It would be nice to check if Diablo II works on Windows with 4GB VRAM.
Result is, that Diablo 2 does not run on Win8.1. Even if i tried following steps:
https://eu.battle.net/support/en/article/diablo-ii-compatibility-issues-and-...
I still got the same message box pop-up saying "UNHANDLED EXCEPTION: ACCESS_VIOLATION (c0000005)". The same message box pops up on Wine-1.9.0. So compatibility has been reached ;-))
The only way to run it on Win8.1 is through second workaround, i.e. run in windowed mode: "C:\DiabloII\Diablo II.exe" -w (not tested on Wine).
You could run ddraw2, ddraw4 and/or ddraw7 test with the attached patch.
I'm not able to get working Binary. I don't have those minigw stuff. Based on above expirence, if this is still interesting test, would you mind to attach final EXE. Or if this test-patch goes in, i can download pre-compiled test and report back.
If Diablo 2 AppDB admin is still active, it would be nice to mention working winetrick recipe as this bug is going to be invalid i guess :c(
