Nezeramontias is primarily a game enhancement mod. Search around the Diablo 2 © modding community, and you'll find mods of various types. Some like to alter the core of the gameplay while others offer mostly cosmetic changes. But some mods offer a bit of everything, and that's what I strive for with the Nezeramontias mod. Much of the game will remain familiar; this mod makes no changes to the story, any of its characters, or any of the dialogue. Furthermore, all current monsters items, skills, and most everything else from the base game are still here (though many with modifications). Instead, what you'll largely find are a number of additions to the existing game. Some major changes like a restructuring of the skill system will force you to rethink how you go about building characters, new equipment, new items, new skills, new inventory images, a larger character stash, many new cube recipes, new monsters, expanded levels, a revamped money system (i.e. it's actually useful ;-)

This mod only works with version 1.10 of the expansion. If you try it with 1.11, you will experience
problems, and the game will crash when you attempt to enter Act 5.
Language: Nezeramontias is written for the English version of Diablo 2. If you're running
Diablo 2 in a different language and install this mod, your game will play in English.
Note about installing Nezeramontias:
If you're using a mod manager, you should follow the instructions included with that application for adding
and later removing Nezeramontias. In such a case, you probably won't need the install and uninstall files
included with this download, so you can skip the 'Mod Installation' section below. The file nez109.mpq
contains all the additions/changes made in Nezeramontias.
************************************** Installation *******************************************
Install Note: If you currently have a previous version of Nezeramontias installed, it's best to
uninstall that version before installing the new one.
Simply unzip the file nez109.mpq into your Diablo 2 game folder.
Next, find the file Patch_D2.mpq. Rename it or move it to a backup folder. Then rename
nez109.mpq to Patch_D2.mpq. And you're good to go :)
******************************************************
***************************** Additional files included in the download *********************************
The file new uniques.txt contains a list of all the added uniques in the mod. It's a semi-spoiler,
so don't look at it if you don't want to know about them. It lists the name of the unique,
what type of item it is, its item level and the level required to equip it.
If the name and the type are the same, the item is unique only and is created with the cube.
There is also a new sets.txt which lists all set items.
Hirelingskills.txt lists the skills of each hireling and what level they aquire their skills
Note about additional mod files: The other files that come with this mod (newuniques.txt,
cube recipes.txt, etc.) are easier to read if you open them in a spreadsheet editor such as
MS Works Spreadsheet, Excel, or the D2Excel editor.
