📋 About This Mod
DESCRIPTION:
This is just a very minor modification of the vanilla menu background I made for myself, but thought someone else might like it, so I uploaded it. It gives some slight red hues and organic twirls to the otherwise black vanilla menu background, and a slight red glow around the map, which I like, because it reminds me of the organic quality of the menus in The Witcher 1.
LIMITATIONS and ISSUES:
None that I know of. That beeing said, I could not test the widescreen (wider than 16:9 aspect ratio) version thoroughly, for lack of a widescreen monitor, and I did not test if this works in the next-gen version of the game, since I also don't use that and do not care to install it, just to find out (my heavily modded v 1. 31 easily wipes the floor with next-gen graphics wise - at least in my opinion...).
It should work with both though, given that this is only a very minor change, and other very similar mods apparently do. Let me know if it doesn't...
EDIT: It has been reported to work fine with widescreen as well as on next-gen.
COMPATIBILITY:
This should not conflict with any mod, that doesn't change the menu graphics.
INSTALLATION:
1. Download one of the . 7z mod archives. You can only use one...
2. Unzip directly into your Witcher 3 folder/mods, or (much recommended) use The Witcher 3 Mod Manager to install:

PERMISSIONS and CREDITS:
This contains no work whatsoever by other modders. Most work went into figuring out how to do this, and creating a suitable graphical template
to use. If you wish to mod and reupload any of this, please refer to and abide by the 'Permissions and Credits' section above.
FINALLY:
If you use and enjoy this, leave an endorsement. It's appreciated.
If you like the organic style, be sure to check out the very cool "E3 UI and HUD" mod. It just changes a little too much for my personal liking, but is a real amazing work of art, absolutely incomparable to the quick edit I made here. You'll find it here:
