Version 3.0 is up! There are 2 standard versions The difference is the raw dialog and timeline files they were generated against. You can use either version in either patch! The version generated on patch 7 will include Lord Astarion's new emotions in patch 7. You can use this in patch 6 or 7! The version generated on patch 6 will maintain Lord Astarion's old emotions from patch 6. You can use this in patch 6 or 7!
New in 3.0! - tons of voiced dialog sourced from all over the game - shadowheart's epilogue hug, but it's buggy - 4 gale's last kisses - all of the above are nested under one dialog option "I need a moment for the two of us"
Existing content - 4 alt kisses and 4 reverse bodytype 1 kisses - gale's epilogue hug - emotion mapping (more evil smiles, etc) - 4 alt kisses and 1 hug for spawn astarion
I created a bunch of other versions based on user feedback. They can be found under Optional or Misc files. Use only one of the versions.
MOXI_NightingalesLordAstarion_v3_using_patch7-noemotionchanges This is the same as the standard versions above but without emotion changes for Lord Astarion. So these hugs and kisses will use the emotions in the original kisses of those companions. For those who don't want him evil smiling all the time.
MOXI_NightingalesLordAstarion_v3_replaceronly This version has nothing else except straight up replacing Lord Astarion's 4 kisses with 2 spawn and 2 gale kisses.
MOXI_NightingalesLordAstarion_misc_cleanpatch6files This version is a clean backup of patch 6 files. There is nothing here but the original patch 6 scene.
MOXI_NightingalesLordAstarion_misc_smileoverride Not a version of this mod. This is a replacer file for Astarion's grinch smile to be his evil smile instead. Can be used with the above or by itself. Example: https://imgur.com/a/TQ4a9KW
Hi there Moxifer3! I wanted to say thank you for your work on this mod. It brings a lot more joy to my AA run. I wholeheartedly believes AA loves Tav, and it's nice to experience a range of romantic moments with him. You did an amazing job!
HI! Just wanted to say thank you for the mod, one can feel the amount of work put in it! In my run Astarion has been already ascended when I"ve installed the mod, and it works great :) From all the phrases only "I need a moment for the two of us" is not translated in my language, but I think it makes her stand out this way :D Everything else is translated and voicedover, and it was a delight to hear this hidden phrases and get the different kisses.
It's my first mod from Nexusmod and I've struggled witht the installation, but in the end that's what I did: 1) Downloaded BG3 Mod Manager 2) Downloaded The Mod Fixer -> copypasted the .pak file in the Mods folder of the game -> the Mod Fixer appeared in the Overrides in the window of the Mod Manager 2) Downloaded the mod MOXI_NightingalesLordAstarion_v3_using_patch7-noemotionchanges -> copypasted the .pak file in the Mods folder of the game -> the mod appeared in the Overrides in the window of the Mod Manager -> I klicked "Export" just in case 3) The mod worked!
While I was just thinking about the possibility of all this and was googling the request - what program to open such and such files, you have already done everything) This is so wonderful! I feel like the universe has decided in advance to give me a gift with your hands))) You are lovely!
By the way, since you want to be a know-it-all.. In your words... "in the DND universe", all vampires are canonically evil. Even spawns, yes. I'm sure you can find that out with a simple google search :) Maybe before lecturing others actually double check your facts, lol.
first. there's no need to be rude if you dislike the mod. if you dislike it, just look the other way, no one is forcing you to use it second. why would anyone admit that ascending him is wrong? it's just a choice you can make in a videogame, no one needs anyone's approval to pick and enjoy it. and especially no one has to be bullied for making that choice. it's as valid as any other choices you can make in the game third. Astarion is never a "true vampire". in both endings he's either vampire spawn or vampire ascendant. according to dnd lore 'vampire spawn' and 'true vampires' are both canonically evil, while 'vampire ascendant' is Larian's homebrew, a completely new creature. 'Vampire ascendant' is not a part of the dnd lore, so stop making up "losing his soul" stuff, it's only your headcanon
It's both sad and pathetic that these people who decided to bully others over their choices in a video game literally have nothing better to do with their life than telling others how to live and enjoy theirs and how they should play their video games.
