Hello, Nafeij here.

Nafeij's BS3 Fixpack is a legacy-support mod for Banner Saga 3.
The mod corrects bugs, inconsistencies and typos in the video game Banner Saga 3 by Stoic Studios. It also restores some never-before-seen cut-content and features various QoL improvements.

Many thanks to:

Be sure to check out the other fixpacks (Saga 1 / Saga 2).

Ciao!

[NEW] What's new in 1.1:

  • FIXED bug where the skulker eggs thrown by barb hurlers would not spawn skulkers. The `_abl_hatch` ability was targeting the wrong entity (`ENEMY` instead of `OTHER`).
  • FIXED If one of your heroes with an item gets killed, and is possessed by Eyeless, defeating your hero grants you a duplicate of that item. The game also tags possesed entities with a unique `"POSSESSED"` tag, which can be checked in `engine\battle\entitiy\model\BattleEntity._handleDeath_pre` to prevent them from dropping their items.
  • FIXED The passive on all types of Dredge Hurlers, Distraught, isn't triggering properly. Apparently simply changing "responsePhase" to "POST_COMPLETE" in its corresponding entry in `_ability.index.json` is enought to fix this.
  • FIXED Juno dialogue branch in her history lesson was dropped in a previous version of the mod. This has been added back in.
  • FIXED Some characters may get obscured in conversations due to poor positioning. Manually repositioned several convos for this and stylistic purposes.
  • FIXED There were times at the start of battles where two lines of dialogue (the ones randomly assigned to characters) would both be spoken by the same person. This is now much less likely to happen.
  • FIXED Miscellaneous typos.
  • TWEAKED Swapped out Valgard with Folka (if she is alive) in the conversation before recovering Juno's body.
  • ADDED Extra chat with Eirik is he's present in Arberrang, which was cut from the base game.


What's new in 1.0:

  • FIXED Ekkill's alive state is not properly imported from Saga 2, resulting in him being missing from certain conversations
  • FIXED Mogun says a line that makes no sense if Hogun dies in Saga 1, or if he hangs his axe in Saga 2.
  • FIXED-WILL items can cause willpower to be 'lost' when using horn (The charge goes away but you get no WIL if it's above your "new max WIL"). Fixed by changing the getValue to getBase in \game\gui\HornHelper
  • FIXED Sprites are positioned too high where it shows the Ravens walking atop the white tower
  • FIXED Bug in storyline where it doesn't say Iver and the Ravens return to Arberrang if Oddleif is dead.
  • FIXED Survival finale cutscene and final scores not triggering properly
  • FIXED Ranged abilities being capped off by Exertion. So for instance Gunnulf can't use Rank 3 of Forge Ahead and Sparr cannot use max-range Insult if they only have 2 EXE.
  • FIXED Many, many typos and broken dialogue trees in conversations, popups and cutscene subtitles. For details please refer to the Github Mirror.
  • TWEAKED Added several flags to unequip items when characters are removed from the roster.
  • TWEAKED Gave Stonesingers +1 range
  • ADDED Secret item from Yak's BS2 Fixpack included for continuity

How to install:

Steam

  • Download the mod archive.
  • Uncompress the zip archive and place the `/tbs3` folder in your game folder (e.g.
    `.../steamapps/common`). It will ask you to overwrite some files.

GOG

  • Follow the Steam installation steps above.
  • Additionally, download the archive `..._GOG.zip`, and patch this over the same files above.

Mod-Enabler Integration

The root folders are structured to be compatible with mod-enablers like OvGME and JSGME.

Simply place the extracted root folder (NOT the `/tbs3` folder) in the configuration mods folder (`/MODS` in JSGME)
and load the mods into your game's root directory (e.g.
`.../steamapps/common`).


How to uninstall:

`Properties -> Verify the integrity of game files` in Steam or `Manage installation -> Verify / Repair...` in GOG.
