For People having issues getting the Potion to appear in the chest. When starting new Game.
Here is what you need to do.
1 You need to go in game and start up a new game in the tutorial area and make a clean unmodded save here. I recommend saving before you climb up the two walls towards shadow hearts cell.
2 Close the game then you go back out to vortex and install the mods you want. Then restart the game. Then load up the unmoded save in the tutorial area with the mods active.
Sadly doesnt work after patch 8. I initially thought it was because of the playable beastfolk mod but its just game updates. Would appreciate an update at your earliest convenience if possible.
It doesn't work after patch 8. The potion is in the tutorial chest. I can drink it too. But it doesn't add the passives. Is there any chance you could update it? I'm addicted to your mod. I hate Larian's ant-sized characters. Pleaseeee I have no idea how I can enjoy my game without this potion :D
Hi! I’m not entirely sure if this issue is related to your mod, but I thought I’d ask...
I tested the potion on Karlach, but it didn’t give me the result I was looking for, so I removed the mod via BG3 Mod Manager. I made sure not to save the game with the mod active and also deleted it from the mods folder. However, now Karlach appears larger in kissing cutscenes—both the native ones and those from the kissing mod—causing the animations to not work properly anymore. This issue only affects Karlach, Gale, for instance, seems completely fine, which is why I suspect it might be related to this mod.
After reinstalling the mod and trying the -50% option for her without success, I removed it again and used your Potion of Size Category Adjustment (1 down) on her, but unfortunately, that didn’t resolve the issue either.
I haven’t installed any other size- or kissing-related mods, so I’m not sure what else could be causing this. Would you happen to have any suggestions? Should I install all three of your potion mods, and if so, in which order should I load them? Or is there perhaps a way to reset everything back to default settings? 😅
Size category potion mod doesn't change the visual model scale effect. Its more of a Character sheet change only. Where you are now categorized as a large creature etc. (Doesn't happen automatically by increasing weight or size in game)
The idea for these three potions mods. Was if you pick a weight that makes you beyond 200KG. You can use that potion of size category to become Large in category, then use potion of scaling if you want the visual size to be bigger aswell.
I am not sure if you turned off the scale potion passive on karlach before you disabled it or not. You said it Didn't happen to gale etc. So i think maybe something you did differently there. I haven't seen this issue before so i dont know.
I know that the potion only gives you the passives, which in turn allows you to scale a character when active. So maybe the passive has to be turned off before you save then uninstall it. Cant guarantee it will work though, but maybe it will.
(if you got the time, i want you to try this) 1 install it 2 activate the same size you used before uninstalling it. 3 disable that size passive after having activated it once (check if model goes back to normal) 4 save game and quit 5 uninstall mod 6 load up the save and check if the ingame cutscenes and issues persists
Unfortunately, I’m encountering an error when trying to launch the game after uninstalling the mod. (First, I tried just disabling it in BG3 Mod Manager, but the game wouldn’t launch. Then I deleted .pak from the mods folder, but it still didn’t launch.) The error message says: "Savegame load failed. Error code: 302."
I’m curious why this effect lingers on Karlach even in older save files, with all newly added mods switched off 🤔 Also, it’s strange that she looks normal in dialogues but appears huge in two out of three native kissing animations. (All three worked properly before)
I even tried casting the Reduce spell on her (in a save file with no mod installed but with the size issue still present) 😅 Unsurprisingly, that didn’t work
OMG, I’M TERRIBLY SORRY, IT WASN'T THIS MOD'S ISSUE The lingering effect confused me so much that I kept exploring and just then remembered loose files from Karlach Date Scene Fix (Animation Swap) 🙈 I'm such a klutz! Your mod is perfectly fine, and you're amazing for responding so quickly 🙈 Sorry again and please don’t hate me, I have great plans on using your other mods in my next playthrough 🥺 Wishing you a calm and lovely rest of the weekend 😓🌺
Its okay, my weekend is good, its no bother to take a little time to help people out. But i am glad my mod wasn't causing the issues and that you were able to fix it. Makes me able to rest easier this weekend. So i wish you a calm and good weekend back also :).
I'm having a minor issue. I can obtain the potion and use it as intended, however, any subsequent spawning of the tutorial chest does not spawn more of the potion(s) I have installed (but other things in the chest do respawn). Are we only supposed to have 1 of each potion or is this a bug?
Its actually me who has made it only one. I assumed most people would want it for their main character only. Any specific size you wanted and quantity?
Is it possible to make them just respawn on each opening of the tutorial chest? I have several mods that seem to do that. As for which size, right this moment the 44% increase is my fav, but I'd love for all for some upcoming runs!
i have a weird bug. after loading save file my character start to grow without stop, so it takes just a few seconds for my character to become almost as huge as nautiloid
I think it'd be nice if all options were available in a single file. I'd like to be able to swap between sizes to see what fits the character I build, rather than committing to a single one on load in.
Ive remade the mod kind off. So i made all sizes accessible through 1 potion that gives you all the sizes as different toggle passives.
Now instead of one potion its now a big stack off 20. So now you can pass it around if you wish,. if you want several characters to have it also. Should be enough. Hope this is acceptable for you :).

The potion should appear in the chest then
I tested this method myself and it worked.

I also made the one potion into a big stack off 20. So now you can pass it around if you wish.

Ah, I wish there were a way to keep the effect in cutscenes—it would be so useful for the kissing mod 👀So i made all sizes accessible through 1 potion that gives you all the sizes as different toggle passives.
