Why D2RMM?

A traditional D2 mod distributes new versions of game files for D2 to use. If two mods wish to modify the same file, they both distribute a new version resulting in a conflict as to which mod’s version to use. D2RMM resolves this issue via a new mod format that describes how D2’s files should be changed. This allows you to include multiple mods together even if they modify the same files (e.g. multiple mods that all add Horadric Cube recipes).

Installation & Usage

Download D2RMM and extract the .zip archive anywhere you want. D2RMM is fully portable and supports multiple parallel installations with independent mod loadouts.

Download and extract mods into the \mods\ directory inside D2RMM’s directory. For example, D2RMM\mods\StackableRunes\mod.jsnv. Or simply use "Mod Manager Download" on Nexus Mods.

Run D2RMM (open D2RMM.exe), switch to the Settings tab and specify your D2R game directory. D2RMM will warn you if the directory is invalid. For example, C:\Battle.net\Games\Diablo II Resurrected

Switch to the Mods tab and customize your mod installation settings. For example, you can enable or disable mods by clicking on them, or tap on the settings button to customize their mod specific preferences. You can drag-n-drop mods to change the load order.

Hit “Install Mods” to have D2RMM compile your mods together and generate a classic D2 (mpq-style) mod.

Launch Diablo 2: Resurrected by using the "Launch D2R" button. Alternatively, you can run D2R with "-mod D2RMM -txt" via Battle.net (like this) or via a custom shortcut (like this).
