Post by: Modern Nomad on March 23, 2010, 05:27:54 PM
Does anyone on nsf still play diablo 2?
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Turok on March 23, 2010, 05:34:35 PM
I do, haven't played it in a long while. But I'll dig it out if someone wants to play.

I'd been wondering a similar thing, except for Command & Conquer
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Modern Nomad on March 23, 2010, 05:41:28 PM

Based on the presence and lack of numbers it is probably safe to assume he means the original one and aren't run-on sentences with no punctuation fun

Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Night the Lucario on March 26, 2010, 03:13:27 AM
I do. Do any of you play the fan-made expansion, Eastern Sun? Screw Skely rush, I'll rush GOLEMS!!1!1!

*coughs* Ahem. I usually play the summoner classes, but... I really like the Druid better than the Necromancer. Hay, should we get an online game going?
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Spud on March 26, 2010, 12:23:40 PM
I tried Druid but I still prefer Necromancer. :U
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Night the Lucario on March 26, 2010, 01:03:47 PM
I feel like I'm more involved as a Druid. I have spells that kill things.
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Modern Nomad on March 28, 2010, 07:51:36 PM
So how about next friday we meet up here around 8 central time and make an nsf lobby and just have fun.   :)
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Night the Lucario on March 30, 2010, 12:00:01 PM
Sounds great! Should we make new characters?

Also, should we give the lobby a password?
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: So_So_Man on March 30, 2010, 01:08:05 PM
too bad I only have diablo 2, no expansion
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Night the Lucario on March 30, 2010, 01:10:26 PM
We could just keep it as D2, not Expansion.
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: So_So_Man on March 30, 2010, 01:23:46 PM
cool.  Also, new characters sounds great.  8 central is 9 est, right?

I believe so.
Also, I'm okay with this. Diablo 2 has a max of 8 players right?
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Night the Lucario on March 30, 2010, 01:57:46 PM
Yep.

So, whose going to be buffing my skelys?
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: noodle976 on March 30, 2010, 03:10:54 PM
do we have a server for this like with starcraft? I didn't buy mine ;O
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Modern Nomad on March 30, 2010, 03:14:54 PM
@ Night the Lucario New characters also I shall be a paladen so I can buff everyone.
This is also one of my favorite classes.
I would like to start up on some starcraft also.
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Night the Lucario on March 30, 2010, 03:33:29 PM
I know that we'll be making new characters. I'm just planning on making a Necro.
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Modern Nomad on March 30, 2010, 03:42:03 PM
I was just reaffirming the fact that we need to make new characters.
Also why hasn't this become the official diablo Topic because it will give all of us a new game to play.
However my battle net account is Abaria_Renji.
Title: Re: Diablo 2

Did the torrent say wether or not it was able to connect to battle net or did you get yours from someone else.
[spoiler]Why does no one have the retail version anymore. srsly it's only 20$ at your nearest wal-mart and it comes with the expansion. [/spoiler]
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Spud on March 30, 2010, 04:05:59 PM
Copied the files from my friend. Rarely used key is probably why I can access Battle.net.
So when is this? April 2nd, or the week after?
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Modern Nomad on March 30, 2010, 04:09:30 PM
I am hoping for april 2nd and maybe eery friday afterward at about the same time till either we beat the game or get bored.
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Night the Lucario on March 30, 2010, 04:25:44 PM
Mine won't load... I'll have to do it on the downstairs computer, and that's going to lag to death and back.

Post by: Turok on March 30, 2010, 04:41:50 PM
I still can't find my copy D: I might have to *erm* torrent it. WHY CAN I FIND THE BOX BUT NOT THE DISCS!?
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: So_So_Man on March 30, 2010, 04:48:44 PM
i know where my copy is.  Its lying on the floor next to my desk, along with a few other games
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Spud on March 30, 2010, 05:06:28 PM
I think I might be Barbarian...
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Night the Lucario on March 30, 2010, 05:08:25 PM
I have Necro. Nomad seems to have Paly underway, SPUD has Barb... so what we need are a 'Zon and a Sorc. Anyone willing to play either of those?

