BTW - most of the following post, I stole from
Kylotan at the bioware forums, because he described it so well [img]smile.gif[/img]
Ok, both sides are using the patch 'bg114315.exe', and the DirectX patch. The Baldurdash text update and the baldurdash bugfixes are also present. I'm hosting a game on dialup, and the other side is also on dialup. Both of us have DirectX 8 installed.
Basically, the problem is that every so often, especially after area transitions or during fights, the other player seems to get partially disconnected. By this, I mean that she can send chat messages which I see, but she does not receive mine. Additionally, she does not see me moving my characters. And when she attempts to interact with objects such as doors or locks, she sees no response. In other words, from her side, there is no apparent activity from me/the server no matter what I do. She usually has to quit the game and rejoin.
Are there any suggestions as to what this could be? Or how to fix, alleviate, or work around it?
