After upgrading to macOS High Sierra, the installer of Diablo 2 is no longer runnable, and it seems like that Blizzard does not provide a update for this issue until now.
There are at least two ways to make Diablo 2 playable on macOS High Sierra
- Install on macOS Sierra and then copy the bundle to the High Sierra machine
- Use wine to simulate a Windows environment
This article would cover 2. only, here are the steps
- Install homebrew
- Open terminal and type
brew cask install xquartz
brew install wine
-
wine [your_d2_installer_dir]/Installer.exe
-
wine [your_lod_installer_dir]/Installer.exe
- This completes the installation, to start game, go to terminal and type
wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Diablo\ II/Diablo\ II.exe -w
You can save this as a script for quick launch,
happy D2 :) - Screenshot
