Thank you! Worked perfectly! Personally I like having the Keep Aspect Ratio ON so it doesn't stretch the game out horizontally, since the game was originally made with a 4:3 ratio :D
Omg, thank you, you have no idea how long i've been searching, since the Direct3D wasn't working, so i couldn't play it on full screen and i couldn't figure out how to use glide wrapper, but this little tutorial is quick and simple. :3
idk why other ppl cant make it as simple and as efficient as you !! good job my friend !!!! :) your tuto is the best ive seen out of all videos ive been through today to fix this problem !!
Wow. I've been trawling the net for days trying to figure this stuff out, but you're the FIRST to troubleshoot a full-screen, clean-res method. Thankyou very much!!
Hello Bob!, Thank-you for posting this , been wondering how to do this, I just started playing this again, after the announcement of Diablo IV, Thanks again
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!! I recently downloaded DiabloII to reminisce in my younger days and have been playing in windowed mode for a couple months now cause I kept running into dead ends. Again thank you for sharing this info to the public.
OMG!!!!! i was trying to play the game for 1 week now...i tried so many things but nothing worked...then i found a video suggesting to add -w to run in windowed mode..but i wasn't satisfied ..Then i found your video....Dude you my friend an angel...a Zillion thanks to you mate...
Thank you soooo much!!!! It's been years since I couldn't play diablo II because the CD didn't work in modern pcs, then a few months ago I download it from Blizzard and it only run in windowed mode. Now I have a fullscreen with the real aspect ratio.
Yo I just watched this vid I've spent the past 2 weeks just trying to get full screen no border and u blessed me with this vid showing not only how to full screen yet adding the beautiful glide fx thank you so much for this vid I bless u with honor and valor
TYVM !!! I was looking at a looong week before my new D2R gaming computer comes in, and now I can truly enjoy my wait with some FULL screen D2 Classic once again... :D
Problem update: After doing all this and then Saving & Exiting the game it will not load up again until I go into Properties and delete that -3dfx addition to the shortcut. Anyone else having this problem and know how TO fix it..?
Well, thank you, again. This process does work with 1.12 and I am now able to play Diablo II again. This time, it will be at 1.12 without Lord of Destruction installed. It has been a long time since I played Diablo II in this way.
Thanks so much dude I am glad to see some gamers are still teaching the new generation of gamers. I respect that, I would shack your hand but we are here and now. One day peace dude.
Somebody PLEASE HELP! I did everything as shown in the video, but I still an error saying that it has encountered a problem when trying to run it. Please help! I feel like I waisted my money Edit: Wait never mind I realized that i didnt have "disable fullscreen resolution" checked on the shortcut which was the source of my problem. You are a life saver!!! Thank you so much!
Yes, Just saw you tut while trying to find a solution to this same problem. It's kind of sad that Blizzard has not updated Diablo 2 with those kinds of features and that you need a 3rd party software at all but whatever, it works, thanks.
I've been using this for the last few days, but after playing once then exiting the game I have to reboot my PC to get it to work again. Besides that this works great.
For anyone still having issues, if you have a G-SYNC or Freesync monitor, try disabling that and see if it works. Mine worked after I disabled GSYNC in nvidia settings. Thank you OP though! I'm playing hardcore and can't afford to click out of my window lol
Probably a long shot to get some help now, but.. I followed this video to a T and the intro plays, but then it just goes black screen after with the music. What did I do wrong? :(
Very nice video. I would like to see this process done a lot slower, so I might be able to pause it and do the steps you're doing. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I am subscribing to your channel, with the hopes that you might "slow down" a little bit on future "How To" videos.
The solution is stupidly simple: in gpu management app (not in system settings) choose "stretched" or "maintain display scaling" instead of "maintain aspect ratio" and any non-widescreen game will run fullscreen.
Thank god! Finally i lock my mouse to the game! i have 2 screens and i streaming, so many times i click outside of the game and my game minimize... In this settings i found captured mouse! i check that as well! problem fix!
It's just important that I tell you that you are the man for this absolutely perfect tutorial.
Thank you! Worked perfectly! Personally I like having the Keep Aspect Ratio ON so it doesn't stretch the game out horizontally, since the game was originally made with a 4:3 ratio :D
You sire are a true patron of the classic diablo thank you for teaching us the way to full enjoyment as we once had it 🎈
This Man is a "straight to the point" type. Very well made and appreciated

Thanks for the tutorial I had spent about 5 hours just trying to get the game to start now it works, keep up the good work sir.
I knew this was going to be a good guide when I saw the Morrowind icon. Great taste, friend.
Thanks for the guide!
Wow. I've been trawling the net for days trying to figure this stuff out, but you're the FIRST to troubleshoot a full-screen, clean-res method. Thankyou very much!!
Thank you! Very simple and straight to the point!
Thank you !
It works in 1019 on a Windows 7 !
Thank you for sharing !
TRUE FULL SCREEN . Thanks a lot !
hmm guess we have a time traveller here
You sir are amazing! Thank you! I have tried every other suggestion out there and the game kept crashing back to desktop. This works perfectly.

