##### Technical Problems and Fixes For Diablo II Players #####
##############################################################

SOME ANTIVIRUSES/FIREWALLS LIKE BITDEFENDER MAY PREVENT YOU FROM PLAYING DUE TO FALSE-POSITIVE ALERTS.
MAKE SURE TO ADD YOUR DIABLO II FOLDER TO YOUR ANTIVIRUS/FIREWALL SCAN EXCEPTION LIST OR DISABLE IT IF YOU CANNOT START THE GAME.
ADD THE FOLLOWING EXECUTABLES: "Loader.exe", "Game.exe" and "TDAgg3.dll" INTO THE SCAN EXCEPTION LIST, SOME VIRUS SCANNERS MAY DETECT THEM AS A VIRUS OR HIDDEN FILE (IT'S A FALSE-POSITIVE ALERT, HIDDEN FILES ARE PART OF THE ANTIHACK).


1. Game Starting Problems
- RUN "Loader.exe" AS ADMINISTRATOR, AND SET COMPATIBLE MODE TO WINDOWS XP SP2
- SET COMPATIBLE MODE TO WINDOWS XP SP2 FOR BOTH "UsaBattle.exe" and "Game.exe"

Download and Install Microsoft .NET Framework 4 (Web Installer)
Download and Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86) and/or (x64)
Download and Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86) and/or (x64)


2. Cannot connect to the server
- Your antivirus/firewall/spy-addware program is blocking our anticheat files. Disable it and/or add the entire Diablo II folder to the exceptions list.


3. Error when starting the game	
- Make sure there is a "Game.exe" and "TDAgg3.dll" in your Diablo II folder (some antivirus may auto-delete it due to a false-positive alert)


4. Some AntiViruses may automatically remove the "Game.exe" and "TDAgg3.dll". How can I fix this?
- A part of the game gets a false alarm, and therefore it gets deleted.
- Disable your virus scanner for 5 minutes.
- Add "Game.exe", "Tdagg3.dll" and the entire Diablo II folder to the antivirus scan exceptions list.


5. The game doesn't launch after you see the antihack message
- Your pc may be infected with spyware or a forbidden cheat is running.
