Kidnappers' Door Bugfix

Usually when Alvin gets kidnapped in Chapter 3, Dandelion tells you that he's been kidnapped, leads you to where Alvin is being held, and the door unlocks, so Geralt can go in and battle the forces of evil.  But every once in awhile, the door doesn't unlock properly.  I've made a bugfix for that, at the request of TheSilentShadow.

This fix will give Geralt a scroll -- to be found in his quest inventory, so it doesn't take up a slot in his bag -- that will unlock the doors to the kidnappers' hideout.

ONLY use this fix if you have a bug; it's not a shortcut mod.  ONLY use this fix if Dandelion has told you that Alvin has been kidnapped and has led you to the building in the Temple Quarter where he's being held, but when you get there, you find that the doors are still locked.

So, you get this:

But that's not what's supposed to happen!  Geralt is supposed to charge in and right that wrong.

So, this bugfix gives you a scroll:

If you read it, then you'll get this:

That unlocks the door, so you can click on the door and have something happen.  Once you open that door, you get the loading screen to the kidnapper's hideout:

There are 8 files that make this work:

INSTALLATION:  This bugfix will conflict with a lot of other mods, but if you're having a problem with your game, you should remove all your mods, anyway, to make sure that none of them are causing the problem.  Once you've unlocked the door to the kidnappers' hideout, you can save the game, then delete the files for this mod and replace any mods you were using.  Deleting this mod will leave you with a black square in your quest inventory where the red scroll for this mod used to be, but that won't harm your game any.

Download the mod. Unzip it, which will give you this README and a folder, KidnappersDoorUnlocker. Put the KidnappersDoorUnlocker folder into your The Witcher Enhanced Edition\Data folder.

Notice that the folder for the mod does NOT go into the Witcher folder where your saved games are; it goes in the Witcher folder where the game data is. This is The Witcher Enhanced Edition\Data.

(If you bought your game from GOG, then your folder will be called "The Witcher Enhanced Edition Directors Cut," but you still want the Data folder that's a subfolder of that.  If you're playing under Steam on Windows, you'll find the necessary folder at Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\the witcher enhanced edition\data.  If you're playing under Steam on the Mac, then look for /Users/<your user>/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/the witcher enhanced edition/The Witcher.app/Contents/Resources/drive_c/Program Files/The Witcher/Data/.)

INSTALLATION HELP FOR THOSE HAVING TROUBLE FINDING THEIR DATA FOLDER: If you have trouble finding your Data folder (Yes, I swear, you DO have one!), then go to the shortcut that you use to start the game, right-click on it, and scroll down to Properties, then click on that. The Properties box that pops up will have a path to your launcher.exe or witcher.exe file in a box labelled Target. Make note of that path! The path to launcher.exe will lead you to your The Witcher Enhanced Edition folder, which will have four subfolders: Data, Launcher, Register, and Syste
