It seems like loads of things got broken with the different patches.
I will try to find some time to update the mod with patch 6 (It might be a breaking change update that might not be retrocompatible), if anyone is willing to help maintain the mod my DMs are open since I've been failing to allocate time to it.
Important infos follow + General guidance for the post tab of the mod below * Release v0.3.1 is the latest to use ; * fix(act-3): Monk Amulet doesn't interact with its related quest anymore * If you need the barrel outside of act 1 you can install the Tutorial Chest Summoning mod ; The barrel is included in the tutorial chest.
=================================================================== General Guidance for posts: Alright fellas, before we continue that mess of people with PEBKAC installation issues creating a new post every hour that just says "Barrel doesn't appear" could we set some ground rules ?
- If you're encountering an issue with the installation then it's most likely you didn't install the mod correctly since of the 33 000 unique DLs you're not a lot to complain of an install issue
- If the mod is clashing with some quests / story breaking ... game related issues etc.. Could you please open a ticket in the bugs tabs of the mods with the details: Where you're at in the game, What quest broke etc; If you can give the full details of what item broke that quest it's nice, if you can't I'll try to figure it out
As of now the mod will always spawn all the equipment of the game and I will try to add the possibility to exclude some quest items or publish a version with 0 quest items later on
=================================================================== I've pretty much reach my limit with you guys' comments ; if you just plan on asking me how to uninstall the mod like so many posts, please don't. I'll be starting to lock threads that bring nothing (Barrel is empty, not clickable, uninstalling issues ; and most posts that are from people who didn't either read the description or this very sticky post before posting).
Patch Six was released and mods available, like this one, have some issues. While This mod worked perfectly up until Patch Six. Patch Six and subsequent hotfixes have issues with the mod. My first issue was Nettie, the nice druid who gives you poison, is frozen. As I play through a fresh playthrough i will update this post. This is the first issue with the mod but sadly not the last.
I maybe fund a way to fix quest bugs. !!-I'm not sure as I'm still on act 1 on my buggy save-!!
Step by step :
-Make a lot of save, just in case. -Install bg3-burner - https://github.com/blaksheep/bg3-burner -Get a Burner Chest Conjuring Ring (see the github tutorial for that) -Move every items of the barrel to the burner chest -Destroy the burner chest -Save & quit -Uninstall the mod and install the tutorialchest version -Load your save - You should no longer have the barrel and the items should be gone so maybe it'll fix the quests.
(It's still crashing the save if you uninstall the mod completly)
Confirmed - this works but you have to make sure ALL items from the mod are transferred to the burner chest before destroying it. Then save the game, remove this mod to test it worked, save again, then remove the burner chest mod. If you remove both mods at the same time it still breaks the game.
I installed it via Vortex and changed the pak file inside the mod with your file. But its still not showing in the ingame Modlist neither does it work any advice?
Edit: Nvm i did fix it myself if you installed it like i did desripe above download the 3.0 version ( goratsh and orin) and just change the og mod file with the one posted above. (It still doesnt show in the ingame Mod Manager List but works ingame).
Don't make it up. I just checked it for viruses (virustotal). virustotal
You can do it yourself if you don't believe me. I just deleted the folder from the mod and packed it back, how can a virus appear there at all? Stop misleading people. Clean your computer.
Once I copied the PAK file to the correct directory and loaded my save file at the wilderness camp, where am I supposed to find this so called barrel ?
Do not use this mod it WILL break your game because if an item exist in this barrel the game will soft lock many quests and proceed to keep you locked out of things. You can't lift the shadow curse, you can't proceed with the main questline, you can't free orpheus, etc etc. Avoid this mod or only use it as a test for builds but once you add this mod to your save you are doomed and have to revert back to an older save if you wish to remove this mod
I've never had any issues with it doing any of that. From what I can gather that only happens if you take everything (because some stuff is quest marked and triggers various things) take specific quest related items or use a summon tutorial chest mod (I think that counts as taking everything into your inventory)
My experience is the same as SeventhCaliber7. I have never once had an issue with this mod, and that's regardless of whether I pull all items out or not. I typically run around 40-50 mods and this sucker always gets loaded up first without issue. Unfortunately, Patch 7 broke this mod so now I'm looking for a replacement. Another post said that it was Mod Fixer, so perhaps the mod author can simply remove Mod Fixer and update. I have a ton of script mods that work beautifully right now, fresh into Patch 7, so I'm sure it's a simple fix.
I also used this mod (tutorial chest only) since it was released with no issues, but it having Mod Fixer on Patch 7 seems to have done it in. Just posting here hoping the author will see it and update. This mod is INVALUABLE for testing builds w/ specific gear w/o having to start a new playthrough. The best outcome would be porting it to the official mod manager, but idk anything about how these mods are made and if that's even possible.
Or just don't use quest locked items before you do the quest.
I have used this mod for over a year with no issue. Mind you I only use it whenever I want Gale's origin ring and in rare cases where I want my characters to wear the same thing after I get it through legitimate means.
The mod works just fine. I had to redownload my entire mod list, this one included, so consider this a test.
I run it at the top of my loading order, in patch 7. If the barrel is unselectable try to long rest and check it after. If the barrel stays unselectable then simply reload your game and it should fix the problem.
If for whatever reason the mod still doesn't work then it's something else in your loading order clashing with it.

Can someone explain what I am supposed to do to find this so called barrell with all the weapons and armor contained in it? I have copied the .PAK file to the correct directory and restarted the game and loaded my game at the wilderness camp, but I do not see any barrel ??
This mod is completely f**ked. The barrel doesn't come up as selectable and when I removed the mod it dumped every item onto the floor and now I'm having to pick them up. I've spent a day on a new save and now I have to start again. Ridiculous.
I go t the hotfix and everything takes way too long to load or just eats up game resources and I can no longer get anytbhing from your mod. Without your mod most of my saves CTD.
Apparently any mod that has the Mod Fixer is not working in patch 7 (my game warns compilation error if I try to load with any mod that has the Mod Fixer) Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/BaldursGate3/comments/1fajqmb/patch_7_mod_troubleshooting_post_release/
