LOL No Man's Sky has a Starfield inspired spaceship designer now, too !

The new version 6.00 Voyagers came out yesterday (Wed Aug 27 2025) and the new starship type is called Corvette.

The NMS Wiki doesnt have an article on Corvettes yet, but I bet that will soon change.

I have to put Sinners in here too. Since I watched this movie, I'm obsessed. It is not only the best vampire movie,I have ever seen, but also one of the best historical, folk horror and music movies. And the lore is so deep.
Plus the characters are great, every single one.

honor mode game keeps crashing when entering act 3 prolink007 26/08/25 06:37 PM
I am in honor mode and my game keeps crashing when entering into act 3. Screenshot is my party on the road to BG.

Any ideas on how to fix this issue? Its going to suck losing honor mode because of a bug.

I have tried computer restart, updating drivers, long resting, resaving, going and doing other things then trying again, verifying game files. =(

Side note: this is a vanilla BG3. I have no mods.

Re: Broken Visible Shield Mod :( Can you help!?! Eldarin 25/08/25 10:52 PM
this is a pretty constructive post, pinpointing the problem. Larian...please fix this. The Visible shields mod is a must!

Any modification to "EquipmentTypes.lsx" is being ignored

To make shields visible during roaming, it was by modifying a single entry in EquipmentTypes.lsx to make shield attached to a SheathedShield bone.
For cutscenes it was removing the "HiddenDuringCinematic()" attributes on the shield entries in the Armor stats file.

Any modification to EquipmentTypes.lsx is completely ignored ; you can enter weird stuff or even break the syntax and nothing happens. This is clearly a bug or something, this is breaking any mod that edit this file frown

The last patch didn't change anything, sadly.

Gossamer tomb glitch? Seleniumcodec 25/08/25 10:30 PM
I decided to do an honour run in patch eight as I was bored on my bank holiday, so is gossamer tomb on the spider matriarch supposed to be literally every time you swat a little spider as my whole team got webbed and died with zero chance? Hours of my life I will never get back again, as that my friends is over powered.
Also please please Larian, dont do another table top die game as your RNG generator is terrible still just like it was in the early days when I bought it when there was only half of act 1. Nobody and I mean nobody playing tabletop has continously low rolls like I had today unless they are cursed by the devil or something.

Update:

I read somewhere that it is now easier to obtain a VTM license/rights.
They're open for any pitches from developers interested in doing WOD projects.

That is true?
I pray every day for Swen Vincke to get his hands on VTM. cry

How to make a PC voicepack? Quinch 25/08/25 02:44 AM
Hey folks! I just finished the game a few days ago and sooo... I've been considering creating a voicepack for the player character. Pretty much all guides I could find, however, seem to deal with creating classes and models and nothing relating to modding voices. Are there any guides out there I could reference and if not, are there any gullible souls out there I could pester for assistance?

Hopefully you sacrificed Wyll to BOOAL for the benediction that gives advantage against bleeding.

I might have to try a duo melee Barb run, sounds fun.

Sorry, but still can't download/install update 1.800.403 (972.4 MB) on PS5.
Apparantly the update is for Hotfix #33, could that be a problem?

Somebody somewhere must have downloaded this update on PS5.

BTW, the game still plays without this update.
Any info, please?

Thank you.

I've done just about all the tweaking to the head and hair mesh and texture I'm going to for now. See links above if you would like to test for yourself with a Tav.

Now on to planning the real mod. Aerie likes travelling, exploring, and helping people, and indeed fits with themes of abuse, trauma, healing, identity, and has a century of history and experience over the Aerie in BG2. So lots and lots of possibilities for integrating her into the game. Obviously I'll try some simple stuff first then see where we can go from there.

It doesn't matter if you make a deal with the Duergar or not. The minute you blow the blockage, they will run right over and stand in the fire and then they will all attack you. This game really has the greatest artificial stupidity ever.

Re: Frequent Freezes on Mac – Game Becomes Unplayable in Act 3 griffrawk 23/08/25 09:25 AM
Sorry this is a "me too"...

