Building from Source

Want to compile the program by yourself, grate! Simply follow the build instructions;

Multiplayer

• TCP/IP only requires the host to expose port 6112
• UDP/IP requires that all players expose port 6112

All games are encrypted and password protected.

Controller support

DevilutionX supports gamepad controls.

Default controller mappings (A/B/X/Y as in Nintendo layout, so the rightmost button is attack; A ○, B ×, X △, Y □):

• Left analog or D-Pad: move hero
• A: attack nearby enemies, talk to townspeople and merchants, pickup/place items in the inventory, OK while in main menu
• B: select spell, back while in menus
• X: pickup items, open nearby chests and doors, use item in the inventory
• Y: cast spell, delete character while in main menu
• L1: use health item from belt
• R1: use mana potion from belt
• L2: character sheet (alt: Start + L1 or ←)
• R2: inventory (alt: Start + L2 or →)
• Left analog click: toggle automap (alt: Start + ↓)
• Start + Select: game menu (alt: Start + ↑)
• Select + A/B/X/Y: Spell hotkeys
• Right analog: move automap or simulate mouse
• Right analog click: left mouse click (alt: Select + L1)
• Select + Right analog click: right mouse click (alt: Select + R1)
• Select + L2: quest log (alt: Start + Y)
• Select + R2: spell book (alt: Start + B)

For now, they can be re-mapped by changing SourceX/controls or by setting the SDL_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG environment variable (see SDL_GameControllerDB).

Mods

List of known mods based on DevilutionX

F.A.Q.

Wow, does this mean I can download and play Diablo for free now?

No, you'll need access to the data from the original game. If you don't have an original CD then you can buy Diablo from GoG.com. Alternately you can use spawn.mpq from the shareware version to play the shareware portion of the game.

What game changes does DevilutionX provide

DevilutionX's main focus is to make the game work on multiple platforms. An additional goal is to make the engine mod friendly. As such, there are no changes to gameplay, but we will be making some enhancments to the engine itself. For example, the engine now has upscaling, unlocked fps, controller support, and multiplayer via TCP.

For a full list of changes see our changelog.

Is 1080p supported?

Yes, the game will automatically adjust to your screen. This can be further adjusted in the game ini file.

What about Hellfire?

Yes, you can play both Hellfire, regular Diablo, or the shareware version all from the same installation of DevilutionX.

Does it work with Battle.net?

Battle.net is a service provided by Blizzard. We are not associated with them, so we have not worked on intergrating with their service.
