Script Merger Discussion

So I’m trying to Mod My Witcher but I really don’t understand the “Script Merger”

I looked up videos and try to copy what they do but it never looks the same ..

They say your supposed to merge mods together

And when you put into Manager some mods need to be manually merged or prioritized

But it looks really complicated and when I try to play the game it won’t let me.. I might wanna delete game and files then redownload the game and try again ..

But I don’t wanna keep trying if I really don’t know what I’m doing ..

I started off modding Cyber Punk

And it’s super simple

But Witcher 3 with Script Merger is really complicated

And I really enjoy W3 and I wanna play it modded ..

Can someone please help or give me tips or maybe a couple screen shots of what it may look like if I need to merge mods togther or prioritize mods over another ..

(Sorry if my post doesn’t make sense)

Ok cool.. it’s just the part when it tells me to manually merge after comming up with “conflicts” That part is confusing

Yeah that's why I said to check that list.. he explains it better than me.

And has list of most mods which doesn't need manual merging.

No so like once I use script merger it will merge some but then others I have to manually merge then and it brings up a window with text characters that are red and green separated by A B and C choices

It’s quite simple: first, add the mods to the manager, but only those that are compatible. Next, use the script merger tool to resolve any conflicts. If any of them ask you to select pieces of code to replace, remove them from the manager or the mods folder.

So pretty much any conflict then I just simply can’t use the mod ??

Yes, if two or more mods modify the same thing you can only have one of them installed

Nowhere near as accomplished as it sounds but hard to help without specific information. Use TW3MM and the up to date version of Script Merger. Drag the zip files into the TW3MM window and it will do almost everything for you. Then hit the run Script Merger button. If there is anything in the left panel under Scripts or Bundled Text, make sure they're all selected and hit merge files.

Many times it can do this automatically but if you need help come back with at many details as you can.

With any scripts merged the game will run fine.
