Game News REDkit: Witcher 2 Gets Modding Tools

Now modders can finally turn it into an RPG amirite

Geralt nude mod.

I guess that makes Cyberpunk modding tools a certainty.

I hope it won't be a disaster like Djinni (the editor for TWitcher 1) was. Then again I am eager to try and see how the RPG capabilities of Red Engine games can be stretched.

Eagerly awaiting for the Phillipa rape mod

Modding tools are always a good thing.

Then I can finally create my Dandelion adventure.

I have a bad feeling about incoming mods.

Can't wait till someone recreates A dance with Rouges with TW2 like rape scenes.

The Witcher 2 has such awesomely high-quality art assets and lighting. Can't wait to try out those tools.

No! Don't go towards the light! Stay away from the light!

Are you considering working on a mod?
Would there be any real advantage to it (besides the gfx) since you already know your ways with DA modding.

Cannot wait for the mod that turns Geralt into a loli.

Aside from working with better tech? Probably not. But I wouldn't mind doing a short stand-alone adventure or something. After working for over a year on a 10-hour campaign that is finally starting to wrap up, it'd be a nice change of pace to just work on something smaller and simpler.

Whoo more boobs!

I doubt the tools will be anything resembling usable, but you never know. The engine itself is certainly quite excellent.

I certainly hope the FOV is moddable.

And camera positioning, movement and horrible interface?

FINALLY!

what was wrong with it? that you needed a modeling program to create new areas? that it was not as easy to access as nwn's toolset? cdp even released exporters for max.

don't get your hopes up too early. hopefully they can release all the third party tools they are using. else it will end like the crippled toolset dragon age suffers from

I dunno. Does The Witcher 2 really use any licensed tech? I got the sense just about everything about the engine was self-contained - custom lighting, vegetation, etc. Maybe modeling and animation stuff will be a challenge, but that's true of many, many mod tools.

Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the RED Engine a heavily modified Unreal Engine 3 or something to that effect? If so it should be pretty feature-complete.

Can't wait to play as Triss with a dick.

It used havok physics and animation, pathengine, scaleform, fmod, and speedtree.

I've never heard any mention of that connection, they've said it's all theirs.

Yeah I know about them claiming it's theirs, it's just that it uses the Documents\Witcher 2\CookedPC string of directories to store settings. "CookedPC" is something that's been native to Unreal Engine for a long while now.

Half of everything is a heavily modified Q code, anyway.
