What mods do you guys use?

[Proxy]

just wondering how many people mod the game. If theres one mod i'd recommend it faces of Faerun. New much better looking faces for all standard body type humanoids.

i mean this is just the base game right? big expansions have yet to come.

Larian doesn't make expansions or DLC. Ever.

maybe with this success they will? why let a great source of revenue die and waste money making another game?

cuz they dont care about money as much as they do about being creative and making new projects.

Mostly ones for new character creation tools and the ability to change hair after the game starts. I don't want any mods that impact the balance of it because I like the early game challenge and late game leveling rewards, I don't really want to tamper too much with that which is really a good sign I think. To me it means that the gameplay loop is rewarding and fun on it's own merits without having to be completely reworked to personal tastes.

In case anyone want to try for themselves here my basic BG3 Mod tutorial:

Baseline moding is very simple. I also recommend using notepad++ when doing this.
Download the extractor tool from; https://github.com/Norbyte/lslib/releases
Current version is Release ExportTool-v1.18.1

For this example copy the file Shared.PAK out of the BG3\Data folder to your My Documents folder.
Now using the extract tool you just downloaded run ConverterApp.exe and select the [PAK / LSV] Tab.
In the Input line select the Shared.PAK file you put in your My Documents Folder.
In the Output file path select your My Documents folder as well.
This will create two folders, one Public and one Mods folder.
For this leason you will only need items in the public folder.
In that folder navigate down to the [Public\Shared\Stats\Generated] and you will find a file called Equipment.txt
Note the folder structure it is under. Recreate that folder structure in you game folder; BG3\data folder.
Like this: BG3\data\Public\Shared\Stats\Generated. The folder will not exist so you will need to make them.
Next copy only the Equipment.txt file over to that location.
This file will now override the same file from the Shared.Pak file.
You can now edit that file and add or remove starting equipment.

What to add. Well everything you are looking for is in the Public\Shared\Stats\Generated\Data folder from the extracted files.
You will find Weapons.txt, Armor.txt, and other Items in that folder.
Just use the entry name as like the example below, under the class starting gear you want to change, then save the Equipment.txt file.

You have now performed your file BG3 game mod.

Example"
new equipment "EQP_CC_Fighter"
add initialweaponset "Melee"
add equipmentgroup
add equipment entry "WPN_Greatsword"
add equipmentgroup
add equipment entry "WPN_HandCrossbow"

If you break it now worries, just delete the file or the whole public folder and it will no longer affect your game.

Have fun.

That's not how Larian operates, It's in the core ethos of the company. Aside from early adopter/digital deluxe packs, they don't believe in DLC. At most, after a year's time, they'll release a major revamp that might contain new content, but Larian releasing DLC is as unlikely as EA admitting lootboxes are predatory.

At the moment none because they're updating stuff and I hate modfixing, but once that's chilled out I will be using mods mainly for face, hair, maybe clothes

If I get bored I'll do the 5E spells and stuff like that

5espells and level curve look nice - any mod to re balance for these though? Game will surely be a cakewalk if we are level 20 in BG
