Hellfire v1.05
#9
Khanduras.net seems to experience random downtime where the site becomes inaccessible.

As an alternative, I suggest you take a little extra time and try the following downloads/links which will yield the same result -- only better, since qualakon's distribution currently contains older things that there are now either newer versions of, or better alternatives to.

To that end, 4 of the items listed in the original post (Hellfire v1.01, Marsh's Hellfire v1.02 patch, Ulmo's Gillian Stash and Diablo Clicker) are all part of Marsh's Unofficial Hellfire mod (which includes v1.01 built-in), which you can download here when Khanduras isn't working:
http://thehellmod.ucoz.ru/Downloads/Mods...00-102.zip (File size about 833kb)

-----

For the latest DirectX wrapper that should fix compatibility issues with newer operating systems, I highly recommend this:
http://www.strangebytes.com/index.php/pr...a-patch=60 (Scroll to the bottom for the download)

-----

The other half of the contents of qualakon's package are all contained in two mods of mine, which you can get from these other threads in this same forum:
Hellfire Patch v1.02.A5
Character graphics Fix Pack v1.1

-----

Finally, with all of these packages unzipped into your Hellfire directory, you have the equivalent of a newer version of qualakon's package. However, you will probably encounter errors trying to start Hellfire complaining that the CD is missing. That's because Marsh's mod, by default, has PlugUlmo's loader configured to run the game from the hard drive instead of the CD. To fix this, you need to decide which way you would prefer to run it (Hard drive makes loading screens much faster, and eliminates a lot of mid-game pauses and stutters), then take the following steps:

Belix Wrote:To run from your drive/folder: Copy DIABDAT.MPQ off of the Diablo CD (not Hellfire!) into the Hellfire directory where Loader.exe is. You should now be able to run the game and apply the modifications.

To run from the CD: Edit 'PlugUlmo.ini' in the Hellfire directory with a text editor, and change the following two entries:
Disable_CD_protection=YES --> Disable_CD_protection=NO
use_DIABDAT_from_HD=YES --> use_DIABDAT_from_HD=NO


Hope you enjoy the game. If you have any problems, technical or otherwise, feel free to come back and mention them in the appropriate places, and I'll try to help:

For technical problems getting Hellfire to run, the best place to read/post right now is:
Diablo Backwards Compatibility Guide
