Multiplayer Save Issues?

I played a LAN game with a friend. We both started new characters. He hosted the game. I got my character up to Fighter/Adept/Paladin/Valkyerie. We completed up to the placing the horn in the artifacts chamber. He saved often, and after we were done, I was able to calll up my character from the last saved multiplayer list and start a new single player game of my own with that character. I got to Fargrove, did all the quests, except the Custard Mansion which I cannot re-enter. However, now, I cannot leave Fargrove. I have done everything necessary to leave, and Lord Davamor tells me to go to Arandale, but the guards will not let me leave via either exit.

Additionally, even though I have the three crystal quest from the Monastary, I now dont have the crystals. When I left the LAN game, all the keys were taken.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm assuming you started a new character from the LAN screen, then after saving once you start in the area at campfire in starting area, starting with that character in singleplayer. Went through the sewers and theater to Fargrove. Did everything and can't get out the west gate???

Check Inentory/Keys section. You should automatically have a moonstone. Now also, all moonbridges are activated and you can go anywhere.

Your assumptions are correct. Unfortunately, though I do have a moonstone and did activate the moonbridge in Fargrove, that is the only moonbridge activated, so I cannot use the moonbridges to go anywhere.

Additionally, I solved the problem of leaving the city by using the 1.53 character editor to add Lord Davamore's orders to my letters. Now I can get out. Unfortunately, the editor seems to have deleated several items in my inventory, including trinkes, arcane books, weapons, armor and shields. Guess the editor still has bugs.

Starting a new single character from lan will dump some items because you ARE starting over, so to speak. But losing some items by using the editor? That's a new one.

In the regular lan game, were you or your partner the one who carried the moonstone, and you did activate all moonbridges in the regular lan game. Strange indeed. I can start a new single player from lan, even though I've never played lan, bu utilizing my last single play character. I will still have tons of stuff and all the moonbridges are open.

What the character editor seems to have failed to do is to load all the inventory items from my saved character file when I loaded that file into the editor. Therefore, when I saved the character in the editor, those items were missing. I don't know why the editor did not read the items in the saved game file. I had to go back in the editor and add all the missing items, including the orders and the crystals again.
