Realms Restored 4.2 — Baldur's Gate 3

[Silver]

The discrepancy in the skin tone of Viconia probably happened because the author of edits from Nexus really, REALLY likes using Re-Shade in the screenshots, which doesn't represent how characters are going to look in game. We're gonna drowify Viconia better.

[logincrash]

No you colossal ******. That book ruined all the BG1-2 characters by doing character assassinations and depicting them completely different compared to the games.

► Show Spoiler

How did it ruin them? You realize this book was written by the original creator of the Baldur's Gate games, you stupid ******? Your playthrough isn't canon. Just because you played the game 20 years ago doesn't mean you know better than the original creator and get to decide what is and isn't canon. Most of what happens in the games is not canon to the official FR timeline, and this book isn't even part of the official WOTC 5e sourcebook line. It was published under the DMs Guild fan content brand and is basically non-canon.

depicting them completely different compared to the games

There's no consistency to how they're depicted in the games and other material.

Nah, books written after the fact can be safely disregarded.

Good news, the consensus is as I said:
"Oops we forgot to edit viconia after stealing her. We will fix her skin tone."

das rite
you're welcome

Big fan of this type of mods, keep up the good job guys!

[OtoshiGami]

Is there a list of cosmetic mods that this one uses and can this one replace them for other dependent mods?
For instance "Another Face for Lae'zel" by bk0n9 uses "New Character Creation Presets WIP".

But if this mod has the relevent files then could it just replace the presets mod as a whole for the Laezel mod?

This sounds like a heads question for our pro Head Appropriator @loregamer

But in terms of hair and skin color, I recall porting:

Astralities fantasy skintones
Astralities haircolors
Astralities haircolorsv2
Astralities naturalskintones
Astralities wondrous skintones

That just about answers my question for now - This isn't a replacer but it uses those assets to make base game changes and additions. I have a select few of Astralities' CC mods and a few of the bigger ones that I'll keep around:

Faces of Faerun
New Character Creation Presets
Tav's Hair Salon
Vemperen's Other Heads Repaired
Vessnelle's Hair Collection

Mystra (Midnight) kind of looked like Yennefer in 2e.

Why'd they give her a Resting ***** Face

Slept with too many mages.

Downloads are uncapped.

But I thought Platinum would be like a magic button where everything just works

I just tried it, instantly maxed out my bandwidth. Try switching your VPN's server.

[Reichspepe]

Don't use one. Being serious I have no clue wtf is going on, as the speed was always fine before. Just today the site seems to have some problems for me

That is the most offensive thing someone said to me on this site

Can you make the image even bigger for Platinum HQ? It's still too small for me

Sure, give me a minute and I'll scale it to 8192x8192

Looks normal to me. Are you a human female?

[Valter]

In character creator when I click on human it shows black person by default. I found it kinda weird, especially if you consider the fact that vast majority of playerbase is white so creators should cater mostly towards white people (and most people play as humans btw). Does this mod changes that too?

Someone answer this man

edit:

This mod takes care of that. FULLY!

Vanilla Heads (unless from Chult or Kara-Tur) are added back to the CC selection, so you can still access it when making a Tav / Durge. [NOT IMPLEMENTED YET]

some of the vanilla heads I liked - any idea when they'll be added back to CC?

also just curious but the mod suggests to play as durge and human or half-elf for best narrative coherency, was the story really made around durge and tav is really just durge content excluded? does tav have nothing unique about playing as a custom character?

[orinEsque]

Can someone confirm whether you can change hireling bodytypes or race? I validated my game files and ran the game with no mods and i can't change it

[SniperChris]

This mod is so good, you got me to reinstall Baldur's Gate 3. And now, I have to relearn how to put mods on this piece of garbage.

The game was indeed designed for Durge. Only thing unique about custom character is 2 more lesbians couple that should have been dead.

[Tzeentch Cultist]

Made an account here just to say thank you for the mod. Been putting off playing BG3 again for a while now ever since I first saw mentions of this mod being made in the Better Ascetics thread. Great to see it finally released.

It's also been incredibly funny seeing the immense hatred (p)Redditors have for this mod.

[Magick]

The one on the right is a clear improvement to the left & middle. :weeb:

The right one ain't bad! Looks very goddess'y. The smaller mouth looks nicer than the other two too, in comparison.

[rusty_shackleford]

Original looks better you philistines

[ArcaneLurker]

Original is mid, at best.
