📋 About This Mod
ALL CREDITS GO TO $ereg@, the original creators of the same 1. 32 mod.
If the author updates the mod, I will gladly put down the mod.
What's the purpose?
To be exact, it's a "No More Glowing Monster" mod. It removes the bright morphing of Ghoul, Alghoul and Werewolf so you can perfectly see their transformation.
I take only Next Gen 4. 04 files and apply the mod edit, so it's compatible to the integrated HD Monsters Reworked in the game (see List of unneeded mods for Next-Gen Update).
4. 04 Next-Gen Compatible!
Installation
For newcomers/beginners: I invite you to read The Tome of Witcher 3 Modding
