BG3 (SteamDeck)Official Mods not working

[Dayze213]

When I enable mods that I downloaded for the official mod list I am not able to load my saved game unless I remove them. How do I enable mods for steam deck?

I play on Steamdeck too, have never used mods before, and haven't been able to figure out the new mod manager thing in bg3. I was really excited to try some of the cosmetics mods for more hairstyle and makeup options only for my existing games to not load unless I disabled the mods.

The only thing I could figure out was that I had to start a brand new game after installing the mods through mod manager on my steamdeck then I could load it.
However, after seeing another cosmetic mod I wanted to add in later on, I couldn't use it unless I started a brand new game again. I have no clue how to fix this and wonder if Steamdeck just isn't made for modding... like at all. All I can say though is if there's a specific mod you want to use, it looks like you have to install it first then create a new game with those mods enabled and they have to remain active at all times or that save won't load.
