Before editing, you must find where your character files are stored. The location varies significantly by version: Save File Path C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG Galaxy\Games\Diablo\dx\ DevilutionX C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Roaming\diasurgical\devilution\ Classic (v1.09) Found directly in the main install directory. Classic (Pre-1.09) Often hidden in the Windows folder as dlinfo_x.drv . Filenames: Single Player : single_0.sv , single_1.sv , etc. Hellfire Expansion : single_0.hsv Multiplayer : multi_0.sv 3.
