8. Compatibility & Others - Lonegirl Studios

Other Manifestoes

Nagahaku — Sat, 27 Jul 2024 17:10:04 +0000

Due to some basic modifications within ISC table, vanilla saved characters won't work with MOD_T.D.E.

As many unused Blizzard Artworks are activated in MOD_T.D.E. but their HD versions don't even exist in D2R, this MOD won't have a D2R version, just for classic LoD.

MOD_T.D.E. would be totally 'open source' (are .txt tables source code? I don't think so, yet many modders do not offer .txt versions, so my MOD is indeed some kind of 'open source'), if you want to use any of my features, please credit me.

Happy Gaming~

Full Cinematics Pack Related

TDE Full Video Pack

You can enjoy cinematics in ANY language that MOD_T.D.E. supported including 'Chinese Aomeisoft', however, the video pack is too huge to be included in the MOD pack, you have to download it separately.

Chinese Speech Pack Related

Nagahaku — Sat, 27 Jul 2024 17:07:30 +0000

As D2R didn't offer Amazon's 'Three Wishes' speech after killing Izual or other abandoned speeches, this speech pack won't have them.

D2GL Related

Nagahaku — Sat, 27 Jul 2024 17:06:00 +0000

D2GL plugin offered by this MOD is a Highly Customized version, HD text fonts are almost same as the MOD interface, as the Chinese Font base are extremely Huge, when running Chinese versions, first loading time would be slow.

HD Font function partly conflicts with PlugY's Rune Word list display, page turning buttons won't show if HD Font activated.

BaseMod Related Settings

Nagahaku — Sat, 27 Jul 2024 17:05:50 +0000

I have already offered a 'BaseMod.ini' within the pack, it has all basic necessary settings enabled, you can enable more but beware of possible conflicts.
No need to enable Charm Zone function, as my MOD has already offered a soft coded 40 Grid limit for big inventory pack users.
Please Keep [SpawnMissingSU] Disabled, I've already introduced these Super Unique Monsters to my Mod and arranged their Locations, enable them again in BaseMod would Mess the game up.
Due to a BUG of BaseMod, if a Charm grants you Aura when Equipped, you have to Re-Equip that Charm every time you start a game to make it functional.
Don't Enable Merc Full Equip, might be conflicted with my soft coding merc equipment system.
NEVER Enable Crossbows for Act 1 Merc Rogue Scouts! All Fringes in MOD_T.D.E. are some kind of Crossbows in order to cheat the engine for certain purposes, so enabling this option would definitely mess up the game!
Do not turn off 'Goblin Patch', it's NOT just used for importing Goblins, what it really does is making 'umonXX' columns of 'levels.txt' work for ALL Difficulties, not just Normal. Activating it would make you spawn special Champion monsters as you wish and disable unwanted monsters to be spawned as Champions.
New Ethereal related formulas would BUG armors' defense multiple times, so I fixed the bug with BaseMod, if you deactivated this bug fixing, you may acquire some ridiculous high defense armors by using such formulas.
Dynamic Monster Life Bar is Activated by default, but it conflicts with the famous HackMap Plugin and D2GL HD Font.
Items with no socket would show its possible max sockets.
Charsi can imbue more items after the Quest completed but requires money.
Larzuk can drill more sockets after the Quest completed but requires money.
Anya can customize more items after the Quest completed but requires money.
Vendors can sell Normal or Superior Items in later games.

PlugY Related Settings

Nagahaku — Sat, 27 Jul 2024 17:03:01 +0000

MOD_T.D.E. uses Highly Customized PlugY 14.03 as the game launcher, which includes Full language support and detailed Stat Pages, if not specially needed, please don't switch to other versions of PlugY or other launchers.

Open Character Panel then type '/page6' to check Rune Words list.

Diablo Clone would be activated by selling One 'Stone of Jordan', and the game won't automatically sell them, you can modify 'PlugY.ini' to change this.

Pandemonium Event is deactivated, as MOD_T.D.E. is using BaseMod for this function, if you activate it in PlugY, the Bosses would be doubled, you can try if you are bold enough~

Skill & Stat Unassigning deactivated by default~~ Token of Absolution becomes much more important.

Of course you can change other settings within 'PlugY.ini', but at your own risk~

Compatibility and Others

Nagahaku — Sat, 27 Jul 2024 17:02:05 +0000

You Must have an executable Diablo II Lord of Destruction copy.

I'm not a big fan of Plugins, so I can only make sure that MOD_T.D.E. is fully compatible with PlugY, BaseMod, D2GL and D2DX, not sure if HackMap is OK, perhaps many manual settings are required.
