Description
Party Size Evolved increases the default party size limit to 6, with the option to configure it higher or lower, all the way to 10, or back down to 4.



5+ Multiplayer

Norbyte's Divinity Script Extender[github.com] is required for 5+ multiplayer to work. If enabled, the multiplayer limit will automatically be increased to 10 (thanks to PSE extender scripts), and PSE's lobby fixes will be enabled, allowing more players in the lobby and character creation.

Important: Only 4 players can be a "Custom" origin in character creation. This is due to a limitation in the game, where only 4 "generic" origin characters exist. If you try to make a 5th player a custom character, they won't work correctly (pink skin, can't change gender), due to the fact that the game tries to transform a named origin character, since it ran out of generics.



Features
  • The party size is set to 6 by default when the mod is activated. This can be increased to 10, or back down to 4.
  • Reflection dialog, party decision dialog, and flags/tags DOS2DE looks for in dialog have been taken into careful consideration, and made compatible. Even with 10 party members, they will all have reflection dialog.
  • No files are overwritten. PSE works by modifying databases and disabling a specific DOS2DE script to enable its own. Additionally, these changes can be reverted to return things to normal.
  • A settings dialog is available for the host to configure their max party size.

    This menu can be accessed with the PSE book, or through the LeaderLib mod menu.
  • Extended lobby slots, if the script extender is enabled:

    Update 1.3.0.0
    If the script extender is enabled, and LeaderLib is enabled, the max party size can now be set in the Mod Settings UI, located in the options menu.

  • A Party Management submenu is now available, allowing you to assign characters to other players.

  • Character switcher skills are now available, allowing controllers a way to switch between characters.

Selecting Party Members When You Have Too Many
If you increase the max party cap high enough to have portraits go off the screen, you can select these party members with the following keybinds:

The "Cycle Characters Next / Cycle Characters Prev" keybinds available in the controls menu (The default keys are left bracket [] for Keyboard + Mouse).

Support
If you're feeling generous, an easy way to show support is by tipping me a coffee:

I love modding this game, and I love interacting with the community. Every bit helps to keep me doing what I'm doing. Thanks!

Bug Reports
If you experience any party-related bugs as a result of having more than 4 members, please notify me in the comments below, and I'll investigate it. All the bases should be covered, as I've gone through and looked to see where the party amount factors into Larian's scripts, but as this is a pretty complex thing, something may have been missed.

To help me narrow down the problem faster, use this format:

@b. I don't think you should do 6-man run if you want it be balanced but, you could try looking at some mods that makes the game more difficult.
AI wise, XP wise etc.
b. 6 Aug @ 11:12am 
Anyone have any recommendations on how to balance 6 people on Classic and/or Tactician mode for a close to Vanilla play through?

I installed the mod, but am missing the book to enable it. Anyone knows why this is/how to fix it? Playing on DE and restarted with new game after installing the mod.

@MisterLapino.TTV Did you try going into:
"C:\Users\<your account>\Documents\Larian Studios\Divinity Original Sin 2 Definitive Edition\Mods"
Because that's actually where the mods go and where the game check to see if you have any mods downloaded, NOT steam workshop.
If you can't find the directory, search on google, and you'll be able to easily find the exact location.

If you are still active, can you mod the GUI to support the 10 characters by adding columns to the GUI?

This bug may occur: a party member may get kicked out their group if you recruit more than 4 characters, if this happens then drag the portrait to reassign the character to the main group to fix this
