I’m new to mods I’m using vortex but can’t get this game to work

I downloaded vortex an to test out if I did everything right I downloaded the x9000 weight limit mod along with that LSLib/divine one it says to install in vortex to make it work but nothing changed in game. My game an vortex are on different drives so I made a mod folder on the drive the games in and used vortex mod staging point to select that folder for all the mods to be installed in.

Anyone know why the goblin slayer armor mod is showing up as default armor for me? (Ps5)

Like the title says the armor is just default rather than the special model itself. Here’s what it looks like at the moment.

Need help figuring out what difficulty config to play on

Okay so me and 2 other friends are playing through BG3 with levels unlocked to 20, more encounters mod, and 2x exp mod to reach lvl 20. We also have the party limit mod to let each pc have a partner, so 6 active party members total.
And right now we're level 10 and i think we're about right at half way done with act 2. Combat so far has been pretty easy, despite giving 65% more hp, 2 more actions, and one more extra bonus.
Also i should state the party is pretty balanced (i may be wrong, so correct me if i am) with a bladesinger, light cleric, barbarian, sorcadin, bard, and a fighter

Now right now the only difficulty we'd have is that when our tanks are overrun, they have a hard time staying alive. Now tbh to me that just makes sense since its more of user error, and isnt really a problem. But i want to bump up the difficulty to make it so that our fights are something for us to sweat about, but not have our hearts beating out of our chest.

So from the settings that I've stated, what should i increase? Or hell what to decrease in trade to turn up another aspect even more?

Does anyone know where I can find these mods again?

This is a character I made when patch 8 dropped but I recently had to hard reset my computer and lost all my mods in the process. Would anyone know where I can find the hair, the piercings and the dress?

Home Brew - Comprehensive Reworks Version 9.0 Has Released!

Hey everyone! Version 9.0 of Home Brew has just released!

Home Brew is a massive project I've put hundreds upon hundreds of hours into developing, working to overhaul and improve the game in every area!

Just recently I introduced a sixth subclass for all thirteen classes, bringing the total count for original subclasses up to a staggering 78! All hand made from the ground up and refined with over two years of work.

With version 9.0, I also went back through everything I've done up to this point and focused solely on refinement. I wanted to seriously hone in on the balance in the mod, and try to get things exactly where I want them! And well, 9.0 is the result. :)

If you haven't given Home Brew a shot yet, now is the absolute best time to do so. It's very much in the best state that it's ever been. Every known bug has been crushed, and a positively absurd amount of content has been added in, all carefully balanced over time with community feedback.

Build crafting has been expanded with a massive amount of options in regards to how you want to build your characters. The AI has been worked on repeatedly, and are now *extremely* fast and deadly when acting.

We've even got an entirely new difficulty mode unique to Home Brew and selectable on the main menu - Mythic difficulty, for those who want something even more punishing than honour!

Every class, subclass, feat, item, character, the AI, nearly all status effects, positively everything has been looked over and balanced for Home Brew's new systems! It's taken an absolutely ridiculous amount of time, but I'm so happy with where it's at today.

Give the mods page a look! And if you're interested, or have tried Home Brew in the past, let me know what you think of it! Would love to have you in the community! :D

Looking for Help With an Off-Hand Crystal

Blackwood's Red Mage at Baldur's Gate 3 Nexus - Mods and community

Blackwood's Red Mage for Baldur's Gate 3 - mod.io

I just updated this mod just last night to include an offhand object that I made from a shield template. It works, but it still looks a bit janky to me.

In the last picture, you can see the inspiration. The design goal is to have the crystal appear to be hovering and pulsing with power, but not an overbearing glow.

I'm aware of Manaflare - Magic Aura Weapons at Baldur's Gate 3 Nexus - Mods and community, and it's great, but entirely a different direction than I'm trying to go.

Is there any way to make it appear more like a hovering crystal where the glow and effects come from it rather than the hand? Or, is there any asset in the base game that approximates this better than I did?

I'm still very new at this, and I couldn't figure out how to change the size of the texture.

Current best way to mod bg3 in your opinion?

