Don't bother with Mplayer. Go for a direct IP link as this effectively cuts out the middle man. You need to establish the type of game you want (friendly, co-operative or mercenary.... keeping and selling what YOU find for yourself.) Time zones are important to establish between yourselves and you MUST ALL BE RUNNING THE SAME VERSION OF THE GAME...ie...PATCHED or UNPATCHED. Don't go with more than 3 human players or you will get bogged down with dialogue and have trouble incorporating quests. With 3 NPC's you can cover a good deal of the game without constantly going over old ground again and again.

One love, peace.
