Still nothing on this. There are a few workarounds. The one I used is for my buddies to join my new game, make the exact character I ask for and then I am set. I just did this using my Wife's account to make a companion for my Paladin.

There is a mod for this but be careful using this. The increase party size can really break the game balance.

I use this mod rather than Increase Party Size.
Recruit any NPC - Transform NPC Into Playable Character - Make Full Custom Character Party - No party limit - Resurrect Dead
https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/1646

I am running a party of six currently. My two extras are Bryanna (the sister of the True Soul killed by the owlbear) and Cyrel (the merchant dodgy paladin in the Tollhouse). Made Bryanna a ranger and Cyrel a wizard. We are currently in Act 2 (the Last Light).
Can't swear on it but I think this mod may make a full custom party doable.

I don't feel there is a noticeable game balance problem as I use several mods which make things 5e/RAW (playing on normal).

This is a nice little mod:
Cleric Subclasses - Release
https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/432
I respecced Shadowheart to Twilight Domain mostly for RPing reasons - Twilight seemed a better fit for Shar than Trickery.

I also use the more backgrounds mod.

I use 20-24 mods and it's nice to see them all working well and they are getting updated on a regular basis. Touch wood, I've not had any problems with hotfixes and patches so far. I did break my first game with a mod but that was entirely my fault.

The recruit any NPC mod makes me smile! Least the Mods were listening hehe

I'm looking foreward to a comprehensive pack animals mod.

I think at least some of the random items we come across could be used for this. I want to see a black goat, creepy like the one from the VVitch, who eats all the rotten supplies. I think it would be funny if he 'multiplied' over time, Irongut mode lol. Maybe our donkey needs rope sometimes? For some of the other stuff like plates and spoons etc we should probably run into someone who's whole dream is to open a restaurant in Baldur's Gate with flatware from the far realms? Hehe. Something like that, all integrated with the many bags mods and inventory UI overhaul mods. That'd be cool!

Thanks for the tip, will look at this mod. Can you give a list of the mods you use for making the game more 5E RAW?

Right now my biggest complaint with modding is with multiplayer. I do not want mods for the multiplayer game we are running. I have seen a few work arounds but would love a single, comprehensive modding tool that had an easy option of enable or disable all mods for quick choosing of how you want to play.

5e Potions
https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/369

5e Spells
https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/125

Feats Extra FullGameReady
https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/167

Zerd's Rules As Written (RAW)
https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/1329

There was another feats mod but the author took it down so I removed it.

In addition to the Cleric mod in my previous post:

Bard Fixes and Tweaks
https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/866?tab=description

Sorcerer Progression as in PHB
https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/1574

I use this but I've not got anywhere near level 12 yet so I don't know how it will go at the higher levels. There's also a patch for it to work with the 5e Spells mod.
UnlockLevelCurve - Level 13-20
https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/377

The rest of my mods are mostly QoL plus a couple of cosmetic.

I don't play multiplayer so I can't offer any help there.

Duh! Just realised that Recruit Any NPC actually states "Make Full Custom Character Party" in the title.

A mod that turns the little goblin dude you get for Dark Urge into a camp follower, who sells vendor items that you miss out if you go full ham on being evil Durge would be awesome.

Found an interesting mod that makes Astarion's voice female. Would love to see a simple mod to change gender of the various companions with voice change. Would also love to see a proper voice done for players to use with Orcs and Dwarves

This mod is amazing! So much fun to play around with! It also shows just how easy it would have been for Larian to add an option to create custom companions, yet they, for some strange reason, chose not to. This mod saved my day! Now we will see what Larian has to offer us tomorrow for Patch 3.

Mod 1) Remove shared stash, so I can play the game again.
Mod 2) Allow me access to EVERY CREW MEMBER while in camp, seeing their inventory and comparing gear and managing stuff of EVERYONE, not only the 4 in party, without the need of constant leave/join

I want more faces for halflings, gnomes and dwarves. I like their faces well enough, but sometimes, I just want to look different from all the NPCs. And you mostly see elf, half elf, human and tiefling face mods.
And some more interesting clothing mods for the small races, I hate it, when you find a nice outfit on Nexus, that would look smashing on your gnome rogue, just to be only for the standard races. Thanks to Antemaxx with their Basket, who make a lot of the cooler looking armor like the city watch armor, Isobel's outfit, death Knight outfit... available for us shorties.

What I'd really like is some sliders for the face and body height and widths. Then the ability to change my eyebrows and I'd literally be set.
