Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Latest News Community Update #30 - Photo Mode, Cross-Play, and 12 Subclasses Coming Next Year

I'm excited about the photo mode. A bit less about the new subclasses. So my question, with so many things in this one patch is, will it be compatible with patch 7 saves ? If it is not, it means I would have to playthrough with my same party through all the acts again to make some flashy photo's in the city. Could you find out about this savefile compatibility ?
If they are not compatible, and we get a separate patch 7 branch, would it be possible to add just the photo mode to this branch, so we can use our saves to make nice screenshots ?

No hiatus are planned during the stress test!


Saves should continue to be compatible going from Patch 7 to Patch 8!

Very nice. Dont really need any of that. But very nice.

BG3 was already the perfect game. With mods one can add new classes and subclasses.

I would have liked some final touches in the UI, like "sort by value per item" so I can for example sort a bag full of scrolls by the scroll level (which is directly linked to the spell level).

Which right now doesnt work because if you sort stacks you always sort by the weight or value of the full stack, not the single stack item.

Will even modded saves continue to be compatible? I think I know the answer, but it would be nice to have confirmation. Since I am guessing the answer is maybe but there is no guarantee/mods will need to be updated for this patch as they normally do (especially UI mods which many other mods even console mods rely on), it would be nice/essential to have a patch 7 branch so people can keep playing while mods are updated.