Haven't played in a while, and want to do a playthrough soon, and I always use a few mods. What is the current situation about modManager vs inGame (mod.io was it?)

I want to hear your opinions on the whole thing, but also maybe a personal recommendation?

I am not looking for much, just the usual: better camera, tweaks, I want a turn on/off godmode (hate resetting), lvl 20 and some extra spells. But I also want a few outfits that I just pop on at the start of the run and keep on....

Mod recommendations?

I am kinda new to mods, & also never post on Reddit so apologies if I do this wrong. I am looking for some recommendations for mods to add to the aesthetics of my Selûnite Paladin 🌙 I found a head called Eilistraee that has glowing star freckles & I am obsessed, however, I am super attached to this one head I always use. Does anyone know if something similar exists as a separate thing like a freckle or tattoo mod or something? I haven't found much via search so I thought I'd pick y'all's brains 😎

Have there been any "DLC Lite/Light" mods released for BG3?

I'm fully aware that Larian will not be making DLC for BG3 (Working with WoTC isn't exactly easy going)

But i am wondering whether there have been any DLC esque mods that have been released for BG3?

I know it would be a tall ask for them to be decently voice acted as well. But worst case scenario is "No, none like that"

Consistent crashing on fast travel

On two different campaigns (one with mods added mid playthrough, one with the mods from the start), the area around Waukeen's rest is causing my game to crash whenever I try to change area (fast travel, going to camp) or discover the inn itself- as soon as the pop up for the it appears.

I've tried clearing my cache, reinstalling and verifying files, switching between vulkan and dx11, updating drivers, looking for any dead bodies with more than 0hp - which I read is a common trigger for this bug.

Has anyone here experienced this ?

Turning down difficulty on AMP

Greetings,

This is my first time playing the AMP mod (Ancient Mega Pack) and I like and idiot, enabled Ultra difficulty when the prompt came up in Act 2. Is there a way to go back to Normal difficulty or am I screwed and need to start over with a fresh run? Probably should read the fine print next time...

I like the idea of the mod, but I didnt sign up to fight Omni-Man and the other superbosses on top of the main game.

Also I'm looking to see if theres a way to restore my run, not trying to beat it at this level of difficulty. My head hurts from slamming my head against the wall so much.

Mod Preview -- STAV

Does your character creation always take forever because you can't decide what tattoo to use? Hate being limited to just one at a time? Does figuring out how to use a glowmap and set a color by sRGB values drive you bonkers?

Meet Susan! Susan is here to tell you about STAV, brought to you by u/EvlSnailofDestrktion and Nzx!

STAV is an upcoming alternative to UTav, KAVT, or CCO. You'll set your base face tattoo in the CC Menu as usual (or your mirror). Any tattoo/makeup/etc atlases you previously had that are KAVT compatible will also be compatible with STAV; you'll just need to do a quick simple rename of your files, and drop them into the correct folders. No editing in photoshop or GIMP required.

Mod Features:

  • Up to three separate face tattoos at once, one with glow effect
  • Up to three separate body tattoos at once, one with glow effect
  • Capable of reading a head tattoo atlas containing up to 93 images
  • Capable of reading a body tattoo atlas containing up to 60 images
  • Body scars independent of body textures
  • NO tattoo switcher mod needed
  • The STAV menu is also accessible in Photomode!

Other than Script Extender, STAV does not have any requirements or dependencies. (It will interface with MCM however, so you can tick the setting to auto-open in photomode if you want to.) By not using virtual textures for the scars, body scars and body textures can be used together without conflicts.

A Universal Patcher, just like the one for KAVT, will be releasing as well, so you can use your modded heads.

Yes, the Orin swirlies are animated and do swirl! I asked about the textures (I wasn't sure if it was due to a setting on my end) and was told they're currently low res, and should be updated for release.

As a die-hard KAVT junkie, I was really hesitant to try something new, but y'all, I think I'm sold. I'm really excited to be able to share this with you -- keep an eye out in the next day or two for the live release!

