How to run PoD under linux
Requirements
"Path of Diablo" mod works perfectly under Wine (just as vanilla D2:LoD does), but its launcher requires some additional configuration. Basically all you need - setup win32 prefix and install dotnet 4.0 there.
Preparing prefix
- Install Wine and winetricks packages from your distro repositories. In case of Archlinux:
pacman -S wine winetricks
- Create new win32 prefix with winecfg. Just close winecfg window after it starts - it already installed new x86 (32-bit) Windows to "prefix32" folder in your user home directory:
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/prefix32" WINEARCH=win32 winecfg
- Install dotnet4.0 with winetricks there:
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/prefix32" WINEARCH=win32 winetricks
Select "install DLL or Windows components" on second screen, choose "dotnet40" option and press OK
Installing the game
- Download game files, patches and PoD installer to any folder as described here.
- Unpack DiabloII_113c_Installer.zip somewhere
- Fire up terminal, enter Original directory first, run
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/prefix32" WINEARCH=win32 wine Installer.exe
- Enter Expansion directory, run
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/prefix32" WINEARCH=win32 wine installer.exe
- Enter directory with LODPatch_113d.exe, run
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/prefix32" WINEARCH=win32 wine LODPatch_113d.exe
- Install PoD launcher. As .msi files aren't executables, make sure to use "wine start"
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/prefix32" WINEARCH=win32 wine start pathofdiablolauncher.msi
Running the game
- In terminal, enter Diablo II directory and run PoD launcher
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/prefix32" WINEARCH=win32 wine Path\ of\ Diablo\ Launcher.exe
- Select "Choose Main Gateway" and press "Set Gateway"
- Press "Update Available" to get the latest client version
- Press "Play"
Loot Filter and QoL settings
