Baldur's Gate 3 v1.5.2.7z Issue (Require Assistance).

[JaydenSnowden4116]

Before I explain my issue in greater detail here's a half joking sob story:
Recently I showed my younger sister BG3, she loves it, this is the only game she's ever played this much of.. She has become very invested in her campaign (her first one). This issue has made it to where she can no longer load her current save files and she has invested dozens of hours and is late into chapter 3 of her campaign. This situation is dire, and indeed sad.

So anyways, ever since update v1.5.2.7z I have been unable to load any previous saves. Whenever I enter the game and load one or click continue it pops up with this and sends me back to the main menu:

"We were unable to load your saved game. This might be due to mods you have installed. Please disable mods and try again."

There have only been two mods installed with the addition of one that I can't remember the name of, that is now redundant thanks to the BG3 update and no longer needed for the other two mods to function. The current two mods are "Avariel Race by Ren" and "LSLib/Divine Tool". I have attempted to disable and or delete these mods and attempt to load the save again afterwards. Of course, as you might expect, this obviously won't work. When I click continue or try to load a save file I am prompted with:

"Mod Issues Detected
Please resolve the following mod issues to avoid potential instability during gameplay.
Unresolved Mod Issues!"   

(Below that it displays):

Avariel_Ren             ! Third Party Mod

I click start game to bypass this prompt and I am once again prompted. The prompt is this:

Different Mod Setting
The following mods were enabled on save, but are now disabled: Avariel_Ren
Your gamemay be unstable as a result - do you want to continue?

As you might've guessed the entire game simply crashes. I try reinstalling the mods after deleting them and I am once again prompted with the "please disable mods and try again". I am by no means on expert using Vortex as a mod manager and it is.. indeed frustrating at times. But I really want to continue this struggle so I can get my sister her campaign back so she can continue. For some other troubleshooting methods, I've tried reinstalling the mods, the entire game, and vortex. That did not resolve the issue. If anyone can help me figure out what's wrong, or a way to get the saved game to load without the mods it used to have, please respond. I'm not sure if this is a problem with the specific mod 'Avariel Ren' or if it's some other issue. Anyways, thanks for reading all this if you did.

According to the comments on the mods page, this mod has mod fixer imbedded into the code.

How to remove mod fixer from mods.

Gonna teach you guys how to fish ... Credit to Kestralys on Nexus

1. Download Baldur's Gate 3 Modder's Multitool and follow instructions for setup.

https://github.com/ShinyHobo/BG3-Modders-Multitool

2. Open (the Mod you're working on) zip folder and drop (the Mod you're working on) onto Multitool workspace.

3. Open unpacked (the Mod you're working on) folder and navigate to Mods\(the Mod you're working on).

4. Delete Story folder which has the remove ForceRecompile.txt file inside.

5. Drop edited (the Mod you're working on) folder onto Multitool workspace to repack.

6. Depending on how you set up Multitool, it will either:

A. create a new zipped folder of (the Mod you're working on), now without Mod Fixer, that you can install, or
B. place the repacked .pak file directly into your mods folder.

7. Be sure and save, then export load order.

You can now remove mod fixer from other mods that have it as well. Have fun catching fish on your own now
