dlf Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Have decided to play Diablo 2 LOD again, but I want to play at the resolution this monitor supports - 1680x1050 (and yes I know that's not full HD), was curious to know if I could also play @ that resolution with Nezeramontias.I'd also like to use PlugY if @ all possible as well.

Andre S. Veteran Posted April 30, 2013 Veteran Share Posted April 30, 2013 Not without exe hacks as far as I'm aware, which can get you banned from battle.net. The highest resolution supported natively is 800x600. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToneKnee Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 "full HD".... :argh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlf Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 I have no intention of playing battlenet. Also full hd is 1920x1080 isn't it? I have a 1680x1050 resolution screen which is at lest 720 isn't it? . . . . . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
articuno1au Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Indeed. Tony needs a downvote. Torchlight might be worth a look if you want something a little more recent :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xilo Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Indeed. Tony needs a downvote. Torchlight might be worth a look if you want something a little more recent :) But Torchlight isn't Diablo 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
articuno1au Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 More importantly, its not Diablo 3 >.< Like I said, if he wants something more recent, it's in the right direction >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a 1680x1050 resolution screen which is at lest 720 isn't it? . . . . . . . It's between 1080 and 720. The former is 1920x1080, the latter is 1280?720.

dlf Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 I have both Torchlights, but I want to play Diablo 2 LOD with Nezermontias (and PlugY) @ a resolution (right now) of 1680x1050. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lecter Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Blizzard should update the original Diablo games to support higher resolutions and widescreen functionality. They could easily make money from it. Agreed...I bought AOE II HD and am pretty happy with it, Blizzard should also do this. These kinds of games are perfect for the integrated graphics in laptops. watchthisspace 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myxomatosis Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 The most acceptable way I found to play Diablo 2: 800x600, a Glide Wrapper and ?GPU scaling / Keep Aspect Ratio? enabled in the Catalyst Control Center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madd-hatter Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 More importantly, its not Diablo 3 >.< Like I said, if he wants something more recent, it's in the right direction >.< I'd go Path of Exile... Torchlight is Toony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadrack Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 You can't without hacking the executable. Just like someone has mentioned, it can get you banned. Blizzard should update the original Diablo games to support higher resolutions and widescreen functionality. They could easily make money from it. Add widescreen support to Warcraft 3 while they are at it :D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excalpius Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Blizzard should update the original Diablo games to support higher resolutions and widescreen functionality. They could easily make money from it. The programmers and designers of Diablo 1 & 2 are not with Blizzard anymore (which also explains the abysmal game design of Diablo 3), so you're not going to see any code fixes from them---unless they were to open source the game code as some other vendors have done. Maybe people should launch a campaign for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomoko Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Add widescreen support to Warcraft 3 while they are at it :D. Actually they already did, widescreen support was added in patch 1.25 :) Latest updates: https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/warcraft-iii-patch-downloads Raa and +Mirumir 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlf Posted May 4, 2013 Author Share Posted May 4, 2013 Then would it be possible for someone to mod the mod (that gives Diablo 2 LOD) that gives widescreen to be supported in 1.0 (1.1?)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe people should launch a campaign for that? Losing (some of) the programmers and designers doesn't suddenly make the source code a black box of unknowns. Diablo 2 last got a patch in October 2011, could still be patched again, and the Battle.net ladder is still being reset.
