Ok, so my friends and I wanna play Baldur’s Gate 3 together. Now, almost all of us bought the game via Steam, and one friend acquired the game in a ‘non-standard’ way. How do we make multiplayer work?
Assuming it’s GoG just play… verify your installer though
Use zerotier/tailscale to set up a VPN/VLAN between your desktops with almost no effort (think modern day hamachi)
Absolutely not. Tailscale is witchcraft.
Fake a LAN connection? I’ve played with someone using an unusual acquisition method and bg3 literally just let it happen over lan, 0 fucks given and no work around. That was about a year ago, though.
I know my cousin and his friends used hamachi back in the day, if setting up your own vpn network is too much work that might be a solution.
Tailscale or Zerotier are the current best options I think.
Have you tried just giving the friend MP code and them joining through it? Worked for me without any zerotier, so it could be repack dependent. I used the GOG version.
