And that is pretty darn amazing eh?

Interesting, some aspects of what you described I don't even completely understand, but that's cool too. More to learn!

Which parts didn't you understand ? I'm in Act 2 @ level 8 IIRC
Limited party size - usually just 2, my character (Gloomstalker) and the Councillor Florrick clone (wizard). I only recruited Shadowheart and Wyll this time - ignored Gale, Karlach & Lae'zel. Knocked out Minthara at the goblin camp (non-lethal melee weapon) instead of killing her.
(This means she survives and ends up in the Moonrise Prison where I freed her & added her as companion).
So I'll switch between these 4 characters = Shadowheart - Shar/Nightsong; Wyll rescue father---that will be difficult with small party; Minthara because I've never had her as companion. In Act 2 I have Halsin at camp just to do the rescue. May ignore Jaheira/Minsc this time for Act 3 - Minsc is an annoying quest - but I might need to do it just for levelling up.

That was most of it :) There are a variety of ways to play that people have mentioned that I haven't looked into. It really is pretty fascinating how they managed to put it all together so well with so much variety.

Non-lethal weapons for Minthara! Of course! I killed her, but I didn't really want to. I'm playing a Drow. Things just got out of hand!! ;)
 
Finally caved and grabbed this. Any recommendations for the included mods?

(Weightless consumables is calling out to me.... :) ).

First page comes up with a UI mod but it sounds like it's no longer being supported?

Will go through my mods and refresh my memory on mods that might be of use/interest. Will post later. It's been a while since I've played. Ran the mod manager and it looks like all my mods have been disabled - possibly the game updated? Not sure.
EDIT: Mods were disabled because I had started an Honour Run... not very far into the game. I plan to wait til next year when they come out with a new patch before continuing.

Suggest you start small with essentials and check the game is running okay.

What mod manager were you planning on using? For this one, I'd suggest BG3MM - BG3 Mod Manager.

You will need to use the Script Extender. Once installed with BG3MM, SE will update itself as needed.

There's TransmogEnhanced that's useful if you don't like the looks of some of the armour/clothing or even weapons - you can apply effects from one item and apply it to something that looks more appealing.

EDIT: There's mod called TutorialChestSummoning which you would have to install if it's a requirement by other mods. There's been several mods out that use this mod to place items in a chest that you find on board the Nautilus (near where you first encounter Shadowheart).

https://bg3-mod-manager.com/getting-started/

Note that the in-game mod manager created by Larian may have some mods that Nexus doesn't. IMO, there's two caveats with the in-game mod manager. There are a few in-game mods worth considering like infinite arrows.

Edit - website is mods.io
1) The in-game mods are loaded from another website, forget the name, but it ends in .io - DON'T subscribe to it, at least until the game is running okay. You don't have to subscribe to use the mods. When subscribed, it will auto reload any in-game mods even if you removed them. No idea why it does that... You have to unsubscribe, then remove any in-game mods you want, then restart.

2) I find it's a little messy running two mod managers.


Check the upload date AND the Update Date if any, Nexus Mod. There's some old mods that have not been updated that work fine, but there's some that don't. Check comments to see any problems people are experiencing.

Some mods require other mods to work, (and some of those depend on yet other mods) ALWAYS check the requirements AND comments/bugs section.
