So I was having problems with the mod update that other people weren't.

So I decided to reinstall.

Installed d2 original->1.10->1.3b core->1.3b high res->1.3c beta high res

Windows 7 / No D2SE

Just fails to join games, what did I miss?

I can create single player games, so maybe version problem? How do I tell if I'm updated properly?

All I see is "D2 Mod System 1.03"

Seems I'm not running correct version as single player I'm not getting the new mod to throwing knives. I followed instructions to T don't know what I missed.

using -direct -txt after creating a shortcut (either from diablo 2 exe or the .bat file) since it is not done in an mpq. guess you didn't have a previous data folder since you reinstalled.

i went from 1.3b to 1.3c ok. just the cain quirk mentioned earlier

My install order look good? Not being able to join seems to be like it's a ver problem. Pretty sure I followed instructions to a T :(

Do I have to run from a shortcut with the flags or can I still use my bat file with the flags?

Also how can I tell what version I'm using. yeah my data files are moved, I still have them I think tho. They can help?

I don't know what exactly I've done but it's working now. Maybe the system didn't copy a file over or something I have no idea..
