Hey guys, I decided to write this guide after I finally found out how to install the Hell Unleashed mod and I hope it is as detailed as possible for you guys so those who no nothing about mods can properly install them. I also hope that this guide explains how to properly install this mod so that Hell Unleashed becomes playable for you.

You will need:
Diablo 2- Purchased Serial Key
Diablo 2 LoD- Purchased Serial Key
Glide Fx (Link is Courtesy of Nedder)
LoD-1.10 patch files (Link is courtesy of blue_myriddon)
Diablo 2 Loader (Link is Courtesy of PureRage-DoD)
Patience and Time


Step 1: You will need to go to http://www.battle.net/login and login with your existing account or create a new one if you have not done so already.

Step 2: In your account options, you will need to add your 26 serial key into the "Add Game" section so that you can re-download it in the next few steps. (Note: Do this for BOTH GAMES)

Step 3: Download your Blizzard Down loader for EACH GAME (Diablo 2 and Diablo 2 LoD)(Pause and take a break until BOTH GAMES HAVE DOWNLOADED).

Step 4: Once both have been downloaded, run the Diablo 2 installer FIRST located in C:\users\(your cpu name here)\d2-112a-enUS (unless specified otherwise). The same will apply with Diablo 2 LoD which will be C:\users\(your cpu name here)\d2LoD-enUS. INSTALL DIABLO 2 ON YOUR DESKTOP AS IT WILL MAKE EVERYTHING MUCH EASIER TO TRACK.

Step 4a: MAKE A COPY OF YOUR DIABLO 2 FOLDER NOW. PLACE IT IN THE C:\ DRIVE. (Because if you mess anything up it's game over)

Step 4b: Download the Graphics FX Glider Here and extract all the files into your Diablo 2 Desktop folder. Run d2vidtst.exe and select the Glider Fx option for the best performance (Or whichever is better for you).

Step 5: Once Diablo 2 and Diablo 2 LoD have been installed you will need to downgrade to version 1.10.36. To do this you will need to download the patch files Here. Extract the patch files into your Diablo 2 Folder on your desktop and overwrite all of the files.

Step 6. Download Hell Unleashed Version 1.3a from the main website (Full version or Single player, whatever your preference) and extract it to your Diablo 2 folder LOCATED ON YOUR DESKTOP.

Step 7: Run D2ModSetup.exe and click on "yes" to make changes to the registry.

Step 8: Download the loader Here and extract it into your Diablo 2 Desktop Folder. Create a shortcut of this loader and place it on your Desktop.

Step 9: Go back into your Diablo 2 folder on your desktop and right click game.exe and newloader.exe. Go to the Compatability tab and check the boxes "Disable Visual Themes" and "Disable Desktop Composition" so that the loader can run the game.

Step 10: Run the loader, and you're done! Give it a few seconds to load and you now have Hell Unleashed v1.3a to play in FULLSCREEN BABY!

You may find mouse wheel not working. If so, set compatibility of launcher/game.exe to win XP

you may or may not want to include how to run multiple instances of diabloII at once using game.exe, using a hex edit in d2gfx.dll, some post purerage wrote, works great and you dont need d2loader
