make a modname.mpq folder instead of make a mpq file ie: my mod name is dark, so make a mod folder named dark.mpq, put your moded data folder into it, ie dark.mpq/data/global/excel/level.txt make a modinfo.json file, and put it into dark.mpq folder open modinfo.json and add { "name": "dark", "savepath": "../" } now put the dark.mpq folder into game folder, ie: Diablo II Resurrected\mods\dark\dark.mpq Make a shortcut of D2R.exe, add -mod dark -txt ie: "e:\Diablo II Resurrected\D2R.exe" -mod dark -txt launch game and play. A quick way to combine your mod files and play
