Comparison of D2 Inventory Plugins

The Phrozen Keep hosts several UI plugins that expand the sizes of the player inventory, stash, and Horadric Cube. These can be dropped in and used in your Diablo 2 mod right away. Here's a rough comparison of several inventory plugins for D2 1.10+.

Mega Inventory Stash Cube (v1.10s & v1.10 Final)

This plugin increases the inventory, cube, and stash sizes while preserving the overall layout.

• Inventory: 10x6
• Cube: 10x8
• Stash: 10x10

How to solve ACCESS_VIOLATION error when running Diablo 2 with PlugY in Windows 10

Disclaimer: I tested this under the following setup:

• Windows 10 Enterprise x64 v1903
• Diablo 2 v1.13c
• PlugY v11.02

Windows 10 users may be stumped when attempting to run Diablo 2 with a Zipped version of PlugY. The game will refuse to run, showing this popup instead:

I got it working by copying the PlugY directory inside the ZIP file (the one containing files such as LocalizedStrings.ini) to the Diablo 2 installation directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Diablo II). What an arbitrary fix.

Diablo 2 마법 아이템 이름 번역하기

디아블로 2의 정식 한글화 버전은 거의 모든 단어를 음차로 번역하였다. 이를 개인적으로 다시 번역하면서 마법 아이템의 접두사(prefix)와 접미사(suffix) 때문에 문제를 겪었다.

ex) 크루얼 소드 오브 더 리치: 검(sword)에 '잔혹한(Cruel)' 접미사와 '거머리의(of the Leech)'이라는 접두사가 붙음

이 경우 이상적인 번역은 디아블로 3의 것처럼 "잔혹한 거머리의 검"이겠지만, 아이템 이름과 접사의 순서를 바꿀 수가 없기에 번역 방법을 두고 고민하였다.

1. 잔혹한 검 거머리의
2. 잔인한 검 (거머리의)
3. 잔인한 검 / 거머리의
4. 잔인한 검 거머리

원어의 의미를 살리면서 관형어를 번역하면 매끄럽게 번역하는 것이 불가능하다. 이 때문에 차라리 "잔혹한 검 (거머리 장식)"과 같은 식으로 접미사를 일종의 설명으로 치환하는 것도 고려하였다.

그런데...이 글(영문)에 따르면 string.tbl에서 MagicItemFormat이라는 키에 연결된 문자열을 찾으면 %0 %1 %2로 되어 있는데, 여기서 %0, %1, %2의 순서를 바꾸면 내가 원하는 대로 접두사, 접미사, 아이템 이름의 순서를 바꿀 수 있다고 한다. 이제 아이템 이름을 깔끔하게 번역할 수 있다. 만세!
