Delete first the old version

Extract files to your game directory

you'll get "The Witcher 2\CookedPC\environment_levels"

and "The Witcher 2\CookedPC\items\weapons"

(your environment_levels folder must be in the same folder as your pack0.dzip)

Remove your environment_levels folder from The Witcher 2\CookedPC
