[:1]so as the title states, i am getting that error.
I have installed diablo 2 via discs, and attempt to install LoD as well via a disc I just purchased. I get this error however.
When I attempt to DL LoD through bliz, i get "this download is not authorized" every time.
I am getting very frustrated because there is little to no information on this problem on google. Does anyone have a solution or did I Just waste 25 dollars on a decade old game from a damned arrogant company?|||Google: "this download is not authorized" Blizzard
Results: 1630
second result:
http://www.gamertechtv.com/2010/bliz...ot-authorized/
Think that's what you're looking for.|||this did not help. it still occurs. additionally this does not explain why i cannot install off the disc. the whole reason i purchased a hard copy was so I wouldnt have to sit through the long *** download. I have very fickle internet (i tether off a droid 2) so DLing is difficult|||In that case try patching up your original d2 installation up to 1.13 and then give LoD install another try. To update you can just connect to bnet from d2, but if your internet isn't reliable I guess you may also try downloading the installer from blizzards homepage. (http://us.blizzard.com/support/artic...rticleId=20758)
You can also make sure that the registry entries for d2 are pointing at the correct path (start->run->"regedit" enter->ctrl+f->"Diablo II" enter->check that InstallPath and Program points correctly).

Diablo 2 Locks Up When I Save And Exit.... But not my mac?
[:1]Hey guys, been having this really annoying problem and i dont think hard restarting my mac is good for it....
when i save and exit a game, maybe 1/7 times it will freeze. i have no idea why this is happening... my mac is almost new, just bought about 6 months ago
If this helps:
Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac9,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.66 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 6 MB
Memory: 4 GB
Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz
Boot ROM Version: IM91.008D.B08
SMC Version (system): 1.37f3
But the weird thing is because i play diablo in wondowed mode so i can surf the net and all at the same time, when it locks up everything else is fine except d2 (which is frozen). i cannot restart the comp through the menu as it says must quit d2 and i cannot force quit the frozen d2.
any help is much appreciated .|||Make sure you have the latest software updates from apple (click the apple icon on the top left of your screen and select "software update...") as some older versions of mac os x can be buggy with older games like diablo 2.
Also, when d2 freezes you can try to press command+option+esc to bring a menu with all your currently open programs. Just select d2 from the list and click "force quit" it usually works ok and you can resume your work as normal.
hope that helps!|||thanks for the help mate!
my mac is always updated as soon as new updates come out..... just checked then but am up to date.
i will try the command +option + esc next time.
thanks very much!

Can not pick up dead body...help
[:1]My lvl 7 assassin can not pick up her dead body. There is nothing at all in my stash and she didnt have any gear on, however; it says I am over burdened. Guessing it is a glitch in the game.|||could be lag if your playing on bnet
fyi, items from corpses get equiped if possible, or put into your inventory, not stash
if its your only corpse in the game, its safe to save and exit
all items on it will be in town when you start/join another game|||Yeah my inventory is totally empty thats what i ment my stash only has like half empty. The corpse doesnt even have items in it so lvl, str, dex restrictions dont come into play....This has happened in 7 times from entering and exiting games. Never come across it before.

onnectivity issues
[:1]i've looked at the other treads with connectivity issues but with my issue it different. For one i never played on battle net before or online so i don't think it's a tban issue . I have 2 pcs and a laptop i run of a wireless network but the pc i'm talking about is connected through an ADSL router, also it doesn't connect to the internet and will only let me host are join tcp/ip games. The network connection says it's connected tho.
can some one help me out.|||to host tcp/ip games on the internet you need to configure your router and/or modem to forward ports 6112 and 4000 (tcp and udp) to the host pc
if your playing on your lan, it should work fine
just start the host, then have the clients connect to the host server ip 192.168.x.x
edit: if it fails to connect on lan, try diabling software or windows firewalls|||it's not the hosting are joining games part i can do that but it will not let me on battle net also it wont let me on the web|||ok, make sure your dsl modem and/or router are configured correctly
you may need to contact your isp for help with that

