Diablo fans have developed a web browser port that allows users to play the original Diablo game on any internet-connected device.

While impressive, do yourself a favor and play with the quality mod “DevilutionX”, or alternatively “Tchernobog”, which is still getting updates.
Basically they iron out a lot of issues Diablo has due to its age and make it truly enjoyable.
I’ve been out of d1 for years. Is there a nice onboarding post to get up and running with something like tchernobog?
I would recommend DevilutionX for the moment, as Tchernobog is still rough around the edges and slightly harder to install (the first have some clear instructions and it’s rather straightforward).
Still if you want to play it, there’s a forum in Tchernobog’s page and from what I’ve seen there some YouTube’s guides are available.
I installed both using Lutris…
Preesh
Luxtorpedia has a quick installer for devilutionx
The real question is, does it support the item duplicating bug?
Not here. Not in town.
Dang LOL! Thanks for trying at least.
Whoosh…
“Not here.” and “Not in town.” are the voice lines that the character says when you try to attack/cast a spell in town…
Even so, do you actually understand the glitch and how it works?
If it’s not supported in the web browser port, that comment is a perfectly valid answer.
Yes, I know how it works. I played probably an aggregate of 20k hours into the Diablo franchise (I quit on Blizzard at this point though… such a shame what they’ve become). Vast majority of that time into d2.
You drop item you want to dupe on ground walk away a little bit, you pick up item from belt at same time that you pick up item from the ground. The pathing gives you time to move your mouse around. If you get the timings right the item dupes into the belt item. Original item is placed into your inventory and duped item stays in your “hand”. Bam 2 items. You can’t really patch this out. It’s an engine issue. There’s a delay in how it processes the action of picking up an item that uses the same buffer as “held” items. And since it’s using the original shareware mpq, or whatever mpq you provide it… and blizzard never fixed this bug in any official MPQ… you’re not going to see it patched unless you do something like run the fancy modern update versions. Blizzard’s “fix” was to track item ids and if multiple were on the ground at the same time, delete one.
Worked fine for me… Took base sorc, duped staff with the second mana potion you get.