I had crashes in an old save, started way back shortly after proper release. So I started a new save recently on return to the game.

I still get crashes in the new save, and as other posters commented, nearly always when starting dialogue or occasionally with object interactions that were a little more involved, eg they trigger some other event

MacBook Pro M1 Pro, 14", 16GB, macOS 15.6.1
BG3 Version 4.1.1.6897358, no mods (and mod folder cleared)

I was running in full resolution 3024x1964 in fullscreen, but I will try the other graphics options as mentioned above.

Edit--

I just experienced a crash after finishing a long rest, "aaahhh", blank screen, music, but game frozen. Just tried again but with Steam Cloud switched off, and the game was able to autosave successfully after the long rest and everyone woke up correctly. Maybe I have an issue with save syncs (which I don't actually need as I have no other Steam devices and my backups are current).

Edit--

Still experience crashes with cutscenes. I have re-enabled Cloud replaced my saves with the Steam Cloud as documented above. Fiddled with graphics setting, most of the list above basically.

Shadowfell Shadowheart bug+suggestion Dheuster 23/08/25 04:31 AM
If Shadowheart enters the shadowfell with the player but dies before the big choice conversation there, things don't seem to happen as intended. In my case, she somehow fell prone/slipped off the last platform when jumping down, but I'm sure there are other legit scenarios where she could die between entering the shadowfell and starting the big convo there. IE: Seeing what looks like an inevitable confrontation, maybe someone decides to try out one of those fancy hag potions to prep for what they think is going to be a battle and things don't go so well. Anyway, I allowed the bad guy to walk away with what he came for. Then when I got back to camp, I resurrected Shadowheart.

Some of the conversations with SH that followed seemed to indicate Shadowheart experienced things she didn't/hadn't. Online, I learned that the devs decided she was supposed to leave the party if she wasn't present when entering the Shadowfell. In fact, apparently she leaves even if she is dead when you enter and then you resurrect her when you return. But I guess the “death after entering the shadowfell” was an overlooked scenario and is a current bug/loophole. (patch 8)

I eventually reloaded fearing those unset flags might cause issues either with SH or the story progression. I allowed SH to make her choice and then there was a convo that happened when I left the Shadowfell. However when I did, I listened to what she had to say and considered... what if? What if I had resurrected her in camp and the speech I was hearing after her "choice" was the same speech I heard after resurrecting her? And it actually worked really well.

If Shadowheart had been DEAD when the Shadowfell choice happened, whether she died in Act 1 or failed the leap of faith test 30 min earlier or tripped on the way down the hill as she did in my play through or died in the battled with the bad guy... that speech after being resurrected still made sense. Imagine experiencing the would-be after life that awaited her if she failed her goddess. I could totally see her goddess torturing her, not because of a choice she made but because of her failure to complete her mission. And then... boom... Shadowheart finds herself resurrected, saved from her would-be eternal torment and given another chance. Having your goddess torture you in the afterlife is a great way to open your eyes and convince you that maybe you made the wrong choice.

I listened to more of the dialogues with this post-resurrection mindset. There were a few moments when shadowheart mentioned Aylin and her wolf dream... the same things that I noticed that made me aware something seemed off. But nothing THAT out of place. If the line had been skipped and the next line had been spoken, etc.. I wouldn't have even noticed. It occurred to me with a flag that tracked if she was DEAD when the Shadowfell convo happened, it would be relatively easy to kick off the post-choice convo cutscene when she was resurrected and use the flag to omitted select lines from the already existing cutscenes. And it would seem like Shadow-heart changed her faith because of her experience in the afterlife upon failure. There is no reason Aylin wouldn't want to talk to Shadowheart and aid her even if the Shadowfell convo never happened.

When I consider more extreme scenarios like Shadowheart died in Act 1 and you just happen to not resurrect her until after Shadowfell (left her in the care of withers), A nightmare postmortem conversation about the afterlife makes a lot more sense than being chewed out for resurrecting her, doing something she shouldn't have even been aware of and then leaving the party.

