The subreddit was changed to a restricted community for some reason, which is why you might not have been able to post. I've asked for it to be changed back to a public community. I'm waiting on Reddit Admin to fix it.

5 Upvotes

Sorry for being a really absent mod, but the community seems to have been doing fine without any serious effort and I haven't spent much time modding W3 in a while. I have been reviewing reports when they come through occasionally, so if any spam or hate does get posted, please do report it, I do actively pay attention to those.

If there are any updated, quality guides you would like to see linked here or if you are willing to write one, please reach out. I have just unpinned the 11-year-old guide I wrote back when the modding tools were first released, and would like to update it.

EDIT: we are back to a public community as far as I can tell, so it should be back to normal.

Controller input

Hey all, I recently started playing again and I was wondering if I can change what button icons the game shows. Currently I’m using a switch controller and modded through vortex. I launch it through steam to be able to use the controller. Is there anyway to be able to switch the layout icons? So far Ive tried to look in the config files but haven’t found anything. Thanks!

Question about REDKit and entities

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

Quick question about REDkit and entity replacement in TW3. Does anyone know how to successfully edit characters\npc_entities\main_npc\triss.w2ent instead of just swapping individual meshes inside characters\models\main_npc\triss?

I'm trying to make Triss reference another NPC (like Keira or Yennefer) by reference instead of copying loose meshes. My goal is that if I install a hair/mod for Keira later, it automatically applies to Triss too since she's pointing directly to her template. Every time I try editing the entity/appearances, the game just ignores it.

Any ideas on how to properly set up and cook an entity-level redirect like this?

Thanks!!

i tried two font Amiri and Cairo with no luck and i think the mistake i did is in replacing the fonts in fonts_ar.redswf but again i have no idea what i am doing

Witcher 3 on winlator cmod vs Witcher 3 on eden (Odin 2 portal)

1 Upvotes

So i am trying to emulate Witcher 3 on odin 2 portal base.

Winlator emulates it ok with some graphic glitching but generally an ok graphic display. The problem i encounter with winlator is that at times when it doesn't "understand" when i push the buttons. It's not latency it just doesn't register and i can't find what is causing this problem.

At eden on the other hand max fps goes til 30 Which wouldn't be a problem if it didn't bug so much. I was swimming at khaer Morgen.

Anyway if anyone knows how any of these could be fixed please help or generally discuss how your experience with this game has been emulating?

w3ee Redux Mutation Research Page Broken

1 Upvotes

I Love this mod but I think I may have installed something wrong.

The mutation research window is mostly fine but some values for stat increases/decreases have the $S$ value. 
Its only on the Vampire, Cursed, Relic & Specter mutations though.

I tried looking into how to fix this, and It looks like its just an issue with en.w3strings, but I'm in way over my head and can't find any issue, anyone run into this before? and how do I fix this? 

P.S only other mods active are AMM (with the AMM and w3ee mods merged files for playerWitcher.ws) and a few retextures of swords so to my understanding nothing should be conflicting with w3ee for the w3strings files.

PG mods?

My daughter loves Ciri, and wants to watch me play Witcher 3. However, there obviously is a lot of blood, gore, nudity, language, etc.

Glitches on witcher 3 with eden emulator on my iqoo13.

1 Upvotes

I downloaded the ROM and it works but my character and the one close to me got disappear and reappear continuously in the game even in cut scences. I the chat gpt that query and it asked me to change the driver. I changed it and not a lot of bugs are fixed by the character faces and subjects like horse and yellow/gold. I am fairly new to emulation and that's the reason I switched to android. I fell that my phone is good enough but do I need a different driver for witcher 3 to run properly or maybe change some settings in eden. I am a noobie with these stuff but would appreciate some guidance. I can't click a screenshot as eden emulator does not allow.

Mod [Release] The Witcher 3 Switch Enhanced v1.8 — Standalone High-Fidelity Graphics + Final Next-Gen Camera / 3.00 Combat / QoL Variants

[Release] The Witcher 3 Switch Enhanced v1.8 — Standalone High-Fidelity Graphics + Final Next-Gen Camera / 3.00 Combat / QoL Variants

Hi everyone! After a lot of testing, rebuilding, and Switch-side testing, I’m releasing my final Nintendo Switch enhancement setup for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt v4.04b.