I was working on that a few months ago to no avail; this actually works! Thanks so much!
OMG!!!!! i was trying to play the game for 1 week now...i tried so many things but nothing worked...then i found a video suggesting to add -w to run in windowed mode..but i wasn't satisfied ..Then i found your video....Dude you my friend an angel...a Zillion thanks to you mate...
This stretches the screen to fit horizontally. You can simply leave "keep aspect ratio" checked and it will still work, and without stretching.
I prefer playing without stretch,too. Thank you for mentioning this pal
I can't fathom why someone would be bothered more by the black bars than the stretching deformation... original aspect ratio always!!!
@@BillyBatsonShazam Because people have different tastes?
yes and you can see black edges on the screen
Thank you soooo much!!!! It's been years since I couldn't play diablo II because the CD didn't work in modern pcs, then a few months ago I download it from Blizzard and it only run in windowed mode. Now I have a fullscreen with the real aspect ratio.

Well, thank you, again. This process does work with 1.12 and I am now able to play Diablo II again. This time, it will be at 1.12 without Lord of Destruction installed. It has been a long time since I played Diablo II in this way.
Thanks so much dude! I played this game years ago and loved it, but couldn't figure out how to make it work on my windows 10 computer! Appreciate it!
THANKS MATE!
I was struggling with this for about 6 hours, thank you my man!
Thanks so much dude I am glad to see some gamers are still teaching the new generation of gamers. I respect that, I would shack your hand but we are here and now. One day peace dude.
Still work as a charms on 2023, thanks you so much!
yo thanks for the help, my dad and i really enjoy this game but we got rid of our old windows xp computer a long time ago, ty!
Basically the best video on this topic. It's all you need*
Somebody PLEASE HELP! I did everything as shown in the video, but I still an error saying that it has encountered a problem when trying to run it. Please help! I feel like I waisted my money
Edit: Wait never mind I realized that i didnt have "disable fullscreen resolution" checked on the shortcut which was the source of my problem. You are a life saver!!! Thank you so much!
My my I never thought i wld get to play this fulscreen untill they remastered it. thanx alot man
Thank so much. Last step would be to change desktop resolution to square so the game isn't stretched. Otherwise, really appreciated this!

"....watch this shit......" seriously!! dude life saver thanks man!! and it runs and looks better then EVER. NOT ALL HERO WEAR CAPES

Yes, Just saw you tut while trying to find a solution to this same problem.
It's kind of sad that Blizzard has not updated Diablo 2 with those kinds of features and that you need a 3rd party software at all but whatever, it works, thanks.
One piece of a working tutorial, my friend is now fulfilled. Thank you sir!
Thanks a lot for help dude, works brilliant. Now I can wait for Diablo 2 resurected ;)
Thank you, thank you. I have struggle with this for so long.
I've been using this for the last few days, but after playing once then exiting the game I have to reboot my PC to get it to work again. Besides that this works great.

Massive thanks for this video mate, much appreciated
you sir, are a genius and a good person, thank you so much
For anyone still having issues, if you have a G-SYNC or Freesync monitor, try disabling that and see if it works. Mine worked after I disabled GSYNC in nvidia settings.
Thank you OP though! I'm playing hardcore and can't afford to click out of my window lol
THANK YOU whoever this dude is

welp trying it on Win 11 and I only get a black screen after the intro :/ even in a windowed mode
This fix really helped me - great guide!
Probably a long shot to get some help now, but..
I followed this video to a T and the intro plays, but then it just goes black screen after with the music.
What did I do wrong? :(
Very nice video. I would like to see this process done a lot slower, so I might be able to pause it and do the steps you're doing. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I am subscribing to your channel, with the hopes that you might "slow down" a little bit on future "How To" videos.

The solution is stupidly simple: in gpu management app (not in system settings) choose "stretched" or "maintain display scaling" instead of "maintain aspect ratio" and any non-widescreen game will run fullscreen.
Thank god! Finally i lock my mouse to the game! i have 2 screens and i streaming, so many times i click outside of the game and my game minimize... In this settings i found captured mouse! i check that as well! problem fix!
