Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Latest News Hotfix #32 Now Live! Version Number: 4.1.1.2154614

Hello everyone,

Today we bring you a new hotfix, which addresses some common reasons for crashes and other gameplay issues.

This hotfix will also take care of the issue causing parties of 3-4 players to crash when a second player joins an already-started conversation. (Warning: We're pleased to assist in making your party chats run smoothly, but you're on your own when it comes to avoiding small talk.)

A big thank you to all who reported this issue and all the rest!

For our Mac players, we know you’re still waiting for Patch 9. We’re continuing to work on the stability of the build on Mac, but need some more time to address the issues.

CRASHES AND BLOCKERS

• Fixed a crash caused by RAM corruption that would occur when loading into the tutorial.
• Fixed a crash that would occur when booting the game using Vulkan.
• Fixed an issue prompting the 'Mid-dialogue saves are currently disabled' error while not in dialogue, which was preventing you from saving.
• Fixed a crash that would occur in 3- or 4-player sessions - if one player is in a dialogue and another listens in, the game no longer crashes for everyone else.
• Fixed an issue in multiplayer causing the UI to disappear when switching from listening in on the host to listening in on the client.

GAMEPLAY

• Fixed an issue causing your equipped weapon set to switch from melee to ranged or vice versa when loading a savegame.
• Fixed an issue causing some of Shadowheart's spells to disappear from her prepared spell list after saving and then loading that savegame.
• Fixed some visual issues with the Vision of the Absolute spear.

Fixed an issue causing your equipped weapon set to switch from melee to ranged or vice versa when loading a savegame.

Yes! Thank you! So annoying!!!

After Hotfix 32, now getting a 'data mismatch' error, but I have not installed any mods or made any changes to the game. Ugh.

Same issue here, I've tried verifying the game files but the warning is still there.

FIX THE GOD DAMN HOTKEY!!!!!!

Larian
When I looked at bug reports I think the files identified as data mismatch are real game files?

Frustrating, I know. We're cursed. Just try to take it with a little humor.

Thanks for the Mac update and letting us know we’re still on the radar.


~patiently, impatiently waiting for Patch 9 on my Mac Studio…

The data mismatch error appeared ever since patch 9 was initially launched (on my end). I am using the GOG offline installers and this is the content of the "galaxy_4.1.1.2084795_alteredFiles.txt" file:
Version: 4.1.1.2084795
Platform: galaxy

-------------------------
Altered/Added files 2
EULA.txt
webcache.zip

-------------------------
Files in Mods folder 0

Again, the content of the file is identical even with the latest hotfix installed (obviously the version number changes). It appears to be a false alarm or at least not a severe issue of data mismatch.

simply remove those two files from the bg3 location... they should not be there
p.s, yes the alarm is bullshit

In my case this was :

Version: 4.1.1.2154614
Platform: steam

-------------------------
Altered/Added files 3
bin\bg3.exe
Data\Localization\English_Animations.pak
Data\Localization\Voice.pak

-------------------------
Files in Mods folder 0

I tried 1) removing the files from the folder, then 2) verifying files (so they would be reinstalled).
The warning is still there.

Good news is so far, the data mismatch error does not seem to be impacting gameplay or saves. Fingers crossed it is just a 'false alarm'.

Curse you, now I must watch the entire thing!

Apparently poor Phil spent 10,000 years stuck in that day. They did the math.

YW

so to be clear, the main point of hotfix 32 is to repair the issues caused by hotfix 31?

those 3 files are needed by the game and should be in those folders so your issue is different to Bomor

i'm going to assume you tried telling Steam to verify the game so i'd shut down the Game and Steam fully then run Steam as admin and try verify again then if that doesn't clear it your OS or antivirrus is blocking Steam and you would need to look into where i.e, what folder location things are placed

I mean, I know all that haha. Everything was fine before the last Hotfix, I already run everything in admin and my antivirus is properly set. Plus, everything was install and re-installed properly. My drivers are also up to date.

To me, this is on Larian's end at this point. Something is not tagged properly in their code and is making this warning appear.

Luckily, like sollis68, this does not seem to impact the actual game. It's just annoying to see this warning for no good reason.

Chromatic Orb still broke if you learn it by scroll and then “learn” it again at level up.

[*] Fixed a crash that would occur when booting the game using Vulkan.

This issue sadly still persists for me. I would think it has something to do with my AMD 7000 series graphics card and their drivers maybe. I already sent a support email a few minutes ago to help with this issue.
The DX11 Version works thankfully.

And yes, my gameversion is updated to patch 4.1.1.2154614

More like 33 years and 350 days but who's counting :P

Fair to assume that this was the final hotifx for patch 9? Or are more hotfixes planned before launch?
