BATTLE FOR ELEMENTS
Version 1.80
[13 January 2024]
CAUTION! This is a new base version so you will have to start over from the scratch as your previous characters (more likely) will not be compatible with the new version due to basic changes.
Global changes:
- Both native resolutions were replaced with 1024x768 and 1280x768 (with D2ExpRes)
Launcher changes:
- Gem container fix. Gem containers appear in gamble now (made by lordvampir)
- When player disable gamble filter gamble window is filled with all permitted items now (made by lordvampir)
- Too many check marks fix - the game could crash when too many check marks were set in gamble filter (made by lordvampir)
- Now you can add some D2Mod plugins to the mod if you want. Just run the launcher for the first time and add plugins to new "plugins.ini" file. REMEMBER that you are acting at your own risk, as I cannot guarantee support for any plugin that is not included in the BFE (made by lordvampir)
- Some functionality was added by AlHazrad
Gameplay features:
- /PlayersX command now supports value up to 16. Monster HP % multipliers for this command: 0,50,100,150,200,250,300,350,450,600,800,1050,1350,1700,2100,3000. As you can see /Players 9-16 made especially for those, who think BFE is too easy.
Graphics features:
- 3dfx glide mode (with D2GL 1.3.1 modified by rnd2k)
- PlugY 14.03 HD version modified by rnd2k
- New icons for elemental plane portals by AlHazrad

- Additional requirements for some Multiverse Objects were removed.

- Bug with "Alkor potion and magic jewel" recipe was fixed.
- Bug with "Birth runescript" recipe was fixed.
- Due to bugged synergy formulae (where Bone Skills Efficiency takes part to) Teeth, Bone Spear and Bone Spirit skills had enormous damage (which was capped anyway). It was fixed and rebalanced.
- There are missing Elemental Books of Lore In act 2,3 and 5 towns in both versions 1.61 and 1.70. It is fixed now. Feel free travel to Elemental Planes.
- Some old plugins can cause DEP errors. It is fixed by rnd2k.
- Some spelling corrections by Amber.
Technical changes:
- AI range of most monsters was increased from 35 to 42 cells to reflect the change in resolution.

Knowledge Base:

Good job! Thanks for this amazing mod.
This mod looks good.
i've played it through all act1.
But it ends up being very boring, because there is no item drop and no exp lvl gain.
I got really tired of it.
It needs hard rework on enemy drop and exp.
I cant get it to go :/ every time i try to enter the game it says 84 was not found, anyone can help?
I remember when I first played this mod in the 2000's. Good times and was very hectic. Also felt like an improved vanilla and a suitable alternative to Median. Nice to see an update.
amazing mod problem is act 2 boss is way to hard and my necro had like 9 skeles i died a few times and now i got 6 which is really stupid.. i give this mod a 10/10 u should change act 1 town and make it really big and better lol... i love the mods tho u should grab median xl skills and add those in and add rebalanced damage to the skills. also i would like to see the rest of the towns modded and different like act 1 and make a few more places then i would be playing tcp/ip with my bro 24/7 playing THIS IS THE BEST MOD IVE EVER PLAYED PLEASE CONSIDER MY CHANGES and with the new skills when u first make an account and how it says BfE character u should add a skill change option I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THIS HAPPEN this mod has not been worked on for a while but please try my changes and make the game bigger! i understand it takes a LONG time to code :) thx mage u did an amazing job!
