    1. I have never been to a lan before. What do you need to connect the computers too each other?

    2. What would be a fun, good, ultimate party?

    3. Is it possible to LAN BGII with 6 players?

    4. Does everyone have to have all the add-ons and mods, or only the host?

    [​IMG] 1. A cable to connect the computers, or both computers being on a LAN.

    2. Might as well ask what my favourite food is, there's a very good bet it won't match your taste.

    3. Yes, I believe so.

    4. Everyone.

    Good, good. We will be around 6 people, each controlling one character.

    I just hope I get my new computer in time...

    Obviously, only one of you will be the main character, so I'm sure the game ends if the first character dies.

    Not only does everyone need all of the mods, but they all have be be installed in the same order and no computer may have any extras.

    The best way to do it is to have one player grab all the mods that you want, install them on that computer and then copy the override folder, chitin.key, and dialog.tlk to all of the other computers in the game.
