Official Diablo 1.12 Patch

- Patch 1.12
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Downloadable Installer Support

- If all required Diablo 2 '.MPQ' files are installed on the
hard drive, the game will no longer require the CD to play.

For users that originally performed a 'Full Installation'
and wish to run without the CD, all '.MPQ' files should
be copied from the Diablo 2 CDs to the Diablo 2 directory.
Most users will only need to copy D2Music.mpq from the
Diablo 2 Play CD and/or D2xMusic.mpq from the Lord of
Destruction CD. Mac users will need to copy these music
files and rename them to 'Diablo II Music' and
'Diablo II Expansion Music' respectively.

Anyone who did not perform a 'Full Installation' will need
to re-install from CD again to ultimately play without the CD.
In this case, a 'Full Installation' is required, followed by file
copy step noted above.

Bug Fixes

- Fixed an incompatibility between Rosetta and OpenGL mode on Intel Mac.

Wow, nice! No gameplay changes... but at least playing D2 will be easier.
BTW no-cd patch means: no more gameplay changes at all.

[tuftyfella]

awesomeness.

[ZappaFan]

Read on the BNet forums somebody said MH isn't working with the patch. Maybe there's hope for this patch yet!

[crawlingdeadman]

did they get rid of the bots?

[Krovvy]

Can anyone get the no-disk working? I've tried copying the files, and haven't yet got it to work. Odd since Warcraft III, and Starcraft's patches worked fine.

[TurbulentTurtle]

Tried it, worked fine.
I smashed my CD into a million tiny pieces already.

And if you need to reinstall for any reason turb......