Diablo II won't run on Windows 7: help!
[:1]I just bought a brand new laptop which, as all brand new laptops nowadays, has Windows 7. I installed Diablo II and LoD, and it wouldn't run because of compatibility issues. That problem was easily fixable in Vista with the compatibility wizard, but with Windows 7 it didn't work; when set to XP Service Pack 2, it would open but "blink" between the game and the desktop, and when set to Windows 98 it wouldn't launch at all. I tried changing from Direct Draw 3D to 2D, and it wouldn't launch.
My video card is Nvidia GeForce GT420M.|||Make sure you ran all updates from windows update before anything else.
Then if that still doesn't work try setting it to XP service pack 2 and then kill the "explorer" process. It's what I did to run diablo 1 flawlessly on win 7.
Hope that helps, post again if you need more clarification on how to do that and I'll do my best to post a step-by-step.|||Quote:

So all you gotta do is run d2 (in winxp SP2 compatibility mode), and press alt-tab to bring the focus back to windows.
Once there, push ctrl+alt+del keys and select the option "open task manager" (or something like that). Once you do that, at the top you'll see four tabs.

need to insert CD after patch 1.13 and copying mpq files
[:1]I have patch 1.13c installed, and the game still requires a CD in the drive. How come?
I followed the instructions, and copied all the mpq files from the CDs into my main D2 folder. Is there anything else I need to do? How can I avoid putting the CD in the drive with the 1.13c patch?
I am running Windows 7 x64.
Thanks|||Register CDkeys @ battle.net and DL the installers. Removes all the hassle :)

Unhandled exception, Breakpoint 80000003
[:1]I have looked in both of the stickies in this section and haven't found anything that seems useful. I've also Googled this problem and found a very other threads in which people had it, but it seems to be a pretty rare error because Google had very few results that were relevant. The few things that I did find also did not provide much help.
Does anyone know what to do about this error? I've tried quite a few things but I keep getting it. Basically after playing for a minute or two, the game will freeze, and when I minimize it I get an error saying "Unhandled exception, Breakpoint 80000003," the only option is "ok," and it then closes Diablo 2. Does anyone have a solution for this? Judging by some of the things I looked at in Google it apparently has something to do with a video card, but could I fix this without having to go out and buy one?
I've tried deleting stuff for more space, copying the MPQ files, reinstalling, as well as a ton of other things.|||os?

You will need to reinstall AFTER getting rid of the registry keys that say that you still have LoD installed.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE> Software> Battle.net Highlight, delete
If any or all of these keys can not be found, do NOT worry, some of them may have been removed during the uninstallation process.
Then, go and delete your Diablo directory. You can keep your saved characters by copying the save folder to the desktop.
Next, reinstall the game, and then put the Save folder back into your directory.
Lastly, I recommend patching the game manually. You can download the patch here from the link below. Once you've downloaded the patch, bring it to your DiabloII directory and execute it there.

A strange occurrence @ Chaos Sanctuary
[:1]So i'm doin CS as usual and reach the left seal and what do i see- the seals are opened and no boss or minion corpses are around?
Same thing with the top seal, it's opened, but there is no sign of boss or minions.
Last seal was closed and the Balrog minions spawned and Diablo spawned aswell.
The path to the 1st two seals was full of monsters.... there was a guy who joined my game(he left before i entered CS), but i hardly doubt he opened the seals without clearing the monsters around it.
Never have i seen something so odd in diablo2 b4, y it's a relatively buggy game, but this tops the bill for me.|||the other person could have tele'd to the first 2 arms of chaos and killed the 2 boss groups
corpses stay for about 5-10 minutes, they would have poofed in the time it took for you to get there clearing everything|||Hehe i guess the easiest explanation is usually the right one- I didn't know that bodies could poof LoL.|||If it was a paladin (not to unlikely) then it is also likely that he may have used redemption to "clean up" the corpses. The blood splatter from dying fire enchanted bosses would stay, but as long as none spawn FE ...
This could explain it if the case was that you arrived shortly after him, but if you took long enough the corpses just timing out is as mentioned also a possibility.|||Well the odd thing about the fact that, if it was that paladin, why didn't he clear the entire Chaos(area lvl 85) because according to the hypothesis, he went str8 for seals.
There were monsters between the first two seals afair. But then again, maybe he just doesn't know an important detail about CS.|||The reason he left could be a simple one such as lag or a rl interruption.
As for clearing only seals and not the entire area, could be that he was past the level where they give worthwhile xp and just wanted diablo (solo in a game with more players = more xp, so sounds reasonable).
Either way it doesn't matter to much, we'll never know anyhow.
|||or he could have been getting his butt kicked there and alt+f4 out to avoid death penalties
again its unlikely, but anything is possible|||Could've been his mom, "come to dinner you newb lolz" And he had to exit
And as for that not killing anything except the seal bosses. Maybe he just doesn't know that monsters in there can drop good stuff.

