What D2RMM is

D2RMM is a free, portable manager for Diablo II: Resurrected mods. It lets users enable or disable mods, change settings, and drag them into a different load order. When mods alter the same game files, D2RMM combines the changes and compiles them into a classic D2 MPQ-style mod; changing options requires reinstalling. Multiple independent game installations can have separate mod loadouts. A built-in mod source and Nexus Mods’ Mod Manager Download links support obtaining mods, while Nexus authentication provides additional functionality. Nexus Premium is required for collections and for downloading mod updates or selected versions. D2RMM attempts to warn about overwrite conflicts, including possible Diablo II update conflicts, and describes a sandbox for isolating mod execution. Authors can create JavaScript or TypeScript mods through its API, although data mods overwrite other edits to files they modify. Windows and Linux are supported; macOS support is experimental and limited to Apple Silicon.
