To all you incredible mod authors for W3, a possible favor

[northtracks]

You guys are amazing and I can't thank you all enough to make Witcher 3 a far more superior experience. I'm not big on making requests but I'd like to request a small favor.

In your descriptions, could you note if it's safe to uninstall mid-playthrough? I don't know anything about modding but from what I've found here and on Reddit is that texture mods are safe to uninstall. It's the other mods I'm curious about. Right now, I'm using Friendly Hud. In the description, wghost81 writes says "Note: This mod doesn't change your save files, so installing or uninstalling it in the middle of playthrough is safe."

Another mod I'm using is called Reduced Falling damage updated by DungeonNoob. It's an example of a mod where I'm not sure if it could corrupt my game saves if I uninstall mid-playthrough. So it would be great to know how the mod affects the game/game save, does it change anything that can't be reversed if removed?

I imagine it's generally safe to remove many of these mods besides the ones that overhaul the game, someone on Reddit mentioned the ghost mode. I just don't know what would be considered an "overhaul", new combat animations? Autoloot? The Gwent Card dealer? I'm eyeing so many of these mods and I'm not sure which are safe for removal.

Thank you for hearing me out

Don't worry about it, you can uninstall like 95% of mods. Only things to look out for are mods that change item stats, skills, etc. Even in such situations there are workarounds, like if you uninstall Ghost Mode you can just use the cleardevelop command and maybe drop and re-pickup your items. Also, look out for DLC quest mods. This is the most extreme case, where uninstalling one and then trying to load a savegame will compeletely fail, as you'll get a "missing required DLC content" message. But there aren't many of those. Script mods, texture mods, meshes, flash stuff (ui/hud)- all that stuff is completely safe to uninstall.
