How is Diablo II : Resurrected
Sure - wrapper link https://github.com/bayaraa/d2gl/releases/download/v1.1.2/D2GL.v1.1.2.zip

What was the loot chase like in vanilla D2 (Before Runes)?
Me too, but Blizzard closed the door on that intentionally. As I replied to the op, the graphics have dramatically improved in D2R thanks to the integration of D2GL. Some examples: https://github.com/bayaraa/d2gl

It's S7 o'clock and I decided to become serious about D2
Senpai and PD2 developers DID NOT create the D2GL plugin that enhances graphics. Nothing against PD2 devs, they're also awesome, but since you mentioned donating, do a bit more research first. https://github.com/bayaraa/d2gl

FPS drops
What fixed it for me was using D2GL 1.1.2 https://github.com/bayaraa/d2gl/releases/tag/v1.1.2 extracted it to my PD2 folder and now it's smooth as butter.
- Want to play single player with higher fps. Regular vs plugy?

Welp, time to play necro
It's bayaraa's d2dx fork, doesn't work on ladder though I've heard it'll be implemented officially in season 7. https://github.com/bayaraa/d2gl

Large PTR Update: Bugs, Buffs, QOL & Big Graphical Update
We have implemented support for the new D2GL video mode by d2 community member bayaraa. In your PoD launcher you will see a new (very experimental) "d2gl" option to try out. Use CTRL+O while in a game to open up the D2GL options menu. This video mode supports high resolution text like D2R and has a faux high frame rate animation for smoother gameplay.

Nintendo Network shutdown – The beginning of the end
Parts of DX5 and previous, such as the "retained mode", are missing from current versions of Windows entirely. Much of the remaining implementation is buggy and introduces render artifacts.
Open source projects such as dgVoodoo offer a solution to run old games, by re-implementing old DirectX and Glide on top of current DirectX [1], similar to how Wine runs DX games on Linux on top of OpenGL or Vulkan.

What is the best solution to play mid to late '90s games on modern hardware and Windows 11?
I have not tried this myself, but there are two compatibility wrappers that implement old graphic APIs for modern systems - nGlide and dgVoodoo2.

Thanks for the help with the UI y'all, more questions for ya!

There needs to be a rewritten version
It's a wrapper for old DirectX 7/8/9 games that makes them use DirectX 11/12/Vulkan instead: https://github.com/dege-diosg/dgVoodoo2

Final Fantasy XI (FFXI) and Windows 11 Home
How to install DGVoodoo2 for use with Windower: download the latest non-dbg, non-api, non-source-code: .zip https://github.com/dege-diosg/dgVoodoo2/releases Unzip it. Move dgvoodoocpl.exe and MS\(x86)\d3d8.dll (just the d3d8) into -- playonlineviewer folder for retail or the same folder that your loader exe is in for private server (you can overwrite any old one in there if you like). Right click on dgvoodoocpl.exe and run as administrator. At the top right press Add and select the same folder as you selected earlier (playonlineviewer folder for retail and/or the folder of the private server loader). On the General tab, set your Adapter(s) to use / enable to your graphics card (note that, if the game won't launch after these steps, then try going back, selecting the same folder again in the dropdown menu at the top, and change it back to All, but it should work most of the time with your graphics card selected and will make sure that graphics card gets used. -- known to be necessary with SurfaceBook laptops, and maybe with external graphics card enclosures as well (untested)) On the DirectX tab, set VRAM to 512 MB (higher if you're using HD textures) and unckeck dgVoodoo Watermark at the bottom.
