Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - Enhanced Edition Coop Mode loading issue

First of all
Awesome game :D. Like the 2cnd part.
But i have a massive problem atm.

First things first, engl. is not my native language, so pls forgive errors ;)

I'm playing with a friend and we are at 70 hours playtime or so and lvl 14... smthg like that
Both playing on PC and Steam, he hosts the game.

So.. he invites me to the game, game loads, i'm in the game... as it should do.
But. Both of my characters just have base skills (strength, dex ...). if the host controls them, the values are right but as soon as he give them to me there are only the base stats.
We have this issues a few days now.
The workaround routine was loading the game, joining the game, saving and reloading the new save.
But now it dosn't load anymore.
My game freezes and he get the message 'connection to...lost'.
Pretty annoying.. anyone an idea what could be the problem?
Steam check of both games was made but problem is still the same :(

Thanks for suggestions

Can you join in a new game, or older save, and then have your friend load the latest save from your current game?

Instead of saving and reloading, can you try just reloading the latest save?

If your friend sends you the save, can you load it? If so, does your friend have any problem joining?

good questions.. i will try.

but the initial joining isn't the problem.
the first time i join i 'could' play.
the problem is the wrong attributes of my characters.. i can't use my gear and such ..
but i will try :) ty
