Diablo 2 & LOD install problems (solved)

[neo_viral]

Hi all

Hope everyone had a great christmas

I need some technical advice on installing Diablo 2 & LOD...this is NOT the version uploaded by Shattered,its one i got long ago that im trying to install now (i can download the Legendsworld one but i have limited bandwidth and its over 2 GB so...really want to try and make this one work first :/)

Firstly,would someone be so kind as to list the files on the D2 cds ? I keep getting the impression im missing something as the one text mentions D2PLAY.MPQ and i dont seem to have that...this also came on a DVD but if the D2 and LOD together is 2.21 GB on legendsworld i REALLY think im missing something as my D2 DVD is 1.4 GB about,and LOD is about 458 MB....

If this is so i guess i have no other option than to redownload :/

Ive copied over the files to the directories,applied patches,applied NO CD patches,nothing works.It keeps asking for a DVD.Ive tried creating an image file,also no luck.So D2 isnt working.(i can install it,but no play)Fine i thought,i`ll install LOD and apply THAT crack and then maybe it will work

.....It doesnt even want to install.It gets to almost the end,and then it gives me an error message that goes " Setup was unable to add the following file to C:\Program Files\Diablo II\d2char.mpq: binkw32.dll
Error 0x85200064: (P:\Data\D2\Tools\Diabinst\source\Mpqutil.cpp:32) Installation aborted"

Ok rough copy of what it says as it wont copy and paste so i might have gotten some capitals wrong or such.

Any idea how/if i can fix this ? Ive tried copying the files to HDD and making a new ISO,ive tried changing files from READ only to Non Read only,etc......any help would be much appreciated

Like i said,redownloading is my LAST option ;(

Running win2K system but tried this on Win 98 Oldskool PC i have around as well,no luck

uhm yeah eeee well why not download a proper working version then ?

[Meddle]

I've got the Diablo 2 as retail and a good iso of LoD, so when I find the discs, I'll make a list. d2play.mpq probably isnt that big anyways.

I put together a little fix for you, I hope it works. The good thing is its only about 850kb and it includes everything that is on the playdisc except for the two large mpq files.

Code: Select all

Many thanks for all the help guys !

Hope i didnt make you all go through too much trouble.I now definately know after looking at the list i am missing files...i downloaded some broken edition ages ago.

Meddle : many thanks for the fix,i tried it out,still no go though,but thanks for all the effort man i could use those files to create 3 images to match up to the files listed by I_AM but in this case after all the frustration but finding out it IS a broken download,i know i will have to redownload so will just have to do that.I did not know if it was maybe something on the image that did not like my system (i know when i try to install CoD i have to uninstall Deamontools first otherwise it refuses to even read Disc 2...so i had no idea wether Diablo 2 had the same sort of Virtualdrive allergies - and 2.21 GB is way over my monthly limit to just download if it could be something else)

My LOD iso is some razor release and the files match up to that in the list from I_AM so it might just be some corrupted image i have...will have to redownload that as well.At least the Legendsworld images upped by Shattered will be the working ones,unfortunately on other sites not everyone tests their uploads :/

Extra Again to Meddle & I_AM for all the help!

[Shattered]

I know that at some point during the installation of LOD there is some sort of integrity check of the MPQ files, so it might not install properly on your end because of the missing files. Maybe you only need to re-download D2, it's worth a try.
