Diablo 1 mod - High framerate support
🕑 Added 2021-01-17 23:15:25 +0000 UTCHere's something different. DevilutionX is a fan-made, extremely faithful recreation of the Diablo 1 source code. I randomly stumbled upon it and I thought it would be fun to mess around with it. It's pretty rare I mod games which are open source, so it's pretty refreshing compared to how I typically mod (which involves a lot of painful and slow reverse engineering of formats and digging through compiled code). Sure would be nice if more developers released SDKs or made their code open source after some years.
I ended up doing this with the source code which is adding in support for higher framerates (Diablo 1 is locked to 20fps by default, oof!). If anyone owns Diablo 1 (it's available on gog.com) and wants to try this, then here are instructions:
- Download and install DevilutionX: https://github.com/diasurgical/devilutionX/releases/tag/1.1.0
- Extract my mod into the same location and run devilutionx-fluffymod.exe: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/449840053049360388/800492112410837053/DevilutionX-FluffyMod.zip
By the way, here's the repo I'm using for implementing changes to DevilutionX: https://github.com/FluffyQuack/devilutionX/tree/HighFramerateGameplay
I also made a reddit post about this: https://old.reddit.com/r/Diablo/comments/kzgxes/high_framerate_mod_for_diablo_1_based_on/
I'm not sure how much I'll do with Diablo 1, but we'll see. It was fun to make this at least.
