The DLL files that are not found are part of the game. If the DLL files appear in the "Diablo II" folder, you can try to start the game with:

Code: Select all

cd "${HOME}/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Diablo II"
wine "Diablo II.exe"

If that works, try launching Diablo with:

Code: Select all

cd ~
wine start /unix "/home/user/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Diablo II/Diablo II.exe"

If that also works, then you can edit the .desktop file:

Code: Select all

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Diablo II - Lord of Destruction
Exec=wine start /unix "/home/user/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Diablo II/Diablo II.exe"
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
Icon=E1F5_Diablo II.0
StartupWMClass=diablo ii.exe
Terminal=true