I'm always amazed at what most people don't pick up in your average hell chaos/baal run.. white and blue items that could be worth more than any unique or rune.

This isn't just true for dupes.
I have had especially Keys "poof", whereas I believe they dissapear after a set amount of time|||Standing rule of thumb: If you did not find it your self, it might poof because it can be duped.
Contrary to who says what...there's no such thing as perming...unless it's your hair.

Uber Tristram portal - dissapeard
[:1]Killed Izual, cubed and got the Tristram portal.
Died and accidentely took the Furnace of Pain TP (from before) and the Tristram portal was replaced by Furnace Of Paint (red portal).
The other day I lost two keys set that was on the ground.
Not good Tristram days for me.|||You should make the portals all around the town...not on top of eachother. At least that is what I gather happened from your post.|||Kush is right, I personally put one near Larzuk, down in the corner near Anya, near the merc guy,a dn then tristram kind of near Malah.|||Yep, don't make the reds on top of each other. It's not a bug.

Can't connect to USeast
[:1]I haven't played diablo 2 in a year, I lost my CD keys so I had to go and buy another 45$ battle chest.
After the installation I went on, only to meet with some problems because I'm running windows 7. After fixing them I go on to USeast, wont connect me, at all. This is not a temp ban because I haven't even gotten on yet.
I've tried running the program in Administrator, tried restarting my modem, tried leaving the modem off for a few minutes and restarting it.
I tried this thing with the run>cmd, its suppose to show you if port 6112 is open. Apparently mine isn't. So I followed these annoying instructions, only to get at a brick wall. That site with all the yellow flashy crap on it, the list of modems. It didn't have mine, f**king lovely. So I picked one that was similar to my name. I further followed the instructions, and it brought me to a site where it asks for my username and password.
I don't have a f**king username on this random a** site, no registration. So I thought I'd use the name of my private cable internet, and use the password. Didn't work.
What the hell am I suppose to do? I can't forward my f**king ports and everything else doesn't work.
Blizzard has gone to f**king sh*t since I've last played.|||Alright, I tried port forwarding ports 4000 and 6112 ~ 6119, and that didn't work.

Flamebellow bug still exist?
[:1]I joined a duel game yesterday and there was an invincible dream-stacked barb sitting outside of town. He was easy to sorb with a tgods, but no matter how any nados I laid on him, he couldn't die.
I found this thread that talks about a flamebellow bug. Has it been patched?|||no it has not

Problem with Battle.Net, help would be appreciated.
[:1]For a few days now I've been having this persistent problem with my games. I can login, select a character, join a channel and make a game no problem.
However, when I'm in the chat or in-game, the battle.net chat commands don't work. Stuff like /time, /friends list, etc. Also, when I quit the game I instantly get booted past the chat, and character screen and back to the login screen. I've checked my ports and I don't need to forward anything (I was playing fine before and my ports hadn't been touched).
The latest thing I've done is install the latest version of WL Messenger.
Again, any input or help would be appreciated, thanks.|||Nevermind, I discovered and fixed the problem. I will document it here incase anyone has the same problem in the future.
Basically, installing the latest version of WLM must have edited registry entires that it shouldn't have. So the Battle.net server list registry entry was messed up. The fix was simple: I just ran RegEdit, went under Local_Machine, software, and deleted the Battle.Net entry. I did the same under Current_User. I started up Diablo 2 again and the problem was gone, as the server list renewed itself.
Thanks for the help anyways.

