Please give legacy mode better resolution and wide screen support

Yup, now that we’ve tested legacy toggle in the early access beta.

I can say with certainty that It looks even worse than in the original D2LOD.

(no openGL, glider support, not even forced widescreen option Is available).

We need 1068x600 resolution asap for legacy toggle :frowning:

if they made a better version of it , i don’t know if it could be called “legacy” anymore though as it would be an improved version (even if still pixelated)

That being said , i don’t agree nor disagree with it.

As someone who has played Diablo II for years with Sven’s Glide Wrapper and the openGL support restored (and the 3d audio and environmental sounds thanks to Creative Alchemy), I was surprised at how bad ‘legacy mode’ looks on Resurrected. The classic game is capable of looking a lot better than that.

Yeah indeed, It looked so bad… You can make the original game look much better

Bring 16:9 to legacy toggle please (1068x600)

Legacy mode graphics are incredibly worse than original graphics… like eye bleeding bad in comparison to d2LOD graphics same resolution settings.

I know right, I also had to turn down contrast & brightness a lot when I switched to legacy toggle. It’s like they made It worse looking on purpose…

i noticed that also, legacy mode looks very bad compared to vanilla D2

Yes makes absolutely no sense…

I hope blizz would look In to this.

If you load up D2LOD and compare It to D2R Legacy toggle, D2R Legacy toggle looks much worse…

Also 1068x600 to legacy toggle to enable 16:9 please

Doesn’t seem like they care unfortunately…

At this point I would hope they could at least make the legacy mode run as smoothly as the original game…

I don’t really agree since in d2 right now you can just drop in a glide wrapper and get a real resolution. They can always keep 800x600 as an option.

Yeap exactly this, though glider doesn’t actually give 1068x600 (16:9) resolution to original D2.

Only in PD2 & Path of Diablo they modded the real widescreen support in.

Isn’t legacy mode just kind of a gimmick? Why play it that way as a standard? The remastered mode is already rendering in the background anyway.

It shouldn’t be a gimmick, the old art style still looks amazing, I would love to be able to play the old version of the game in 16:9 with some upscaled resolution.

I don’t know. I think it’s way too much to ask of blizzard to make incremental increases in-between the remaster and legacy.

Well I would like to switch back/forth when ever, I mean It’s there one button click away.

But not playable completely due to limited to 4:3… It’s not a hard fix to put In a custom resolution of 1068x600 etc…

I would play more in legacy if widescreen was supported, right now the bars on the sides are a huge no, also game is very pixelized. Hey at least we can see that it’s now D2 v1.15 (can only see game version in Legacy mode).

Made a video that shows how each version looks:

PD2 (Project Diablo 2) 1068x600
D2:LOD (Battle.net, glide wrapped)
D2R Legacy Toggle
