Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems Several clipping, placement and cinematic issues

Hello.
Lets start with the clipping and placement first.

Here the chest is clipping through the table:


Here the thrall is floating in the air:



Now with the cinematics. Here the thrall's shoulder is clipping through the ground:



Here there is no US in the cinematic - a very old issue that needs fixing.



Feel free to update this thread with your observations of another similar issues.
I will update it as I play too.

Ok, lets continue.

Ranged tooltips for battlemaster actions don't have a saving throw mentioned:


The portrait on the approval bar frequently disappears:


Astarion has a missing description in his character sheet:


The book in the temple is clipping through the stand:


This dead fisherman is floating in the air:


This cinematic has a solid black texture in the background (borders outlined in red):

Part 3.

Olly's appearance doesn't match his portrait. The fight started after I encouraged the gnolls to brace the fire.


Disarming attack doesn't have a saving throw mentioned in the tooltip:


Broken item placement in the tollhouse cellar 1:


Broken item placement in the tollhouse cellar 2:


Cutscene with a dead zariel agent plays like if his corpse was on the roof, while it really is inside the tollhouse:

Part 4.

Rafael's animation is stuck during this moment of the conversation:


The vase is clipping inside the zhentarim elevator location:


The barrel is clipping inside the zhentarim hideout barn:


Benrin is sitting and clipping through the floor instead of lying under the beam:


Placeholder icon for hypnotic pattern scroll:

Part 5. Several important ones here.

Haste Helm was redesigned, but 3D model was poorly implemented.
1. The feathers always detach from the helmet:


2. There is no 3D model at all for Halflings:


Also there is no animation for dual-staves. They just overlap each other:


Clipping (Selune Shrine in the Owlbear Cave):


Clipping (unless intended?) in the Whispering Depth:


Clipping in the Blighted Village celar:


Barcus is broken:

Also if i see corectly your Flute should be hidden?

Part 6.

Lets start with some minor tooltip issues:

The conditional property should be always visible, not only when you stay in the light. Also there should be a description for this skill in the level up menu.

Placeholder icon for the arrow of darkness effect:


A weird warlock class property on the level up menu:


Placeholder icon for the glyph of warding variant:


Gobbos are bugged out as usual:


T-posing bug that occurs most often on entering new areas and immediately triggering a fight:


Weird thing, Dror Ragzlin is holding the hammer in his off-hand and his animations are really wacky:


The Abdirak scene became very dark:

Placeholder Icons for some Scrolls:

Scroll of Stinking Clouds
Scroll of Glyph of Warding
Scroll of Protection from Energy

Part 7.

Mainly cinematics.

Broken background during the conversation with Sovereign Spaw:

Nere's head appears in the conversation with Glut, even though I haven't even been to the Grymforge yet:


When talking to Blurg there is a scene when his palm covers the whole screen:


Baelen is clipping through the bibberbang after you rescue him:


A weird myconid appearing in the background during the ebonlake grotto conversation with Glut (after you kill the duergar):


Blurg has the same problem as Dror Ragzlin, he holds the weapon in the off-hand:

Hello! Figured I'd piggyback on this thread instead of creating a new one for the same kind of issues

Artifacts in the sky behind Zevlor
This is when the goblins first attack.




The door to Nettie's room is full open, but looks half closed.
My characters can pass through no problem, which looks odd.




She's air-playing with the instrument strapped to her back.
During the cutscene she's got the instrument in her hands all right.




Sleeve clipping through the fret board.
During the cutscene.




Instrument clipping through her thigh.
Also during the cutscene. When she leans in, it's worse; unfortunately I could only capture this picture.




Hand clips through her thigh.




There's supposed to be a boar here.




Armor clipping through the arm.
This is during the cutscene with the True Soul.




Tadpole's tail clipping through Tav's hand.
Also in the True Soul cutscene.

Missing string to investigate the tadpole pool.




Head clipping through the seat.
Does it qualify as an armchair?

I also take the liberty of adding something so I don't have to make another thread.

Rikka's hair / pigtail is as stiff as hard bread during movement. It remains stiff even in downward movement and goes partly into her back in upward movement.



Dwarf stucking in the hole in floor (entrance to the Dank Crypt.)



Floating spear (throw action)



Dead NPCs with two-handed weapons - the weapon is always incorrectly displayed upright instead of next to the corpse.



Shadowheart`s Mysterious Artifact is not shown in her hands...



Some Void Buld / Acid Buld dont show the "AoE-circle"... (throw action)



Not reachable. A Void Buld and other miscellaneous cannot be added to the inventory. (Access via the left staircase from Commander Zhalk).



A hanging fire bowl in the Statue of Jergal / Entombed Scribes room cannot be targeted for lighting.

When you let Auntie Ethel take care of you, she hands you a healing potion, which you drink (two cutscenes are shown for this) but no healing is granted.



Taman's dialgoue text is not shown, only in the log.



Why doesn't Nadira's Soul Coin become stackable with the others and instead become more highlighted?

Guex cutscenes with no weapons occur after Read Thoughts dialogue options.

Mind flayer tentacles clipping through the ground.



Mind flayer shoulder also clips through the armor in this one.
I noticed after prepping the screenshot so the arrow only points at the tentacles that clip through the ground, but look at the shoulder and you'll see it.




Flaming sword has no flames.
This one doesn't seem to happen all the time, though; not sure what triggers it.




Another floating corpse.




Upper eyelashes clipping through lower eye lids when eyes are closed.




Banner clipping through the pillar.




Bandages clipping through the guy's chest.




Black blobs behind the character.
This is during the "read the book with the gods' names" cutscene.

AndreaColombo and Lotus Noctus, thank you both for the contribution!
Please, before submitting your post, check if the issue was already mentioned before, so that we can keep the thread clean for the devs to potentially look into.


This one, for example, I've already mentioned:

My bad! I would edit it out of my post but I can't seem to find the edit button...?

Here are another couple visual issues:

Strange perspective during this conversation
with Auntie Ethel in the Druid Grove.




Pendant clipping through the ogre's belly

If you arrive at Ravaged Beach, don't recruit Shadowheart, and immediately take a Long Rest, you get a cutscene with falling asleep problems. The horns of my Tiefling stick out into the ground.



Speak with dead Kanon





The Cap of Curing Patch 8 display bug changes any hairstyle to a bald head!

Merging with the environment behind the Provisional Prison.



Merging with Mattis' scrap table.



In the Enclave Library there is a huge black hole (door size) as a wall what just resembles a black spot. In the Dank Crypt there is something similar, but at least you can still see the natural environment behind it.




Erama's hood is not exactly supple in motion, but very stiff and partially merges with her body.



The beard merges with the clothes (tadpole dream scene).

I am unsure about the following two unfortunate blends. I guess it's supposed to be a highlighting of concealed characters / objects in each case?


1. Auntie Ethel in Druid Grove.


2. A hidden backpack near the entrance Underground Passage from the wilderness.



Gomwick's arm and portrait here merge felt into the ethereal world....



Shadowheart is sawed by her own shield.
