Customization/en

Four files have customization options:


 * ProjectDiablo.cfg
 * UI.ini
 * ddraw.ini
 * loot.filter (can be renamed)

These files are in the ProjectD2 directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Diablo II\ProjectD2). They can be edited with any text editor, although the editor may need to be run in administrator mode.

Once a filter is selected from the launcher, loot.filter will link to the selected filter file instead of being used itself - it will be in the filters subfolder and can have a custom name.

ProjectDiablo.cfg
This configuration file contains the bulk of customization options that affect gameplay. Many hotkeys can be set here using standard virtual-key codes. It's essentially a more comprehensive version of the in-game Settings menu, containing most of those options and more.

Some examples of the available options:
 * Reload Config - hotkey to reload loot filter changes
 * Screen Info Configuration - determines how the info in the upper right corner is displayed. Use %REALTIME% command to show your local time on screen info.
 * Gamefilter Configuration - determines how fast the game list refreshes, and whether difficulty & server is shown
 * Bnet Configuration - determines whether game name/password/description are autofilled
 * Party Configuration - hotkeys for auto-party (join/invite others) and auto-loot (permission to loot corpse)

UI.ini
This file describes where the Settings menu is displayed in-game.

ddraw.ini
This file has options for adjusting video and compatibility settings, such as fullscreen, resolution, or CPU affinity.

Within this file you can also define which shader you want to use. For differences between each shader, see: Shader Comparison

loot.filter
This file controls how loot is displayed and whether any items should be hidden completely. By default, there are no custom rules for filtering items.

Filters can be selected from the launcher and enabled via the in-game Settings menu.

To install manually, download a filter file and save it to Diablo II\ProjectD2\local and then select it from the launcher. Make sure the relevant in-game settings are enabled. If you want to edit a filter yourself, the Item Filtering page is a comprehensive reference.
