All The Mods That I Use For The Witcher II

So, after a lot of people have asked me what mods do i use in each of my screenshots, i decided to list them all here.

BE AWARE: I did NOT make any of these mods, i just listed them in the guide, that is all. The credit goes to the great modders that made them. Just wanted to make that clear, so there will not be any misunderstanding.

All The Mods That I Use For The Witcher III

Graphics

⚫ AI Upscale Textures[www.nexusmods.com]by hub997 hiuuz Wednesday17 BrutalationX
(I also use the below mods, that you can find on the same page as the mod from above)

⚫ AI Upscale Characters Textures X4 VERSION EXTREME

⚫ AI Upscale Environmental Textures X4 VERSION EXTREME

⚫ AI Upscale Weapons Textures X4 VERSION

⚫ AI Upscale Hiuuz's The Witcher III shaved Geralt for The Witcher 2

⚫ All Movies Uspcale 1440p[www.nexusmods.com]by Anarsil69

⚫ The Witcher 2 Tweaker[www.nexusmods.com]by fallenzeraphine

⚫ If your textures load slowly, or don't load at all, it is because of the Uspcaled Textures mod. With the W2 tweaker, you can increase the size of the textures and shadows.
These are my settings:

⚫ Aen Seidhe Eyes[www.nexusmods.com]by flixster

Characters

⚫ The Witcher 2 Character Collection[www.nexusmods.com]by warrenwarrpath
(I use Triss, Letho, Dandelion and Zoltan)

⚫ Force Hairstyle Change[www.nexusmods.com]by Khasim

⚫ Blue Eyes For Triss[www.nexusmods.com]by pypeaf

⚫ EE Vran Armor BB Fixed[www.nexusmods.com]by Supamic
(This mod will replace the more HD files from the AI Upscale Mod, though not by much)

⚫ Pearly Whites Of Rivia[www.nexusmods.com]by Johnysandels

⚫ Witcher 3 Style Geralt - Irregular Pale Custom[www.nexusmods.com]by Don_Kain
(I only use this mod for the eyes, go to Characters>player>model>head and copy geralt_eye/geralt_eye_s.xbm and paste them to
the witcher 2\CookedPC\characters\player\model\head

⚫ The Blue Stripes[www.nexusmods.com]by warrenwarrpath

⚫ The Nilfgaardians[www.nexusmods.com]by warrenwarrpath

⚫ The Scoia'tael[www.nexusmods.com]by warrenwarrpath

Gameplay

⚫ Comfy Couch + Dynamic HUD[www.nexusmods.com]by Presskohle

⚫ FOV Mod[www.nexusmods.com]by DenVdmj

⚫ ALL Items From the Game[www.nexusmods.com]by EvilSpenZer

⚫ All Passive Abilities[www.nexusmods.com]by BaHTsIzBEdEvi
(Use "I Want Them All - Alternative - Changed File", the other versions use base_script, and you don't want to use that, because it will break other mods)

⚫ Double Potion and Oil Durations[www.nexusmods.com]by Dansgaming

⚫ Better Gamepad Controls[www.nexusmods.com]by Massycraft

⚫ Zero Weight Mod[www.nexusmods.com]by raven4444

⚫ Better Imported Items[www.nexusmods.com]by Pezza

⚫ Extended Sex Scenes[www.nexusmods.com]by eliseeff
(Because why not)

⚫ Witcher 3 Icons[www.nexusmods.com]by TheLastWitcher
(Not compatible with Dynamic HUD, can still use both, but the HUD mod won't work)

⚫ Classic Dice Set[www.nexusmods.com]by Majestic123

⚫ OP Basescripts X Poker Camera Fix Compatibilty Patch[www.nexusmods.com]by AlinGeorgian Infintini cyd0nia akalinelif shiki00 Prosthetics XZINED
(Makes the OP Basescripts mod obselete)

Bug Fixes

⚫ Project Mersey - The Witcher 2 Unofficial Patch[www.nexusmods.com]by MerseyRockoff
(This mod is a MUST, it contains every fix ever released + a lot of other things. The mod will conflict with OP Basescript, but the creator of the patch has told me that his mod will work fine without the Base_script one, so install every file of this mod, besides the Base_script file)

⚫ Radovid Persuasion Fix[www.nexusmods.com]by Tgirgis

⚫ Circles of Power - Vigor Bug Fix[www.nexusmods.com]by WutTheMelon

Installation

Most mods go directly to "SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\the witcher 2\CookedPC", some go to "Documents\Witcher 2\UserContent". In any case, each mod will have a description with the installation details on Nexus.

Screenshots

I would like to showcase a few of the great shots i got with these mods installed.

Credits

Again, all the credit for EACH and EVERY mod goes to the authors. I do not take any credit for any of them.
Please do show them some love and endorse their mods at least, because the modders do this out of passion, and love for games, so they do deserve some respect.

Closing Words

This would be all. By default, all these mods are compatible to work with eachother. As long as you do not break anything and install everything as it should be installed. Please let me know in the comments if you have any problems, but bear in mind, that you will get better help from the authors of the mods themselves. If i do stumble upon another mod that i like, i will add it to the guide.
If you are one of the modders who's mod i have showcased in this guide, and you want it removed for whatever reason you may have, just let me know. I don't want to give the impression that i wanted to steal one's hard work.
And as you may have noticed, this guide, unlike the one i made for the Witcher 1, has less mods, and no reshade. The reason for that is very simple, it is easier to merge mods in the Witcher 1. Like with textures. You could use a texture body from a different mod, and a face texture from a different mod. In the Witcher 2, it is not as easy as a drag and drop, and rename. So, the Upscale Textures mod is not compatible with any other mod that replaces the textures, and i'd rather use this one, because i prefer the sharper, higher texture quality.
Another reason is because recently a HUGE mod was released, the Mersey Project. Before that one, you had to install 4 or 6 more mods in order to fix certain bugs.
In essence, i think there are more mods for the Witcher 1 than 2. But regardless, the ones that are made, are well made, and i do recommend using them. And as for Reshade, i personally play without a reshade, because i like how the game looks.
Hope you found this guide useful, and have fun.

Thanks a lot for the guide. I must've installed something wrong though, because now I get 3 talent points per level. Which one might that be? I have installed nothing else besides mods listed here.

[Alin.]

I will try to do the same, my game crashes like crazy!

[Whiteshadow]

In case it helps anyone else...I can't confirm this but two things that seemed to have helped reduce the number of crashes dramatically. 1) I took the Texture Memory Budget down to 600. 2) I stopped keeping other windows open and Alt+Tab'ing back and forth.

For reference, my PC is a beast (RTX 4090).

[Alin.]

I have issues with crashing, my game was only crashing when I was trying to quick save or save, sometimes when loading the map. I really don't know why it's doing that. And I don't think there is a fix for it unfortunately.

[Whiteshadow]

@Alin did you get a lot of crashing? I'm wondering if there is something I might be overlooking that can fix this. I read that deleting most of the saves could help, going to try that.

[Whiteshadow]

I play in HDR on an OLED...for anyone who found the game color scheme to be overly saturated, I recommend the NorthNatural Reshade on Nexus Mods. Just came out last month and so far I like it a lot more than the vanilla coloring.

[Judge]

And thanks for settings in tweaker)

[Judge]

I'm using a keyboard/mouse. It's just did not let me reroll. When my turn to reroll, it's just skips and did not let me choose, or do something. Just skips

[Alin.]

Fixed. As for the dice, the game doesn't make it clear how to actually select them to reroll. Are you using keyboard/ mouse or a controller?

[Alin.]

Goddammit. I think the pictures got removed, one second.
