Multiplayer, Imports.

Khyron

Tried playing with a friend. We encountered the following: Importing any kind of char from any source does not work. We swapped around all import restrictions, tried different hosts, import from save and file. We even tried importing newly made chars from the char-generator in the MP screen.

No matter what we did, we got stuck at the "Skills" button on the char creation screen.

I've seen similar reports, but i can confirm that for some of us at least, importing ANY char under ANY circumstance is NOT possible.. Which sort of renders multiplayer useless for me at least.. Good thing we have Spellhold studios and their big world project.

i had this too but you can scroll down on the premade character selection screen (past create character) instead of clicking import and your dudes will be there, click on them then hit play and it puts them into a slot, easy.

.. I dont think we understand each other, because that made no sense at all.. :S

Im talking about the screen where you can select Abdel, and other pre-made characters. BEFORE ever selecting import and just after clicking create. NOW has all the characters you have pre-made or exported. The screen LOOKS no different but use your wheel mouse and scroll down and your characters will be there to select. you just have to have some faith. This is how it was for me and i just dealt with the same exact issue.

Here, step by step:
-click multiplayer/create game

-on character arbitration screen click create in open slot

- This will open character generation screen with pre-mades and "create character" at bottom. THIS IS WHERE YOU SIMPLY SCROLL DOWN PAST PRE_MADE NAMES UP TOP. till you get to the guys you have made and exported previously.

-Click on the character you want to import and hit play button on right. that character is now put into that empty multiplayer slot. Repeat for as many as you like.

Hopefully you get it now as this is a whole lot of detail to tell you one little thing. scroll down at pre-made character screen. Good luck.

Here in order to make it is easy as possibly possible... pictures...

This is the important screen, DO NOT click create character then import as in vanilla bg


You need to now scroll down and the characters you have made and exported previously will automatically be at the bottom of the list.