Trying to follow Cedastarions' Head Mod Guide

I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask, but idk where else to😭 I’m trying to follow this guide, I’m at the point where I’ve sculpted the head, exported it, and converted it to .GR2. I’ve turned it into an override for a vanilla head in order to test it in game. But when I click on it, the head is invisible and the textures for mouth and eyelashes are swapped. Has anyone experienced this?? No idea what causes it, the guide doesn’t say a word about this and a google search brought up nothing.

Mod Preview - ADOS Complete Custom Campaign

Have you been itching for new stories in BG3?

Do you hate it when modders make a new story and it's incomplete?

Do you wish you could spend more time with the vampire spawn and dive deeper into the dynamics of the Szarr Mansion?

https://preview.redd.it/madkl4uax6bh1.png?width=2079&format=png&auto=webp&s=c805e1d6befd46b55ab73c67d5ee846e32d8a52b

✨Look no further - ADOS Act 3 is nearing completion!✨

^(Perhaps unwisely) I have decided to enter the Modathon with ADOS and am looking forward to an intense few weeks with optimization and bug fixing!

https://preview.redd.it/sr1d7svfw6bh1.png?width=1972&format=png&auto=webp&s=ac47f0338cc909befc36a19e3e8cb130b55fdfc7

A Dream of Silence (ADOS) ReVamped is my reimagination of the text based game "A Dream of Silence" by Abigail Corfman (a fantastic writer and video game creator, you can find other works by her here).

I wanted to make the story playable in the BG3 engine, and I also wanted to learn how to make it - so that making custom campaigns would be more accessible to other modders.

Mod Features:

For Players:

  • The final outcomes of Astarion's story in the Dreamscape (at the moment 4 different endings)
  • 6 potential new companions with companions dialogues and rewards
  • New weapons and introduction of previously inaccessible weapons
  • More dynamic combat and boss fights
  • As ADOS Act 3 requires a new save to work, a version where you can skip directly to Act 3 will also be available on release. If you'd like to check out Act 1-2, you can find it here.

https://preview.redd.it/5e0luzr3w6bh1.png?width=2203&format=png&auto=webp&s=1a7f6bc9cc788de88e22a2da5105a04c0b01d7d5

For Modders:

  • A .pak to explore to see how to very simply set up a custom campaign
  • Scripts and table entries for custom companions
  • Updates non-compulsion visuals for all the vampire spawn
  • A wide variety of scripts concerning multi-NPC dialogues and simple mechanics for timers, teleportation and battle
  • Examples on how to implement movies and new sound (even without soundbanks)

Important notes:

  • ADOS ReVamped contains no use of AI and is a 100% "learning by doing" project
  • The mod has the support of the original creator
  • The mod is made with the BG3 Toolkit and Moonglasses and does not require SE
  • It has no dependencies, but you may use most other mods with it (visual mods, weapons mods, etc)
  • I am ever thankful to my beta testers and contributions from HyperspaceTowel, Lyra, Niniisan and many others (full credits to be included in the release)

🦇 The Modathon clock is ticking, wish Astarion luck on his escape! 🦇

Busty and Packed Slayer Mod Request/(Potential)Commission

*Please be aware that this an 18+ mod idea with some very weird concepts that some may find excessive or strange. Reader discretion is advised.*

Almost a month ago I put a post about giving The Slayer Form breasts (for female) or just nipples (for male) depending on the body type chosen in CC as an idea. As well as the genital options that were chosen as well. And now I would like request to have this concept brought to life. So hear I am again to properly ask this time. Including the potential of having potentially multi-breasts (for female) and multi nipples (for males).

In addition, (if possible) there is a second part to this that would be cool. I would also like to incorporate a gameplay function to them as well, by being able shoot out a variety of fluids and substances from them. Like poison, acid, a paralysis substance, sticky goo, or healing ointment as a few examples. With hopefully some proper animations for them (such as having one or both sets of arms squeezing the breasts{f}/nipples{m}), but if not a simpler solution can be worked out.

My apologies if this is a lot and I know it would be a lot of work, but I just wanted to get this out there some for anybody, be it one or more person is interested in doing this project. Maybe share it to someone who would be willing and/or interested to this. You can ask me details about this topic if needed to clarify some ideas. Thank you for anybody and everybody who a least heard me out.
