This won't be possible without CDPR modding tools and work of all amazing mod authors. Don't forget to endorse the mods – and enjoy your remastered game!
IMPORTANT: make sure to follow instructions in the video closely. There are plenty of specific instructions and options to choose from. Follow the video tutorial carefully. You also should have GOTY version of the game.
NOTE #1 – correction to PLM II installation instructions (made a "typo", beg forgiveness Q_Q) – [WeatherPhoenixLightingMod2] folder should go inside Witcher [DLC] folder. For True Fires mod, the [dlcATrueFiresHDReworkedProjectCompatibility] (second folder in the patch files, forgot to mention that in the video) should go inside Witcher 3 [DLC] folder.
NOTE #2 – reshade preset was updated and ini file name changed. Now its "Photorealistic 2021.ini" instead of "Photorealistic Original.ini"
NOTE #3 – characters lips not moving during generic talks after 1.32 to 1.31 switch? Get this one – https://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/1902
NOTE #4 – some mods were updated after this tutorial was released, which means merged scripts patch provided is [no longer valid], thus it's removed from the "compatibility" folder which now has only load order file. Merged scripts folder was an additional bonus anyway, and due how to Witcher 3 mods are working, it wouldn't be possible for it to be valid endlessly. You'll need to download Script Merger and run it to solve script conflicts on your end – https://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/484
NOTE #5 – HOODS mod was updated after this tutorial was released (hurray!), now you also need to put "mod__hoods" in your /mods folder and run Script Merger
NOTE #6 – W3EE was updated lately, so if you'll choose this mod instead of Redux, you'll need to merge script conflicts yourself – my patch won't work properly atm as it's for previous version of the mod.
NOTE #7 – Redux is now compatible with Gwent Redux, look for the patch at mod files tab.

How to get rid of "failed to compile" error messages in Reshade interface at game launch? Simply delete the respectively named shader files from shaders folder.
Small tweak to Photorealistic Preset – enable Technicolor shader and set it to 10% (0.1) strength – and remember, if things like letterbox, DOF or film grain bothering you – just disable them in the very same GUI.
Hey Sinitar, love your content and tutorials man! I'm having issues with this for some reason. I followed all the steps like you've said and the game won't launch. I even redownloaded it as well. It works but only when it's vanilla. Any advice?
I’m following everything you say I’ve done this multiple time but when ever things get put in the bin folder the game won’t open please if anyone knows how to fix this please help
Mainly when I try to download the reshade
Thank you for putting this together. Excellent content.
Cheers
so i was donwloading the reshade but now my game wont start can anyone help me?
great video guide
i just dont have to
This game is still too good
I cant even find my game folder. Can someone give the the dumbed down version of how to do this shit. I just wanna play it with the remaster but im new to using a PC 😭
Hi, I cannot load my saved games from Version 1.32 after rolling back to v1.31. Do I have to start all over again? Thanks
It says photorealistic.Ini for me, not original. Is that normal, the shaders dont seem to make much change
Hi! So, I'm having this little problem. Lips on the npc (even main npc) not moving. I've tried everything, and I've installed the lips mod too.. some1 plese help? thx.
I been looking for many guides on how to make the Witcher looks great and this video is just AMAZING the way you explain all is great for everyone, appreciate the effort you put it on the video..!!
Just a quick question : I just installed the Enhanced Edition today and for some reason after a few minutes for some reason I’m not able to cast signs..!!
If i want to add multiple mods from the video, do I keep replacing the bin folder every time? Im kind of confused as wouldnt that replace the previous bin folder i added? for example for the asi loader and mod limiter and HD reworked project do I keep replacing the bin folder everytime?
wich of the mods has made my game real dark and can i tweak it?
Will these steps work if you’ve already got the Witcher 3 mod manager and script merger installed?
This is possibly one of the highest quality tutorials I've watched and followed.
Thank you for putting the effort in to create this.
Hi dude ,thanks your tips i successfully modded w3 and now is gorgeous. I wish to contribute your work with a donation. Can you send me the details by p.m.? Thnks
Hey about the Redux gameplay mod, should I also download:
Unification patch for 1.32 – 1.31 – 1.31GOTY – 1.31A game versions (UPatch)
EDIT: Supposedly it's just a bad and unnecessary mod so yeah the answer is no.
thank you very much sir your instructions were very easy to follow I was having a hard time with other vids thank god i found u
where is the root directory folder
hey, great guide that you provided with the mods but even then my dumb ass cant seem to get this right, i already tried everything i could think of to fix my issue but i just cant see the problem, basically my game has no vegetation at all no bushes or trees, if anyone has had this problem or can think of a possible fix pls let me know, and again good work on the guide.
what graphics card did u use to play with the mods and how much fps were u getting
cant figure out for the life of me why I cant get the mods to work, did everything step by step and cant see Supreme or Ulitmate settings
great mods, except my frame rate got halved to 60fps. any way to improve my frame rate without removing the texture mods?
Lad I love your dedication to modding and helping others mod their games, keep it up.
Great video, maybe a bit overwhelming for someone who usually messes up his game with modding
i dont get it..i got through first step of graphic mods (HD Rework) and now i need to overwrite it with tweaks?
does it matter if i have my witcher 3 in default steam folder installed? some people say it should be in another folder that is not windows protected for mods to work properly
its a shame the ps4 doesn't have mods, it would be so amazing.gutted.
Thanks for this!
@Sinitar Gaming what gpu do u use? I have rtx 2060 super would those mods work with it?
Uh so I followed all the steps and it seems like the game has completely forgotten all of my dlc's. I also cant load any of my old saves. Please help me
11:20
Many thanks for this video!
Very helpful. :]
Ryzen 5 3.6ghz , GTX 1650 4Gb and 16GB of ram and on supreme I have like 30 fps, is this normal for my specs or am I doing something wrong ? Thanks
Hello, tried to do this step by step on gog version and as soon as i paste the ASI loader, my game stops working, any reason why?
Your accent makes it so fucking hard to follow what to do
Awesome video man! Followed the guide and the game feels like new! I'm having trouble though with conversations, takes forever to load even though the game is on my SSD, any thoughts on how to fix this? Which mod may cause this? Thanks in advance!
can someone pls help me with the photorealistic reshade mod????? im doing the exact things in the video (and i saw the changes in the description) but i just wont work, it crashes everytime….
Great video, does anyone know what the computer specs are to be able to run this mod?
Wish I could just download on nexus and activate them. I get so lost when it comes to doing all this extra steps
Will these run on ultra for a 2080 super?
Hello! Great video ! I seem to be having a problem when installing the phoenix lighting mod package. Everything works until I try to add the phoenix mod which makes me unable to run the game. Can someone help me ? Thank you !

You're the best!
