Sweet. Let’s get a cross platform multiplayer mod!
- If the game is cross platform anyway do you need a mod for multiplayer?
One of the two games I'm glad I bought at full price. Awesome.
- What's the other one?
  
  Elden Ring
  
  Probably elden ring or witcher 3
Cross platform modding would be amazing. Mods on consoles will such a boon for the longevity of this game.
- Gonna be unlikely for sony probably.
Receding hairline Astarion is a huge mood
I'd settle for keeping Mac/Win versions in sync first!
Does this mean it's finally going to be less of a pain to mod on linux? I still can't get it to work and I've tried every method I could find
- I’ve recently had success with minimal (read: some) pain using BG3ModManager.
  
  Unfortunately trying to play multiplayer gave me the dreaded GustavDev version mismatch, but that’s not specific to Linux.
  
  I really can't wait until linux gets a proper mod loader
- I'm using vortex through steamtinkerlaunch, and it's working as expected. If you haven't tried that, give it a go.
  
  I tried vortex through Lutris, I'm not so experienced with steam tinker launch though
  
  Out of curiosity, in your opinion if I'm trying to start the game and quickly determine if it's properly modded or not what mod should I test?
  
  Also no luck so far with steam tinker launch
- Might try asking the several Linux communities, they might have some tips based on your specific setup, if you're cool sharing log dumps and config files.
MAP MAKER PLS
Nice, can we finally get rid of the dice roll animations?
- You can skip those. I’m not sure what the keyboard command is, but on controller, hit triangle or Y when you roll. It goes straight to the final result.
  
  You can skip them but still have to let it pop up, I've also been put off by this. Also most of the arguments I've had against me when I've asked about mods for this are people saying things like "but it's dnd, you're supposed to have the dice" which is fair but I disagree, BG3 isn't a ttrpg and the animation showing up is immersion breaking.
  
  I just click again right after clicking the dice to roll them, it skips the animation and just gives me the finished roll, complete with added bonuses.
  
  Hold enter!
