How can I transfer items pre-1.07?

[Kooky Kutter]

Hello, I'm new to this forum. I recently decided to try delving through old patches using Cactus, and I'd like to be able to transfer items between characters in 1.00 (and later, 1.05b). But I don't have a system running Linux, which means I'm limited to the old 4.0.0 version of Cactus. As far as I can tell, that version doesn't come with Singling, and ATMA doesn't support versions earlier than 1.07. Is there any other way to transfer items? Or am I mistaken and there is a way to use Singling with 4.0.0? Cheers, and obligatory thanks to fearedbliss for making this tool

Hey @Kooky Kutter, Singling is part of the Cactus Bundle and it used to come with Cactus 4.0.0 but since Cactus 4.0.0 has been removed from the bundle, the application itself is the only thing distributed. You can download the latest Cactus Bundle and copy the Singling files from there. You'll need to install it using the old Cactus 4.0.0 architecture since Cactus 5.0.0 has a completely different architecture made/optimized for Linux. All of the Worldstones and files in the bundle can be used with Cactus 4.0.0, you just need to put them in the Platforms directory instead of the Core/Worldstones folder.

The old Cactus for Windows installation video can be found here.

Thanks for the quick reply! I just set this up and tested, and it works perfectly.

Note that if you transfer items from pre-1.07 to 1.10+ directly the items will change completely. I have a post about it here (and previous posts in the thread): https://www.purediablo.com/forums/threads/1-00-news-info-and-gossip.193508/page-23#post-2673343

So you can technically get +4 skill amulets, 20FCR rings, double stacked gold find affix boots, etc. Set and uniques also change according to some rules, like paladin skills become sorc skills and so on.

you have to stop by 1.07 to keep stats other patches will change stats for there patch but 1.07 keeps older stats.
items moved from classic no level to lod will get a level requirement. so if you want it no level keep it in classic up to 1.09. passed 1.09 think it vary hard are impossible to play... i guess a good challenge.

1.06 removes dupes so keep that in mind. ether have to keep items separated or just play 1.05 then move to 1.07.
