Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - Suggestions and Feedback Can we still connect to ourselves?

Well simple, prior to the "final" version of the game, I could host the game, then start 3 more instance of the game and connect to myself during character creation.
Therefor, I could in this way chose all 4 characters of mine, what they would be looking like, talents, skills etc.... as I don't like the "default" skills...

Right now, i'm having some sort of difficulty doing that...
directconnect would just stay there and do nothing, and multiplayer, I don't see my own game from another instance... and I end up killing the game and steam

Nevermind, I found it

It was because I was running another version of the game......launched the wrong executable file

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Divinity Original Sin 2\Classic\EoCApp.exe

instead of

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Divinity Original Sin 2\DefEd\bin\EoCApp.exe
