📋 About This Mod
This mod recreates the boat used by the player seen in the Pre-Release material, such as the E3 2013 and 2014 trailers, that is weirdly absent in the final game and is arguably more appealing that the boat we got. The mast and sail has been manually recreated to look as close as possible to the original material where applicable. The mast also sways back and forth as seen briefly in the original videos. You can also use this mod with Hyadum27's Lamp on Player's boat without any issues.
There is also a version that lets you have multiple variants of boats at once, if you want to use that version, install only it and use the Lamp file specifically for this mod and give it priority over other boats mods you might be using.
Installation:
1. Download the file;
2. Extract the file modE3Boat into /The Witcher 3/Mods/ folder (if it doesn't exist, create one);
3. Launch the game.
Uninstallation:
1. Remove the mod from the Mods folder.
