Tested modlists are always welcome, thanks for sharing!
Yeah, always remember to install one by one to see if something accidentally breaks
Crazy how now we are getting a next gen update. I am going to love to see comparisons.
Very useful video, thanks!
Great video!
Thanks from France ! 👍
Nice video. Acouple mods I like
Absolute Camera. Adjust camera zoom to how you like it. I like to bring it closer over the shoulder for abit more immersion
Instant sign casting for controller. If you prefer playing on controller, this mod is a must have. No more radial menu!
Friendly HUD. Like playing with a clean hud and no mini map, but still want to occasionally check? Can set it so minimap and other info appears only when you activate witcher senses
I can't wait to play the mods on PS4 pro!! I. So excited for this update I've been wanting to start another run W for couple a years now! I'm excited 😀
Love how the guy just throws up in the background 09:29 Awsome Video! i´ll follow your guide!
Bro u just gave me the last drop of reason to play the game again. I'm downloading it NOW.
Man I have all of these mods and a few more and it looks and plays beautiful on my PC. I really want to apply them to the steam deck too but I think the performance is gonna take a huge hit
Have you tried adding any mods to your steam deck yet for this game in particular?
@@sirtimatbob yup. I transferred my entire modded game directory and the mods.settings file to my steam deck using warpinator and it runs at a locked 40fps on a mix of medium and high settings. I did have to use a vram and swap file fix though to improve performance. Cryobyte33 has a great tutorial on his channel on how to do this, it’s really simple and has improved performance on most of my games
@@swerve248 Saw the cryobyte33 video on the swap file. Will check out the VRAM guide from him too.
Thanks for getting back to me with info! Will be following similar steps here once I receive my Steam Deck
@@sirtimatbob yeah no problem. One thing I forgot to mention is the game might have excessive load times or not load at all if you have too many texture and lighting mods. I had to remove the true fires mod and some 4K textures and character model mods (HD reworks performs just fine) to get the game to load
I have the vast majority of these, they are truly game changers, even the little things like the hay bales mod. Holding back on some of the larger graphical ones to save on performance.
Which ones would you say are the larger graphical ones? Just asking to know which ones to look out for.
@@ibby2492 @nikita Hello! i want to know too please
I just remembered. I highly recommend adding optional quest arc with Djikstra and Roach, where Djikstra honors his word and Temeria will be a state without bloodshed between Djikstra, Geralt and Roach.
This is beautiful.
The hood & cloak mod looks so good it should be added into the Witcher 3 base game. I hope PlayStation starts leaning toward all weapon & armor pieces being shown on your person. Fantastic video man, made me want to play the game again.
@@simonsaysssss there is a mod that makes weapons be invisible while the cloak is active
i really had only couple of things i disliked. Textures resolution, wind physics, draw distance, clipping(sometimes it is too noticeable and it breaks the immersion a bit), better and more of the sword bonuses. Those were the biggest remarks i had. In addition to that, i added more armors just to make it more diverse. But mostly game is amazing, and masterfully done, i just added some mods to make it more interesting to replay, like more perk slots, rest of it is mostly graphical enhancements. I am using only Halk texture and reshade that i like, nothing else.
Man this modlist is soo good
But i want u to try
benis lightning mod
With ferroxius reshade
and with blitz fx
Perfect combination doesn't exist
Thanks for watching! I will check it out later, heard about it but never tried it out
Feels like ages we've been waiting for the official update. Pretty much the only thing gamers want for Xmas is this free update. We're aren't bothered about our new underpants and lynx/Axe shower gel.
I liked the video. Personally I'm waiting for the official remastered version, but if it doesn't arrive before the end of the year 2023 as promised I will download all the mods and complete the story again from scratch with most of the mods you recommend. Thank you very much
i think they are remastering witcher 1, not witcher 3
@@MineloPL yes and no :)
Its official dec 14 its gonna release
December 14th let's GOOOO 🥳
Hello LastKnownMeal amazing video with great and easy explanation I have never had mods before but i will try them, 1 thing there are also mods that make the combat harder and more challenging could you make a video about the best combination of those mods?
Thanks for watching. Well if you want to start the game from scratch you have Witcher 3 Enhanced Edition mod which changes a lot in the game and makes it more rewarding
You can try out a mod called Redux if I recall correctly. It was an overall rework of difficulties and made the game more challenging and realistic.
Great timely video. Tired of waiting for next gen update, I feel like we might not see it until 2023
Thanks for watching! Hopefully we don't but until they reveal a release date, anything is possible
I can't wait for the next gen update!
