Thank you so much for this. D2 is such a great game. Happy to be able to play it again on my Mac :) Cheers

Hello!
I'm entirely new to coding, and I was wondering if you could provide me with a foolproof explanation of the following.
I get stuck at "Run the EXE files to install the game: ". It gives the following error: wine: cannot find 'd2/installer.exe'
I'm able to open Registry Edit, but have no idea how to use the programme and Google isn't helping me.
I'm sure if you could help me with this, I could figure out the rest. If it's of any help, I'm running Mojave 10.14.6.
Thanks in advance!

What I wrote in this howto for those exe's is a relative path, but you need to use the actual path to the installer file. I just updated this howto to include OSX Catalina.
