All mods and adventures are made and tested with Enachanced Edition of The Witcher. No author can guarantee that his/her adventure/mod will work without The Witcher pached to version 1.4 or higher. All files required to patch The Witcher, including official adventures, can be downloaded from HERE.


Question: I've downloaded additional adventures... what now? Where should I put these files?

Answer: Move the file with adventure (adv file extension) to Shared documents\The Witcher\. Easiest way to find it is to browse My Computer.


Q: I've downloaded some mods... what now?  Where should I put these files?

A: If mod's author won't state otherwise or won't release the mod in form of automated installer, the easiest way to make the mod work is to put all files inside The Witcher\DATA\override folder. If override doesn't exist, create it manually.


Q: When I start one of the adventures an error message shows up - 'save game missing'. What should I do about it?

A: Some adventures are not translated to your language and they won't work when it's selected in options. To play these adventures download and install English (or other) language pack for Enchanced Edition patch, then select supported language in game options.


Q: When playing "Price of neutrality" and "Side effect", in both adventures some bugs occur which make finishing them impossible. I'd like to point out that I've already finished both adventures on patch 1.3 and they were working fine.

A: Official adventures downloaded for patch 1.3 won't work with patch 1.4. After installing Enchanced Edition please download updated versions of adventures for patch 1.4.


Q: I've installed EE and there is no adventure to choose from NEW ADVENTURES list.

A: Official adventures which are part of Enchanced Edition are available as seperate downloads. Adventures should be installed seperately after installing the patch.


Q: Are additional adventures dubbed, or is there only text version of dialogues?

A: Official adventures have audio version of dialogues. In fan-made adventures, unless stated otherwise in adventure description, there's no audio voice recorded.


Q: I've installed mod following mod's description/FAQ and it's still not working.

A: It appears that some distributions of the game ignore some file types when loading the game. It has been reported that some users can't make texture mods to work. It's still not confirmed which distribution (Steam, localisation, EE, Platinum Edition) of the game is mod unfriendly.

Q: Additional adventure x doesn't work with mod z.

A: Most, if not all mods are made and tested only for official game. It is the adventure's author choice to make his work compatible with mods. To avoid possible bugs resulting from incompatibility, it is advised to remove all mods before playing fan-made adventures, unless adventure or mod description states otherwise.
Victory demands no explanation, failure allows none.
