About Back to Hellfire:
This is a modification for Diablo II Lord of Destruction v1.10. It focuses on re-creating the feel and the atmosphere of Diablo and it's expansion Hellfire while keeping some features from the sequel. Those are features that improve the gameplay in my opinion - arrows, boss graphics, mercenaries to name a few. Don't expect to get a full re-creation of Diablo and Hellfire in the mod - it's very different yet still close to them. After all, if Back to Hellfire was exactly Diablo: Hellfire, what would be the point in it?
Back to Hellfire has a different storyline to suit the bigger level environment scattered in the five acts. For example, you will find the Nest in the town of Lut Gholein, and not in Tristram. I can't limit Back to Hellfire to one act. Even if I could, I wouldn't do it, I love variation. I think this brings more fun in the gameplay.
So if you liked Diablo and Hellfire, if you love to get scared from monsters and advance slowly through the dark gothic levels - this mod is for you. Hope you will enjoy playing it at least as much as I did while creating it.

how to reduce difficulty?
an Assertion Error with the D2Se Version causing crashing from some particular monsters has been patched by SheX. Discord below , download link can be found in d2mods database . enjoy!
Discord.gg
there's a d2se compatible version available here on modb, in case anyone wants to play. also, runewords are made from English dictionary words, based on the runes you get. for example, RA and RE runes make word RARE, that makes a +magic find item for ex. can be put in any base item.
Can anyone continue to update Back to hellfire mode?
Back here one last time, In-case you guy were have anymore trouble finding the old patches needed for mods YOUR WELCOME ----> www.versionchanger.chaosmarc.de/
and if that's not enough the final solution is download something called D2SE 2.2 and this Chaosmarc.de version of the mod someone fixed to work with it, boots instantly if do it right :D
With win 10 64Bit stopping a lot of the old Diablo, Now could be the time to Necro this Mod for prosperities sake.
And the disgrace that is Diablo 3.
Smilla Enlarger
Levels work on each graphic. Changing light/shadows in sprites.
also after the calamity that was diablo 2 and not upgrading the looks of the mercs for armour. There is a good trick available, with the potential to use a caravan instead of a chest for stash, With ships available to be used as Stash also, warbands instead of single mercs to combat the necromancers insanity...
It would be a good time for this to revive.
Ive got Skins to do for SC2
