Anyone noticing any issues with Diablo 2 LOD and Leopard 10.5.3?

lindstrom · May 29, 2008

Just saw in another thread that someone reported that 10.5.3 broke Starcraft (in what way was not described, but I assume that it won't load).

Is there any cause for concern regarding Diablo?

These two might be completely unrelated but the thought crossed my mind.

I just recently started with D2 again, and I have not had the time to update Leopard as I am still at work.

Can anyone confirm that D2 LOD is still working properly after the update?

Tom B. · May 29, 2008

I think that whoever it was in that other thread simply meant that StarCraft still doesn't work (on Penryn MacBooks and MacBook Pros), rather than it suddenly stopped working after installing 10.5.3.

As for Diablo II, I will try it out when I get home (in 5 hours), as well as StarCraft and WarCraft III, but I'm sure there will be no problems.

geWAPpnet · May 29, 2008

Yes, there is an issue! Diablo 2 LoD will not start anymore on an Intel Mac with 10.5.3. This is true for all MacBooks and some iMac versions.

Hopefully Blizzard will give us another patch!

Thanks mate, I really appreciate your help. I was not aware that StarCraft did not work earlier, my bad.

Very much looking forward to hear what you discover when you test this out. I won't be home to try this myself for another 8+ hours so it will be very interesting to watch this thread in the meantime.

Ok, sorry, I was wrong in my other post.

Diablo II: Lord of Destruction unexpectedly quits straight away every time, and StarCraft II: Brood War just bounces a few times then does absolutely nothing.

But the good news is that WarCraft III: Reign of Chaos and The Frozen Throne both work completely fine.

Works on my iMac. Just ran it up, graphics and all still works.

Starcraft still works too.

Going to check this and starcraft on my wife's SR MB.

Starcraft won't start but LOD works.

Since we don't play these anymore, not bothering to re-install to see if that helps. Just deleting all the files now.

True but you can patch your program which is crashing.

We did file a Radar on this today.

It is not clear what patch we could provide which would address this - and the app as-is works correctly from OS X 10.3.9 through 10.5.2, so this looks like a regression in OS X plain and simple.

Catfish_Man · May 29, 2008

Runs fine here as long as I don't turn on OpenGL mode (which has been true all along on Intel Macs afaik).

I didn't mean to seem to snarky. Fighting my own bugs.

I just filed RDAR://5973763 against it as well.

The crash is in Rosetta and it is probably a timing problem with Apple being too clever in optimization of what gets loaded/converted when.

In the "good news" dept. we have a fix for the OpenGL issue in final testing internally. I do not have a schedule for its release but the coding to fix it is done.

Oh nice

Glad to hear it. Good luck with the 10.5.3 issues.

lindstrom · May 30, 2008

Okay, talk about mixed messages, glad I asked about this =).

Will have to ponder on this upgrade for a little I think.

Cool. Glad to see that there is still development on the game even though its so far into the "long tail"

Side question: Will you be among the Blizzard contingent at WWDC?

thejadedmonkey · May 30, 2008

They (SC & D2: LoD) both work fine for me (MBP C2D w/ ATI x1600)

I don't have brood war.

As always, I want to thank rbarris & Blizzard for being on top of these things. I don't have an Intel Mac or 10.5.3 (yet), but I think responsiveness - in a non-company forum, no less - and continuing support for years-old games is the standard every company should aspire to, and I applaud them for it.

xushi · May 30, 2008

I sent an email to Blizzard's support team today. I just got a reply from them,

Hello XXX,

This looks to be a bug with 10.5.3. We are working with Apple to try and resolve it. Keep checking the battle.net forums for any updates, please.

Hi rbarris. I just bought Diablo2 battle chest (new) today. I have the most recent revision of Macbook Pro. After installing (using the OSX installer from blizzard's website), the game crashes immediately on launch saying it "quit unexpectedly."

Here's the punchline: I am using OSX 10.5.2, not 10.5.3. So maybe this is not a problem with 10.5.3 after all?

In the "good news" dept. we have a fix for the OpenGL issue in final testing internally. I do not have a schedule for its release but the coding to fix it is done.

That is awesome, thanks to the entire blizzard team for still updating 7 year old games.

And Diablo II:LoD (& Starcraft w/o the expansion) is working fine on my 10.5.3 MacBook, at least once I got it installed, but that took awhile. The OSX installer started, but did nothing, no screen or anything, so I had to install it on a different computer and then transfer the files to my MacBooks, but it has worked fine once I did that.

New patch out today. Game still crashes immediately on my MacBook Pro 10.5.3. Great.

Still crashing for me too. I'm on a MacBook Pro running 10.5.3. Since I recently temporarily moved to Hawaii, I bought my 2nd copy of the game this week since I had the urge.

Oh well, I'd still like to thank rbarris and the whole Blizzard and mac team for updating these ancient games. It is a testament to the quality of the support and the creators that the game still has players and a staff that updates it.

Anyone noticing any issues with Diablo 2 LOD and Leopard 10.5.3?
