So, the ingame modmanager just tried to reinstall ImpUI. Things start to make sense now. I thought I had already removed it long ago. Deleted with BG3MM, but I didn not unsubscribe from mod.io. So last time when all mods got disabled, I probably just clicked all checkboxes to re-enable them and ImpUI was among them.
Ah the joys of modding.

Hi everyone. Me and my friends have just started playing a few weeks ago, with me on my macbook, the host on their PC, and our friend on his PS5. I constantly and consistently keep getting disconnected, and I don't know what to do. I've followed all the advice online. We've all turned off autosave and cross save and enabled cross play. It doesnt work even if I use an ethernet connection. We've tried changing hosts and this still happens. I've tried playing with and without a VPN and it still happens. I dont have private relay on on my mac either. It also happens even if I launch from steam or directly from the app file and log in through larion. Please provide any advice or fixes that have worked for you guys, cause I got no idea what to do.

I'd like to see more dynamic environmental systems, involving weather-based mechanics and interactive construction

There's this mod which allows companions to ascend; really it resets it to the way it was before one of the bug fixes.

I've been trying for so long to find the damn hunter in the swamp, without success. Searching for help, I found that many had this problem and it seems connected to the Witch, who has to be defeated first.
The problem is: she disappeared into the fireplace and from the world! She's not in her cave, even if I hear her voice and she can control me trough the mask. I'm not able to trigger the fight, save Mayrina and then find the hunter, so I got 2 sub-quest lost at once. The hunter's one was particular interesting for me, both 'cause I finally wanted to see that part than to have a chance of gaining more approval from Astarion (just to try to unlock the Yurgir confession, later). Not counting the HP I need before the goblins.
I see this problem has been reported a lot of time ago and it doesn't seems fixed, yet. What should I do, now? I already tried all the hints, from throwing large area magics to force the Witch out - in case the bug was that - to simple "see invisibility" power. Nothing. Someone says it can depend on the moment we start to fight her: if inside the house, we should follow her immediately in the cave... the problem is she just disappeares, when the redcaps attack.
At that point, the advice is to reload before entering the house... a shame that, not founding her, I decided to play other 6/7 hours of stuff (thinking I could come back to this later) that I don't even dream to do again.

I think this is QUITE a bug that should be finally fixed, even if it's not a main quest. Any others with this issue and have suggestions? Most important: is anyone still fixing the game?

Thanks for the answer. Yes, but this is not what normally happens if you drag enemies into another area in any game (or this, but when YOU are the target xD) and what the tutorial says about strategies. Should be fixed, by me.

Update: Part 2, Chapter 19 is now published. Who will survive the treachery at Nevrik's Keep?

BG3.5 - Hellraisers (Fanfiction)
Baldur's Gate 3.5: Hellraisers - an original fanfic story that is a sequel to Baldur's Gate 3 Fanfic: The Afflicted. It picks up immediately after the events of Baldur's Gate 3 as characters from the previous fanfic - Fiovay, Kai, Aelun, Vlyn, and the other members of their party - travel to Avernus. Their quest is to save Karlach but also to hopefully find and rescue Darson, Aelun's father, from the clutches of Demogorgon.

Statistical spikes are always memorable. On tabletop many players have their lucky dice others aren't allowed to touch, almost superstitiously using some dice for attacks, others for saves and yet others for skills. One Star Wars D6-session we played in the mid-2000s was especially memorable. As the GM, I was rolling for both the gunners of a pirate transport with the player characters aboard, one also manning a turbolaser and their Imperial adversaries. They were intercepted and chased by TIE Bombers. When we rolled combat, all the pirate NPCs and player characters rolled normally, but when it was my turn to roll for the Imperial pilots, the Wild Dice rolled straights of 1s, read: One critical failure after the other. This pattern was stable not for one round, but for three consecutive combat rounds even when I switched the sequence. This resulted in the TIE Bombers annihilating each other or themselves. The in-game explanation was that there must have been sabotage by Rebels, but at the table we were like, what the Force was that? In BG3, I remember both some memorable 20s at the Waning Moon accompanied by weird crashes I couldn't reproduce later and Astarion having really bad luck with that mined intersection in Act 1 near the Goblin Camp. "Hey, should we go back to camp and ask Volo?" Other than that, I think the dice behaved pretty normally if you kept Karmic Dice unchecked.

