Official Mod Tools Arrive for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

[bp9801]

Gamers everywhere have been enjoying The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt over the last several months, with CD Projekt RED's stellar RPG keeping many people entertained for hours on end. If you want a little more to your game, however, and need something beyond what CDP has already provided with the free DLC, perhaps some mods will strike your fancy? Earlier today, CD Projekt announced the Witcher 3 Modkit and a suite of modding tools to give you a little more with your game. The Modkit allows for texture import and export to change up how items look in the world, new meshes can be inserted to completely replace in-game models, and scripts can be implemented to change up existing files or bring in whole new ones. Want to change up some item stats? Now you can!

The Modkit can be downloaded from the Witcher 3 Nexus page, along with four mods to give a taste of what the tools can do. These sample mods are all bundled in one download and are based off the official modding guide CDP released. One replaces Geralt's starting outfit, another changes up Roach's appearance, the third changes up some scripts for bombs, and the final one covers scripts for an equipment set. The Nexus has also updated its Mod Manager to version 0.56, but because of how it is set up with the game folders, it will only work with mods made through the Modkit. Older mods and mods made without the Modkit will still work, of course, just not with the Nexus Mod Manager.

One thing that CDP does not intend to release anytime soon is a full Redkit for The Witcher 3 to allow modders to change up everything in the game. Maybe someday that tune will change, but for now, the Modkit will be it.
