📋 About This Mod

There are a huge number of quips and comments for your companions in BG3 that only get used if you are playing as them. This mod repurposes all of those lines to be used as companion chatter. All lines play in the correct moment and match

NEW FIX IS UP! Download 1. 0. 0. 10. No need to update config app if you use it!

-New version notes and instructions:

This new version has new config validation to prevent errors from incorrectly constructed config files. This shouldn't be a problem if you use the config app, but if you are manually configuring, this validation will help you spot issues with your config.

If a companion key is missing from the config, the mod will now fall back to the default config instead of erroring out. If you find that the mod is using the default config instead of your own, do one of the following:

1) Rerun config app and save it to the mod

2) If you are manually setting up your own config file, look to the script extender output for detailed logs on changes you need to make to the config.

Even if you don't do either of these things, the mod should now work no matter what.

Thank you to everyone who dropped some info in the comments.

There are a huge number of quips and comments from your companions in BG3 that only get used if you are playing as them. But the vast majority of people

play with a custom character. This mod repurposes all of those lines to be used as companion chatter. Intended for people who play as custom

characters and want to hear even more from their companions. This includes not only the origin characters but also Minthara, Halsin, Jaheira, and Minsc.

-Instead of the generic lines you usually hear from your custom character, companions

will chime in with their own corresponding lines for that moment, which are often character specific and far more interesting. These are the lines that you'd hear if you were playing as them.

-There is a good chance you haven't heard most of these lines, so its great for spicing up your next playthrough.

-Does not interfere with dialogs where your custom character talks to

your companions, such as when the dragon flies overhead in act 1.

-Does not interfere with existing party banter! Any dialogs with more than 1 speaker are left untouched.

-Works with all companions. Works with any party size, including beyond 4. A member of your party is chosen randomly to

speak. Party members who are too far away in the moment won't be used.

-If you are alone / too far away from all party members, then your

custom character will say the line like usual.

-When you are controlling someone other than your custom character, behavior will be normal. (The person you are controlling will say their line).

-Technically also works with hirelings - although their dialog is the same as what you'd hear
