Hello!

Hotfix #21 is here. This forum is sniping my posts again. I'll see if I could sneak it in.

Edit: It got through. The formatting is trash, but I don't care anymore after investing time that keeps getting thrown out the window.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Hello everyone,

A nice new hotfix is now available for Baldur’s Gate 3 on PC, PS5, and Mac, taking aim at several bugs, crashes, and blockers. We’ve also restored the ability to send items to specific camp companions while outside of camp - so feel free to send all your heavy items to Karlach for easy access. She can handle the strain, don’t worry.

Xbox players, Hotfixes #20 and #21 are still undergoing testing for your platform. We found a crash bug exclusive to your platform, so we’re taking the time to investigate and solve that issue, so your future adventures go a little smoother. Unfortunately, this means that currently, cross-saves will not be loadable on Xbox if they come from platforms that have already been updated to Hotfixes #20 or #21. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and are working to bring these hotfixes to Xbox as soon as possible.

As with previous updates, if you’re experiencing any issues after installing this latest hotfix, please check whether the issue still persists with all mods uninstalled. If you continue to experience this issue after uninstalling mods, please contact our support team and submit a full report to help us solve your issue.

We continue to work on further fixes and patches, but in the meantime, thank you for playing Baldur’s Gate 3!

CRASHES AND BLOCKERS

- Fixed a crash related to Avatars no longer being in the party.
- Fixed a potential blocker where having Gale (spoiler)
would kill your character, leaving you as a mote in the epilogue, unable to talk to anyone.
- Fixed a multiplayer bug causing your character to get stuck if you have the Eavesdrop option active and try to pick a lock at the same time as another player triggers a cinematic dialogue.
- Added some extra error checks for when the game fails to load a save.
- Fixed a crash during the transition between a dialogue with (spoiler)
and Shadowheart's dream about (spoiler)
- Fixed a crash when switching characters in Character Creation.

UI

- Made the 'Sell Wares' and 'Offer Wares' buttons work for all party members in a trading session instead of just the character with the wares in their inventory.
- Enabled multiselection in the Trade UI for keyboard and mouse. Also fixed 'Buy Back' prices.
- Fixed a bug causing party gold to initially be set to 0 when trading or bartering, giving you an 'Insufficient Gold' warning, no matter how much you actually had.
- Fixed 'Send To' not showing camp characters in the context menu when selecting multiple items.
- Selling a container to a trader and then swapping to a different character in the Trade/Barter UI no longer allows you to use ‘Take All’ to transfer the trader’s stock to your inventory.
- Restored the ability to send items to camp companions while outside of the camp. Many of you felt this was a nice quality-of-life feature, so it's back!
- Fixed a bug letting you place equipment into incompatible equipment slots. Please take those gloves off your feet.
- Fixed long Waypoint names sometimes clipping in the map on keyboard and mouse.
- Restored the 'Send To' and 'Pick Up' options in the context menu for items in the Traveller's Chest.
- Fixed a bug where rebinding the left mouse button would remove its functionality, preventing you from clicking.
- Fixed the 'Sort By' function not working properly for containers and inventories when sorting by the same filter twice in a row.
- Fixed the 'Sort By' function not working for corpse inventories.
- Fixed an exploit that could give you free items from a trader by quickly escaping the Trade UI while dragging an item to the Barter UI inventory.
- Fixed the Upcast view on the hotbar closing prematurely when you change your Upcast selection, forcing you to choose the maximum number of targets. Also fixed the hotbar incorrectly reflecting the current spell state after you change your Metamagic selection.

SCRIPTING

- Fixed a dialogue not triggering after (spoiler) if all the Gondians, including Zanner, died.
- Fixed a bug causing Minthara to keep repeating a greeting that also happened to be a nice little Act III spoiler.
- Fixed a bug causing the owlbear cub to disappear from camp. Little buddy just got lost.
- Fixed the crime dialogue for trespassing getting spammed beside the Steel Watch Foundry if you triggered the alarmed door and then saved the game within the forbidden area outside the Foundry.
- Fixed an edgecase where having Minthara around could teleport the party back to the Emerald Grove instead of the Lower City.
- Fixed Wyll's quest not starting when you recruit him by replacing another companion with him.
- Fixed the 'Enemy of Justice' condition applying to your player character upon reaching Créche Y'llek or the Shadow-Cursed Lands if you knocked out Minthara in a previous region, or upon reaching the Lower City if you killed a guard at Moonrise Towers and Araj Oblodra witnessed it.
- Fixed a bug where the game would not realise knocked-out Minthara had been defeated in Act I if you took a Long Rest between knocking her out and defeating the other goblin leaders.

GAMEPLAY

- You can no longer save your game while the credits are rolling. This is to prevent issues with the game not knowing which state to load.

Thanks for the update. Why are people saving during the credits?

Can't say for sure, but I'll take a guess. Cheating achievements for a game is done through save files (not mods, as some devs seem to think). A complete game would have all the achievement requirement boxes checked (provided the player met those requirements), and giving the save file to someone else would let them get those achievements without actually doing them.

the game can be set to auto save every X... that could just happen to be during the creadit roll

True.

Looks like the OFFLINE patch is now available.
And Mac too! Wow!

Could you please give link to GOG hotfix #21?
a heads up that this is already out of date and you need the new 31mb download to get the current build
We’re dropping a small fix on PC today, with Mac and PS5 to follow shortly, that should resolve a crash occurring for some players in crowded areas!

So how do we get the newest update? Galaxy keeps saying there's no update available, and I haven't even installed hotfix 21 (4.1.1.4890942)
Apparently Steam has the update already.
on Galaxy PC its already out... a few hours after the hotfix

on Mac or PS you wait at least 6 weeks... you know the drill

Pc offline sould be out by next week

Xbox = God knows
Hmm ?

Next week ?

I'm downloading the offline PC version as we speak ? Well, write.

Maybe I can detect a hint of sarcasm there.
After the update the game crashes when running from GOG Galaxy on Mac... (on my M2 and M1) :/

(4.1.1.4890942) is hotfix 21 and that is the current limit of Gog off line installs but 4.11.4900808 is the current lastest build and its only on Galaxy or steam PC [for now]

@googlarz yes its a know issue reported to Larian about two minites after hotfix 21 went live and one of the things the new file fixes... the cause appears to be autosave firing off during the credits which then means it has not act 1, 2 or 3 tag when loading
Aaaaah ok thanks for the explanation.

The official forum only has hotfix 21, too.

Wow!! The offline installer for Mac for patch 4.1.1.4900808 is available. This is not normal.

Once again the GoG naming is confusing me.

baldur_s_gate_3_english_BG3_MacOS_v4_1_1_4900808_Gold__Main_Task_OSX_CL_4_1_1_4902952_.pkg

No PC yet! Probably soon.

edit: the offline patch for pc is now available
