    • When rotating, the cursor is hidden and stays in place and Interact is disabled

INSTALLATION

I highly recommend to use Borderless Window mode. Fullscreen does not display error messages and does not work well with multi monitor setups.

When there is a game update after you installed the mod, you might have to re-install BOTH the Mod Loader and the mod! Pay attention to ALL the steps again!

nowmods download

Download WASD Character Movement

1. Download NativeModLoader, extract the zip, and put both bink2w64.dll and bink2w64_original.dll in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Baldurs Gate 3\bin\

  • When Windows prompts whether you want to overwrite the existing files, say yes.
  • The beginning of the path might differ if you installed it on another disk or if you have the GOG version.

2. Download this mod, extract the zip, and put both BG3WASD.dll (the mod) and BG3WASD.toml (the config) in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Baldurs Gate 3\bin\NativeMods\

  • If the NativeMods folder does not exist, create it.

3. Put SDL2.dll from the mod zip in
        C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Baldurs Gate 3\bin\
    and overwrite the existing file!

Uninstallation

To manually uninstall this mod, delete BG3WASD.dll.

To uninstall all native mods, delete the NativeMods folder.
To also uninstall the native mod loader, delete bink2w64.dll and rename bink2w64_original.dll to bink2w64.dll.
SDL2.dll does not need to be restored. It is just an unmodified SDL version 2.28 from SDLs official GitHub. If you want to restore the old SDL version 2.22 that ships with BG3, verify your game files.
