--INSTALLATION--
1. Find the Diablo2 directory on your computer.
example- C:\diablo2
2. Find the file named patch_d2 (which is a .mpq type file). Make a copy of this file and save it
somewhere safe.
example- C:\my documents
3. Extract the modded patch_d2 file from the zip folder into its own folder for safe keeping.
4. Copy and paste the modded patch_d2 file into the Diablo2 directory. It should ask you if you want to replace the existing file click "Yes".
5. In the Diablo2 directory is a folder named "save", inside it are your saved characters, make a backup copy of all your
characters that will play in the mod. (I just made a backup copy of the entire folder)
6. Start Diablo2 and have fun!
7. If you want to go back to the unmodded patch that you saved in step 2 above.
just copy that file and paste into the Diablo2 directory. (over writing the modded patch)
