Building

To pull the project down, run go get github.com/OpenDiablo2/OpenDiablo2

On windows this folder will most likely be in %USERPROFILE%\go\src\github.com\OpenDiablo2\OpenDiablo2

In the root folder, run go get -d to pull down all dependencies.

To run the project, run go run . from the root folder.

You can also open the root folder in VSCode. Make sure you have the ms-vscode.go plugin installed.

Linux

There are several dependencies which need to be installed additionally. To install them you can use ./build.sh in the project root folder - this script takes care of the installation for you.

Windows

MacOS

  1. Before start, download and install Go programming language here if needed.
  2. Launch Terminal (Note: Restart any open Terminal console if needed)
  3. Fetch the OpenDiablo2 project with this comand: go get github.com/OpenDiablo2/OpenDiablo2
  4. The OpenDiablo2 will be at ~/go/bin/OpenDiablo2 but we still need to download the official Diablo 2 and LoD.
  5. Purchase and download Diablo II (2000) and Diablo II: Lord of Destruction (2001) from Battle.net. The downloaders will be in form of EXE.
  6. Find a Windows PC, or use Virtual Machine (e.g. VirtualBox), or Bootcamp for Mac, or Parallels, to install both games using the downloaders.
  7. Copy the installed games from Windows to macOS's /Applications/Diablo II/ folder. Requires administrator permission.
  8. Make sure the /Applications/Diablo II/patch_d2.mpq is in place.
  9. Run OpenDialo2 by ~/go/bin/OpenDiablo2 in Terminal.
  10. Enjoy.
