ToB installed. Game play is rather tedious, and cumbersome, but most of that would easily be solved by multiplayer [AI is rather dumb, and micro managing every character in an 8 person party is a little annoying]. So lets get crackin on this multiplayer thing. I got my beserker set up nice and strong :D

so...you're a +2 GMT ? [Norway]

 

You're a good 6 hours ahead of me. It's 4:30pm to you as of this post, 10:30am for me. That makes it interesting.

Well, it seems as if Friday is most convenient to the group as a whole, but working around timezones might be awkward.

 

I'm fine on a friday from 4:00 PM onwards, basically. Although a 20 minutes break may be needed to eat around 6:30-7:00.

No, GMT +1, though my new school starts an hour earlier and ends an hour later than my previous one. I don't think there's too much wrong with it that way other than walking to school at 7 in the winter... and I'm too lazy to put on a jacket (although my legs are actually what's freezing).

I'm 6 hours ahead of until it's daylight saving time you and it doesn't make it hard in the weekends, I'm up almost around the clock.

Hold up. The only person that had a problem with Rpg's suggestion of Monday/Wednesday was you, and that was only because of a mixup with timezones.

Really?

 

Clearly I'm not paying much attention then.

 

But 10:30 on a monday/wednesday isn't good for me, since I usually sleep from 12:00 onwards and close the computer down at 11:30.

i also wouldn't play past midnight tbh

Alright, I suppose we could do Friday. Say, start at 4 pm EST?

 

And this is what I've gathered everyone is going with in classes:

Party lead (me): Fighter/Thief Dual Class [so we have thief covered]

Rpg: Berserker (Fighter)

Dungeonal: Ranger?

Ross: Mage

Retech: ?

Then idk who the 6th person is.

Friday 4pm EST = 4pm (-5 GMT) ?

 

If so, sounds great

Fighter/Mage.

 

My CPU wont be ready by tommorow, so I'll play on my laptop for now. Don't be surprised if I lag though.

 

8:00 PM GMT, right? That sounds okay, assuming 3 hour session or so.

2Xeo5.png

Is there a reason why the program crashes when it tries to find a server on 65.92.110.100?

My guess is that the server doesn't exist until Dusty says so, but i want to make sure I'm all good on my end before trying to connect to everyone. I can get to the multiplayer screen, join screen, import and all that menagerie, but when I type an IP server to join, it gives me a "please wait" notice, then windows 7 decides it needed to regurgitate and closes my game.

 

Any idea why this happens?

Yea the server doesn't exist until I create the game. But actually Dungeonal is going to be hosting, since we could never get a game to work when I hosted but his worked fine.

 

Try running it in windowed mode.

 

Friday 4pm EST = 4pm (-5 GMT) ?

 

If so, sounds great

EST is -4 GMT. So it would be 3pm for you, that alright?

 

 

-----

 

Okay, before we start, this is what needs to be done by everyone:

 

-Install BG2: Shadows of Amn

-Install BG2: Throne of Bhaal

-Patch BG2: SoA/ToB w/ patch 26498 - http://www.bioware.com/games/throne_bhaal/support/patches/

-Forward your ports so that you can connect - http://www.wikihow.com/Play-Baldur%27s-Gate-2-Multiplayer-over-the-Internet

-Set it to run in windowed mode (under the configure tab when you click to run the exe)

 

That's it. Then if you want more portraits for characters you can download this and then stick it in the 'portraits' folder in your BG2 directory (you might need to create the folder, idk).

 

If anyone is using a custom portrait then all players need to have it in their portrait folder or else it shows up as a blank silhouette. Or if you don't want them all and just want to see my sexy portrait then save these two files:

YY6NW.png

y1SLF.png

as Rogu07_L.bmp

and Rogu07_S.bmp

 

And stick them in the portrait folder.

 

(Let everyone know what custom portrait you're using and its file name so that we can add it to our portraits folders and see it in-game)

Sounds like the steps we needed to use maptool.

 

Okay, it's all done.

2Xeo5.png

alright, dungeonal, could you post the IP address and whatever we need to know to get in the game?

 

 

EDIT:

 

I have a Belkin router, and I have no idea which of the 70 options it is on portforeward.com, and I'm not even 100% I need to. Is there a manuel way to do it through CMD? The website suggests there is, but when you click on how to do it, it just brings you to a book ad on how to use cmdprompt.

 

Anyone want to give me a list of commands to put through so i can foreward my port? [if i even need to...it doesn't seem like its really nesesary to begin with]

Actually I think you should take me off, because I just loaded up on classes for school so I don't think I'll have any set time to play computer anymore, especially on the weekends (which is strange).

i can't do 3pm, don't get home from 6th form until 3:40

 

will give ip when we're about to play, no sense in giving it before then as the server doesn't exist until I host it