Now that the update is out. How do you feel?
@@TheLateral18 it's... meh
@@Muumin-H it's shit honestly xD
@@ankurh6100 yeah I agree. I commented this before the update
@@Muumin-H Yeah I know. I'm just as disappointed as you are mate. I just re-downloaded my game and I have mod my game all over again.
Take a drink everytime mah boy says beautiful 😅
beatutiful. Now bring me the official next gen exp and let's the comunity mod it on top of it.
Thanks for the video. That looks amazing, but now I'm unsure what to do. Wait for nextgen or play it modded? I'm afraid I might be disappointed with nextgen if I play the modded version first.
Yeah, I mean that's up to you to decide. I am generally waiting for the update for another playthrough now
IMO you should mod and play the game , because it offers more veriety and modding is really fun if you understand it once 👍
modded as you wont play as geralt in the 4th game
@@panboi7490 bro what lol. He meant next gen update that just came out
@@panboi7490 how do u know that
15:52 What's wrong with those ultra smooth logs in the left side?
regarding the cloak and hood mod, when I go to my files and into witcher, there is no bin folder so how would I install the mod? i think the reason why its not there is because I bought witcher 3 next gen on epic games instead of steam :/
could you compare this with next gen update when it comes
lol, nice way to name your ssd and hdd^^
Since we are not getting the next gen update anytime soon why not make our own update, thanks that really turned the game into something else!
Didnt they say end of 2022? We are in August now so it cant be that long. Its just a remaster i dont understand whats taking so long time.
@@DainHunter around November/ December time it should be released
@@hcaps3129 u right my friend
Is there any mod that increase population or pedestrian numbers?
why are all these together looks better than the official one😂
any information when are we getting next gen upgrade patch .
Does the reduce draw distance affect fps much?
super turbo lighting, my man, why yu using the least updated lm on w3 nexus
love the video dude!
i have a quick question for you or anyone else in the comments,... i once installed 'Increased Draw Distance' but never got it to work.
how do i install it properly ?
Had a look at it during this vid when installing - It gave me a warning after the manual install button that it required another 2 mods to work. I just skipped it cause I cba lmfao
My mods after I download them don't have the folder icon. They show like a notepad or something. Am I installing them wrong or do I need another program?
For install mod just create a folder mods and paste the archivies into?
Can you easily install Nexus mods with Vortex?
If I am using the HD Reworked Project by Halkhogan PL, why would I need to use other mods to improve the hay stacks, water, etc. Did he not cover all of those improvements in his mod?
Good point, I left the small ones like that personally.
Do you think that the next-gen upgrade will be realese this year, or there's a chance that will get delayed another time in 2023? Becouse CDPR saied ZERO informations after the second(?) delayed, and I'm going to replay it for the seventh time, lol. Sorry for my bad english btw.
No idea, if they delay again then there is no hope honestly. But I have a feeling it will release just because they know the drama that will happen if they delay again
do i need to wait 10hours for the texture mod without a premium account on nexus mod?
I've tried SCAAR Mods and Geralt is unable to walking :( only jogging. could you give some favor here?
Great video LKM! Hey, what is the minimum requirement to run this mod pack?
Thanks for watching! Only mods which drop a few frames is the first and second mod, everything else is light on resources. I tested this on Nvidia 1060 and it was running great. But for reshade in general I recommend at least Nvidia 1070 or equivalent. Witcher is an old game after all haha
@@LastKnownMeal Nice. Thanks!
@@Danny.TheDog because Halk is increasing texture resolution, thats the only thing you should run on ultra. Rest of it you can reduce to high to get more frames. Even RX 580 8gb could run witcher 3 with 60 fps with Halk textures.
So some other youtuber told in his video to roll back to 1.31, but the video was like 2 yo. Is this still an issue? I've already installed the enhanced edition, and what a hassle it was.
The Witcher 4 in the making xD
Bro, im getting an error when im installing the cape and hood i followed the instructions in the mod description
That torch fire give more light than Sun itself ;D It should be darker and more spreaded cause reminds mi overblowed ligth effects from Witcher 2. More shadow mod must be really unoptimized cause give pretty big lags. Anyway, that's the reason why I do not use any mods - they're but mostly overdone and unoptimized.
Draw distance mod doesnt work Ive done everything for it. Followed all install instructions and it just doesnt work!
hey brother, i love the color of the gear in the video. how to get?
This is Legendary Viper Armor, you have to craft it if you were referring to that, color is just dye you buy
what gpu do u have and how many fps do you get with all these mods?
