Not working? Delete everything but PlayerProfiles in C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3

- First follow one of the mod installations up above. Then download the multiplayer patch and unzip it.
- Drag and drop either your bg3.exe or bg3_dx11.exe file onto the PartyLimitBegonePatcher.bat file. It will create a backup for you.
- That's it! Enjoy the game.
Note: bg3.exe is used if vulkan is selected in the larian launcher and bg_dx11.exe if directx is selected instead. Windows defender might flag it on some systems but it's safe to use, nexusmods scans every upload. I changed it multiple times but after a while defender starts acting up again. So just allow it and move on.
- Grymforge Map transition: Reduce your party size to 4 members before sailing with the boat. If you already used it and your characters are stuck, dismiss the ones that are with you and sail back and forth to unstuck the rest. Note: After using the boat a timed quest is triggered and going to camp will progess it.
- Some quest or important items aren't registered correctly if they are carried by a fifth or higher party member. So make sure your first 4 party members carry any important items.
- Camp sleeping bug: Use one of the awake companions and talk to Lae'zel, use a camp chest or reduce your party size to 4 before resting.
- Some ingame events are simply hardcoded for 4 party members and will glitch out. This is usually solved by either dismissing the additional members/players or by teleporting back and forth.
- PLB is supported by both linux and mac but the MP patch is tricky to install, the easiest solution would be for a friend to send you their patched exe file. Otherwise you must edit the PartyLimitBegonePatcher.bat file with any text editor and change this line: Set "GetFileName=%~n1.exe" to something like Set "GetFileName=bg3.exe" then place your bg3.exe file next to it - in to the same folder and run the PartyLimitBegonePatcher.bat file with wine.
- PLB standalone works with console players if the hosting player is on PC. Crossplay with more than 4 players works if the console players join first and the PC players join via direct code/connection. The hosting player must enable "direct connection" in options -> gameplay for the direct code to show up in a crossplay lobby. To continue an existing crossplay save with more than 4 players you have to create a new fresh lobby have everyone join and start a new game. Once ingame you can load your old main save. Console players can't use direct connect so only 3 console players are supported by PLB.
Quick installation video guide (Standalone version):
Uninstall Standalone version:
- Delete the Mods folder inside your Data folder, that's it.
- Use your mod manager to uninstall the mod.
- Enable your SE console either manually or in your mod manager.
- Load up your save and run the following commands in the SE console to reset your party limit:
- Osi.SetMaxPartySizeOverride(4)
Osi.PROC_CheckPartyFull()
- Delete the patched exe file and restore your backup. The patcher creates a bg3.exe.backup (or bg3_dx11.exe.backup) file in your game folder, simply rename it back to bg3.exe. (or bg3_dx11.exe)
