That might be due to the ImprovedUI mod. I know there are like bonus downloads just for that. Or maybe I’m wrong and this needs an update. Oh well, I’m at least glad I’ll be able to use it and have my game load. Can’t even start a new game coz of some of my mods I refuse to delete so I’m just stubbornly sitting here and hoping lmao
Secret Identity sounds like a great Background for a superhero baldur's gate 3 Origin! Wish there was more superhero mods, especially for costumes and powers.
Just out of interest, a mod author has done an Inspiration Framework which might possibly get around the problem of new backgrounds not influencing dialogue.
Since going through the entire games dialogue for each backgrounds inspirations would be a colossal task, it might just be best to link each new background with a base game one that closely matches. For example, the Soldier background with City Watch, City Watch background characters would get inspirations at the same places as Soldiers would. That could even be a good baseline to start with then add new ones and remove ones that do not make sense from there.
You're not the first one to suggest that idea and trust me I already attempted it. It's just not possible with how the inspirations are set up. There's no way to piggy-back on the existing ones at all without some really extensive work in the script extender where I'd have to then test each inspiration point individually to make sure none are broken which is monumental to say the least.
With official modding tools we'd (hopefully) be able to directly edit the story database where all of this is saved, which we currently can't without extreme effort.
Finally realized I had to take the initiative myself and make a pull request on the IUI github to get this added to their compatibility list. They've accepted it and pushed it to their Feb. 28th release of IUI Assets.
If you do not want to use IUI Assets the old version is otherwise identical and you can keep using it no problem. However, future updates will all rely on IUI as a hard requirement.
