Newbie alert, stupid questions!!!!
Hello everyone!
I'm new here, but I am one of those that puts Diablo under hobbies on the cv , and never managed to do much, cept for the first Diablo (still have the cd, but hell, the fact that those don't run is tiring:sad2: ).Always played single player, no internet access from home for most of the time, so I am stuck with my original+enpansion (1.07). And I have to say that when I find Wirt dead, and he spills all the money and his leg, I'm glad, for he always ripped you of when you got something from him, and most of the time was genuin crap...not mentioning that I am not surprised by Cain's manners, he used to to ask for 100 gold for each item he identified, and sometimes if you were out of luck, it was worth less then what you payed to identify it in the first place.But allow me to cut the carp
and try to make a list of really stupid questions:
1. Is my version really compatible with windows 2000, coz it freezes the whole bloody computer sometimes if there are too many things on the ground, or I'm in a big battle...quite annoying, I lost sooooo much gold and so many items that I cannot recall, no keyboard control works, its like alt+tab doesn't exist!
2.Yesterday I read here about ATMA, and I decided to give it a try, and the bloody thing has no useful help button or newbie instruction manual, so...it seems that I lost a bunch of uniques,set items and other usefull stuff that I was planning to move around and all the money that I moved in the atma bank.Anyway, I did look in the atma folder that I have in program files, there are some .org files, but they don't appear on the atma screen,and when I tryed to open them it didn't work, so, seriously, I have no idea how to get back at them and I do know I clicked on the save button a lot, but Bob knows where my stuff vanished:cry: I just got a prompt saying atma has generated errors, and the whole window vanished.
3.Does the 1.07 version have a bug, so that one cannot transmute runes?
4.Because I don't have a partition on the hdd, I can't change the os , so I wonder if I should give up, and try to dl a patch for my game...would all my characters be upgraded automatically?Coz I do have my old ones that were run on a windows xp, with the same install, but all one can do is take them for a spin, coz the pc saves NOTHING.So I just have them in a separate folder, and play with them a bit, coz they are older then the ones I have now, and they look better.
5.I still have a Sir on a cd, from the non upgraded D2, would that work if I copy and convert him to LoD?That one was created on a win 98.
6.Oh, he killed the big guy at lvl 27...which triggers the next question...what lvl should a char be when you can safely move to the next act?Coz I'm preety skillful with the killing, and I was usually done with the whole thing around lvl 35 something...and I did have nasty surprises in the past going in nm with a lvl 35...until I read here that you have to do every map for several times for experience...
Well, thank you very much,I go kick some monster ***:wave:
