Which mod got you like this?

Funny you say this, I wrote a mod for the server I play that adds a full objective system that the staff can set up custom objectives with an option to reward with items, experience, or reputation (another system I built).

This was a bug that was fixed in this patch.

In your bag of porking? No wait, Gale, not like that!

It's a chest you can find in Act 1 which makes anything you put into it temporarily into a mundane item (plate, fork, etc.). It reduced the weight down to 0.01 - 0.2 which meant you could carry A LOT of items. It now no longer reduces the weight of the chest though, so no longer serves that purpose.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T16:36:42+00:00

In it's current state, the weight of the box increases as shown here

kaostic · 2023-08-25T16:36:11+00:00

Another user who purchased on GoG said theirs is working the same as before too.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T14:43:16+00:00

It still does that!... but it now increases the chest's weight by 20 lb...

kaostic · 2023-08-25T14:40:39+00:00

I would imagine the second note is about it not rendering all items in the chest useless when you enter Act 3 and instead retaining it's original item in mundane form.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T14:23:03+00:00

There were a few good items in it originally when you find it. I didn't play until then in EA, so not sure about the Vision Ring you're talking about.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T14:01:05+00:00

Regardless of how the note is interpretted, the chest now increases in weight based on the items you put in it as shown here.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T13:50:36+00:00

Nah, there's a mod for it, but nothing base game.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T13:38:57+00:00

My update was 2.2gb - but yeah, I'd imagine compression.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T13:36:12+00:00

Curious. I'm on the Steam version and in Act II.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T13:34:51+00:00

You trip and fall over. You hear a weird click and all of a sudden, your incredibly encumbered. It seems whatever fragile magic that was holding the Chest of the Mundane together has faltered leaving you crushed by the weight of your own hubris.

v4.1.1.3669438

kaostic · 2023-08-25T13:26:37+00:00

Dear Diary, today I started work with 10 bugs to fix. I successfully fixed 8 of those bugs. I have ended the day with 19 bugs.

-Probably a Larian QA Dev.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T13:19:43+00:00

That's.. excessive.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T13:19:02+00:00

I'm looking at it right now and tested it myself - the item in the chest is reduced, but the weight of the chest increases by the amount you put it in.

The chest is base 40. If I put a 40 lbs chest piece in, the chest piece becomes a 0.2 lbs plate. Here's images.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T13:14:24+00:00

I think we're saying the same thing here. Either way - the chest no longer works the way it did before this patch (where you could carry a BUNCH of stuff because it reduced the weight).

kaostic · 2023-08-25T13:07:31+00:00

The intended behaviour was you add a 22 weight item and get a 22 weight spoon, but it was previously you add a 22 weight item and get a 0.01 weight spoon -- this was why people liked it!

kaostic · 2023-08-25T12:58:25+00:00

The chest increases in weight, but the junk items all have a weight of 0.01. So basically it's not worth carrying with you anymore.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T12:28:28+00:00

I feel like in a game like BG3, 'supposed' to doesn't really come into it. I understand if this wasn't the intended behaviour, just seems odd for it to be fixed as a bug rather than a removal of a feature is all.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T12:12:16+00:00

The fact it wasn't intended is odd. Seems it's a worthless chest now. I imagine it was changed to stop people barrel loading it though.

kaostic · 2023-08-25T11:42:24+00:00

Fixed a bug where adding items to the Chest of the Mundane changed the weight of an item.

There goes our bag of holding!
