Version 1.1 was uploaded. The only .pak that changed was the main mod. The version will still show 1.0 for now. Uploaded this to resolve a potential issue with Agonizing Blast.
After downloading this while using Scarlet Warlock - Eldritch Blast Overhaul, the Eldritch Scholar Feat - Agonizing Blast now scales on your Charisma Modifier instead of your Spell Casting Modifier, which what it was when I was only using Scarlet Warlock - Eldritch Blast Overhaul.
I don't understand anything about modding or how to change it but just letting you know, unless it was intended then oops.
I would try loading the Main file before the rest from this mod. Furthermore do the mods in position 245 and 246 overwrite the Scarlet Warlock Tweaks mods?
Hi there. Looks like your load order is backwards. The order should be Warlock Eldritch Blast Tweaks > Scarlet Warlock Tweaks Main > (Scarlet Warlock Tweaks).
So we can't use Damge_Force and Damage_Elemental paks in the same load order? BG3MM just overwrites one with the other when you attempt to install both. They'll show in the mod folder but inside BG3MM you'll see one or the other. BG3MM flags it as a duplicate and will ask you to remove the one that isn't in load order when you reopen BG3MM.
Hi there. I tried to make this clear in the images. They're in the same category. You can't use two from the same category at once. This is to modify the base damage of the spell, and you can only have one base damage specified at a time. I could make it so you could load both at once, but they'll just overwrite each other.
If you want to stack damage buffs, you need the Cheat mod. This will be uploaded very soon. You can see a preview copy on my other mod page under the Old Files section.
Gotcha. Ty for the reply. Also, any idea why the Beam_Scaling paks might trigger a CTD? Thought it was possibly a corrupted download. But after redownloading it. Still occurs, been swapping out 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 12. Just to see if it was the pak itself. But 6 of them have the same CTD effect when loading up the game (after the splash screens when it begins loading). All the other ones work fine and work fine together. But adding any of the BeamScaling produces the same CTD. Even tried with with nothing else in load order except Main and Beam_Scaling.
Yes, see the chart that's in the sticky. I discovered recently that the engine can only handle X number of addendums to a single spell record. I'm hoping to figure out a workaround but in the meantime, some of the tweaks are also available as cheats, so I would use the cheat mod for those to reduce your load (tweaks and cheats have a lot of overlap but some tweaks cannot be cheats, and vice-versa, that's why I offer both).
If this does not fix your issue, lmk. AFAIK it's not Beam Scaling specifically, it's your total addon load. I assume you have addons from the other mod page still which count towards this total.
Thanks for the explanation. I definitely have other mods lol. Around 90ish or so right now. Haven't had a chance to play BG3 too much lately. Got caught up in work. I'll play around with your suggestion tomorrow. Superbowl today. Thanks again, love the mods.
Thank you for making this mod, I am having a blast. I did run into most of the situations you made sticky for, including game not loading. Your sticky helped me to overcome them. I still dream of being able to to select element as I cast, so I could douse enemy then hit him with lightning, etc.
If you either use the Elemental Damage Addon from Scarlet Warlock - Eldritch Blast Overhaul or the Tweaks_Damage_Elemental (1d10 for default dmg) You will have access to Elemental Versions of Eldritch Blast. I use the lightning one all the time. Works great with the wet condition and stuff like reverberation through items. I usually run around with 4 different Eldritch Blast elements to choose from.
I must be having a giant misunderstanding, I thought I could only pick one file, like if I chose Cold, then all other elements are excluded. Cause the paks were named the same to facilitate swapping. Are you saying there is a way to swap elements during the same fight?
There are 10 different Elemental Eldritch Blast versions. They are all included. The tweaks file or the scarlet warlock file just enables them to do their respective element instead of force damage. You will have to learn the different EB version though. You can pick them up from the Warlock cantrip list or the Eldritch Scholar feat. Alternatively you could cheat learn the spells via the console or use the Bonus Addon from the main mod to add 2 rings. One has all the spells separately on it. The other uses the same logic as a chromatic orb spell where you click the spell and than have a list of all the versions.
Would it be possible to add tweaks to elemental EBs that apply on-hit effects to the target (instead of the surface) such as Ray of Frost's slow effect for the cold EB, burning for the fire EB, etc.? Or does this already exist and I'm just misreading the mod?
The tweaks don't do exactly what you're suggesting. The enviro chart just flags environmental interactions. So the "Freeze" property interacts with water and blood, and freezes it, and the "Douse" propety puts out fire. The upgraded version of that enviro tweak also adds an ice surface.
The enviro effects are a "Spell Property" attribute, but the slowing effect itself would be a "Spell Success" attribute which occupies the same slot as the damage tweaks. This makes tweaking these effects more difficult. However, I will have my Cheats mod active soon where this will work as a passive. I'll be sure to implement this type of effect then.
The download file contains a bunch of different versions you can choose from. You should not put all of them into your load order. Load the main file and whatever of the Tweaks you want.
I myself use a combination of both right now. I use the main Eldritch Blast Overhaul plus the environmental interactions from the Tweaks mod. You can pick and choose what you want from both mods. Just make sure you load the required files for each mod.
Wait so the main mod doesn't have the elemental reactions? I will apply hq anyways so I'll download this, but I thought the elemental blast already had the nq version applied to it.
Hi Kuresuto! Yeah, I updated the sticky on the other mod to reflect that this functionality has been reassigned to the Tweaks mod. It was going to clash with the enviro tweaks I wanted to implement with this mod, so wanted to separate them more for safety or else some unintended interactions might happen.
Man all of them whatever is clever - these 2 mods are some of my favorites and it just makes so much sense. I beg of you!!! The one i linked is a combo of all his individual vfx mods.
