Witcher Lore Collection

Description

There are many many documents hidden in the game files that were cut during development by either a mistake or a lack of time to implement them properly. This mod restores every single such document and book that never saw the light of day.

There is an entire glossary section hidden in the game files as well (similar to W1 and W2), fully translated in every language, written from the perspective of Dandelion just like character glossary and bestiary, it's a downright crime that it was cut out. It is now restored.

Finally, there were many missing bestiary books and entries that were not obtainable in the game by legitimate means, this mod will address those as well, so now you can have full entries for every monster in the game.

Currently the mod restores 145 books/documents and 48 glossary entries.

As of version 2. 0. 0, the mod has been completely re-built using REDkit with most documents finding new lore-friendly homes, instead of being automatically given to the player at certain times of the story. The core functionality remains the same. The W1 and W2 book add-on for the 2. 0. 0 version will be added at a later date.

The latest version of the mod is only compatible with the Next-Gen version of the game, but older versions can be found under Old Files in the Files section.
