Description

This mod fixes quite a lot of journal entries for quests - adds missing paragraphs and fixes some of them that are triggered incorrectly. There are so many quests that are bugged, so this is the third (and hopefully, the last) of a series of bugfixes aimed to add the missing, concluding, paragraphs -> in this one, part1 main quests, blood and wine quests (not all major ones) and wolf school scavenger hunts are fixed.

This is compatible with more languages -> i never add things that are not in the game, i only fix bugs unrelated to any language, so all the strings for all the languages should be there. All the fixes work only BEFORE triggering the part of the quest that results in the journal entry -
so i suggest to keep this mod for your next gameplay:)

Contract: the monster of tufo
  • 2 missing paragraphs added. The first one is added after you kill the monster of tufo, the second one is added after the quest concludes AND you have told the husband about his wife's affair. This option also replaces the previous concluding paragraph that was supposed to trigger only if you kept the fact to yourself.
  • SPOILER - My personal favourite is to give the locket to the woman, then add it back via console command (id: mh701_lost_locket - just think of it that Geralt steals it back after the woman goes to sleep) and give to the husband - i hate those arrogant arseholes that view themselves as great and do not value their servants, but i hate stupid, ugly, gold digging unfaithful hoes even more:)
Contract: bovine blues
  • 1 missing paragraph added after you accept the quest (from the quarry manager).
Scavenger Hunt: Wolf School Gear Upgrade Diagrams - Part 1
  • 1 missing paragraph added after the quest concludes.
Scavenger Hunt: Wolf School Gear Upgrade Diagrams - Part 3
  • 1 missing paragraph added after the quest concludes.
Scavenger Hunt: Wolf School Gear Upgrade Diagrams - Part 4
  • 1 missing paragraph added after the quest concludes.
Scavenger Hunt: Wolf School Gear Upgrade Diagrams - Part 5
  • 1 missing paragraph added after the quest concludes.
Scavenger Hunt: Wolf School Gear Upgrade Diagrams - Part 6
  • 1 missing paragraph added after the quest concludes.
Family matters
  • 1 missing paragraph added after you find Anna AND realize it is her
  • there are 2 possibilities -> first you talk with the fisherman and get to know about Anna's marks, then you see her being controlled by the crones, the other possibility is if you first find out about Anna being controlled by the crones and then talk with the fisherman and get to know about Anna's marks.
Envoys, vineboys
  • 1 missing paragraph added after departing to Toussaint.
Father knows worst
  • 1 missing paragraph added after you tell Hugo that you'd find the condenser - this was known to sometimes trigger, sometimes not, now it always triggers.
Echoes of the past
  • 1 missing paragraph added after the quest concludes.

Bonus content
The following content was not really intended by the developers - you'd trigger only one journal entry depending on how you'd start the quest..however, if you start quests from noticeboard, in the following quests, the journal entry is so meager that i realized it would make much more sense to add a journal entry that you'd get while talking to the quest-giver first.

Knight for hire
  • 1 paragraph that you get if you start the quest from Camerlengo himself is always added after you first speak to him and properly start the quest.
Goodness, gracious, great balls of granite
  • 1 paragraph that you get if you start the quest from the patron himself is always added after you first speak to him and properly start the quest.
A knight's tales
  • 1 paragraph that you get if you start the quest from the woodcutter himself is always added after you first speak to him and properly start the quest.
There can be only one
  • 1 paragraph that you get if you start the quest by overhearing Bors and Percival talk about the isle is always added after you hear them talk about the island (they are at the tourney grounds).
Hunting a witch
  • 1 missing paragraph that was supposedly added if you met Keira before triggering this quest (impossible?) is added after you find her.

Bonus information - make sure you start The Black Widow treasure hunt only AFTER you find both of the other lovers and read their respective letters from the Bella de Guennes! The journal entry differs whether you previously found none, 1 or both of them!

This mod only adds the paragraphs that are missing, i will not be fixing "duplicate" paragraphs for quests like "crime and punishment" if you leave the guy be and then save him, for the quest "hazardous goods" or if you cure Morkvarg, get the sword reward but then kill him...

I will also not be changing the order of the journal entries

Please, do not ask me for mod requsts or bug requests. I only fix the things that I encounter in my gameplay and that bother me. If you want something done, try to fix it yourself- i will be very happy to give you advice and guidance provided that i know it. I do not really care about bugs like npcs walking in circles, bad lightnings, shadows, graphics etc, so i'll never be fixing those even if i encounter them - you could probably ask some immersion modders for those, i mostly fix gameplay issues;)

Installation

Place modFixJournalEntriesDlc inside your *installation path*/mods folder
Place modFixJournalEntriesDlcBonus inside your *installation path*/mods folder for the bonus journal entries described above

You cannot resolve any conflicts, because this is not a script/xml based fix

WIP

The same as in my NGP fixes, minus journal entry fixes.

Right now, i have completed almost all of the blood and wine sidequests and i will be starting with the main storyline shortly (going to kill the bruxa in corvo bianco), then i will proceed with ugly baby quest to go to kaer morhen (part 2), and after i am done with kaer morhen, i will start hearts of stone main storyline, then finish the part 3 to complete the game. Every bug (gameplay, conversation, journal entry) that i find and fix will be uploaded here as well

If you like the bugfixes, endorsing them would make me very happy - and motivate me to produce more of them (there are a few more i'd like to add) - it's the least you can do for me:) After all, I'm spending time to fix and upload some overlooked stuff for free:)
