Hi,
Could someone teach me how to raise the ability score improvement softcap from 20 to higher number? Or is it even possible to do it?
I'm able to mod some of the feats without selector and raise the softcap but those feats with selector doesn't work.
Thanks so much!!
what do you mean actually? there's so many ways to do so.
I mean when I take a feat like ASI it capped at 20, and I've tried to edit the feats.lsx but doesn't work. I've after a bit try and error I've found out that those feats with Ability score improvement selector won't allow me to go pass 20, but those without Ability score selector I could modify it in the passive.txt.
Thanks for replying!!!
Assuming you wanted to raise the cap to 500 - you probably should not go that high as you will likely get some integer rollover, but if you really wanted to, you could raise the ability limits by:
- extracting a vanilla copy of .../Baldurs Gate 3/Data/Public/Shared/Stats/Generated/Data/Data.txt (or acquire the file from a friend or mod over on Nexus)
- placing the extracted file in the same file path (you might need to create some of the directory structure)
- edit the extracted file and change only the values of these two entries to something like these:
-- key "AbilityMaxValue","500"
-- key "AbilitySoftCap","510"
- save the file, and the old caps should be removed (after you restart the game, since this file seems to be read on startup).
Note: I have seen errors when both of those values are set to be the same, and the game will limit you to the lower of the two numbers.
I hope that helps.
