Description

EXP Synced

One click in the Mod Configuration Menu raises the experience of every party member to the highest in the party.

What it does

Party members who fell behind in experience catch up with one click:

  • A Sync now button in the Mod Configuration Menu raises the experience of every party member to the highest total in the party.
  • Nobody loses experience.
  • The party is your active party; in multiplayer, the characters of every player. Companions in camp and summons stay as they are.
  • The game then shows the level-up button as usual: you choose the level-up yourself.

How to install

  1. Install Norbyte's Script Extender. It updates itself.
  2. Install the Mod Configuration Menu, version 1.41 or later. The official Mod Configuration Menu 1.41 or later works too; keep only one of them.
  3. Download bg3_expsynced.pak from the latest release on GitHub.
  4. Copy it to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Mods.
  5. Enable EXP Synced in your mod manager (BG3 Mod Manager or the in-game mod manager), below the Mod Configuration Menu.

To update the mod, replace the .pak with the one from the new release. To remove it, disable it in the mod manager and delete the .pak. Saves made with the mod can then show a warning about a missing mod.

How to use

  • Open the Mod Configuration Menu (main menu, Esc menu, or the Insert key) and select EXP Synced.
  • Click Sync now. The text next to the button says who got experience, for example "Raised Gale and Wyll to 6,500 XP.", or "Everyone already has 6,500 XP.".
  • The game adds the experience a moment later. A click before that says "Still syncing. Try again in a moment."
  • In the main menu the button only asks you to load a savegame.

Compatibility

  • Game version: Patch 8
  • The mod changes no game files: it gives experience with the game's own call, so it works with other mods.
  • Mods that multiply experience gains (for example the experience multiplier of Level Unlocked) can multiply the synced experience too. Set such a multiplier to 1 before you sync.

Known issues

  • Multiplayer is not tested yet.

How to build

Anyone can build this mod from its source code and check that the download matches it.

  1. Install the tools: Windows PowerShell 5.1 (part of Windows) and LSLib v1.20.4. Put LSLib into a folder _tools\lslib\ above the repository, or set BG3_TOOLS to the folder that holds lslib\.
  2. Build it: powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\build.ps1
  3. Find the file: dist\bg3_expsynced.pak

The offline tests need Python 3 with lupa: python -m pip install lupa, then python tests\run_tests.py.
