Is there a reason for this
Surely the game cant be limited to this as the maximun resolution it seems however there is no option higher than this........

You can play it in windowed mode if you don't want to see the rough text. Add "-w" to the shortcut.

To do so, right-click the shortcut, go to "Properties" and add "-w" to the line called "Target".

Edit: Clarification

D2 expansion was a crazy addiction. I eventually had to stop playing and sold my account w/ all my stuff on ebay for like $40. Definitely a fun game tho :)

Apparently you can get it working at any res you want under Wine in Linux. Try googling it if that's an option for you ;)

I really don't like the 1.10 patch that much. It just made things much more difficult.

I thought you could resize the res with the XPack. Don't remember the choices though.
