Well for some reason I can get Glide working fine without D2Mod installed and vice versa. Try having them both enabled and I get "Diablo 2 has stopped working" instantly when I try I start it. |

Try running glide-init and unselect everything in extensions... also try to change overall graphic setup in either nvidia/Catalyst panel. I've had many weird problems with wrong loader, opengl triple buffering enabled (weird colors in game), etc. Try to run d2vidtest again. What's your graphic card ? What about logs? is there any info about this crash (like trying to load dll but fail)? |

-D2 installed Games\Diablo 2 -Tried running D2vistest again -Nvidia GTX 560 Ti -Using D2 Loader -No error at all documented in log I can get glide working fine on it's own without any issues at if I un-install D2mod systems. As soon as I install D2mod systems Diablo 2 instantly stops working upon start up. As I said with D2mod systems only installed without glide, game works fine; glide installed without D2mod systems also works fine... Together they fail. |

Hm weird. 560 is like hd6850 and I have 0 problems with it. Try http://www.svenswrapper.de/english/text ... rsion.html and disable aero(compatibilty tab)completely. Are you getting the error in full mode and -w as well? |

Apparently I just needed to reboot. I've been able to get Glide and the D2ExpRes plugin working fine together now. So it's all good now! |

Interesting. I have tried this long time ago but failed. I guess that was because gfx card driver for windows 7 sucks. I searched the internet to see if anyone had the same problem, but it appeared I was the only one that had such kind of issue. At first I used direct3d, it looked good but the game ran quite slowly. So I always played in windowed mode after that. Later I found that glide wrapper and gave it a try. Before the loading screen, everything was fine. But when in game, my computer was choked to death, it got less than 1fps I guess that I could barely move my mouse. I couldn't see anything but gray triangles. Esc menu and HUD were displayed correctly I think. I saw it rained in rogue encampment, but beyond that there were only some gray triangles, odd. *edit* GeForce 7100 GS |

I had the same issue and eventually sorted it by messing around with the diff glide settings. See This topic also, a few pages are related to glide issues and theres a config file in among there too i think. |
