Hello
I can't find a Forum that explains it. But can someone reply with Instruction on how to Connect to Multiplayer.
-With Instructions on how to find you IP (to give to other people)
-How to open certain Ports (whatever ports they may be)
-And anything else that i don't know about that is required for people to join.

Thanks in Advance

1. www.ipchicken.com

2. http://findports.com/document.php?tag=baldurs-gate - Ports for the game. Make sure you add them to your router/firewall if you have one for playing the game. That includes the windows firewall. Add 47630 port as well. All TCP/UDP.

3. I don't know what else you don't know about joining others. Type in IP address, click join.

Wowo

Portforward.com for instructions on how to forward ports by router

Thanks for the Information guys
I'm assuming that opening ports on the Windows Firewall wont work?

majinsnake

You can try that.


I don't use windows firewall. If you still can't run the game, you need to open ports through the firewall.

Hi I don't have problems with forwarding ports, but noone in my social circle is a fan of this game so don't really have anyone to share it with. Does anyone know when it will be made easier to find ppl to play with and when it will be possible to do so? (like a chat lobby or something and the possibility to create games in it?)