This is running on 3070Ti but it was also on 1070. FPS is not a big problem here, only first texture and reshade mod make you lose a few frames, others is light.
What is the performance hit when all of these mods are on? I'm hestitating between modding classic Witcher3 and going for a next-gen update due to it having performance hit.
Next gen has a bigger impact than these mods, only reshade and texture from halk hogan take a few frames but that's about it
cloak works in any armor?
I dowloaded mods but them are not working, anyone, no fovslider, no hd project, 0 mods working in 1.32
Do you have a Slow Boi Too?
Anyone try this on patch 4.04? I’m assuming I should go back to v1.32 based on comments I’ve read noting compatibility issues. Plus these mods alone blow the latest update out of the water.
Most of these mods have next gen version, I have a different video which is specifically for next gen, use this video if you are modding classic or well original version of the witcher
I can install this mods in NEXUS MOD MANAGER?
am I the Only one here when enabling mods the options for graphic, dls and rtc is gone
My Wish? A Modbundle with a Setup to Take All Mods with one Click and Install..........(Dream a little Dream)
I have a stupid question, But will the next gen game look better than all of these mods combined? Or will it just look as good as these mods only? I wanna replay the game but i don't know if I should just install these mods or wait for next gen
No idea until gameplay footage is released
the next gen game will be another beast entirely. Also, it's made with a much more sophisticated engine, so whatever mods u can apply to witcher 3 will pale in comparison to the next game's graphics.
@@biffii5568 i really doubt its going be in a whole new engine
@@biffii5568 I know the NEW Witcher game that is in development will be using a brand new engine, the Unreal Engine 5... but will this current remaster for Witcher 3 be using it? Idk..
@@harryjd0_0 lol definitely not
Will this mod work with v1.32 or should i have to downgrade??
No need, this gameplay is running on 1.32
For the cloak, in the input noteepad, you copy and paste because you already have the code. Where do I find the code to actually copy
Mod page on nexus mod, scroll down in description there
hey 4kclouds mods glitched :/ and unlimited loading screen :X
My HUD is gone, how do I get it back?
is the hd reworked going to be samee as the next gen update
Should be very similar, CDProjekt hired him and he worked on the patch, so I imagine he ported what he has done already and added or refined it even more.
download 19 , the cloak , when you are in the input file you control v paste the input but you never show where you got that input line. :D
I was trying to figure that out, not sure why he didn't include that info.
@@jato2478 glad im no the only one lol
Here:
Should I wait till the new update comes out or can I use the mods without uninstall them later ?
Most if not all mods will be broken when update comes out, unless mod authors update them, which most will but they won't be usable straight on update release
@@LastKnownMeal thx, I really want to play The witcher again, but I have the fear that my game will crash after the update :/
Am I the only one having problem with the file tabs on nexusmods? I try to open the file tab or any other and it just opens the description tab.
Hmm, not really, but maybe try another browser or reset cookies, might be some bug.
@@LastKnownMeal It helped refreshing the site once a tab had been clicked, Strange... But thanks for the video.
I heard that CDPR is using that HD reworked mod for the update
Yup, as a basis for further upgrades
@@LastKnownMeal really hoping they paid him for hes hardwork
LKM said fuck it, ill release the next gen update sinxe CPR wont
No mods will bring back the original E3 2014 gameplay , water render was downgraded no ripples , the combat system was downgraded, the fog in swap area was removed and sun ray was removed that reflect on water . They downgraded the assets as well …. The werewolf design was changed , no transformation from skinny to more muscular one. Moon light was removed . LKM please do the 2014 E3 gameplay comparison and vanilla version. Vanilla movement system feels like you playing Zelda game . Hopefully we get it back with next gen update…If you see 2014 E3 35 min gameplay -Downwarren will see all the details that downgraded…thanks
I am only now looking into mods for this, but I did specifically find one called E3 2014, you should look into it
Can the cloak mod work on 1.32? I can't get it, breaks everything
Oh yeah, I am using it on 1.32 as well, just make sure to copy the thing untill the end like to bind the actual key, if it doesn't then just delete the mod and try again. It definitely has bugs but for me it didn't break the game, although, if you have an error code when the game starts look at what gives you an error, might be another mod.
Immersive HUD? I would think that's the first on anyone's list.
How stable is your game with so many mods on it simultaneously?
Witcher is extremely stable with these mods, I rarely crash
@@LastKnownMeal how are your fps after running all these?
Look better than the crap next gen update!
