I play solo multiplayer all the time tell your friend to go back to their origanal game that they imported from.
check the characters inventory then export that character
then start the game with only "ONE" character he will have no
inventory then save game.restart same game import same character into the saved game Now your main character will have a twin with all his inventory. At this
time import any other charcters they want in the game. Now transfer inventory to your main character from your twin then save game.
Then delete stripped twin.The rest of team will then have all there inventory.
This works every time,remember when ever you start a game your players are all
just rookies and you have tou get past the opening in order to get inventory
items!This goes for all Baldure's gate games
Remember Start game with only ONE character then Import the rest
HAVE FUN
