Trouble getting patch 6.9b to work

Post by Mareku »

The folder containing the patch does not have a No-CD .exe file, so when I move and replace the files, then try to launch the game, it asks for a CD, which I don't have.

If I move over the No-CD .exe file from the normal folder (pre-patch) and use that to launch the game, I don't get the Awakening opening cinematics or menu, and can't load my characters. It appears to just launch the regular diablo game.

Please advise.

Alternatively, playing without patch 6.9b, is there a way to get past mephisto's spectres? (The reason why I'm patching.) Do they always spawn on that level?

Thanks.

Awake v6.9b works without CD but first for all you need to copy diabdat.mpq from Diablo CD info /game/ folder and run AwakeEN.exe.

Thanks for the reply.
Yes, diabdat.mpq is there.
I just tried running it again and it didn't ask for the CD, but I didn't get the Awakening opening cinematics or menu, and when I try to create a character it says unable to create character.

Install the mod once again, and than patch it. Don't remove any files.

I tried again from scratch:
1. New Wineskin wrapper
2. Install Awake 6.5
3. Move 6.9b files over, replacing the relevant 6.5 files
4. Add the diabdat.mpq to "game" folder
5. Run AwakeEN.exe

Getting same issues as before (can't see Awakening opening cinematic, "unable to create character").

I'm content enough to play 6.5 if you're not sure what to try next.
