📋 About This Mod

A 100% standalone rebirth of the classic Auto Apply Oils for Next-Gen 4.04+ & Remastered 5.0. Completely fixes CDPR's broken in-game setting. Smart threat radar, sword-aware coatings, in-game options menu, and zero vanilla script conflicts.

AUTO APPLY OILS REBORN

The definitive, conflict-free resurrection of the legendary Auto Apply Oils mod — built from scratch for The Witcher 3: Remastered (Update 5. 0) & Next-Gen (Patch 4. 04+).

100% Standalone • Completely Bypasses CDPR's Broken In-Game Accessibility Option


WHY AUTO APPLY OILS REBORN?

In Update 5. 0 Remastered and Next-Gen, CD Projekt Red introduced a native "Auto-apply oils" option under gameplay/accessibility settings. Unfortunately, as hundreds of players across Nexus and Reddit have documented: the built-in game option is fundamentally broken. It frequently fails to apply oils, gets confused during encounters, fails to react upon weapon draws, and relies on buggy internal flags.

Auto Apply Oils Reborn does NOT rely on CDPR's broken option.

Engineered from scratch using modern REDengine 3 script annotations (@wrapMethod), this mod runs an independent, high-frequency threat radar that evaluates hostile entities in real-time, calculates threat density, accounts for active soft-locks and bosses, and reliably coats the correct blade the split-second combat begins — all with zero core game script modifications.


KEY FEATURES

1. Intelligent Threat Radar & Priority Engine

  • []Dynamic Proximity Scanning: Scans surrounding enemies within a customizable radius (default: 30 meters) every second during combat.[/]

    []Direct Lock-On Priority: Whenever you soft-lock or hard-target a specific enemy, the mod immediately prioritizes that monster's category over ambient minions.[/]

    []Boss & Miniboss Overrides: Boss encounters automatically override standard swarm tallies.[/]

    []Majority Threat & Distance Tie-Breaking: In mixed packs (e.g. Drowners + Water Hag), coats for the dominant threat, using distance to break ties.[/]

2. Sword-Aware Coating Logic

  • []No Wasted Coatings: Drawing your Silver Sword strictly evaluates monster categories (Necrophages, Specters, Relicts, Vampires, Elementa, Draconids, Cursed Ones, Insectoids, Ogroids, and Hybrids).[/]

    []Steel Sword Precision: Drawing your Steel Sword strictly evaluates Humans / Nonhumans (Hanged Man's Venom) and Beasts (Beast Oil for wolves, bears, panthers).[/]

    []You will never see Hanged Man's Venom erroneously applied to your Silver blade or monster oils applied to Steel.[/]

3. Auto-Replace Existing Oil Toggle (In-Game Menu)

  • []Enabled : If you transition from fighting Drowners (Necrophage Oil) to a Fiend (Relict Oil), the mod automatically swaps your coating to ensure maximum combat effectiveness.[/]

    []Disabled : If toggled OFF, respects whatever oil is already on your blade and will only coat a bare weapon once the current charges expire.[/]

    4. In-Game Mod Settings Menu

    Full options menu located directly under Options → Gameplay → Mods → Auto Apply Oils Reborn:

    • []Enable Auto Apply Oils: Master toggle (ON/OFF).[/]

      []Auto-Replace Existing Oil: Allow or disallow replacing active coatings (ON/OFF).[/]

      []Prioritize Boss Enemies: Boss override toggle (ON/OFF).[/]

      []Hostile Scan Range: Proximity radar slider (15m to 50m).[/]

      []Show HUD Toast Notifications: Clean on-screen toast display (ON/OFF).[/]

      []Notification Duration: Adjust display length (1 to 8 seconds).[/]

    5. Zero Script Conflicts & High Performance

    []Built strictly with Next-Gen script annotations (@wrapMethod).[/]

    []Zero vanilla file overwrites — does not touch r4Player.ws, playerWitcher.ws, or any core files.[/]
