Anyone successfully instal the random encounters mod?

Random Encounters is not compatible with the current version of the game, without some serious editing. Many of it's scripts are incorrect (and were even when it was compatible), causing most of the monsters to not spawn in at all. You will need to know how to write/edit C++ codes to get it working, but you can do it.

 

I do have it up and running on my game (1.32 GOG GoTY) and have been using it since 1.30 edition, but it took me several months of rewriting the code to get it to work. I found several huge code errors in the scripts of the mod, and was able to fix some of them, but I'm a retired senior citizen, so I can sit here for 8 hours a day rewriting it's codes. If you are someone with a job or going to school, I doubt you'd have enough free time to devote to fixing the scripts enough to get it running. I plan to upload this bug-fix for it once it's finished, but, that's not likely to be until late 2020 or more, just because this mod has so many bugs, glitches, and errors even after I was ale to get it to load in the game :sad: I wish it worked better, because when it does work it's a great mod. It's how I've got the Wild Hunt chasing Avallac'h and Ciri in my Avallac'h Playthrough, but if you've ever watched my Twitch steams of it, you know how often this mod crashes the game... on average Random Encounters crashes my game every 12 minutes. It's so unstable, even after getting it to load. :sad:

 

There are a few mod makers who have made various bug fixes for it, and many users claim to have been able to use it through those. If you search Nexus for "Random Encounters" you'll find these. I've not tried those so not sure how they work, but a lot of people say they's been able to get the mod to load with them, though they all, also report that the bugs and glitches are still really bad and cause a lot of game crashing.
