Cant invite friends any longer
Hello,I'm having a issue with multilayer and was speaking out to see if anyone has the same issues or had a idea to resolve it. I was able to join and invite my buddy to my game and we played for hours with some crashing and issues but after my last CTD I restarted the game and haven't been able to rejoin my buddy to my game, in fact I cannot add anyone to my game at all no matter what setting but I have been able to join other games, nothing changed on my firewall or did anything else related, went from playing with normal Alpha hiccup issues, to crashing to not being able to invite anyone anymore. Here are the current actions I have taken to attempt to resolve my issue.

Restarted the computer
opened all ports for Steam
Opened ports for Divinity
Opened myself to the DMZ
Started a new game
Reinstalled Divinity and cleaned it out completely and started a new game
Reinstalled Steam and all my games
Reset the Router
Turned off all firewalls
(( made sure it was allow invites and allowing joining)) *tried all settings*

There is no reason for it just to stop me from inviting people, my buddy can invite me and I can join him no problem but I can no longer invite anyone since the crash, I'm out of ideas.

Every time I crash I fill out a crash report and allow it to send data.

Are you shutting down all non-essential programs (especially anti-virus) before starting the game? I assume so, given everything else you've tried...

If tomorrow's update doesn't help, email supportdos@larian.com, with a description of the problem and the report.zip file generated by the D:OS support tool[www.larian.com].

Same thing just happened to me. While hosting co-op the game froze on load screen, alt-f4'd, restarted, now I can't host anymore.

I can switch the gem to yellow, blue or green, but my 'invite player' button on the escape menu is grayed out, and the one on the choose connection screen does nothing. My friend can't join me through steam friends as join game is grayed out, but I can join him just fine.

I tried all the stuff you tried. Tried verifying game cache, no files needed to be downloaded. I also tried inviting my friend while in his game (this is the only place I can invite from... other player's games), then starting a new multiplayer game, then having him accept the invite from main menu after it loads up. It tells him game not found. \o/

I uninstalled Divinity: os + steam including documents/larian/divinity original sin folder. Then, I manually deleted everything related to larian, steam, valve, eocapp, and supporttool in regedit + left over folders. Redownloaded everything and... still can't host co-op, but can join fine... until friend inevitably crashes and this happens to him, then what? :|

Short of a full on reformat I don't know what to do at this point. Did you guys ever figure anything out? Is it possible that steam's matchmaking or divinity still sees someone is connected to me since they didn't disconnect properly, thus causing the functionality of inviting players to the game to be disabled? (2/2 players, can't invite more type of thing..)

I guess I'll wait for this patch that's coming in a few days and hope for the best...

Latest patch fixed more connectivity problems. Hopefully your issues will be gone now.
