TW1 All Herbs

All herb spawn amounts are increased

Works 100%. Just played through the whole TW1 Campaign with this and lots of other mods. Herb Spawn amount is 3-5 for all herbs. There are instructions below how to change the amount.

TW1 All Herbs - Read Me

Place all the 34 herb files in the Override directory.

There is a directory called Override inside the Data directory in your game directory.

Example: d:/The Witcher/Data/Override

HOX! Edited/Modded herb spawn amounts won't always work instantly in the game. You have to wait for the the herbs to spawn again after the initial spawn to see if the spawn amount has changed or not.

EXTRA INFO IF YOU WANT TO EDIT THE SPAWN AMOUNTS YOURSELF:

Editing and compiling herb files:

1. Open a .nss file with a text editor 2. Change number 3. Save 4. Open the .nss file with the Djinni game editor 5. Compile/Save 6. You're done.

- You can also do the whole thing with the Djinni only.

Files with an extension .nss are script files used in various games. They can be edited with a modern text editor.

.ncs files are compiled script files. You can use the Djinni game editor (djinni.exe in the same directory as the game exe) to create/compile .nss files into .nss and .ncs files. You won't need the .ndb files which might appear into the directory as well.

A .nss script here looks like this:

void main()

if (GetItemStackSize (GetFirstItemInInventory (OBJECT_SELF)) <= 1)

CreateItemOnObject("it_ingr_061", OBJECT_SELF, 5);

In the .nss script file the "it_ingr_063" or a similar parameter is the handle of a specific herb. "it_ingr_063" is verbena for example and "it_ingr_055" is crow eye and so forth. You can browse the .nss filenames and the parameters in the files in this mod and check out yourself which parameter points to this or that herb. The third parameter is the herb spawn amount. 3rd parameter is the plain number in the function call line after the second parameter "OBJECT_SELF".

If you want to get the original herb files from the game files, you will have to use a 3rd party software to extract .key and .bif files. There is "The Witcher Archive Utility" (TWArhive.jar) in the Net somewhere, which will open a .key file and the associated .bif contents for you. You can use it to extract the originals from the game archives.
