Realms Restored 4.2 — Baldur's Gate 3

@CheesusCrust what do you think about turning Halsin into either an old hippie human druid or an elf ranger?

@CheesusCrust what do you think about turning Halsin into either an old hippie human druid or an elf ranger?

either works, but elf is more thematic. my point was that i ******* hate strong male body on races that are not associated with gymbro ***** routine (aka elfbloods)

a modder (surodmg) seems like have been working on a mod that would make bt4 work with her Love and Deepspace twink presets, i.e. making bt4 more like normal male body but with more pronounced muscles or something (there are no screenshots, so i can only guess), including vanilla armors refit. the author said she didn't abandon the mod and still works on it, even added it could've been released this month, but - of course - she got distracted/lazy/run over by a car/whatever

Closest thing to that right now would be this: https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/17360

Haven't used it, so I don't know how well it works with these mods and doesn't look like it would work with modded armor.

[CheesusCrust]

Good stuff. Except I would lay off Jaheira, except make her look a tad younger and give her a youthful body. The face is accurate to previous BG games.

forgot to add, there's only one mod that makes Jaheira's vanilla head younger, but it shrinks down her nose and makes her overly inflated african lips even bigger ._.

someone, just like me, tried using "Leilatha" preset on Jaheira from Toarie's New Presets because it does use Jaheira preset as base but with tweaks. but she turns from an african ***** into into a latina **** instead

[CheesusCrust]

you turned shadowheart into a ****

funny **** really, the current Shart preset i'm using didn't look **** on screenshots - up until i started ******* around with it in CC. these were the first screenshots i saw on the server advertising the mod, but it's my **** fault i didn't look further where it clearly showed it WAS indeed chingchong tainted

Guys this isn't the Sims 4 thread!

Something that may have gone under the radar -

The picture on the wall in Wyrm Rock fortress is clearly an asian woman. It's the one where she's in a forest, with a white dog right next to her. I've seen the picture in a few other places iirc. Never looked closely at it until today though.

Something else I've noticed is that a significant portion of the guards and "fists" are still women. To truly "degirlboss", imo you'd have barely any left. If any at all. I think the only place you might find them would be in high society, as those evil plotting scheming socialites. A woman is the leader of the thieves guild? There's just no way. She might be left alone as a skilled thief... maybe.

But I'm certainly not complaining, and thanks for all the hard work. I know modding can be a ton of work.

All those are already in the chopping block

Can you find us the name of this portrait? Easier to find and replace.

Camera angle fixes for non-midget body

Found another camera angle that needs to be fixed; it is most likely forgotten to be included in the changes.

In Moonrise Towers of Act 2, with the quest Decide Minthara's Fate, the mod converted deep gnomes Sumera and Jasin into drow but did not adjust the camera for them in the cutscene of them torturing Minthara.

There's an issue tracker tab on modhq now. If you would post this there, would be much appreciated.

Hi, I would like to play dark urge as a half orc, what kind of problems could I have with it? Is not clear from the description is it just immersion, or there could be something else?

Hi,

I’ve noticed that Aelen is still being referred to as “she” in some dialogue lines. Also, the face does not appear to have the angelic crack texture applied.

The "angelic" crack texture was removed in the RR patch because it looks ********.

Also these lines have been correctly fixed in No Alphabets. You are seeing this because you have a mod that shows you have "Show Approval Ratings in Dialogue Choices" installed.

Its overwriting No Alphabets. seeing Sir Aelen referred correctly is more important to you, then stick No Alphabets and RR in the very bottom of your load order. Only lines companion approval related to Aylin won't show up.

[bennylava]

Don't know if this would be possible. Might have to get permission or somehow recreate.

There's some really good mods for Karlach if it hasn't already been mentioned. Seems to me this would fit into the "Restored" idea of Realms Restored.

"Sweet Karlach" turns her back into a woman, which the female tieflings are supposed to be based on. She's no longer 6'5" tall (or whatever). And she starts as a sorceress instead. If that was combined with the alternate voice mod (link below), then she becomes female again. And not a dude with tits glued on.

It's called Voice Swaps 2 - Karlach on Nexus. Pretty cool cause if you really wanted the barbarian, you can just turn the character male and use the male voice.

Ahh got it, thanks for explaining. I didn’t realize that OIO - Overexplained Interaction Options mod was overwriting No Alphabets.. that makes sense now

Thank you for the clarification

Edit -

Moving the load order to the top for OIO – Overexplained Interaction Options fixed the issue and allowing your mod to override it resolved it.

Thank you again for identifying the problem and letting me know, I wouldn’t have figured it out at all lol

Something else I wanted to say on this topic...

Is the white Wyll mod voiced by someone? Sure sounds like it is compared to that Karlach voice mod on nexus. The Karlach mod just doesn't compare. Sounds like they used Ai from 2020 or something. Occasionally she'll make a sound like you're letting the air out of a balloon.

And her voice cracks and she mispronounces some words here and there. Like you're watching one of those Ai youtube videos. Sometimes when she's talking it will sound like she's using that auto tune thing. The one that so many goofball famous musicians are fond of.

There's a little left, but it seems like most of the emotion has been taken out of her lines. Something that should be said with more passion, just seems like she's rehearsing her lines for a play. But not White Wyll. He sounds a lot more like a real human. Maybe they just used better Ai for him?

Are you talking about Lancaster's Wyll Voice (viewtopic.php?t=1621-bg-legacy-voices-f ... r-s-gate-3) ?

that's a real good-looking and fashionable Tav/Durge
