My sincere apologies, I have been reading a lot here over the last couple of days and can't recall coming across a mention of that mod being unacceptable. I realise that it is not on the FAQ of acceptable ones, which I did read but I made the mistake of assuming that because it is a loader that there shouldn't be anything wrong with it, my mistake.

I am not very computer friendly, and I used it because it was the first one to appear when I googled for somthing like that.

Since the mistake was my fault I won't trade, and will probably just continue as I have been with manual muleing.

I'll probably do as suggested in the near future and do a clean install if I can arrange a friend to install the 1.13c patch for me, I have a couple of characters further advanced than I have ever gotten any before at level 73 and 70 and want to continue with them for now.

Thanks for your time and for not banning me outright which I realise you could have done.

Sincerely redaussie

I like your style
Come post in the OTF Where it's safe because you can talk about anything but Diablo.

I deleted GoMule a while ago and I just started playing Diablo again so I wanted to store some uniques I found and I just downloaded the file, extracted it, ran the jar inside with java, and I get this.

Code:

It still opens GoMule after the error but it doesn't really work well. Can't open character files and some of the icons are missing. :/ Windows 7 if that makes any difference. And this is the same computer I had GoMule on the first time.

You need to extract everything. Check the folder GoMule is in and see if all the files were extracted.

If they are all there where did you put the GoMule folder? Try placing it on your desktop and see if it opens correctly there. I just tested it and I get the same error and problem from only having the jar file.

Re: ATMA/GoMule/RWM etc - Help Thread

I have a question here. How do i bring something from 1.07 to a higher patch? I've got a 1.07-mpk-ring i want to bring into 1.09d. Doesn't seems to work to just drag from the d2s-file into some char in 1.09..

nulio · Apr 30, 2012

Re: ATMA/GoMule/RWM etc - Help Thread

You have to put the ring in a 1.07 mule and them open it with D2 1.9b. After that you can move the ring in atma from that mule to a 1.09b stash/char.

Re: ATMA/GoMule/RWM etc - Help Thread

So I just reinstalled d2 and wanted to run atma again. I used it before but apparently cannot remember how. I've tried to follow the steps but I cannot get anywhere with it. I'm on 1.12 and windows 7 if that matters. When I download it the only things listed are up to v 1.10. Any suggestions and help would be appreciated. Step by step since I'm not computer savy.

By 'things' which do you mean, items or pull down menus?

If you mean an item's display, all the items created in 1.10 and later will be listed as 1.10+
If you mean pull down menus, you should see up to 1.11 Try creating a new character or stash and see which version is listed.

If you have the current version of ATMA it will still work for any version of the game. When creating 1.12 and 1.13 stashes create them using 1.11 in the menu. If you do not mind java and will not be using older, pre 1.10, patches I'd suggest trying GoMule instead. It is a lot easier to move items and the sort feature is nice. Hope that answered your questions.

Edit: Even though you are using 1.12 I'd suggest you download ATMA for 1.13. It will be backwards compatible and you will not have to patch ATMA for 1.13 if you decide to upgrade later.

Re: ATMA/GoMule/RWM etc - Help Thread

After a somewhat disappointing D3 start (at least for me) i decided to get back to good old Diablo 2. I didnt play on ladder for years, and want to start a SP character this time around. A couple of questions about this community rules that i didnt quite get, or to be more specific questions about supported mods.

I never used mods but RWM looks great, but links from this site points to a version for 1.13c Diablo2, and most recent version is 1.13d. Is 1.13c the patch everyone is playing on, will RWM work on 1.13d? Also i have seen a couple of ppl say they got Gheeds on their Sp char, isnt Gheed ladder only item? Does RWM also gives ladder only uniques?

I also i read that ATMAs can bug some items, so it would seem that GoMule would be better for muling, but i am under the impression that ATMAs is more popular, why?

Also if i trade something (and i doubt i will) is there a 100% certain way to be sure that the item is legit, not duped or anything?

Kestegs · May 22, 2012

Re: ATMA/GoMule/RWM etc - Help Thread

RWM is the same for 1.13c and d.

All items drop in SP without any mods (except torch and Anni of course)

ATMA only bugs the indestructible mod on an item, so that it doesn't get removed when you unsocket it. Gomule is vastly more useful and popular for the current patch, I would recommend using it.

There is no way to be sure about an item being legit. Generally we don't trade with people we don't trust though.

