Join multiplayer with your own character?

[765]

I seem to remember they added that? But I don't see it implemented or in the patch notes.
Did I misunderstand something?

You can do this. Use your main profile to start a multiplayer game. set for local lan match and friends only. it will give you a ID code for the match with option to copy. tab out.. make sure the larian launcher is closed, then go to *:\Steam\steamapps\common\Baldurs Gate 3\Launcher\ and run LariLauncher.exe. new game should start. Make a NEW profile. hit multiplayer. check local lan games and you should see your main profiles match. it will prompt for that code you copied when you created the original match. join the match and ready up. . tab out again close launcher .. rinse repeat till you have 4 chars. or what ever you desire. new profile needed for each. might need a stronger machine to run for instances of the game. once you are all ready and main launches game.. create each char. tabbing once each is done to do the next. when they are all done go back to main if it didnt launch when you finished last character creation. launch the game. you should see all four in the start of the ship. now you can close the three other games and main will be left with controlable custom character. save it. you can just setup the match for 2 players. this will allow two of the story npc to join. after the ship you can only have 4 chars.. player or npc. this worked before patch 7 and i have done it after patch 7. I suck at explaining this stuff. search on google for "bg3 multiple custom characters" to get more on this subject.

With custom chars you will sometime get them talking to each other and it is a bit confusing. ive used 4 custom characters and dialog is strange. used just 2 as well.

As some have said, you need to turn the graphics way down to open 4 instances of the game. Though you may not actually need to do that. You can actually build 2 unique characters, by going split screen. All you need to do to do this is have 2 controllers attached to your PC. I haven't tried this, but my assumption would be you can open 2 instances of the game, BOTH split screen, and then you would not need 4 instances of the game open, but 2.

Ok so from what I gather that just let's people who join play MY custom chars.

What I am trying to do is play my custom char when joining someone else online.

This feature doesn't exist, nor do I recall them mentioning any of the sort. Characters are stored in the host's PC, so it would be difficult to implement.

Excuse me? neverwinter nights stored character data locally too, that data can be transferred to the host prior to loading in, and saved in the paged file for data reference. honestly it wouldn't be that hard and would honor the original BG/Swordcoast series of games having the feature. while several of you may not see the fun in having a level 10 join a level 1, some people who are friends may very well still enjoy the game as such, not to mention it's more realistic then "everyone on nautiloid ship destined for mind flayer transformation was just starting out on their adventuring career. and as such are all level 1"

Honest huge L for the company on this one, just require the characters to be the same level as the host. Solves the whole you can play a character that's far ahead bs or too far behind.
It wouldn't even mess up their game as all characters gain experience and the pre-mades will never fall behind when they leave and go back to solo play.

It really is a stupid idea not to add this because i'm not joining a random multiplayer match to play as pre-made characters. I'll probably never do any of the characters story lines and have 0 interest in playing them. I'm sure alot of people feel this way.

Hell they can even make a hub for you to goto to meet other adventurers and meet new people with your self made.

Dont get me wrong, great game though.

Its not an L at all, its what they want the game to be.

It's a huge L (for lazy)! They sold an incomplete concept as Early Access in 2020 and now are reselling an incomplete game in 2023 that level caps at 12 (should be 20 for anyone not familiar with common DnD, which the game is based off) because "it's too hard to balance beyond 12".

Although, thanks to mods, I'm having more fun replaying the same acts over and over than level grinding in Diablo 4 right now.

Cannot WAIT until Larian just releases a developers toolkit to let us make our own realms. Even if it were a DLC.

Isn't this very easily solved by having a hireling and reset it's class by Witters? Take it to the mirror to change it appearance. All you miss are your weapons.
