Multiplayer Problems (Merged)

Hey everyone, I hope all is well. I am new here to the forums and have a question. I am currently playing the regular Dungeon Lords v 1.4 on LAN with a friend and we are in a bind. I did send a message to Dreamwatchers Tech support but haven't received a response back yet. We are at the part after the horn quest. We got the boon already from placing Galdryn's horn in Talendor and when we try to go back to discuss with Emmindor for the 2nd time the elevator is broken. We cannot go up to talk with him. I did read that if you speak with his assistant and then try to leave that the elevator will become active. So I did that and the elevator worked. We went up to talk with Emmindor and he continuously asks to see the horn and its like we never completed the quest of Galdryn's horn. Then after talking with him we are stuck up in the room with Emmindor and cant leave. After a short period of time Emmindor asks to tell him about our journey to Talendor, so I speak with him again. Same thing happens that he asks to see the horn again and the process starts all over. Has anyone else ran into this?

On a side note we have already talked with Lord Graemare and we have the quest to find his son. Each time we goto Fargrove the guard says that it is closed by Capt Ottaka. No matter what we have done thus far it has not worked. Any suggestions? Thanks for any help in advance.

The whole Captain Okatta thing is tied into Emmindor. You will only be able to fight the guards just outside Fargrove after bringing the horn to Talindor and then going back to speak to Emmindor about what Galdryn says.

Since you have already done this and can't progress...I am not sure what to suggest. I have been lucky, I have not run into any real problems at all playing mulitplayer--outside of some lag between the two computers causing a bit of a time delay in game.It is my understanding that the game does work better in single player.

Again, not sure what to suggest. Have you tried loading a previous save, and going through the process again?

Thanks for the input. We decided to start the game over with the current characters we have. We were not really that far into the game so not really a big deal. I have a theory on what broke the quest. We talked with Graemare before we went back to talk with Emmindor a 2nd time. I didn't realize that we had to talk with Emmindor again until after the fact and our saves were all right after we talked with Graemare so there was no turning back after that. One thing I did happen to notice was that when I would complete a quest and it disappeared from my log, it still remained on my friends log that it was never completed. I don't think one has to do with another, but there is still alot of bugs in the game system that need ironing out. Thanks for all your input though, we'll see how this turns out this time.

Has anyone found a fix for this problem? we are having the exact same problem. I really don't want to start over again. So the game is pretty much a bust for us because we can't get past this spot.

i havent tried mp yet but mabye if only one of you talket to emmindor and the other stayed outside the tower the game may only be recognizing one of you as the quest completor and is actually asking the other if he/she has the horn

Thanks. We can't go into the tower unless both of us go. We've tried just one of us going up the elevator, then both of us. Basically, we can't get down the elevator at all. He acts like we have the horn on us, but we don't.

From my experience reading these forums, a lot of stuff just breaks if you try to play the game in multiplayer, and I don't think there's a fix.

Hi,

I am currently playing multiplayer with my dad. And we got given the Galdrys horn quest to take it to talandor and place it in the chambers of spirits. Once you have done that go back to emmidor and speak to him about the relic/s.
When we go back to emmidors tower and go to speak to him he says no diffrent than before.
He asks if you have the horn, Said yes
He asks can he examine it, said yes
Then goes on about the horn, etc

According to my friend who has played it on singleplayer emmindor is supposed to tell us about the relics and that he has an ally in the forgotten lands and we are to meet him/her there. But nothing of the sort is said.

Can any one help as we have been in the same predicament for 2 days now and not got any further with speaking to him.

Thanks
