Requests

Djmr, in Larian's server, has set up a modding bounty board for the BG3 community.

Request form: http://bit.ly/3YfZ1yD
Anyone can submit a request
Board: http://bit.ly/44M0hf0
Modders can request edit access and assign themselves a posted request
If anyone makes a request there, please do not make duplicate requests on modder's mod pages too, as it ends up with multiple people working on the same mod.
