New Bug I've never seen anyone else have in Sharran Temple
Hey everyone, I have a pretty big bug that's keeping me from progressing and I haven't seen anyone online with this issue, so hoping I can find someone here.


I took the elevator platform in Shar's temple down to the second Umbral Gem offering pedestal with absolutely no bugs or problems, but upon clicking the pedestal to load in the 3 gems, I get a pop up for all three gems at once. When I drag them from my inventory into the slot, they don't leave my inventory, and when I hit submit only one gem is showing on the pedestal but all three are gone from my inventory. I can't progress.

Anyone else having this issue?

I managed to ''remove'' the bug with a mod, I'll leave it here for you and a brief explanation
Website: https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/2410?tab=files&file_id=17170
Explanation: download the mod and when entering your save place one of the umbral stones on the ground and duplicate it 3 times, then place it again on the altar, repeat if necessary, mine was only needed once and it opened (I don't know why)

Hi! I got this issue and reported it! Don't know in which platform you're playing, but in my case I play on PC and the problem was, ofc, the mods I used. Deactivating them is not enough and you have to remove all the mod files, I'll copy and paste here their answer! I
did the first two steps and it worked, (previously I tried what they have on Larian's FAQ section on their website but it didn't work)


Do you have any mods installed or were you using mods previously?

If you are currently using mods or have used them previously, they may be what is causing this issue. It’s best to double check that all mod files are completely removed. To do so, check the 'Mods' and 'Public' folders in the '..\SteamApps\common\Baldurs Gate 3\Data' folder, etc; and if present, both folders are safe to delete. If applicable, you can also delete the modsettings.lsx file in the profile folder.

You are also going to need to check the local AppData folder for the current user account: '..\SteamApps\common\Baldurs Gate 3\Data' as any old mod files may have been copied over to there. To do this, copy the following line into the location bar in Explorer and hit Enter: %LocalAppData%\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Mods
Delete any files you find there.

Is the launcher giving a data mismatch warning? If so, it should have created a log file listing any files in the install folder which are not expected as well as files in the Mods folder. To check, copy the following line into the location bar in Explorer and hit Enter: %LocalAppData%\Larian Studios\Launcher\Cache Then, look for a text file named steam_<VersionNumber>_alteredFiles.txt (or similarly, starting with 'galaxy_', for the GOG version).

Try starting a new game to test.

Try verifying local files: in the Steam library, right click on the game and select Properties, switch to the Local Files tab and then click on the 'Verify Integrity of Game Files...' button. If you are using the GOG version, in the Galaxy client, select the game, then the settings icon at the top right, beside the Play button and under Manage Installation, select 'Verify / Repair'.

If applicable, disable Steam cloud support either globally or for only this game. For disabling Steam Cloud globally, within the client click on the Steam menu and select Settings, and then Cloud. Or just for this game: go to your Steam library and right click BG3 and select Properties, then switch to the General tab and check the Steam Cloud section. Alternatively, exit out of the Steam client, or Galaxy for the GOG version, and just start the game directly from the executable when required.

Next, try browsing to the 'C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\Larian Studios' folder and rename the 'Baldur's Gate 3' subfolder. The easiest way to get there would be to copy the following line into the location bar in Explorer and hit Enter: %LocalAppData%\Larian Studios

This folder contains the saved games, configuration files and a level cache folder. Deleting or renaming it will get the game to recreate it on startup.

If the game still has the same issues, delete the replacement BG3 folder and if you have any saves that you wish to keep, rename the original back again.


Hope it helps!

I have a zillion mods and was not looking forward to this. In my case, it turned out I needn't have worried.
