[PC-MOD] Diablo 1 e 2, oltre i 640x480! Opzioni

[TheRuler]

Ho ripreso in mano questo titoletto solo perchè me lo ha chiesto in prestito un amico per un suo amico (si, sembra la solita storia, chiedo perdono ma è vera...) e quindi prima di darglielo me lo sono installato.
Con mio sommo dispiacere ho notato una cosa che non ricordavo... Diablo 2 nasce a risoluzione fissa di 640x480 (massima ris di Diablo 1 peraltro) ma è possibile portarla ad 800x600 con l'espansione Lord of Destruction, che io ho.
Permettetemi un leggerissimo amaro in bocca... erano per lo meno 6 anni che non ritiravo fuori questo capolavoro dell'hack'n'slash (per quanto continui ad apprezzare enormemente di più il primo Diablo) ed anni di alta risoluzione mi avevano abituato proprio bene.

Mi fiondo in rete alla ricerca di patch di aggiornamento, e scopro che è uscita la versione 1.12a con diverse migliorie (io ero rimasto alla 1.10):

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Patch 1.12
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Downloadable Installer Support

- If all required Diablo 2 '.MPQ' files are installed on the
hard drive, the game will no longer require the CD to play.

For users that originally performed a 'Full Installation'
and wish to run without the CD, all '.MPQ' files should
be copied from the Diablo 2 CDs to the Diablo 2 directory.
Most users will only need to copy D2Music.mpq from the
Diablo 2 Play CD and/or D2xMusic.mpq from the Lord of
Destruction CD. Mac users will need to copy these music
files and rename them to 'Diablo II Music' and
'Diablo II Expansion Music' respectively.

Anyone who did not perform a 'Full Installation' will need
to re-install from CD again to ultimately play without the CD.
In this case, a 'Full Installation' is required, followed by file
copy step noted above.

Bug Fixes

- Fixed an incompatibility between Rosetta and OpenGL mode on Intel Mac.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Patch 1.11b
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

FIXES:
- Fixed a bug that could cause a crash when you return to chat after
playing a game on Battle.net.
- Fixed a bug that could cause a crash when the runeword "Peace" was
equipped on a hireling.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Patch 1.11
--------------------------------------------------------------------------


A new Mystery has been revealed!

- Players of Hell Difficulty Realm games are hereby warned once again,
that a series of new and challenging tests await you! The answer lies
within Diablo's Bosses, which span across the world from the Den of Evil
to the Throne of Destruction...


New Items

- Added 10 New Runewords.
- Added new Unique Items that will drop from Special Bosses.


Hireling Enhancements

- Players can purchase hirelings that are within 1-5 levels below their
own level.
- The rate at which hirelings gain experience has been increased. They
should now stay closer to the player's level.


Major Bugs

- Creating a town portal when corpses or other objects entirely fill the
area where the portal will appear in town will no longer crash the game.
- Skills obtained from runewords created while the item is equipped will
no longer disconnect you from Battle.net when chosen.
- Barbarians will no longer become stuck when using Whirlwind right after
Inferno from the unique item Balrog Blade Flamebellow.
- German, Spanish, and Polish users will no longer crash when the mouse
cursor moves over an item that grants an Aura while equipped.
- The game will no longer crash when selecting a skill granted by a weapon
at the same time as switching weapons with the W key.
- Dying or being requested to trade while changing the key configuration
will no longer cause you to get stuck.
- The "Missile Firing too far" assertion error has been corrected.
- Attempting to sell a Horadric Cube or a quest item to an NPC by holding
Control while clicking will no longer disconnect you from Battle.net.


Minor Bugs

- Running the game with -install no longer causes the game to be installed
as a Windows Service. -install is now ignored.
- Sometimes the seals in Diablo's lair would not activate. This has been
corrected.
- Character expiration messages have been updated to reflect the
expiration policy implemented in patch 1.10.
- Unidentified items sometimes caused other set items to display green for
items the player does not have. This has been corrected.
- The German mouseover text for the Ist rune has been corrected.
- Account recovery is now allowed for existing accounts whose name is only
one or two characters.
- When leaving a game on Battle.net, you will now be brought back to the
channel in which you were previously.
- Transmuting an ethereal item now retains the ethereal stats bonuses.
- In Japanese Lord of Destruction, items that add to all Assassin skills
incorrectly stated in their mouseover text that they added to all Druid
skills. This has been corrected.
- Battle.net messages for non-English versions have been corrected.


Fixed Game Exploits

- It is no longer possible to bypass the 10-second hostility timer by
activating a waypoint at the same time as declaring hostility.
- Uber Diablo is no longer killed when Shenk the Overseer or Blood Raven
die nearby.
- Necromancers with Trang-Oul's Set equipped could sometimes become
invincible to attack. This has been corrected.
- Blessed Hammer no longer remains active while in town, preventing
players from subsequently declaring hostility and having the hammers hit
other players for damage.
- Set items retained their multi-piece bonuses after the player died, even
though they were removed. This has been corrected.
- Items with skill-charging effects will no longer give synergy bonuses to
skills when equipped on a character without those skills.
- Pasting from the Clipboard no longer allows the creation of characters
with more than one dash or underscore in their name.

Lo sviluppo di Tchernobog sembra essere ripreso a spron battuto, siamo alla 0.2.2b

Changelog dalla 0.2.0f:

Tchernobog 0.2.2b

Rework displaying %dmg & %chance to hit affixes - they will still show total stats split into 2 (%dmg and %cth separately) but will show each individual affix accurately (and its stat range) while holding shift.
Fix not showing prefix/suffix number on %dmg/%cth/%dmg&%cth affixes (was impossible before).
New crafting recipe - corrupt perfect unique/set items - can drop on hell+ difficulty (recipe qlvl 66).
50% chance to add an affix that does nothing (but doesn't allow trying to corrupt that item again). Can double one of existing affixes or add Ignore Target Defense / +3 spells affix.
Recolor "Tancred's Weird" - was very hard to see in inventory before.
Add grouping of same stats to set items if shift not held.