Not sure why, but I can’t get meadows to work. It’s the steam version 1.32. Tried numerous times and just no luck.
Hmm, what does it say when you put it? Try using Script merger (find guide on yt) or download one by one mod or meadows first to see where it conflicts with other mods maybe
@@LastKnownMeal I will try those fixes. Thanks for the suggestions. Enjoyed the video a lot!
Good video, I guess now I have to install Witcher 3 again. But I still waiting for next-gen update. CDPR nowadays are really slow. Like just look at Techland with Dead Light 2, it's constantly updated, guess it's why they are now number one in Poland. They lied less and delivered more and it's make me sad. :(
When it comes to events and updates yeah Techland has been killing it with constant stream of content, some good some bad, but still, it helps a lot
lied less? sure but delivered more? there is a reason why DL2 has 78% positive reviews on steam while DL1 have 95% and the same goes for numbers of players DL1 lowest 4k highest 14k, DL2 lowest 2.5k highest 4.5k... DL2 is cyberpunk of techland
I’m also waiting for next gen it’s so tempting to jump into the game early
Are you still using your mods over the next gen bs?
Only me that dosent get mods to work for the game? I tried so many things abd tutorials but cant get it to work
It works for, really follow the tutorial properly. Best for you to delete the game and install it again and then watch the tutorial and follow step by step.
The high quality faces look like they are melting.... Anyone else get this?
Just google the fix it will come first. You need to change one thing and it will fix it
Very interesting LKM....but those mods will probably mess up my pc...thanks anyway.
Don't forget the all females are nude mod.
The Cloak didnt work bro ;'(
Does these mods affect performance
Reshade can drop a few frames, the rest nah.
@@LastKnownMealthanks only interested in the rest
Hello, i can not open the "mod menu" by pressing home. How can I open that "mod menu" in step 2 instead?
Super Turbo Lighting is dated, man, Immersive Lighting with Project Resonance reshade is de way.
Yeah, that combo is good but I still personally prefer STL
Doesn’t next gen only apply to Consoles?
Next gen is for all platforms. its ludacris to not include next gen upgrade for PC, especially after CP backlash, and all those delays.
plz send me the notepad code here, my ver does not have it 😐😐😐
from the authors keep mods out to use upgrade
How many fps will i lose after downloading all these mods? 5? 30?
Depends on your gpu, I lose around 10-15 and I rant it before with 1070 without issues
@@LastKnownMeal i have 1660 super
@@Dew-_- me too. same fps then, 1660S is around the same as 1070, should be fine.
hood not working
how to install SCAAR, pls help :
What do you need help with, when you are on the mod website, go to files tab and download only one out 4 options you have, so choose which style you like. Plus on the mod page under installation you have full instructions. Be sure to also add Compatibility Patch mod. But just follow what the mod page says under instructions.
SOMEONE NEEDS TO START A BUSINESS WHERE ALL THE MODS YOUVE SUGESTED ARE IMPLEMENTED RHEN THE COMPLETD WITCHER THREE IS DOWNLOADED OR A SINGLE DOWN LOAD IS DOWNLOADED AND ALL THIS TECHNICAL STUFF IS DOWNLOADED IN ONE SHOT A 50 OR 100 DOLLAR CHARGE TO THE GIFTED COMPUTER TECH GETS THE FEE AND WE GET A FULLY MODED GAME
It doesnt work for me i just did like you but i dont understand it just doesnt works..
Ok i did it know i just installed 1 by 1
What mod doesn't work? Just go one by one and see which one breaks the game and delete it.
@@LastKnownMeal it worked ty
Dont get the Sword on Hip Mod. Shit is mf broken and buggy.
the cloak doesnt work for me. just me?
Did you do everything like I showed it? Check the settings, see if you have it in controls or well key bindings
@@LastKnownMeal yea i followed everything. I can see the animation of him putting on/off the hood/cloak but theres nothing there
@@sebastianshin5275 That happens sometimes, reload the save and it will work, at least it does for me.
Reshade makes my game to not start wonder why tho
Does it just refuse to start or do you get an error? My advice is remove reshade start see if it works then if it works, try putting reshade again
@@LastKnownMeal it just refuses to start and when i remove reshade it works perfectly
The next gen patch is garbage, I'm rolling back to 1.32 and installing these mods. It looks much better and runs better. RT is poorly implemented and not worth it.
why does your gameplay look dull an bland ?
I dont understand why this isnt working for me, the mods dont appear in game
the geralt cloak is not showing up in my input