my itens just disappeared
[:1]well, i think its a bug!!
i was played at west ladder with a pally when i died in a duel. ok, its normal(saddly). my pally doesnt have str for use some itens and for he wear some itens he needs wear first rings/amulet with str. after this i change this itens and wear other (he cant wear a fortitude, for exp. but with her he can!). But when i died i couldnt get my full body(full inventory).. when i stack some itens i got my full body and for my surprise my magefist, HOJ, 2sojs, maras, cta and arach arent there!!!!!!
i made the HOJ and i found the magefist.. so i have sure that isn't duped.
What do u think that happened?|||Items. Not itens
I'll tell you what happened. You died more than once and did not recover all of your corpses.
Sorry for your loss.
Only one corpse follows you from game to game, and the game does not value items like we do in trade.|||sorry for my english :x
and thanks for the reply. I will not make that mistake again

Constant 'Failed to join game'
[:1]This never happened when I last played, but it seems like at least a third of all games I attempt to create now will fail at the loading screen, and throw that message in my face.|||check or disable your firewalls, something is most likely blocking port 4000|||Just tried it without a firewall, same problem.

Items Poofing?
[:1]Wasn't quite sure as to where this thread belonged so if this isn't appropriate I apologize in advance.
I found 2 plain 3o crowns in the pits today and decided to transfer them along with an amn rune. I had no other means viable since all my friends were offline so I hid them pretty well in a 'park' game. When I managed to get back in the 2 crowns were gone but the amn wasn't.
So to sum it up, 2x 3o crowns & 1 amn rune, dropped on the ground in a public game (but hidden pretty well). When I return, the helmets are gone but the rune isn't. Now my questions:
1. Is it possible for legit/found items to poof like so? I imagine they poof'd because the amn was still there and I would figure a 3o crown to be a fairly worthless item (or not?); so why would anyone take those and not the rune (though the rune itself is low). And if someone did take them is there some kind of mod/hack that allows people to track me outside of their party?
2. I had to wait somewhere between 5-15 minutes before I re-entered the game. Often times (usually while transferring in public games as described above/or trying to follow my friend into a duel game) I get the 'game full' message. The only thing is, I suspect the game isn't full due to 1. my friend telling me so and 2. there was only 3-4 people in the room. Is this some kind of connection/lag issue? or is it just people filling the room randomly at a ridiculous pace? That would explain the second scenario but not the first.
I'm not really distraught by my losses but I am curious as to what's going on (if anything that is and I'm not just being stupid). Thanks in advance for all the help/responses.|||Yes.
Anything dropped and left on the ground can poof, some items will go faster than others.|||For the record, keys and essences disappear the fastest. I learned that one the hard way lol.

Suggestion: new item.
[:1]I was just doing act 2 for about the 1000th time and had a wonderful idea for a new gold sink.
The Cartographers Map
basically its a buyable item at the potion vendor similar to scrolls, its a one use item that reveals the current act you are on (if thats too overpowered maybe the current zone you are in?).
The scrolls will cost 10,000 gold each to discourage purchase until at least nightmare difficulty and it will be a 1 use scroll.
Hope you guys like the idea and I will be crossing my fingers that a blizzard dev will read it and like the idea (or be inspired to make a similar item of there own to similar effect).
See ya all in game, Retaxis.
edit: oooo just had another maybe even better idea, make a mid range runeword helm that doubles the draw distance of the map (if thats possible with current engine although i think not).|||Reveals the current act you are on? Why would someone pay for this info when it's there in plain sight?|||I think he means reveals the minimap for the entire act. (Ex: shows you where everything is so you don't need to look for maggot lair..etc etc )|||meh, not like its gonna be implemented, but I'd definitely use that item time and time again. Constantly searching for stuff gets boring really fast, and I think with such an item I probably wouldnt be rushed as often as I have been.