So my suggestion is to not simply patch this bug but update the game to allow this "death loophole" as a legitimate alternative. (And fix the other flags that I assume are set when you bring her along so that it doesn't break anything later in the game). And if Larian doesn't fix it, I hope some modder out there makes what I assume would be a simple mod to make these tweaks.

Re: Commander Ralph ThaDevilzHand 23/08/25 12:14 AM
I started playing recently and am having this issue with Commander Ralph and I need some help. I've read Dragon's post with the solutions to fix it, but they aren't working for me. Mainly the going to jail option I'm having issues with because I don't even have the option to go to jail. I go inside and get caught by Commander Ralph and he says, "Hey you! I told you not to go in there! Well now you're for it! GUARDS!! GUARDS!!!" and the only choice I can pick is, "Ah curses." If I go ahead and pick that option too the game acts as if I'm watching a scene play out and I'm unable to move, but Ralph is attacking me. So I can't figure out why I don't have the option to go to jail and I tried looking online as to why I have that issue, but I only get results for Divinity Original Sin 2. I also tried luring an enemy over there, but that didn't help either as the Heavy Orc slaughtered all normal guards while Ralph continued to stay in the room. So I was hoping someone could be my hero after all these years and help me figure out why the game isn't letting me choose to go to jail or just any other solution to fix this.

Re: Suggestion: personality trait animations Trantion 22/08/25 08:45 PM
Yes, that would have been quite nice. I'd have also liked to be able to pick backstory traits, for example where you come from (we have the [Baldurian] tag by default). Although I don't know how quickly those sort of options would require a lot of different stories to be written, when I can just play the story in my head

Re: BG3 Fan Fiction SPOILERS and POTENTIAL SPOILERS GM4Him 22/08/25 05:43 PM
Updated BG3 blog. Book 4: Ascension of the Mastermind, Part 5, Chapter 43. The heroes are raiding the House of Hope. HOPE you enjoy it.

It is the final book in the Baldur's Gate 3 The Afflicted fan fiction. At last, the Afflicted have arrived at Baldur's Gate, but they quickly learn that there is SO much more going on than the Cult of the Absolute. Numerous schemes, conspiracies, and intrigues quickly entangle them and threaten to enslave or destroy them. Will the Afflicted stay united? Will they survive? Will they overcome? Or will the greatest mastermind succeed and ascend to absolute godhood?

This story is free on the blog site to all who wish to read the Baldur's Gate 3 story using characters I created as the protagonists.

MAJOR SPOILERS if you plan on playing the video game. Hope you enjoy.

https://baldursgate3theafflicted.blogspot.com/2021/08/home.html

Book 4: Ascension of the Mastermind (MAJOR SPOILERS!!! It is highly recommended you play the video game first. This story is based on choices and decisions I made while playing the game as well as on what I thought the characters would do if they weren't restricted by the video game. Also, SPOILERS for the Demon Hunters story as it is the prequel to the Afflicted story. Three of the characters from Demon Hunters - Aelun, Vlynrifane, and Fiovay - are among the main characters of this story. There are other characters from Baldur's Gate 3 that are in Demon Hunters, so the two stories are closely tied together. As before, I will be releasing portions of this story as I complete them, so watch for updates regularly.
#28

Also check out Demon Hunters, the 2-Book prequel story based on the Out of the Abyss campaign. The Demon Hunters story has many tie-ins with Baldur's Gate 3 that I've created including several major characters. You might get confused at some points in Baldur's Gate 3 if you haven't read Demon Hunters.

https://dndemonhunters.blogspot.com/2022/09/demon-hunters-d-5e-fan-fiction.html

(Not to be confused with other Demon Hunters stories or franchises. I created Demon Hunters as a story prior to certain other Demon Hunters publications (notice 2022/09 in the above link). I got the name, actually, from a heavy metal Christian band I used to listen to, so there is absolutely no relation with current, popular Demon Hunters.)