I am well aware that you can, however you still have to handle her being evil for all of SoA and large parts of ToB. Parts in which for example your reputation may not exceed 18, or Viconia will leave (like all evil characters).

I remember first time I played Baldurs Gate, I simply disabled AI all the time so I could have Edwin in party with reputation 20. Not sure if that even works anymore with the EEs.

Yes, but just faces and the like, no game-altering things AFAIK.

Oh. It seems that this feature is not actually available in BG3 Mod Studio. Regardless, editing save files sounds far too complicated and risky. Why make it so complicated? It's easier to filter the .pak file of your AMD+REL mod. All you need is the name of your item or even better also it's description and search for it and you will also find the UUID. Do you need help with it? I can look for it if you tell me the items name or show me a screenshot?

Hey all,

We hope you’ve been enjoying playing Divinity: Original Sin 2 on the latest generation of consoles! Today, we’re ironing out some kinks with a small update for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S that should resolve some performance issues, low FPS and multiplayer connection issues.

Changes: 
- Resolved some issues causing performance and FPS drops on Xbox.
- Fixed a bug preventing you from equipping items even if the equipment conditions were met.
- Improvements to loading speed for some savegames.
- The Teleportation skill should now allow you to move items on Xbox.
- Fixed multiplayer disconnection issues on Xbox.

Totally keeping it together. 

I'm working on a mod for BT1 and I want to be able to test out the model in-game before exporting. Having to exit and startup again just to get shadowheart is annoying.

Got a similar response to a bug report I filed yesterday. Would be nice if they gave a heads-up to the public instead of staying silent unless you reported a bug.

I’ve had something similar happen after a few updates as well. The mod manager sometimes seems to “forget” the enabled state even though nothing actually changed. What helped a bit for me was launching the game once, enabling everything, exiting completely, and then restarting so it writes the modsettings again.

Still feels pretty inconsistent though, especially after patches. I also play the game on laptop.

it would also add two dozen pages of code most people don't use and Larian didn't test actually works

apply hold as a bonus action first i.e, custom bonus action spell effect... personally i'd use a summon which turns invis and just has this custom attack mode [X per rest] as that is very easy to code and does the same thing

Unfortunately game (steam version) crashes on 2 my last quicksaves. It happened after I dropped teleporter pyramid in treasure room of dragon worshipers and went to Ars magicana to sold loot. I make 2 quicksaves near merchants I now cannot load them.
Older saves can be loaded without troubles.
Is there a way to troubleshoot what went wrong and fix my saves?

Hello again, sorry I wasn't responding for long, I've been quite busy. Thank you for your adviced, I attempted to do just like you asked but it was unsuccessful. Furthermore, I went as far as to completely reinstall my entire OS, and the game still won't load. And as a final nail in the coffin, I've now stumbled into a new problem: now the game won't load the main menu past 95%, HOWEVER! Only on my first attempt at launching it. Should I attempt to launch it a second time it will load the main menu but will fail to load a new game past 81%. I did some operations with mods (turning them off and on individually), and I succeeded at loading up a new game ONCE, but after I attempted it again, I was met with failure and now the bug that prevents the main menu from loading past 95% became permanent.

I'm really desperate here, I feel like there's no hope and there's something wrong with my PC at this point.

I always wanted to do a run where I never freed the pixie, but had to run around with a lantern out, just for Astarions and giggles.

Well, in this one, I went the Dryder route, straight to Moonrise, and he kept the moonlantern and scootered up the side of the tower to the top.

Later I went up the outside and cleared it except for Ketheric, and got the moonlantern. I didn't do anything with it (and on retrospect, not sure I could.)

Anyway...


I didn't even know this was possible. I suppose all those dead pixies should have been a clue, it wasn't just due to sloppy work by Balthazar. I've no idea if it was me or the dryder who was responsible.


I plead dumb. Which is easy with an 8 int.
