## Includes

- Cactus Platform (1.05b)
- Hellfire II: Lazarus (BETA 5)
- Hellfire II: Lazarus (7 Winter MMO Edition)

## Installation

- Extract the platform into your **`Platforms`** Directory.
- Add an entry to Cactus called **`Hellfire II - Lazarus (7 Winter)`**
  that launches **`Game.exe`** with the flags set to **`-direct -txt`**.

## Known Issues

- None

## Porting Fixes

- Removed **`Hellfire II.exe`**. This file isn't necessary and no file should
  modify the Save Path. The Save Path is fully controlled by Cactus.
- Extracted the custom music from the mod's **`D2Music.mpq`**. The **`D2Music.mpq`**
  is a Cactus Protected File and should not be modified. It seems that I cannot
  include these files in the **`Patch_D2.mpq`** since the game doesn't seem to
  allow overriding the music with that path. However, we can leave the files
  in their normal pre-packaged format (**`data/`**) and **`-direct -txt`**
  picks them up perfectly fine. Due to this easy workaround, the mod is now
  upgraded from **Gold** to **Platinum**.
