Need help with mods! HELP

[Peg-Leg Protagonist]

im trying to set up a few mods that will help further enhance the game. some of them need configuration through the mod menu within the game, but after looking into it further i did what was recommended but it still isnt showing up. can anyone help?

[chris.boney]

what mods? anything with a mod menu generally uses an xml which needs to go here -
\Steam\steamapps\common\The Witcher 3\bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc

when you launch the game, have a look at the main menu screen for a "mods" category.
if you installed things properly then the mod's menu settings should be in there.

a few different ones, such as the friendly HUD. I did a few different things but now it just comes up with a list of script errors such as this one :

Error [content0]game\quests\conditions\questitemquantity.ws(22): Unknown base class 'IInventoryScriptedListener'

I fixed the others but this particular grouping of errors i couldnt fix.

not all mods are compatible with each other. either add one mod at a time to see which one errors first or try mod merger to fix the errors.

only .xml files should go there. not folders.

post a link to the specific mod so i can take a look at the file contents.

AMM - The Appearances Menu Mod (AMM 2.2.1 Scripts and Horse Mod)
https://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/780/

you need to make sure you follow all of these instructions properly.

*copied & pasted from the mod page*

- Copy the bin folder to the <Witcher 3 install folder> (which has a "bin" folder already NOT the folder where the ".exe" is).
This step will copy the AMM.xml and AMMRoach.xml to the right place.
(which is <Witcher 3 install folder>\bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc)

- Copy the DLCAMM and DLCAMMHORSE folders to your <Witcher 3 install folder>\DLC

For the following steps make a backup of the original files in case you screw something up.
(Make the backup to another folder, else the changes will not apply and your keybidings will not not work)

"inputs.txt" content have to be copied and pasted to the beginning of input.settings.
(Which is located in <My Documents>\The Witcher 3)
(If you set this to Read Only, uncheck the box, it have to be writeable or will not save the config)

"hiddenxml.txt" content should be pasted in the hidden.xml file ABOVE THE LAST </VisibleVars>
Like this > http://i.imgur.com/EQKQXGd.jpg (beware that the current version has much more lines)
(hidden.xml is located in <Witcher 3 install folder>\bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc)

"inputsxml.txt" content should be pasted in the input.xml file BELOW THE FIRST <VisibleVars>
(input.xml is located in <Witcher 3 install folder>\bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc)

IF Even then It fails, try to add near or between existing entries!

IMPORTANT: You have to ADD the lines! DO NOT replace/delete the existing ones of the original files.

Getting something like this:

Then Ingame you will have this:

(The current version has more keybindings)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

from what i can see, these 2 files need to go in -
bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc
AMM.xml (288 kb)
AMMRoach.xml (47 kb)

also;

data from "hidden.xml" & "input.xml" from the mod, needs to be copied and pasted into your own current files of the same name in -
bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc

these folders go inside your dlc folder.
DLCAMM
DLCAMMHORSE

this folder goes inside your mods folder.
modAMM

(amm does clash with a lot of mods.)

im still getting content0 warnings and errors. even after disabling all the mods i have for the game. and no matter where i look for answers no one seems to know the solution for these specific errors

Try using the nexus mod manager

Also verify game files to fix your current issues. Some data probably got a bit messed up in installing the mods, and veryifing the data will replace the messed up data.

there are a few files that download as 7z files, not sure how to fix that

[bgray9054]

7z files are compressed - they're just another form of a zip file. Go out on the web and install 7-zip, it'll be able to open those for you.

[Peg-Leg Protagonist]

so a 7z file will open up in the 7-zip? what would i need to put into the mod manager from there?

Just like a zip file, depending on the mod, it'll probably just have the modfolder inside of it. You drop the modfolder into your Witcher 3\Mods folder.

Just to add - read the description of the mod you're downloading - most you just drop into the Mods folder, but sometimes they'll have a DLC folder, or other specific things you have to do to implement them properly.
