I have attempted solutions to common problems

Yes

I have checked that my game version is supported

Yes

OS

Windows 10

Platform

Steam

Description

my script extender won't update to V20, cause it says V20 doesn't support game versions before 4.57. the script extender version text also does not appear in my game menu, indicative that it doesn't exist even when downloaded. my game version is v4.1.1.5849914. i had to do a fresh install of bg3 for patch 7, and i've had issues ever since.

Indications

game crashes when i try to load saves from patch 6, with all mods disabled. create new game, loads fine. haven't redownloaded any mods yet.

I have this issue as well when automatically acquiring BG3SE from BGRMM.

I manually installed BG3SE instead from "https://bg3se-updates.norbyte.dev/Channels/Release/Packages/v20.0.0.0-1a7ea8f71330ca5820dc36f04ddfdaa62220ecead7c1c50bfcd8188970ebfe3d.package"

Transfer BG3Scriptextender.dll and libprotobuf-lite.dll to Baldurs Gate 3/bin. Rename BG3Scriptextender.dll to DWrite.dll

Hopefully the auto update gets fixed since afaik manually installing won't update BG3SE automatically anymore? not sure

I used this way to install in MacOS using Crossover and works
