As of June 12th, 2023, I no longer release new mods. If any of my current mods need fixing, I will do my best to fix them.

Since I'm no longer playing Classic, I'll keep any of it's versions of my mods uploaded. However, I won't be able to provide support for them.

I've managed to migrate to Next Gen, albeit I did have to get rid of a few mods sadly. Barring some issues with mods, I'm not impressed with it at all and that's all I'm saying on the subject. Haven't progressed much but so far, everything I had on Classic, with some exceptions of course, is still working. If I run into any issues, I will try and update them.

If a mod (those which go in your Mods/mods folder) isn't working, check your priorities. I personally manage mine via renaming folders. If using this method, know that witcher 3 reads mods from bottom to top. Meaning that the topmost mod will overwrite anything below it.
Example:
modA_NumberOne modA_NumberTwo
modA_NumberOne will overwrite modA_NumberTwo. If you would like modA_NumberTwo to override modA_NumberOne, then rename the folder to something like this:
modA_A_NumberTwo modA_NumberOne
Numbers take priority over letters. So renaming as such:
modA_A_NumberTwo modA_0_NumberOne
..will cause NumberOne to jump over NumberTwo and overwrite it. This of course is only valid if the mods alter the same files.
Additional Notes
Please refrain from posting "doesn't work" and not provide additional information. That doesn't help me nor anyone else. Take screenshots or post a list of the mods you use. Please use the bug reports section for this. Also read thhe decription of any other mods you use alongside mine. Sometimes they contain additional information that could help.
If a mod doesn't work and you used either Vortex or the Mod Manager try installing the mod manually. Considering that I have not structured my archives to support these, it's highly likely that they won't be installed correctly.
DLC mods should be compatible with any other DLC mods. However, when it comes to Appearance DLCs that alter the same character (ex.: two appearance dlc mods that alter Ciri's appearances), make sure that ONLY ONE is active on at a time, unless stated otherwise. I have not tested but I don't believe having two active at the same time will crash your game.
I am relatively new to Witcher 3 modding. I do not claim to have all-knowing and all-seeing knowledge of how the game works. Nor do I claim to have more knowledge that veteran mod authors. I am not a professional programmar, artist/designer so know that my knowledge in those areas is limited.
Finally, these are troubleshooting steps that have helped me over the course of my Witcher 3 modding journey. You are not obligated to follow these at any point, nor am I forcing you too.

Basically, the universal answer for questions regarding the above is:
--------------------
But what about Vortex/Mod Manager?
To quote another user:
As for the Mod Manager, I don't use it. I manage my priorities by renaming folders.
But what about Collections?
No support. This feature is terrible and authors are the ones that get blamed when they aren't updated.
