Bei CD Projekt arbeitet man derzeit eifrig an The Witcher 3 und Cyberpunk 2077. "Ältere" Spiele werden allerdings bekanntermaßen nicht vernachlässigt: Auf der vergangenen gamescom hatte das Studio einen umfassenden Editor für The Witcher 2 vorgestellt, der bastelfreudigen Fans das Erstellen eigener Abenteuer ermöglichen soll.

Nachdem ausgewählte Mod-Spezialisten das REDkit schon im Rahmen eines geschlossenen Tests ausprobieren konnten, hat CD Projekt RED jetzt eine Beta-Version zum Download zur Verfügung gestellt .

Das in Form von Update v3.4 dargebotene Update setzt voraus, dass v3.3 installiert ist. Im Falle der Steam-Version wird The Witcher 2 automatisch auf den aktuellsten Stand gebracht.

1. Download the latest patch 3.4 and install it.

2. Create folder called “UserContent” in your Witcher 2 folder in Documents, e.g. *Documents\Witcher 2\UserContent - this is where you will put the downloaded mods. Make sure you have enough space on the partition with My Documents to store mods there.

3. After the mod is downloaded, unzipped and copied into UserContent folder, run userContentManager.exe which can be found in the Witcher2/bin folder. There make sure you have checked the box next to the mod that you would like to launch.

4. You have two options:
4.1 Save and Run - this will save your mod choices and boot the game.
4.2. Save and Exit - this will save your mod choices and exit the User Content Manager.

5. Once you’ve chosen the mod and run the Witcher 2, go to New Game/User Content and select the mod you’d like to play.

1. Make sure The Witcher 2 is updated to patch 3.3.

2. Download all five files on the right side. If your browser warns you against downloading the installation files ignore the warnings. The REDkit installation files downloaded from this website are completely safe.

3. Run TW2EE_REDkit.exe and go through the installation. Remember, install it in The Witcher 2 installation folder, as prompted.

4. At the end of installation, leave the box checked and run REDkit with strings and voiceovers export. It needs to be done before the REDkit is first booted and it may take up to 10 minutes.