Thank you for emailing the Blizzard technical support department in
regards to your issue. If you are running Microsoft Windows Vista and are
having problems running Diablo II, we have some troubleshooting steps
that will assist in getting the game up and running.

If at any point you receive an error message from Windows stating "This
program has known compatibility issues," please first make sure the
game is fully patched to the most recent version. You can patch the game
by connecting to Battle.net for the auto-patch or you can download and
run the stand-alone patch from the Diablo II Patch Page at
http://www.blizzard.com/support/?id=mdt0387p. If the patch does not
correct the problem, please reinstall the game per the instructions
below.

Now, run a thorough scandisk and defrag of your hard drive(s). You
will probably find it helpful to disable your screen saver and power
management features before you scandisk or defrag. Sometimes Windows will
restart the defragmentation and/or scandisk if your screen saver or
power management kicks in. The following webpage has instructions on how to
complete this: http://www.blizzard.com/support/?id=mgi0559p.

Now reinstall Diablo II and download and install the latest Diablo II
patch from http://www.blizzard.com/support/?id=mdt0387p.

If you are still encountering problems please test the game after
trying each of the steps below. Each solution listed has been reported to
solve these problems for other customers.

- Make sure the latest video drivers you are using are compatible with
the latest version of DirectX or you could experience video problems.
Contact your video card manufacturer to ensure compatibility if you
cannot find the information on the page you downloaded your video drivers
from. Make sure you have the latest version of DirectX from
http://www.microsoft.com/directx/hom...ds/default.asp.

- Make sure you have the latest drivers for your Video and Sound cards.
You'll want to check with your computer manufacturer or the Video/Sound
card manufacturer's website for the current drivers that match the
model of card you have in your system. A list of manufacturers with contact
information can be found at
http://www.blizzard.com/support/?id=msi02054p.

- Download and install the latest chipset drivers for your motherboard.
Check the motherboard manufacturer's website for updated chipset
drivers, first. If you can't find updated drivers at the manufacturer's
website, the next two most common locations for chipset drivers are
http://www.viaarena.com/?PageID=2 and
http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/

- Before starting the game, make sure there are no other programs
running in the background. Instructions for how to shutdown all background
applications can be found at
http://www.blizzard.com/support/?id=agn0558p.

- Our games run in 640 x 480 with 256 colors. Try setting your desktop
to this resolution on going to the Compatibility tab before starting
the game. Vista users may find they cannot set this resolution, so they
can skip this step. If you are not sure how to do this please contact
Microsoft for further assistance.

- Make sure all Power Management settings are disabled or turned off.
If you have a screen saver, set it to "None" before playing the game.

We only offer support for the game if played on an Administrator
account. Please make sure the game is running in administrator mode. In
order to set the game as Administrator Mode, please follow the steps below:

1. Right click on the Diablo II icon.
2. Select "Run as Administrator"

If you have additional permissions questions, you should refer to your
Windows help files or documentation.

If that does not allow you to run the game, please make sure you set
the game to Windows XP SP 2 compatibility mode.

1. Right click on the Diablo II icon.
2. Select "Properties"
3. Click on the "Compatibility" tab
4. Select "Windows XP SP2"
5. Click "OK"

In some instances we have found disabling the User Account Control
(UAC) has also alleviated some of the strict permissions Vista has.

NOTE: Disabling the UAC can open your computer up to potential
security risks. Please be advised if you are not comfortable disabling this
we recommend you contact Microsoft for further options.

To disable the UAC:

1. Click "Start"
2. Click "Control Panel"
3. Click "User Accounts"
4. Under the User Accounts screen click on "User Accounts" (this is a
second time you'll see this option)
5. Click on "Turn User Account Control on or off"
6. Uncheck "Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your
computer.
7. Click "OK"
8. Click "Restart Now"

Please let me know if any of this helps.

Could it be that your disk's are just all scratched up, and if only you had told me it was already installed I could have walked you through the process of making the no disk patch realesed by blizzard so that it would still work. For anyone who is intersted I will post if wanted you just need the expansion to do so, But thats not all you need.
Title: Re: Diablo 2
Post by: Night the Lucario on March 30, 2010, 05:47:57 PM

Can you link me to it anyway? It could be useful.