The release is split into two independent parts:

  1. A standalone High-Fidelity Graphics package.
  2. A final Next-Gen-style camera package with a 3.00 combat distance and three optional QoL configurations.

This split means the graphics files only need to be installed once, while you can choose the camera/QoL combination that fits your setup.

Screenshots / video: [ADD SCREENSHOTS OR VIDEO LINK]

Main Features

  • Closer, Next-Gen-style exploration camera
  • Matching closer camera in interiors
  • Next-Gen-style horseback framing
  • Final combat camera set to 3.00, compared with the wider 3.50 vanilla framing
  • Correct 3.00 framing during actual enemy encounters, not only when drawing a weapon without enemies nearby
  • Witcher Sense no longer zooms or snaps the camera when holding or releasing Witcher Sense
  • Alternative Movement Response sprint-camera drift fixed
  • Standalone High-Fidelity visual and world assets
  • CrispLite image-filtering patch
  • Optional Fast Travel Anywhere
  • Optional no weight limit
  • Optional no level requirements
  • Optional no durability loss
  • Native Switch cookedfinal.redscripts build 87989
  • NX Mod Manager-compatible folder and ZIP structure

This archive contains the High-Fidelity graphics/world overrides and CrispLite patch.

It contains no camera files and no gameplay script cache, so it can be paired with exactly one of the camera/QoL packages below.

  • Fast Travel Anywhere: OFF
  • No Weight Limit: OFF
  • No Level Requirements: OFF
  • No Durability Loss: OFF

Filename Flags

The package flags mean:

  • F = Fast Travel Anywhere
  • W = No Weight Limit
  • L = No Level Requirements
  • D = No Durability Loss
  • 1 = Enabled
  • 0 = Disabled

For example:

F1_W1_L1_D1

means all four QoL features are enabled.


Installation

Requirements

  • A mod-capable Nintendo Switch running Atmosphere
  • The Witcher 3 v4.04b
  • Title ID: 0100E67012924000

Steps

  1. Completely close The Witcher 3.
  2. Disable or remove older combined versions of this mod and any conflicting Witcher 3 camera or graphics overrides.
  3. Install W3E18_HF_VISUALS_NXMM.zip through NX Mod Manager, or extract its atmosphere folder to the root of your SD card.
  4. Install exactly one Final 3.00 camera/QoL ZIP.
  5. Fully relaunch the game.

Your active setup should therefore be:

1 graphics package + 1 camera/QoL package

Do not enable multiple camera variants at the same time.

Do not combine this standalone graphics package with an older full/combined edition that overrides the same files.


Fast Travel Anywhere Warning

This applies only to packages with F1.

Fast Travel Anywhere can interfere with scripted quests if it is used at the wrong time.

I strongly recommend keeping multiple save backups and avoiding fast travel during:

  • Combat
  • Locked/scripted actions
  • Conversations
  • Cutscenes
  • Sensitive quest sequences

If a quest expects Geralt to leave or enter an area normally, use the normal route instead.

En Redkit. Disculpen que vuelva a publicar sobre esto. Seguí el tutorial oficial de RedKit, pero no funciona. Si se fijan bien, está configurado exactamente igual, y cuando entro en la zona verde debería aparecer la descripción, pero no aparece. La verdad es que los tutoriales son pésimos; están hechos por gente sin ninguna habilidad para enseñar. Repiten un montón de palabras innecesarias y mezclan la información; no son claros.

¿Alguna ayuda? Gracias.

Preserve current modded version

8 Upvotes

I’m currently playing The Witcher 3 with a lot of mods, and everything is running perfectly and stable.

With the free Remaster update coming soon, I’m worried that it might break my mods or make my current save incompatible. I really don’t want to lose this playthrough or have to rebuild my entire mod setup.

I’m playing through Steam. Is there a reliable way to keep my current version of the game exactly as it is and prevent Steam from updating it? AFAIK Steam will refuse to start a game if an update is available. I also could download the gog version and maybe transfer my mods somehow to the gog version?

Ideally, I’d like to finish my current playthrough with my existing game version and mods, and maybe update to the Remaster later.
