Drag and drop not working

Open Cooliosity opened this issue 2 years ago • 8 comments

The changelog includes this line: "Mod paks and archives (zip, 7z) can now be dropped into the active or inactive mod list to import mods." Yet when I do it, it does not work. Could this be an issue on my side?

Does this issue persist if you close the mod manager and open it again? I noticed I couldn't drop external files directly after updating (meaning, after the auto-updater re-opened the program), but it works after re-opening the mod manager again manually.

That fixed it for me. Thanks for the tip! 🙏

I did what you said but with a bunch of extra steps, as in, wrapping up for the day, going to sleep, yada yada. I just tried it out and now it works, thank you!

@emyrsmorgan, just a few common questions, nothing personal :)

  1. Have you read what you can and can't drop? zips and 7z files are fine if they contain pak files, not loose files.
  2. Did you try deleting your %LocalAppData%\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\PlayerProfiles\Public\modsettings.lsx?
  3. If yes to number 2, re-do number 2, delete all the mods in %LocalAppData%\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Mods, and make a fresh install of the Mod Manager.

Please tell us if you fixed your problem with these steps ;)

It should be fine. I'm sorry I can't really help you more than this.😖
