Hi to all!

I recently bought a laptop with 15,4' display that supports 1280x800
resolution. Does anyone has an idea how to make Diablo 2 Exp run in
that resolution without distorting the picture. When I start the game
in 800x600 mode it becomes alfull. The only solution for now is to run
the game without streching the picture to the maximum supported screen
resolution but in thet way the picture is a square in the middle of the
monitor... not good at all.

Thanks!

You might try using the GLIDE3-to-OpenGL-Wrapper found here:

The current release (1.3c) has support to scale to desktop size (option
Desktopresolution) and use FSAA to improve picture quality.

Right click on the shortcut icon, properties, compatibility tab, and
right in the middle should be disply settings 'Run in 640x480 screen
res' and that should do the trick. I got 1280*1064 and I use to get the
same thing