Their life must truly suck or is just not interesting enough that they have to try and manipulate and harrass others.
A video game is there to be enjoyed. True it can give important messages, but not if it is purpusefully harming and triggering people who even get PTSD from this, making them remember horrible events in their past! One person of the whole team is literally pushing their own opinion on their player base, which they even admitted in an interview. And that is an absolute no-go!
But the worst thing really is that harrassers or just simply the parrots of the internet keep bullying others over this, just repeating the same words they heard over and over again, causing even more mental health problems and they don't even care if it might harm anyone, lacking empathy.
Yeah! Plus if these people actually put the time wasted complaining and bullying into learning something, well, who knows, maybe they'd soon be able to also make the mods they wanted for themselves instead, of having to cry on the pages of those mods they wish were different 🤔 there's only a limited time we are allowed on this planet, why waste it being resentful or jealous? That's so unrewarding.
I am not since I'm hopeless with using the toolkit but if anyone wants to do it they can feel free to do it without my permission and just link my mod.
Are you playing female astarion? That's exciting!! There's a female astarion mod (astaria I think) that says they edited astarion's animations to line up for bt1. Give kisses a try with that mod? I'm not playing the game right now and don't know when I'll get back to it at the moment (and im traveling for a while but I can come back to this in April if the other mod doesn't work out, let me know).
Is it meant to stop working if you sleep with Halsin? Because it stopped as soon as I did even though Astarion was cool with it. Rolled back the save and turned him down instead, and then came to see if anyone else had mentioned it. I've used this mod every playthrough (I adore it) but this was the first time I've ever said yes to Halsin. EDIT: It seems not to related to be this mod, since removing something else fixed it. Still not sure what the other mod had to do with Halsin/Astarion at all, but all's well that ends well!
For some reason it just doesn't work. I have all the dialogue options, but nothing happens and even with the happy facial expressions version - it doesn't work either. Previous version of that mod worked perfectly, new one doesn't.
Yes. I deleted Astarion DIalogue Ksses Fix mod. I replaced Happy Faces with that version you mentioned. Nothing helps. Even the last update of happy faces doesn't work, only the one that named "all in one". I tried everything. Only dialogue options, but no action, camera just shows my Tav until I skip it, then Astarion says "You are perfect everytime" and that's it for every option.
hey joy its been months but I fixed me having the same problem as you. I needed to manually extract the .pak file and then paste them in where they needed to go by hand. Suddenly, boom, everything working. I had to do the same thing with the happy expressions mod before some months ago, so i'm glad I remembered my post over on that mod and put that fix into work over here.
How do I enable this mod in the game? No new lines and phrases have appeared. After ascending, my Tav had a vanilla conversation with Astarion. If Tav refuses the bite, Astarion breaks the romance. If Tav agreed to the bite, spent the night with Astarion, but refused to kneel in the morning, Astarion breaks the romance. BG3ModManager sees the mod and marks it as active. I put it up before visiting the Cazador Palace.
Even before you ascend you should see extra dialog options in partnered dialog. Spawn should have extra kisses too. Do you not see this before ascension?
if you want to stay with aa you have to kneel or set a flag to stay partnered.
What is "set a flag" and how to do it? I had an romance with Spawn Astarion in the first part long before the party in the camp and new phrases + kisses appeared in dialog with spawn before visiting Kazador's palace, there are also in old saves, everything is fine here. Thank you! Your mod is cool.

The difference is the raw dialog and timeline files they were generated against. You can use either version in either patch!
The version generated on patch 7 will include Lord Astarion's new emotions in patch 7. You can use this in patch 6 or 7!
The version generated on patch 6 will maintain Lord Astarion's old emotions from patch 6. You can use this in patch 6 or 7!

Is there a chance on you planning to upload it to the in-game mode manager? *console player here*
one thing you can try is use the modders multitool to unpack the pak file and install this mod as loose files
when you say the last update of happy mod, you mean the version without compatibility for my mod is also broken?
how many other mods do you have installed?
if you want to stay with aa you have to kneel or set a flag to stay partnered.
