issues, feel free to private message me.

wow excellent, thanks for the info.

No longer works with the 1.13c update.

Hopefully we will hear from the d2multires developer after he gets a look at the new dlls.

hi I have the D2multires working and all but I ran into an issue.

http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=17657&hilit=d2multires
the link above is a person having the same issue but his post replies dont lead to any solution and the post has been locked so I cannot reply to it, hence the new post I am making here.


I have been playing the game on the highest res on the list 1024x1960 or something. when I switched to 1080x1360 my widescreen tv reverted to its own "no signal" screen and at the bottom it tells me the resolution is not supported. I can hear the game in the background since my sound isnt through the tv but instead a reciever and speakers. I can click stuff after hitting esc and hear the menu but i cant seem to click exactly in the right spots to turn it back to a working resolution rofl. sigh...
The game hasnt crashed it just wont come through to my widescreen on this particular char, and i dont know how to change the resolution for the character outside of the game.

Please help I want my level87 necromancer back. :rockout
I can still play other chars but I would like to get this fixed.
In the future if I accidently click the wrong resolution from the list it could do it to other chars.

P.S. If Im posting this in the wrong place Im sorry I am newb to this forum :doh

The D2MultiRes will not work with the new update, but if you are maintaining the older version (1.12), then it still should work.

See the instructions for setting it up early in this thread.

Also, you might just try adding the -w toggle in the shortcut to run it in windowed mode.

can i please get some help with the issue above

pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease
