It's not a blender problem, it really does have holes, you can see it if you view the fbx files. And I haven't found what fills them yet.

Activation code is not required, you just need to patch to at least version 1.35. The automated patching was down for a few days because of a server problem, but should be working now. If you ever have problems again, just manually update.

The usual cause is if you're using one of the texture mods from an older version of the game. If you are, remove the mod and try again.

There are two categories of mods for TW2 - those that use the toolkit, and those written before the toolkit came out. The ones from before the toolkit need to be installed as described in the mod instructions and will NOT show up in the content manager. CEO comes into that category.

so when i download install and get the mods onto nexus mod manager everything looks good green check marks on mods but then i go to launch game i click on mods and the is nothing in the content manager so i cant run the game with the mods. do you know why that might be happening The installation method will depend on whether you're using mods that were developed using the toolkit, or older mods that weren't. The advice I gave in this particular thread was given in April 2012, well before the toolkit came out. If it's an older mod, the method I described will still work. It doesn't use the "mods" option under Launch Game. If it's a new mod, you're probably better asking in the comments for the mod itself, or start a new thread here and ask about it.

Thanks.

My apologies if this has already been addressed somewhere - I saw that there had been issues generally over the last few days. But where have all of the Witcher mods gone? Mine have all disappeared, and looking at the filecount, I think a lot of others have too. Someone over at the Witcher forums said there'd been a database crash? Is there a thread anyway discussing it?

I think that the chances are fairly high that a mod updated for EE would work OK with 2.0. It's definitely worth trying. Also just check the date of last update for mods - there are a LOT that weren't updated for EE anyway.

No, it doesn't really need anything much. The one mod that I'd have considered essential was incorporated into the game itself on one of the patches. There are some excellent mods like CEO and Better Combat that enhance the game, but my recommendation would be to leave them until a later playthrough. But as the toolkit isn't out yet, there aren't a lot of mods that make big changes to the game.

Yes, these forums are pretty dead for The Witcher at the moment, everyone's over at the main Witcher forums because of the TW3 announcements. If you're unsure about what to do on this particular quest, leave the area and then come back and visit him again. If you're unsure about what quests are currently available, check your journal - there should be a complete list there.

OK - I found you over at the Witcher forum. Your savegame is waiting for you there :)

The mods should come with installation info. There's no mod manager for the game. The toolkit hasn't been released yet.

Make sure that the file is in CookedPC/items, not directly in CookedPC. You may need to create the items subfolder if it doesn't already exist.

The problem with savegames from the middle of the game is that you lose all of your equipment, leveling, decisions. The best approach is to upload your OWN savegame from just before the fight to a hosting site such as mediafire, and then post a link asking for someone to play it through for you. I've done two in the last week, it's not an unusual request - some peoples' PC's just can't handle this fight, and it's a shame to miss out on the rest of the game because of it. It would probably be faster to do it across at the main Witcher forums. There're always threads going with others who have similar requests, such as this one: http://en.thewitcher.com/forum/index.php?/topic/33397-may-i-have-some-help-with-the-kayran-please/ If you prefer to post here, no problem. PM me with the link (I only usually check the Nexus forums every few days)
