hi there! I've run into an issue with getting the post-Yurgir confession to trigger. Perhaps you can help me figure out what I did wrong. :) I did Araj first, got the scene at long rest, all good! Then went and killed Yurgir, long rested and Raphael came to camp to deliver his speech. However, no matter how many times I tried to long rest after, the confession does not trigger, despite meeting all the requirements (approval is at 100, been to moonrise, killed Yurgir, Raph came to chat about the scars).
What I've tried so far: completely removing and reinstalling the mod checked Baldurs Gate 3\Data\Mods\GustavDev\Story for conflicts - no files in there at all. checked if i have any loose files mods - nothing. checked the flags, Astarion shows as "dating", _D(Osi.DB_ORI_Partnered:Get(nil, nil)) returns nothing.
I'm a little afraid to progress the story further (enter the shadowfell etc) before getting to the bottom of this and would appreciate any help you can provide :)
It sounds like you've done everything right. _D(Osi.DB_ORI_Partnered:Get(nil, nil)) should return nothing until after the Yurgir confession with this mod, so that's normal.
Just a few questions:
Is literally nothing happening when you rest? Or are other scenes playing?
Are you on Patch 7 or Patch 8? (I haven't had any problems with this mod on either patch, but helpful to know)
Do you have any .pak mods in your Mods folder (..\AppData\Local\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Mods) that edit Astarion's confession?
Is the .pak for this mod in your load order in BGMM? If you press "Export" and then "Refresh", is it still on the list? If the mod isn't actually loaded into the game, that would explain why the Araj scene worked as normal but the Yurgir scene isn't happening! This mod contains override files (changes to dialogue) and custom files (scripts to allow both confessions happen); override files get loaded into your game no matter what, but the mod has to be in your load order for its custom files to be loaded into your game.
Since it looks like you're using the Script Extender console, you can also try these commands to troubleshoot.
To check if the Yurgir confession is still available:
_D(Osi.DB_CampNight:Get("NIGHT_Astarion_Act2RomanceFallback_7c169c4d-c675-483c-8861-c96954ecaa46", nil)) This will return [ ] if the scene is no longer available. If this is the case, I would then try:
_D(Osi.DB_CAMP_METRIC_NIGHT:Get(nil, nil)) which will print out a list of all the camp nights that took place. If NIGHT_Astarion_Act2RomanceFallback_7c169c4d-c675-483c-8861-c96954ecaa46 is on the list, that would mean that you found a bug that caused the game to think the scene already happened!
thank you so much for your quick reply, I really appreciate it! :)
to answer your questions:
literally nothing happens, no other scenes are queued up (but I only tested back-to-back long resting 5 times)
I'm on patch 8
Not currently, but I used to have Astarion Romance Act 2 Overhaul, which would conflict for sure. But that was for a previous playthrough and I've since completely removed that file by manually deleting it from the mods folder.
It's active in my load order, even after exporting and refreshing.
I tried the console commands too. The first command returned [ ], second one does not list the line you mentioned.
Thanks again for trying to help! I absolutely love your mods, they've quickly become essential for my playthroughs.
Good news! I did some additional fiddling and looks like I managed to fix it, yay! Tried setting Astarion as partnered via the console, manually saved, reloaded that same save and got the post-Yurgir confession on the very next long rest. Not sure how that happened but I'm happy to say, issue solved :)
i play the game on the ps5 is there anyway that you could make it and or submit it to and onto mod.io for approval or whatever is needed so that i could use it for this and the original astarion confession edit mod that is
I believe I have encountered a bug. I did Yugir first, and everything played out as normal. I then did the Araj scene, things were fine at first. Then two camp nights after Araj, the Yugir scene played again. Then two night after that, the Yugir scene played yet again. If it helps to know, all of these confessions were at different camps (meaning the first time I got the Yugir confession it was at the camp outside of last light, the second time it was at the last light camp, and the last time it was at shar's temple).
I do not have any other overrides installed that relate to this scene whatsoever. No loose files, nada. I do not have any files installed that alter Astarion's partnered or dating flags either. Basically, I don't have anything installed that should conflict with this.
I'm guessing there is a flag issue somewhere due to me doing Yugir first instead of Araj.
Here's hoping this is just a me thing or it's an easy fix because I truly adore the concept of this mod and the way you've implemented it, it's amazing. Thanks so much for your work.
Astarion's "nice, simple, plan" is really weighing on him, huh...
In all seriousness, that's such an annoying bug -- thank you so much for flagging it! I just uploaded a new version that should prevent Astarion from wanting to have the same conversation over and over 🫠
I haven't even gotten out of Act 1 yet, but I tried to install this in anticipation of where I'm wanting my run to go. (First run on a new computer, I installed the game on it just two days ago.) Every time I open mod manager, this mod is moved over to the inactive side, no matter how many times I drag it over to the active loading order, save, export, and close it again. Something wrong seems afoot. :(
Just to confirm -- are you putting just the .pak into your Mods folder or including the json (you should only be using the pak on PC for BGMM)? Is the mod located in any subfolders?

I haven't seen the whole Astarion Act 3 stuff so I don't know what scene is what
