## Includes

- Cactus Platform (1.10)
- The Fury Within - Awakening (Alpha 2)

## Installation

- Extract the platform into your **`Platforms`** Directory.
- Add an entry to Cactus called **`The Fury Within - Awakening (Alpha 2)`** that
  launches **`Game.exe`**, with the flags set to **`-mod TFW -direct`**.

## Known Issues

- None

## Porting Fixes

- Replaced the provided **`Game.exe`** with the default Cactus one which
  provides No CD support.
- Removed **`dsound.dll`** and **`dsound.ini`**. Cactus already provides
  **DSOAL w/ OpenAL Soft** which has proper **Environmental Effects** support.
  **IndirectSound** doesn't (even if it lets you enable it, go to a cave and
  test it yourself). Furthermore, **`dsound.dll`** is a
  Cactus Protected File.
- Removed **`D2.LNG`** file. This is a Cactus Protected File. If this
  causes issues for this mod, then I'll need to drop the mod down to **Bronze**
  level since Cactus won't allow this due to a high likelihood that it will
  break your game installation. The mod seems to be working perfectly fine with
  the default **`D2.LNG`** file, from my testing during the porting process.
  Hopefully this stays that way.
- This mod comes with a **`D2gfx.dll`** that is already patched to load
  **`PlugY.dll`** and **`D2Mod.dll`**. I've replaced it with a freshly patched
  **`D2gfx.dll`** that only loads **`D2Mod.dll`**.
- Removed **`dsound.dll`** from **`D2mod.ini`**.
- Removed all addons that were most likely added by D2SE packagers:
	- Removed **SGD2FreeRes**.
	- Removed **D2GL**.
	- Removed **PlugY**.
- Cactus isn't responsible for loading external MPQs, and this mod contains a
  **`Patch_D2.mpq`**, and **`tfw-patch.mpq`** with unkwown files. Due to me not
  having those files, I can't easily repack them. So I've done the following
  to allow loading of the external MPQ:
	- Renamed **`D2Mod.ini`** to **`TFW.ini`**.
	- Renamed **`tfw-patch.mpq`** to **`TFW.mpq`**.
	
  This will allow **D2Mod** to load those extra files.
