Quote:Hi,
there are some more pretty mods among the not so famous ones like VK. I would like to suggest SuperDiablo - really cool, especially in SP mode, with some unique elements; second, Rebirth - a modern mod, meeting its self-image of being an expansion to Diablo, but not yet finished; third, the E&W mod - not free of bugs, but worth a look as well.
If you have problems in finding the mod you would like to start, I can upload it.

Quote:I played Super Diablo with my friend LtBr for a little while right before D2 came out and since we were desperately bored. Too easy. We got through Hell/Hell in the early 30's without much problems. This to me means the mod is too easy. This I believe was the mod that had 2 Diablos....

Quote:not only is diablo dead, diablo mods are dead too.

Quote:Hardly. I just started playing Diablo again myself

Quote:I could easily e-mail them to you

Quote:Just did a quick scan of my Diablo downloads directory and found:

Abyssmal
Dr. Zed's Mod
DragonLance
Icestorm
Netherworld
Purgatory
Retribution
Sinister
The Untitled Mod

+ The Dark & a couple of V&K versions

If Roland doesn't have any of those, let me know & I'll try to get them to you.

Regards,

Dako-ta
