Mod Support?

[Mister Zero]

Let me explain. I beat the game once already, and now I want to play around. Goof off with mods.

You know. God items. Become max level before leaving the ship, ect ect. Silly crap.

Thing is...depending on the mod(s) I use. The game either crashes in the level up screen (recent)

Or it won't let me move my character (previous attempts)

I heard tell that in September they'll be doing updates that allow mods and such. Or at least prevent them from screwing things up.

Thoughts?

Read mod description before installing!

They don't all work nice with each other, AKA know what you are actually doing. You can just as easily break your game with modding if you don't read the requirements.

And no, september will not 'allow' modding as you can obviously already do that. It will just give official modding tools which should make it more efficient to mod.

Modding already works just fine, but you can't randomly put the mods in and play. Some have requirements, most requires the script extender, and you have to respect a specific load order to make them work together, meaning you need first and foremost the BG3 mod manager.

Even if larian adds mod support, you still gonna have to respect the load order and be sure that your mods are compatible with each other. And right now, if you're using multiple class mods, you need to get the compatibility framework too.

After my initial testing I have never once had an issue with any of the mods I have created.

That is not the case with most mods you find crawling around in the dark.

The mod release will likely be nothing more than a mod creation app that will allow the novice to build and troubleshoot their mod. I doubt it will be anything else, just like dos1 and dos2 ones that were released.

uh... there are already a bunch of good modpacks on nexus, if you don't have a clue how to make it work well.

I use nexus. My guess is level up mods are screwy right now. I legit put in ONE mod through nexus/vortex, and it doesn't work.

That's hardly my fault. Especially when I mod OTHER games and they don't have this issue.

There's an independent mod manager for BG3?

I didn't think of that...crap.

I'm playing with mods with out any issues, I get them from nexus and use the mod manager. Not all the mods will work together but most do. Also, read when it was last updated, some mods stopped working after patch 6 and were never updated.

The "not working after patch 6" could be the issue.
