As i wrote install PD2, so that's 1.13 and add plugy for 1.14b, that's how it worked for me, plugy 1.13 did not work level 1 1 point 1 month ago edited 1 month ago. Not only did Plugy solved the storage problems of Diablo II, but it also made it easy to share items between characters without having to use multiple versions of the game or any muleing program. As a bonus, when you install Plugy, you get these additional features: The Runewords that are exclusive to the Battle.net realm become available in.
There is no need for modern computer to play this modification, but if you want 99% success in programs & games installation, make sure that your Windows is clean, up to date and free from viruses.
Step by step:
Diablo II: Lord of Destruction
Only one thing that you must worry about is version of your Diablo II: LoD — it must be 1.12a. You can install Diablo II and the LoD addon from you old CD's and apply a patch, or get digital copy from the internet. Beware of the client's modern autoupdate technology!
Median XL Ultimative
After the client installation process, all subsequent steps should seem like a breeze. In this case all that you need is download Median XL Ultimative and extract «patch_d2.mpq» from .rar archive to the Diablo II folder (answer Yes about replacing):
D2MultiRes
D2MultiRes is a .dll that allow you to play in your native (or other) display resolution. It is not only about the graphics, it is also about field of view and smooth mouse movement. Just try it by putting all files from archive to your Diablo II folder:
PlugY
PlugY just a small program that have big powers. It extends your inventory and Cube, make you stash near-infinity big and available for all of your characters. You will not able to play without PlugY after trying, so unpack it to your game folder:
Final preparations
Last, but most important things that you must do is:
- [Only for Windows Vista and newer] In the Properties menu of D2VidTst.exe and PlugY.exe (they in game folder) set compability mode to Windows XP Service Pack 2:
- Launch D2VidTst.exe, wait when it tests your system and choose DirectDraw 2D Mode.
- Open PlugY.ini and change some values:
- Optionally you can change AlwaysDisplayLifeAndManaValues to 1 and...
That's all, you are ready to play the game! Launch PlugY.exe and beware ;)

First, I am french, and I can't write or speak english very properly. Sorry.
I would like to install PlugY (http://plugy.free.fr/en/index.html) to get fonctionnality for the game Diablo 2.
When I launch the .exe file to install PlugY the message 'unhandled exception acces_violation c00000005' appears.
Under windows, It seems I just should launch the install with the '-w' option (we can see that solution here : https://us.battle.net/forums/en/bnet/topic/12878498159http://www.kylecaulfield.com/diablo-2-lod-vista-errors/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obLR-CJrcvE)
