GUIDE: How to install the new patch

[Ellie]

1. If you have mods, delete everything, reinstall clean.
2. If you don't have mods, install the patch.
3. If you play on Mac, rethink your life.

Just waiting for the one angry Mac gamer who says Macbooks ARE viable gaming machines and no, YOU'RE crying yourself to sleep!

I will adjust the steps a bit :-)

1. If you have mods you don't need to reinstall clean. You only need to:
- zip and remove the mod folders and replace any mod dlls with the original ones in the game folder, like e.g. "NativeMods" and corresponding dll files + BG3SE dll file (all in bin); "Mods" and "Public" folders in the game Data folder
- rename the BG3MM loading file "modsettings.lsx" in the Folder Appdata/Local/Lian Studios/Baldur's Gate 3/PlayerProfiles/Public" so no mods are loaded

And, of course, do not try to load a previous modded save ;-)

1. Not necessary. (If you know what you're doing, of course, but that proviso always applies.)
1a. You just have to see what's broken. So far looks like Script Extender. Good thing I can't use it. Maybe other reports will come in.
2. Self-evident advice never hurts, I suppose.
3. It's actually kind of useful having a patch delay, as I get a period of time to see everything the patch messed up or changed, before having to apply it. So it doesn't bother me much. The patches rarely add anything of GREAT consequence, and I don't do MP, so again for me not so big a deal. The forum ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ over broken mods or game changes have also usually subsided by that point.

Then you've never worked as a repairman.

Its always fun to see these guys raging and demanding that their nonstandart hardware gets the same treatment as that hardware, which the software primarily was made for. lul
