BNET Launcher vs Direct Launching of Game

have you tried using the same login method but launching D2R.exe via start command from cmd?

it never gave me any trouble, and in addition to lauching the game i can also configure game’s priority in windows without going into task manager & clicking, and also i am able to exclude any unwanted e cores ( if i had any) by setting processor affinity with this command…

this has never failed me… besides the problems you have may be due to battle net not registering your new machine name as a trusted device on your account or the number of cores you launch the game now may have something to do with it…

bsides it’s not -password -server

to be frank you need to specify
-username (your battlenet login email)
-password ( your battlenet password)
-Adress ( here either eu.actual.battle.net or us.actual.battle.net or kr.actual.battle.net)

as for the syntax with start command:
you create a shortcut to cmd.exe not to d2r.exe ( you can change the icon if you want).

C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c start “” /priority /Affinity hex “C:\Games\Diablo II Resurrected\D2R.exe” -username -password -Adress

priority either Normal, High, or Realtime
hex is kind of specific
it’s a hex convrersion of a binary number where number of digits is your amount of cores wihere 1 is active core and 0 is inactive core first digit o the left is first core and the first digit on the right is the last core
in my case of core 2 Quad i have 4 cores so i want to use them all so 1111 which equals F in hex so /Affinity F and i use all four cores, not really practical for me however if someone has more cores and wants to exclude some this is the way

just switch 1 to 0 in the cores you don’t want to use input the number to IT calculator in windows and input th value from hex field in the calculator into the comand instead of the “hex” word

do bare in mind that after copypasting the line, then except the obvious adaptations like cottect path to D2R and setting the priority and hex values you also have to fix the quote symbols… unfortuneatly D2R forum replaces the original windws quote symbol with it’s custom ones and divides them in to begin quotes and end quotes, hence it will not work under windows and needs to be corrected…