Welcome to the SPF! You should maybe make an intro thread if you plan on hanging around here :nod:

Apostrof · May 22, 2012

Re: ATMA/GoMule/RWM etc - Help Thread

Thanks for the reply, i do plan on staying around

so if i get this right things like Tomb Reaver can drop in SP? Awesome

And one final question - why does spell check tag Diablo as a mistake

pharphis · May 22, 2012

Re: ATMA/GoMule/RWM etc - Help Thread

^Ha. I never noticed that. You'd think it would be added to the dictionary around these parts.
Yup, you can find tomb reaver and gheeds and all that junk. Especially Tyrael's

Kestegs · May 22, 2012

The spell checker is from your browser, that's why!

Re: ATMA/GoMule/RWM etc - Help Thread

That's it, I'm never using a browser again. You'd think I would have realized that lol.

Re: ATMA/GoMule/RWM etc - Help Thread

Help! I'm a newb and just started playing Diablo 2 for the first time (bought it a decade ago). Characters are no longer playable. Edit: See bottom, I just can't use GoMule without making characters unplayable.

What happened:

I downloaded GoMule and opened my characters in it. I moved a sorcerer staff from my necro to my sorcerer. I tried opening the sorcerer in Diablo 2 to see if the item transferred and she wouldn't open- "Bad Inventory Data" error. I then tried the Necro and it said "Bad Dead Bones".

Then I tried to open the necro in GoMule and it said "disconnected" at the top of the window and displayed no items or anything- the character wouldn't load. Then I did the same for my sorcerer, same deal.

Did I ruin my characters?

I'm on a Mac 10.6.8 with GoMule R0.3 Donkey and the latest version of Diablo 2 (I've never updated it, I downloaded the version from Battle.net 5 days ago).

EDIT: I found backups of my characters in the GoMule folder and those restored the characters (In game and on GoMule). So I tried doing the item swap again and again the characters stopped working in GoMule and in Game. Thoughts?

I doubt you ruined your characters if your backups worked. I have little experience with a Mac, but I hope these either help you with your problem or get you to thinking of how to fix it.

Just a few questions.
Do you have LOD, the expansion? GoMule requires 1.10+ expansion to work properly. If you can I'd suggest trying to emulate windows and trying ATMA.

I'm not calling you a 'hacker' or anything like that, but I have to ask since it could be a possible reason for this.
Do you have any outside editing programs or have any items or characters from the web or open b.net? GoMule is picky about items. If it thinks the item is bad or not valid it will probably give you an error. As suggested in the above question try ATMA. ATMA is more forgiving of items and characters. It also works with classic, Diablo II without LOD. Again, I am only trying to help. I apologize if you feel offended by this question.

Ahh, I don't have the expansion. That's my problem. Thank you for your help!

I can't say I'm that committed to muling (or even playing Diablo 2) to spend the $10 on the expansion, but if I do, I will try GoMule and drop a reply to confirm that it works (or doesn't).

Also, I'm pretty ignorant about hacking and programming, but I appreciate the thorough response.

Kindly,
E

PS: This is the first time I've ever used a forum for anything.... it's magical! Thanks again for your help.

Re: ATMA/GoMule/RWM etc - Help Thread

After being away from this community for awhile, I'm glad to come back. Unfortunately, I forgot how I set up Gomule originally. For some reason, Gomule is only recognizing the save files in C:/ProgramFiles(x86), but windows doesn't let other programs modify those in that folder, right? So I brought the files over onto the desktop. When I start up Gomule though, it doesn't recognize the desktop files.

Does anyone know what's up?

By does not recognize what do you mean? Does it give you an error or something like that?

There are two things you can do to overcome the protection scheme windows provides. You can re/install Diablo II and GoMule outside the Program Files folder. I do not suggest this unless you do not know a lot about computers and are willing to reinstall Diablo II.

Or you can do as Oscuro suggests below. I think this is the best solution since you already have Diablo II installed. I do not have step by step instructions, but google should help. Search for "Full Control" and Windows 7 or vista depending on your OS. If you have XP then you do not need this.

The easiest/cleanest solution is to just grant your user account "Full Control" access to the save folder.

Re: ATMA/GoMule/RWM etc - Help Thread

I have full control now, but when I try to save it gives me

error

can not create backup save file in C:\Program(x86)blah files blah
