Fix Project Diablo 2 glide3x.dll issue
Starting from Season 3 - Domination, this fix won’t work anymore as dsound.dll
will prevent you to play online (leading to a message: Wrong game version
and disconnect you from the game).
Recently I started to play Project Diablo 2 and started to get the following error while closing the game:
Game.exe - An exception (C000000D) occurred during DllEntryPoint or DllMain in module: …\Diablo II\Project D2\glide3x.dll
and followed by when clicking OK:
Diablo II Exception - UNHANDLED EXCEPTION: An invalid parameter was passed to a service or function (c000000d)
Not a big deal at all as it doesn’t affect in-game experience, but it was a bit annoying.
After some researches, here is how I managed to fix the issue:
1) Download IndirectSound_0_20.zip
2) Unarchive the files (dsound.ini
and dsound.dll
) in your Diablo II\ProjectD2
folder
3) Right click on Game.exe > Properties > Compatibility > Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows XP (Service Pack 3)
And voila!
Hope this will work for you as well. Enjoy PD2!
