Does Dungeon Begone work in Multi-player mode?

    I tried creating a MP party last night and Jasper didn't appear as usual. I have Dungeon Begone and use it on almost every run through now. I was surprised to see it not working. Is there a fix or work-around that allows it to function in MP mode?

    You can start the game as a single player, then proceed outside the dungeon and then save, exit the game and copy the save folder in the "save" directory to the "mpsave" directory(it's named as 000007-something or alike), restart the game and load it using the multiplayer interface, make the characters, save and then exit the game, then you just move it back and load it in single player... erhm or not.

    Actually, I was going to suggest starting in mp, saving immediately, and copying to the save folder, but Jarno's idea might work.

    Splunge,
    I tried doing it in MP mode, saving as soon as my green icon appears after Imoen stops yapping at me. Moved to save file and then no Jasper upon loading in SP mode. :(

    Jarno,
    Many thanks! I will try that option tonight. My other charaters will lose out on the XP this way, but nothing a Keeper can't fix.

    You could console him in - not sure of the creature code. Look for it in your overwrite folder, probably named Jasper.

    Creature code would be found in the Creature Browser of Shadow Keeper.

    Already tried Jarno's solution, which worked like a charm. But for shits & giggles I tried SK and that worked as well. 2 easy work arounds, thanks guys!
