1) Hero Editor usually requires that you are using an English version of Windows. Make sure that you set the "regional and language settings" to English. In particular, make sure your computer is set for single byte letters, NOT multiple byte letters. (NOTE: I have never had this problem, but others tell me this solved the problem for them.)
2) Make sure the character files are V1.10 patch. Start a D2 V1.10 game, and load then save each character. This will convert each character and its items to V1.10 format.
BTW, the newest version of Hero Editor is V0.82. The only bug that I am presently aware of with this version is the code to prevent over socketing (i.e. more than 7 sockets filled) seems to not be working. So, don't fill more than 7 sockets, or your character file WILL be corrupted.
May I know how to change my computer settings to single btye letters instead of multiple byte letters?
Thanks
