Warningred.png Modding dialogs is currently not possible, but will be enabled in a patch soon!

Description

Modding existing dialogs is possible, albeit slightly different from modding other systems. Most moddable systems in Divinity: Original Sin 2 work by either:

  • An object overrides another when it has the same GUID, or,
  • An object overrides another when it has the same name


Overriding dialogs is different, as it works by creating dialogs with the same file name instead.


Modding existing dialogs

To modify an existing dialog in your module:

  • Open up the DialogEditor Icon.png Dialog Editor
  • Load an existing dialog from a project that yours inherits from (e.g. Data\Mods\DivinityOrigins_1301db3d-1f54-4e98-9be5-5094030916e4\Story\Dialogs\Tutorial\TUT_LowerDeck_OriginLohse.lsj if your project inherits from the Divinity: Original Sin 2 project)
  • Edit the dialog (in the example image I added an additional answer node for the Red Prince)
  • Save the dialog in your own project with the same file name, under "Data\Mods\{YourProjectFolder}\Story\Dialogs\"
