If the patcher doesn't work it looks like u have 1.14 installed. If u have 1.12 and the patcher doesn't work, try to search for 'Diablo 2 LOD 1.13c Patch' (or 1.13d, both work). Oh great, thanks again! I've extracted the contents of the ultimativexvi.1.zip in a folder called Median in the Mods folder of the Diablo II directory. Diablo 2: Genesis 2.0+ Modification created by BishoYo. Everything is fine, don't worry about what's in the log. It was a long time ago, and I don't remember why the shared stash was turned off, but for sure with good reason.
Patch 1.13 was released on 23 March 2010, and also included a ladder reset. The most prominent change is the addition of the respec feature.
