📋 About This Mod
Dear friend, it took me months of hard work, and also testing it hundreds of times, almost 1 year project in total, definitely a Time-Consuming Mission, so if you found it enjoyable please consider supporting me ... : )
What my mod does :
I - More physics when dismembering a human enemy.
II - New animations when enemies are dismembered or gashed;
III - 100% dismemberment chance;
IV - The precision of cutting off limbs has increased;
V - The ragdoll has been improved;
VI - It was added more weight to human enemies´ bodies after death, giving them more realism.
VII - Scaled up the likelihood of using the 2014 E3 gameplay's spinning sword attack, which was completely mitigated at the final game's release;
VIII - I also removed a straight sword attack once it doesn´t work properly. When Geralt hits the enemy with a straight attack after rolling in, I don´t know why, but at this moment, simultaneously, another foe standing at the side of the first enemy is hit also by the sword, so, being one straightforward attack, it shouldn't hit two guys at different angles, right ?...
IX - It was increased the distance that cut human body parts can be seen. They will now have the same view distance as their main body. Also, it was increased the distance you can see their coin sacks or guts (loot items).
X - The position of the human enemy´s body now can be determined by the terrain and how it hits the ground. The body is gonna fall to the ground in a floppy and fleshy way.
XI - Fixed an issue where in the original game human enemies' bodies didn´t have any physics in their heads; I mean, it didn´t have any flexibility, and this issue also affected how other limbs behaved. Now they will work more naturally, turning to the right, to the left, up and down, incline to the sides, depending upon how they hit the ground, which gives more realism. Tiny little details... ;)
XII - Torso dismemberments are now limited to heavy attacks against human enemies and some monsters, providing more visual impact.
XIII - Implemented a variety of death animations for both human enemies and drowners.
XIV - The 2014 crawling animation is back, and now I have implemented it for finishers — specifically when enemies' legs are dismembered. In addition, a better body response based on the sword's hit direction and impact has been added, making dismemberment more brutal than ever.
Files guide:
1. 31 - The original game, also known as the old gen, was released in 2015.
Next Gen - New version of the game, which was released in 2022.
This mod ensures a 100% dismemberment chance, so if you are a sensitive p

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community trust with 198 endorsements and over 13k downloads
- Targets a common complaint in combat mods: stiff ragdolls
- Developer spent months refining the physics, so polish is likely
⚠️ Cons
- Monster dismemberment is only partially affected, not fully integrated
For players who love visceral combat and hate seeing enemies ragdoll awkwardly after a kill. If you're into realistic dismemberment and physics-driven combat, this is worth a shot. Skip if you prefer simple, non-physical combat mods.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check if the mod requires a script extender or specific game version before installing.
- Test on a single enemy first to see how the physics feel in your game.
- If you use other combat mods, load Affliction last to avoid conflicts.
