depends on the mod manager you are using. if you're using vortex, click mod manager download. if you're using bg3mm, then click manual download, and then import it (drag the zip file into bg3mm).
if you're using the igmm...don't. this type of mod doesn't work with it anyways.
Can we just assume I don't understand what you're saying and just give me some basic instructions i.e. download the file, open up mod manager, put the file in this area, etc.?
BG3MM, "File" (top left corner) - Import mod - Go to your downloads folder - click this rar file. It's an override so you don't have to drag it from the right side column.
I hope so, getting ready to dive in and test it out :)
***Yep, greets work as intended in game! This mod is no longer a "fix" but I'll leave it up for those running older versions and those who prefer this greeting order and having "Blade of the Frontiers" greet play more than once/"Go ahead" play under looser restrictions.
Could you make one specifically for romance? I'm romancing Wyll now in patch 7 hotfix 28, and he still has the "well met" dialogue. When I tried this mod, it just gave me the "Always good to talk my friend" which is incorrect for romance.
thanks for this! Larian is aware of his bugged greetings (they said so when i reported the bug waaaay back when patch 7 came out for PC) I've no idea why they didn't fix it with the recent hot fix when patch 7 came to console????? You would think they would've, but I digress. I'm still going to hold off on romancing him though until they actually fix him... hopefully that will be soon.
i have to ask, is his greeting bugged after Mizora joins camp? I've noticed in Rivington before Mizora shows up he'll have his friendly greeting "always good to talk my friend" but then as soon as she does her little camp scene & Wyll has to make a choice his greeting then changes to "lets talk". Its always been like that for me before the patch even broke his greetings
I don't believe the switch between "Always good to talk, my friend." and "Let's talk." is actually a bug. They're both listed as high approval greetings. As for why he doesn't switch in between the 2, I'm not certain. It may be intentional for Larian to have him stick to predominantly 1 greeting after the story event.
interesting! I suppose your right, it just seems like hes lowkey at low approval when he uses that. I wish they did use both greetings though because you only get the friend greeting for a few long rests while 'lets talk' will be used for the rest of game.
I reported it too back then and got the same answer from them, I was so disappointed to see they didn't fix it in the latest hotfix (same with some bugged and incorrectly triggered romance-related party banter that I also reported then btw)
Yeah, the "Let's talk" greeting is flagged to trigger after the Mizora encounter and event in Act 3. Which is unavoidable for most people. Once I get this next update out I could see if it is possible to have both greetings cycle. It should be.
it's not a new greeting, it's a bug. this greeting is only supposed to trigger when you have negative approval with wyll. larian is aware of this but they've failed to fix it so far
Yes, it's a pretty annoying bug. At first, I didn't recognize it as a bug because I was early game with neutral approval. Genuinely believed it was just a new line they slipped in. After playing with it for 90 hours it got old lol.
I've been fixing the 1.1 ver, to release as the next update and it has been pretty entertaining to test out how the different flags and nodes interact.
At one point I had "The Blade of Frontiers" line at a constant play. I assume the messy state has to do with all the additional flags/banter they enabled for Patch 7.
i'm sorry to bother you, but i can't make it work... i followed your instructions and verified multiple times that everything was done right, but i surely missed something :(
thanks for your answer!! • i downloaded the version 1.2 • i use BG3MM (but also tried the manual method) • and yes, i see the mod in the override section
Okay, did you have any other version downloaded at one point? Can you do me a favor and just permanently delete the pak. Then download Version 1.0 and import it with the BG3 Modmanager? Save and export settings just in case.
Also, in game, what Act are you in and what is your approval rating with Wyll?
i downloaded the first version a few days ago and didn't manage to make it work either :( i followed your instructions but unfortunately the greeting is still the same (i'm currently in Act 1, and my approval rating with Wyll is at 79)
Do you have other mods installed that affect Wyll? I'm trying to understand where the issue lies because version 1.0 and 1.2 definitely work (imperfectly). But maybe you have another mod that affects the same base game files.
Okay, thanks for uploading. If you'll give me a little time I'd like to go thru and see if any could be conflicting and I'll get back to you if I notice anything.
I believe it is the "Brightest Star" mod. They both override the same lsf file. When I enabled it, greetings don't work at all. As for the other mods, they're completely fine.
Thank you so much for this fix. I really needed it; I was about to pause my playthrough until Larian fixed Wyll's greetings. Do you happen to have any idea how to fix Lae'zel for the same reasons? It seems Lae'zel has the same problem as Wyll—she is using the low approval greeting all the time. Could you point me in the right direction? Thanks again.
I'm not certain what the other mod does as of yet (but I will look) - this mod allows Wyll's greetings to play at the expense of the "You've got something to say?" line. Romance, Act 1, 2, 3 neutral and positive greetings all work.
1.1 update worked to get the "You've got something to say?" line adjusted as well via a different fix, but it needs more work.

Did you use the BG3 ModManager or did you drop the pak in the Mods folder manually?
Do you see "Wyll Greeting Fix" in the brown override section in the ModManager?
• i downloaded the version 1.2
• i use BG3MM (but also tried the manual method)
• and yes, i see the mod in the override section
