anyone know how to install diablo 2 on high sierra
i can't find anything on search
everyone seems to be having the same issue once you get the game install setup form bnlizzard and click install it does nothing and haults the computer
im trying to get diablo 2 going on my macbook

try to find the image files for the original discs and mount a virtual disc. caveat is if you bought the game online the cdkey will be much too long.. so you will need to use a keygen or have an old one on a sticker/in an mpq file to extract.

i use a hackintosh with vmware fusion. I am able to run windows xp as a virtual os. You can install d2 on a virtual os. However, your cpu and motherboard must support virtulization. I think it's called vt-d.

Another option is using wine. But it is not as good as using virtual os.

i just think blizzard's modern installer and client in general are hot garbage compared to the original iso's, running a windows vm kind of defeats the purpose

Yep, installer is broken on high sierra, and if you install it using older mac version it still won't work properly (it will if you manually call /Applications/Diablo II.app/Contents/MacOs/Diablo\ II from terminal ...).

What's worse, wine doesn't work either since the reset, they fucked up something so you can't use winery/playonmac either. Diablo II on wine was platinum for years, now its garbage. Crashes when trying to login/just after.

Sadly your only way right now is VM/bootcamp. Or install using older OSX and then manually start from terminal as i said above.
