glassJAw Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 (edited) Diablo 2 does a please INSERT INSTALL CD even though it's in there and Warcraft 3 doesn't respond to me inserting the disc.. the dvd drive works though, I played a dvd.

Jeezoflip Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 It shoulding work anyway because diablo 2 is a Os9 app. And os x cannot run os 9 apps Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41832-diablo-2-and-warcraft-3-wont-install/#findComment-299474 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiaboliK Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 you need the osx native installer found on blizzard's diablo 2 site. also on many torrent sites. and yes they do work. maybe better through wine but they do work.

glassJAw Posted February 11, 2007 Author Share Posted February 11, 2007 I am using the OSX installer. It just says Please Install the Disc.

DiaboliK Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 you have to have all the disk images mounted first then run installer. (that is if your disks are in .dmg format instead of real disks) mine were all on .dmg's so that my be my workaround.

glassJAw Posted February 11, 2007 Author Share Posted February 11, 2007 (edited) hmm, I just looked at my Diablo 2 cds and it doesn't say anything about Macs. Only says Windows 98/Me/2000.. This is the 1.0 Version disc, the first release. The cd doesn't mount, nor does my Warcraft 3 cds. How do I manually mount a cd? Nothing comes up on the desktop.

DiaboliK Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 pop the disk in then open up disk utility and it should pop up on the left then you select it then on the top left corner click mount. i have the same v.1 disks ive been playin ever since it came out but stopped playing ever since the v1.10b patches came around.

glassJAw Posted February 11, 2007 Author Share Posted February 11, 2007 Nothing happened when I put the disk in. When I installed a older cd-rom drive it detected a music cd I put in but did not take in the Diablo 2 cd nor the Warcraft 3... I have one more drive to try. Thanks so far.

DiaboliK Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 if all else fails go into windows and use MagicISO and make an iso image of your disks then put those iso's onto your mac side then use them instead of disks.

glassJAw Posted February 11, 2007 Author Share Posted February 11, 2007 Does OSX handle .ISO files? Or do I need to do some virtual ISO stuff?

DiaboliK Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 iso are treated just like .dmg files double click to mount. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41832-diablo-2-and-warcraft-3-wont-install/#findComment-299688 Share on other sites More sharing options...
glassJAw Posted February 11, 2007 Author Share Posted February 11, 2007 Thanks, Warcraft 3 works, but Diablo 2 doesn't read the mounted device and just says "Please insert Install Disc." At least one worked. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41832-diablo-2-and-warcraft-3-wont-install/#findComment-300297 Share on other sites More sharing options...
