BW's Drop 'N' Dupe Mod for Diablo II and LoD: 2004 copyright MasterWerks Studios. This mod will dupe any items that are 1x2, 1x3, 1x4, 2x2 or smaller on open or single player games. It wont for example copy 2x3 things such as armor or 2x4 things as in grandfathers unless you have a stash enlarge plugin which then causes other peoples items to vanish unless they have the stash plugin also. I didnt add in things such as potions n keys or tp's. it works for helms shields weapons arrows jewels and charms. All you have to do to dupe is put the item into the horadric cube n transmute and it will make 2 more of them if there is enough room in cube. You can also socket items by putting them in the cube with an el n eld rune n transmuting them it will add as many sockets as the item will allow. To make it easier to socket things I have made akara and few other npcs sell el n eld runes and lowered cost on them to 1 gold, you will also notice Akara and Magic Dealers all sell the runes;1-33. As well as random Grand Charms, Large Charms, Small Charms, and they also sell all forms of Gems. I Also made this mod so that the drop ratio has been GREATLY increased. Items will drop in single player mode, open bnet games. This Mod is also compatible with Ancestral Recall if you have an MPQ extractor. If you do, simply extract the AR MPQ File and export it to the Data file located in the unzipped AR Folder. The ladder only cube recipes work on single player and open bnet too. the cube recipes is for person with mod only people that join wont get that effect unless they download the mod too. This mod works for 1.09 (I think) and works well with 1.10. Tested a character from level 1 to level 89, in all modes with no crashes. Open B Net though causes lag when the items drop. This is due to the amount of items that drop; which range from Magic, Rares, Sets, and Uniques. These can and most likely will drop in decent numbers, though it won't drop so much that you can't see whats there. To install First make sure you have the 1.10 beta or rather 1.10s beta version of Diablo2 LOD installed. 1) Copy the data folder with all its sub folders and files to Diablo 2 mainfolder. 2) On your desktop is your D2/LoD Icon. Right click it and choose COPY. Then PASTE It on your desktop. Rename this ICon to "BW Dupe Mod." Then right click it again and go down to Properties. 3) The window that pops up will have 2 tabs (or more, depending on your OPSys. There will also be 5 lines which with you can type in or change anything. Do not change anything on these lines, EXCEPT where it says "TARGET" It looks like this: "C:\Program Files\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe" 4) You will add "-direct -txt" without the quotes so it looks exactly like this--"C:\Program Files\Diablo II\Diablo II.exe" -direct -txt (Make sure this change stays outside of the quotation marks. Click APPLY, then OK. By now you should have an extra D2/Expansion Icon on your desktop entitled "BW Dupe Mod" or whatever you want, and the data file in your MAIN Diablo II Folder located in your Program Folder on your harddrive. Example: "C:\Program Files\Diablo II" All thats left is to Load D2 and have fun. Remember, its all about the DROPS. LOL Have Fun! And don't take this mod on Closed B Net: IT WON'T WORK! :) Aerylon and Lannah Blackwolf. Special thanks to ALL the folks @ Planet Diablo, D2 Sector, *Spitfire rules* Phrozen Keep, and all the folks on each forum. But especially thanks to the man behind the Duping part of this Mod; U KNOW WHO U ARE! Cause had it not been for him, my mod would have stayed a lousy Drop Mod. lol :) And thanks to my loving wife for her patience, dedication, love, and cuddles. Your the reason for each of my breaths... This mod has NO guaruntees and is meant as freeware, and can be distributed. BUT only if it is kept whole, and this readme follows it, and credit is given.