Tchernobog 0.2.2a

Fixed cinematics being cut off or not displaying on certain resolutions.
Fixed a very rare bug where the game would get stuck on loading screen.
Fixed a bug where rare items would ignore the first suitable affix if more than one was within qlvl range.
Fixed fire/lightning wall having double dmg on central element.
Fixed demonic essence turning into gold if transferred to anvil/stash/whatever using ctrl + click.
Fixed rerolling set/unique affix "armor class: x" with demonic essence.
Fixed removing respec potion after use.
Fixed 1 more room in lost treasure tunnel filling with snakes.
Fixed a bug that could corrupt items with preset spells while rerolling their stats.
Change number of elemental walls segments from 7 to 5 + 2 per 10 spell lvls.
Add a new recipe for removing affixes (like before, enter and leave a game to get it to appear), using varying numbers of Azure Oil (1-4) controls which affix will be removed (first/last/prefix/suffix).
Spells cast from a staff have cooldown reduced by half.
Spells cast from a scroll have no cooldown.
Stop opening the split quantity window if there's only 1 item.
Show inactive set stats - color grey (affixes that need more set pieces than you are currently wearing) and number of pieces required to activate them.
Display partial and full set stats while holding shift.
Added info to spellbook about Apocalypse and Blizzard spells scaling with magic.
Added showing stats missing till perfect set/unique item roll (shown under name if shift held).

Tchernobog v0.2.2

Noktis | Published on Feb 19, 2023

New version of the Tchernobog mod v0.2.2 has been released and added to the download section.

Tchernobog 0.2.2

TO GET THE 2 NEW RECIPES ENTER THE GAME THEN LEAVE IT - THEY GET ADDED WHILE SAVING THE CHARACTER SO WON'T BE AVAILABLE IN THE FIRST GAME YOU PLAY AFTER UPDATE!
Scrolls get +100% spellpower bonus, staff spells get +50%.
Preserve summon stats between levels (now having some summoning gear on swap could be useful - spellpower etc.) - it also means summons don't heal while changing levels.
Golem resist cap increases to 80 at spell lvl 20 and 85 at 25.
Cap monster physical resist at 95%.
Fix golem idle animation (after teleporting or changing level) - will stay a bit longer on player after teleporting as a side effect.
Make scrolls have 5 charges.
Add scroll type to belt item type selector.
Crafting materials max stack size has been increased from 100 to 999 (can't go higher because number wouldn't fit on the item square).
Warrior's repair skill and Sorcerer's recharge staff are on cooldown when you start/join the game.
Allow sorcerer to recharge scrolls with his skill (up to clvl / 5 charges - 15 charges at lvl 60).
Add a chance to warrior's repair skill to increase max durability - clvl * 2% chance for increase by 1 (2 at level 60).
Add Demonic Essence material as a VERY rare drop to quest monsters (and even more rare drop to regular bosses/champions) - allows rerolling stats/spells of rare/unique/set/crafted items.
Add respec potion as a VERY rare drop to quest monsters (and even more rare drop to regular bosses/champions).
Idea by Miacis - Add Oil of Binding as a RARE drop to quest monsters (bigger chance) and regular monsters - allows merging stats from rare rings/amulets into rare items that have an empty prefix/suffix slot - ONCE per item (max are 4 prefixes & 4 suffixes, you can check which one is which by pressing shift - prefixes will have P and suffixes S).
Show merged stats on rare items (to see separate affixes hold shift).
Add showing multiplier to "half freeze duration" affix (X1 default, if you have 2 = X2 - it keeps halving the freeze time - X1 = 50%, X2 = 25% etc.) - stacking half trap damage affix is pointless (that's why no multiplier shown)! It only works once.
Only magicfind of alive players counts towards loot.
Fix crash after leaving the game while interacting with something (waypoint/stash etc.).
Limit max range from which you can interact with objects to 2 tiles (Earlier you could open shared stash from anywhere if someone was standing in front of it - 2 tiles to still allow interacting with shared stash if another person is standing in front of it).

Tchernobog 0.2.1h

Fixed spiritual shrine corrupting inventory.
Stop interacting with stash till it gets fully loaded.
If potion type for a belt column is set, pressing a number for a column that is empty will use potions from other nonempty columns with the same type.

Fixed Artisan sometimes dropping materials that couldn't be picked up.
Fixed message box not being centered after changing resolution.
Fixed on hit/on attack spell cast affixes being inactive in a game till an item got reequipped or player died.
Fix penetration above 128.
Fix cold and fire debuffs (from monsters) lowering wrong resistances.
Add showing unique/set/recipe drops on chat.
Add timestamp to chat messages.
Spiritual shrine now adds its gold in 1 pile instead of cluttering all free slots.
Changed base ring of "Farnham's" and "dream" rings to be close to their qlvl - means they should drop more often than before.
Tweaked generating uniques - algorithm should be more consistent.
Tweaked generating sets - algorithm should be more consistent.
Added /chance command that shows droprate for set items / uniques and info about their qlvl / their base item's qlvl / set elements.
Negative HP regeneration can't drain HP below 1 in town.
Reset unique items tracker between games.
Reset set items tracker between games.
Add elements to names of "Farnham's" unique rings.
/clear command - clears chat.
/clearall command - clears chat AND chatlog.

Skill descriptions: Dreadfull -> Dreadful.
Fix message boxes being off for freshly created characters or after changing resolution. (was only really noticeable for the message shown to new characters - press X for char info).
