Larian Studios Forums Active Threads Since Yesterday

A Patreon creator operating under the name "TalesofStar" is selling cosmetic outfit mods entirely made out of models and textures extracted from Bg3 (among the many other games they have been stealing from). These files are offered through paid monthly tiers and individual purchases both on Patreon and on their personal website where this creator also posts previews of those files, clearly stating in the description that the assets were ripped from the game. Due to a recent DMCA all those images are now purposefully blurred, but I have saved screenshots to document all of it:

This person has been charging quite a lot of money for access to those files entirely made of stolen assets for quite some time, both as a single purchase and by monthly memberships, distributing them through their external 'member hub' to circumvent Patreon regulations, and blocking all Patreon users who question them or are deemed "problematic". With their setup TalesofStar likely earns more money than the people who work as Character Artists and created the assets, literally stealing their work.

I already got in touch with Patreon about it and have been told that they don't accept reports of copyright infringement unless they are sent directly by the owner, so I am hoping others will be joining me and report this thief to Larian and/or Wizards of the Coast until Patreon is forced to acknowledge that everything Talesofstar is selling is stolen.

Hi everyone, I don't know if there is still active help about this game, especially since hunger from beyond is additionnal content but I hope someone will be able to help me wth this.

Well I am trying to reunite all pieces of the devourer set. For the third part, on nameless isle, I followed all instructions: follow the red arrows, get into the cave near Zor's temple, put a small flame rune into the dragon skull. Every time, I get bitten by the dragon and attacked by undead fanatic lizards. But no way to get the leggings. I tried several things: going in alone after firing everyone in my party, even Delorus, different rune sizes, reloading several saves, thinking maybe I did something that prevented the script to run correctly...
But even alone, if it is the first thing I do when I set foot on the isle, I get attacked, and no pants.

I read somewhere that being attacked is the behavior when we put the wrong rune in the skull. I don't really know what to do since I always put a flame rune. I thought maybe since my game is in french, the name of my rune is not the correct one but it would be rather strange.

Well here I am, stuck and condemned to not be able to finish the devourer set. I could not find anyone on the internet seeming to have the same problem.

If someone has a hint, or knows about this, I would be glad to get some advice !

Have a nice day everyone

To me this makes no sense when you can already choose custom mode and configurate difficulty to your liking, besides there isn't going to be this kind of update coming to the game anymore unless you kickstart a fan made mod project.

I always thought the armor system for boots and gloves was a bit awkward too, especially when you find a cool magical item and then realize your class can't use it because it's classified as medium or heavy. In my home games, we just handwave that a bit and go for what fits the story rather than the strict mechanics, because it can really kill the excitement when loot becomes useless for half the party.

Okay so I found everything. The amulet of bhaal was lying on the floor somewhere. I want to say I looked pretty thoroughly moving around and hitting x to search the area. I did fast travel back to wyrm’s crossing and then back to the murder tribunal. Maybe that “reset” something. Either that, or I was blind the first round. Either way I’m happy to continue the game.

About the stuff that I send to camp when exploring; I found it all in my box at the camp in Wyrm’s crossing, the box in lower city remains empty. I thought those boxes were interchangeable but I guess I’m mistaken

Yes, unfortunately you said it.

Yeah, I also think they have moved on.

I still think that it is a bad decision for Hasbro, for Larian, and for players. Maybe one day they'll sit around a table and go back.

I hope.
