Has anyone managed to play Diablo 1 using PlayonLinux ?

I get an error after the Blizzard animation:

I have lso changed to GDI in Display (according to a suggestion in winehq) but it is the same, the game crashes. I think it is something related to DDraw. I would like to make it work since there is a nice MOd http://diablo1.ovh.org/hd/

It shouldn't be much different from Diablo 2.... since they are both using the same engine.

Did you install package d3dx9?

Looks like you are using 32-bit Arch Distro, is this correct?
Make sure to set the virtual desktop in Wine to 1024x768 or something smaller.
I have a feeling Diablo only runs at 800x600 resolution and probably uses Direct X 7 or 8

Hi, I'm using 64 bit Arch but using a 32 bit wine for Diablo 1.

I already had the window in 800x600, but it didn't work. I installed Directx9 and dxd39 as you suggested but I get the same error. Strange, since the game is quite old :)

Oh, do you have the 32-bit libraries for running 32-bit applications like games?
I'm not sure how to do it in arch, but in Ubuntu and Mint those are required for most games in Wine

Yes I do. I can play Battle.net games very well with PoL using the 32 bit version :)  That's why I don't know why Diablo crashes

Oh, are you playing Diablo 1 through Battle.net or from CD ROM?
I've never used Battle.net and I've noticed a few posts about bugs right now.

No, I'm using the Diablo 1 CD directly (this game is too old to be in the battle.net system I guess). In the menu it says that all the requirements are satisfied, but after the Blizzard animation it crashes

Ok, just making sure.
I think it might be a screen resolution problem, because old games like that want to run in 800x600 or even smaller like 640x480 or even smaller...

Can you launch Diablo with "Debug" instead of "Run"?

Then post the output here.
