To create a custom party, click on MP game, and in set the connection mode to serial. then select create game and youŽll get a screen to add characters to your party, then select the whole party and start the game.

if your question is how to set up a MP to play online, then the method is exactly as above, though usually its made via TCP/IP. one of you has to create the game, the others will click on multiplayer, then select join game and type the IP of the host.

if you need further help, just ask http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

Okay...thanks for the initial description. Now where do I go from here? I've openned a multi-player game, created and imported a bunch of characters, and was successfully able to start a game. I quit pretty quickly afterwards, saving the game. I was able to find the game and make a few adjustments to the characters with Gatekeeper. Now, though, when I go to restart the game, it doesn't seem to be there or something. I get the usual sign-on screen, go to multiplayer, hit connect, then if I hit join game nothing happens. If I hit create game, and then load game there, nothing happens. what's going on? What am I doing wrong?

You need to move that multiplayer save to your singleplayer save folder. Here's how you do it:

Go to wherever BG is saved on your computer. (Probably C://Program Files/Baldur's Gate). Find the folder that says "mpsave." You need to cut and paste the save game you made from that folder to the one marked "save" in your BG folder. Now, when you start up BG, you can select Single Player and choose the save game from there. Hope this helps!
