This is a port to Next Gen of the Primal Needs mod by stefan3372.

I'm not a modder I'm just a programmer who really wanted to use this mod so be patient with bugs and stuff like that, I'll do my best to fix what i can, as I have already fixed some things that i found but there are still some problems that I'm going to list later.

I changed the controls to not conflict with the game's default input for Pause and Toggle Hud options, so now the Controls are:

  • F7: Drink from shallow water (same as before)
  • F8: Urinate
  • F9: Defecate
  • Toggle HUD input has been removed as there is an option for that in the menu

Now when you Turn Off the Primal Needs HUD off the original Controls Hints UI will show back up.







Food items are also working as before, with expiration and Hunger/Thirst replenishment stats:



** Installation **

I use TW3 Mod manager as it does a lot of work for you.

Instructions are in inputs.txt, but here you go:

* Copy these lines into the input.xml in "The Witcher 3\bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc\" right above line : "<!-- [BASE_CharacterMovement] -->" (TW3MM does this part automatically, so you can check first if these lines are there if you use it)*
<Var builder="Input" id="PNPee" displayName="PN_input_Pee" displayType="INPUTPC" actions="PNPee" />
<Var builder="Input" id="PNPoop" displayName="PN_input_Poop" displayType="INPUTPC" actions="PNPoop" />
<Var builder="Input" id="PNDrinkShallow" displayName="PN_input_DrinkShallow" displayType="INPUTPC" actions="PNDrinkWater" />

* Copy these lines into the input.settings in documents on the beginning (TW3MM does this part automatically, so you can check first if these lines are there if you use it): *
[Exploration]
IK_F7=(Action=PNDrinkWater)
IK_F8=(Action=PNPee)
IK_F9=(Action=PNPoop)

* Add this line to 'dx11filelist.txt' and 'dx12filelist.txt' in "The Witcher 3\bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc\" this is needed for the New Gen update: *
PN.xml;

After installing, go into the mod settings in the game menu and load the default configurations on all of the tabs

** Conflicts with Friendly Meditation**

New optional download was added for easier merging with Friendly Meditation:
When the conflict in the file meditationClockMenu shows up, check which file is the one from Primal Needs and select that one for the merge in the toolbar: Merge->Select lines from X everywhere.
PS: This is the first mod i ever upload and especially since it's a mod from another user, i'm not sure about all of the configurations i should use, so if I choose anything wrong, let me know
