SlashGaming Diablo II Free Resolution 3.0.0.0

This is the first release rewritten from ground up. It is no longer based on D2Template, instead using SGD2MAPI for its core.

This rewritten code means that previously existing support for versions need to be readded. To demonstrate the effectiveness and flexibility of the new rewrite, and to promote Diablo 09, this release currently supports Diablo II: Lord of Destruction, version 1.09D. This release is ineffective on other versions.

Again, this release only supports 1.09D. It does not support:

• 1.09D with EXE or DLL mixed in from other versions
• 1.09D without Lord of Destruction installed
• 1.09, 1.09B, 1.09C
• 1.12A, 1.13C, 1.13D
• Any other version not mentioned aside from 1.09D

The following changes were made:

• Project is renamed from D2HD to SlashGaming Free Resolution, or SGD2FreeRes.
• Configuration file is based on JSON format.
• Single player resolution is now uncapped. New resolutions can be added into the configuration file.
• Multiplayer resolution is capped depending on the gateway. Diablo 09's custom resolution is set to 1068x600.
• Video option selection crash has been fixed. Selecting lighting quality when lighting quality is High will no longer crash the game.

This release is strictly intended for mod use. It not capable of reading MPQs at this time, so asset files will need to be packed into patch_d2.mpq or the data folder with the -direct command line argument set.
