So Witcher Gear , is supposed to be the best, crème de la crème\whatever, but beside the prologue, I got better items from loot (?!), not to mention crafting. And after installing this mod:

it got even worse in the weapon department.

and in the armor department.

 

How worse ? Even superior WG are so weak in comparison to non-witcher ones, that I never used them.

 

So I want to mod the Witcher's Gear armors and weapons. I've looked into some files, and beside a college programming language classes flashback, I got nothing eligible...

Tried again with simpler approach - mod a mod (upgreadable versions of Kaer Morhen armors) - got "traumatized" again, didn't find nothing eligible again...

 

So my questions:

  • -what tool use to create a mod from scratch, and what just to simply tweak one already existing (got the official ModKit+kitchen bit, W3Edit\WolvenKit, xTcModkit)?
  • is there an up to date, step-by-step, modding guide, mainly for weapons and armor editing?
  • what files are responsible for Witcher Gear armor and weapons?
  • where are they?
  • what the parameters like armor, resistances, "look like", and where are they defined?
  • where are Witcher Gear bonuses defined, how they "look"?

For now, I don't know what "string" I'm looking for, or where in the file.

Hell, I don't know what file, and where it could be, and I don't have the time to look "everywhere", and at "every" file.

 

Also, I prefer WinMerge - worked wonders for Stellaris, and other games.

So trying to learn modding, by "script kiddie-ing" existing mod, was a mistake. But finally, I got things going. Even managed to find where the bits responsible for school gear bonuses are located. Though, didn't find the bit for number of pieces of gear required (3/6).

Yet :]
I wonder what will happen if I put all: setBonusAbility(insertschoolbonus) into Teigr...

 

As for tools:

  • ModKit + kitchen - did uncook files, but trying to make mod with doesn't work,
  • W3Edit - works like a charm,
  • WolvenKit - "Pack and install" option is wonky, and it produces many more files than "W3Edit",
  • xTcModkit - is supposed to "unblob" mods, returns only errors.

 

P.S.
CDPR did an awful job, on their, so called, modding manuals, those "bundled" to ModKit.
