Nightsolo's The Witcher 3 Recommended Mods

Mods I recommend:
Script Merger
  extract this to a folder that is not the game install folder.
Menu Filelist Updater
  put this in the base game's installation folder.

I recommend against Dynamic Outfits. The last time I used it, it caused crashes and other bugs.

Create a folder in the game install folder called [mods]

Troubleshooting:

  1. After installing each mod, delete the folder [mod0000_MergedFiles] from the [mods] folder, and MergeInventory.xml from the Script Merger folder.
  2. Then run Script Merger, followed by Menu Filelist Updater.
  3. If you get a conflict, give priority to the higher number mounted mod.
  4. Finally, run the game. On the first run, start a new game and skip to the combat practice. Start the tutorial to be certain that combat works. An autosave occurs just before this.
  5. After each mod, when you run the game, click Continue, then hit Vesemir once before quitting and starting this process over at step 1.
Add mods in this order, and put a number after the word "mod" in the folder name. e.g. [mod01CommunityPatchMenuStrings]
In the Script Merger program, after installing all the below mods, in the left pane, select the top checkbox to merge all. Minimize all other windows so you can see the dialog box and click okay about 65 times.
There should be no manual conflicts to solve.
