    Sorvo and I were trying to start a multiplayer game of BG1. We both have ToSC installed and the DirectX patch too. However, we have different language versions, is this what sucks?

    It didn't even freeze, we were getting 'unable to connect' notices each time trying.

    I assume you´re not on a LAN since you have different languages, so your network settings is probably right. So if it isn´t the language that screws things up the only thing I can think of other than that would be firewalls. Be sure that you´ve allowed baldur.exe to go through the firewall you´re using, if you are that is. And also be sure to turn off the internal firewall if you have windows XP.


    And also make sure that you have the same verision of the game. Get the latest patch if you´re not sure.
