Although my work around will work you must remember the following.

Multi-player mode is separate from the single-player game. When starting a multiplayer game, you should be aware of a few key differences between the two ways of playing. In single player mode you are allowed up to eight party members at a time - In Multi-player you are only allowed one. The rest of the party is made up of people that you meet and play with online, or over a network. You can summon other characters as I explained however at the end of each session the only characters stats that are saved are from your primary character. You do loose the summoned characters, their skill levels and all the items in their inventory. I believe that one of the reasons that iryan created Legends of Utrae was so the multi-player Utraean Peninsula could be played single player and you would be able to hire 7 additional characters to assist you in your journey through the peninsula. I can really see no reason to play Legends of Utrae in multi player unless you and someone else wish to play together.

Now there is another way if you have eight computers on a local area network. You can install the game and the mods on each of the computers. Host the game on one computer and join the game on the other computers. I have done this with 4 computers when I had that many in the same room. Jumping between different mice, and keyboards to control the various players and watching all on the hosts monitor. Now I did need to label each keyboard and mouse for each character name. I never took the time to figure out if I could control the party from just one computer. I just wanted to see if I could do it.
