Multiplayer Problem/Question!!!

Chronicler · Post by **Chronicler** » Fri Dec 22, 2000 1:08 pm

Help! I started a multiplayer game and while playing a fighter as my main character I accepted Nalia's offer to run her keep. However, once I did that and I tried to leave I could not get the drawbridge to lower using the switch at the top of the tower. I left by going through the secret entrance that you use to get inside originally. Now I cannot get back inside the keep either through the main gate or through the secret entrance. I have the keep key and it makes no difference. Any suggestions?

btw: I finished the single player game so fast and left so many sub-quests unfinished that I have been going back and completing all the sub-quests I can in multi-player. It has been a real blast. I have since changed my main character to a Cavalier since finding Carsomyr. That sword kicks serious butt.

Sorry that I can't answer you, but I just want to - friendly - point out a policy. It is not a good thing to post a topic more than once - people might get annoyed. You posted this thing already, so I guess you simply wanted to put it 'back on top', right? If that was the case, you could simply have written a message in your previous message, saying you still have the problem, etc ...

Anyway, as for your actual problem, while I don't know what went wrong, you mean to say the secret door is no longer there?? Even after more careful inspection??

Actually I reposted it because I didn't use the right subject or icon in my original post. The secrect entrance is there but it will not let me enter nor does it actually show a door symbol for the mouse cursor when I move my mouse over the area. Strange, I have never seen this happen before.

You know, that's weird. I have finished the Stronghold as well, and after clearing it out for the first time (wiping out those Trolls), the secret door was indeed closed. But I could detect it, like before, and open it again, to enter.

Perhaps with me a flag was set that I could enter the keep at my will, and that for you that flag is missing ... preventing you from entering in whatever way.

Now I know it is possible to set flags and such using the CLUAConsole, but I can't begin to even start having an idea as to what it would be. Does anybody know?

Otherwise, I guess you have to either reload a game PRIOR to entering the keep the first time (which might be a pain) or settle for not being able to enter anymore (might also be a pain).

Everytime i went in the castle the keep gate would shut.But it would always open at the top when i came back out.And the secret door was not possible to go through in my case.

I went to the top of the gate and tried opening the gate before I left the last time but every time I hit the switch the gate would open then immediately close. Thats why I left through the secret entrance. It didn't happen the first time I played single player. Everything worked fine at that point.

Positive about that. I have even tried switching back to my original fighter character (multiplayer) that I accepted the keep with and it does the same thing.
