Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Modding modsettings.lsx keeps resetting

Hey everyone,

I used to play BG3 a lot but after 5 playthroughs did a little break, some of them were modded, even on the Deck with a locally installed Mod manager (not Vortex).

I've picked it up again last weekend and the mod manager mysteriously didn't work anymore, which I found out after BG3 once more deleted the modsettings.lsx so I've wanted to re deploy the mods.

I have not been able to reinstall the manager at all, didn't work.

So I installed everything by hand, didn't work, game didn't start at all. Uninstalled BG3, installed it from scratch and the game started. Without the mods.

Turns out, the game resets my modsettings.lsx at every single start of the game. Setting it to read only doesn't work, making it a symlink doesn't work either. Additionally there are (always resetted even after deleting) modsettings-sync-error-somethingsomething.lsx files too.

I'm really at my wits end and it seems I can't play modded BG3 on my Deck anymore, except maybe someone can help me there?

I COULD play it modded on my PC, BUT I play a weekly multiplayer without mods there and with some mods replacing files, that would be too much of a hassle every time.


Edit: Ok, solved it. One mod seems to have been erronous, as soon as that one wasn't in the load order anymore, it didn't reset. The strange sync error files are still there however.
