The playable skeletons mod also requires that you have the Full Release Mod Fixer installed, did you download and install that too?

Also, you need the file edit mentioned above. The easiest way to do that is to download and use the BG3 Mod Loader. Then, after installing the mod with the mod loader (moving it over to the left side of the Mod Loader interface), you select "Save Mod Order" in the Mod loader menu, followed by "Export to Game".

If you missed either of those things, the mod won't work.

From their FAQ: "We loved what our modding community did with DOS2, and we’re excited to see what they’ll do with BG3. Modding will be supported after the full release, though not exactly at launch."

Yeah it's not a 'full release' yet. It's still early access to polish up Act 2 and Act 3. LOL

I can't right now, I'm in the middle of playing in my tabletop DnD game. I'm just still able to reply to forums with the steam app.

Trying to mod a game so soon after launch is asking for trouble

This.
Patience, the workshop is on its way and then be off to races without having to manually install or fiddle with mod launchers/patchers.

pitty
Honestly most of the warnings are pretty useless because they just pop-up any time the mod itself isn't version updated, (which mostly just involves unpacking the .pak, editing 1 number, then repacking) which frankly is more of a pain than it's worth doing.

Nope, that BS. DOS2 modding is bad too. Most of the mods are a pain to add and either add nudity, absurd fetish nudity or some cheat to the game, so nothing really "great" or anything I would personally think the devs "loved"... but hey they actually made the first two "main category" kinda part of the full release so it's probably the case...

And by all means: do not blame the modders either! The majority of us ask for nothing AND get nothing for something we do in our vacant time for fun. Running after each patch to make one player happy is not our job. It is about us having fun, and we share the fun. If you want to demand something, then PAY FOR IT.

even the modsetting.lsx overwrites on start if u dont mark it as read only.
I know no game that is so hard to mod
I never even once messed with the modsetting.lsx...I just copy the paks into the localapps mod folder, start up bg3modmanager, drag the mods in, save & export the loadorder and everything worked so far...

I had just installed some mods that were mentioned by a YouTuber, since they looked pretty awesome. The next day the Patch 2 hit, lol. Took me a little bit to figure out how to roll back my installed mods, and then had to use a recent save game from before I installed the mods to get back to playing. Some still worked, but the save games after the mods were installed were expecting the other mods to be there and got some crashes.
