Customization

Four files have customization options:
* ProjectDiablo.cfg
* UI.ini
* ddraw.ini
* loot.filter (can be renamed)
These files are in the ProjectD2 directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Diablo II\ProjectD2). They can be edited with any text editor, although the editor may need to be run in administrator mode.
Once a filter is selected from the launcher, loot.filter will link to the selected filter file instead of being used itself - it will be in the filters subfolder and can have a custom name.
== ProjectDiablo.cfg ==
This configuration file contains the bulk of customization options that affect gameplay. Many hotkeys can be set here using standard virtual-key codes. It's essentially a more comprehensive version of the in-game Settings menu, containing most of those options and more.
Some examples of the available options:
* Reload Config - hotkey to reload loot filter changes
* Screen Info Configuration - determines how the info in the upper right corner is displayed. Use %REALTIME% command to show your local time on screen info.
* Gamefilter Configuration - determines how fast the game list refreshes, and whether difficulty & server is shown
* Bnet Configuration - determines whether game name/password/description are autofilled
* Party Configuration - hotkeys for auto-party (join/invite others) and auto-loot (permission to loot corpse)
== UI.ini ==
This file describes where the Settings menu is displayed in-game.
== ddraw.ini ==
This file has options for adjusting video and compatibility settings, such as fullscreen, resolution, or CPU affinity.
Within this file you can also define which shader you want to use. For differences between each shader, see: Shader Comparison
 Step-by-Step Instructions for High-Resolution Windowed Mode
- Make sure you have unchecked the Windowed Mode (-w) in the launcher options
- Locate the configuration file "ddraw.ini" in the "ProjectD2" folder under your "Diablo II" path installation. Right click on the .ini file and edit it with your favorite notepad/code editor.
- Set your window width and height at numbers you desire (for example Full HD = 1920x1080):
; Stretch to custom resolution, 0 = defaults to the size game requests
width=1920
height=1080
* In case you have, at the end of the file, additional lines for width and height - set them to the same values as above
;[game]
width=1920
height=1080
- Set option "fullscreen" to false
; Override the width/height settings shown above and always stretch to fullscreen
; Note: Can be combined with 'windowed=true' to get windowed-fullscreen (borderless)
fullscreen=false
- Set "windowed" to true
; Run in windowed mode rather than going fullscreen
windowed=true
- [Optionall] Set "maxgameticks=-1"
; Run the game with max fps and not capped at 60-70 ish
maxgameticks=-1
- Start the game and enjoy your new resolution setting
NOTICE: If you would like to see your window borders - set height of the window to lower value than 1080, for example 1020. Height and width values are in pixels and You can set them to however values you like, but avoid to put values large than 16:9 or 16:10 aspect ratios.
== loot.filter ==
This file controls how loot is displayed and whether any items should be hidden completely. By default, there are no custom rules for filtering items.
Filters can be selected from the launcher and enabled via the in-game Settings menu.
To install manually, download a filter file and save it to Diablo II\ProjectD2\local and then select it from the launcher. Make sure the relevant in-game settings are enabled. If you want to edit a filter yourself, the Item Filtering page is a comprehensive reference.
