Learn how to manage your mods using Lampray.
Before you can manage your mods using Lampray, you'll need to complete one of the following:
You'll need to set the path to your Steam library and game data in Lampray, so your mods are added to the right directories.
At the top of the window, select Lampray > Steam Directory, then follow the on-screen instructions to set the path to your Steam game's root directory and AppData
directory.
For Steam Deck you need either to connect a keyboard or install CoreKeyboard in desktop mode via Discover app (it can be found in the bottom left part of the screen, it has a blue bag icon). To set the path to the game you need to click Lampray - Baldur's Gate 3 - Default
in the top left corner with your right trackpad and choose Game Configuration
.
This is where you need to use CoreKeyboard. Press Ctrl + H to see hidden folders and files. Current paths for Baldur's Gate are:
/home/deck/.steam/steamapps/common/Baldurs Gate 3
and
/home/deck/.steam/steamapps/compdata/1086940/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/Larian Studios/Baldur’s Gate 3
.
You'll need to complete the following steps anytime you add or remove mods using Lampray:
