Direct draw error

D1 doesn’t work.
At launch from official launcher, it crashes (with a directX 2??) with an erro.

There is a DirecXDraw download available to fix the crashing and screen issues for Diablo 1 here…

why an original game should be fixed from fans instead of software house?
really sad

Hey Kevan,

Because there are two versions to the game.

The original from 1997 (sounds like you have this one). And the remastered one released a couple weeks ago.

I just bought it off of the BattleNet Launcher and I cannot get the fixes to work. I tried to request a refund but am stuck in a loop on your support page…where is the remastered one?

(EDIT: Fixed the info below)

For a the refund, does this ticket path work?

Currently there is no D1 remaster from Bliz.

“none of your orders are eligible for refund”…is it because this was under warcraft? Also, is there a different remastered version available?

Oh sorry! For some reason I thought you were talking about Warcraft. I linked the Warcraft refund by accident. Here’s the D1 refund:

If it denies you there, click the “I need more help” link at the bottom. That will send you to a manual refund ticket.

There isn’t a remastered version D1 from Blizzard. As for an updated version of D1, GoG sells one that you can try:
