About this mod
Updates English language dialog text and journal entries for Astarion, Gale, Halsin, Minsc and/or Wyll to use female pronouns, intended to compliment mods that gender swap them to female. Purely text only changes, no audio changes, no story changes.
- Permissions and credits
- Changelogs
Patch 8 compatible, only the 'Big' versions required updating. The small work without changes.
This mod is intended to compliment other mods that gender swap Astarion, Gale, Halsin, Minsc or Wyll, like
Femstarion
Gale Pal
Wylla
Halsina
Minsca
Woman's World
This will change in the English version of the game pronouns like he/his/him/man to she/her/woman, purely in the text shown on screen or in the journal. It has no effect on the audio/voice acting in the game. Please check mods like
Voice Swaps
to alter the audio to use feminine voices.
This mod also does not alter the appearance of the characters please use a mod like those linked above for this.
Please note this is not complete, it is a first pass so far that addresses most scenes until the end of Act 2, but it also changes many in the rest of the game notably journal entries that can be located by searching for 'Astarion' or 'Gale'. As I continue re-playing I will update as I observe new strings.
The different versions of the mod for different characters are completely independent of each other, you can use one and not the other or all as you wish. Similarly they are independent of any other mod and have no requirements.
All Version
The all version of the mod includes all the others in one mod, so updates all male companions. You should remove any of the character specific versions if you use this, but it will not break anything to leave it. Your load order will decide how things resolve out, so simplest remove the character ones!
Mod compatibility
I have a report of issues with Database Cleaner if you find problems with the text in your game try placing my mod(s) above this in your load order.
Any mod that changes dialogs can conflict with these depending on load order but in some cases they always take priority for an undetermined reason.
Big and Small Mod Versions
Each mod has two versions, only install one of these, and only install one Big version if you have multiple characters installed.
Big
This version is completely independent of other mods and will always work, no matter other mods or other character versions installed. Put this mod above any other of these mods in your load order.
Small
This version requires either a Big version for another character installed OR another mod that alters game text like
Show Approval Ratings
Astarion Post Ascension Dialogue Fix
In all cases put the Small version lower in your load order than the Big one or the above sort or mod.
Interestingly I find the small versions also work in Patch 8 with some other mods installed. For instance with only some voice changing mods they work, so try the small version, if they do not work try the big!
Please note the mod Over Explained Options in no longer usable as a Big replacement as it has been updated to work with the in game mod manager and this works text changes in a different way.
Installation
To install download the file or files you wish and use LaughingLeader's Baldur's Gate 3 Mod Manager to install. I have not tested this with Vortex. Only install one Big mod and do not also install the Small version of the same mod.
Notes:
My thanks to the mod Murica as it gave a clear guide how to do these sort of changes.
Feel welcome to post corrections or additions, otherwise I will update as my current play through progresses.
Developers of mods that alter the appearance of these characters are perfectly welcome to merge this mod into theirs!
