4.04a_launcher Version Released NO SCRIPTS WERE CHANGED!
Message from CD Projekt Red:
We've just released a service update for The Witcher 3 on PC to make the upcoming transition to CD PROJEKT Red account seamless. The update won't change the game version or affect mods.
Meanwhile, GOG version now get a REDLauncher.exe, similar to the Steam version.
Hello I've seen you in the comments of a few mod pages and from what I understand, you're a master at this stuff so I thought it would be appropriate to ask you. In the comments of the mod called Combo Blood, someone shared the 4.04 version of the mod and I downloaded it. It was working fine but I noticed something. There are no traces of blood left when I deal critical damage. It's like there's nothing. This is very disturbing. Can you find the reason for this? thanks. mod link : Combo Blood (Next-Gen Update)-v4-04 - Google Drive
We is a huge news for mod creators. We might be able to create quests and landscape, and easily edit files. There is also a chance another update is incomming for 2024.
LOL But it's such a bummer to have to update all these mods now, the only reason I would do the update just to get my playtime recorded in steam. Otherwise I can just play the game fine through mod manager. Witcher 3 the game that I will never finish, cuz every time I'm like "just one more mod"
Run either Steam or GOG, where you bought the game. Either it detect the update, or you have to right-click and ask to verify if an update is avalaible.

i am getting this kind of error how can i solve it
Let me teach you that WinRAR or 7-Zip are compressor application that can compress folder into .zip, .rar or .7r file format, in order to save space to the hard drive but also impossible to write/read unless you have the corresponding tool.
Why I explain that? Well blob0.bundle and metadata.store are the same thing (to simplified the explanation). They are compressed files that contains xml, w2mesh, w2phases, csv, etc... all compressed in the single bundle format but impossible to write/read unless you have the tool.
We can't really tell whether a mod is Next Gen Compatible or require to update by simply look "blob0.bundle" and "metadata.store". But instead look their "content", inside those files. Script Merger (or WolvenKit for modder) can read them and tell what's their content.
You can have for example a mod that the "blob0.bundle" only contains "dlc\dlc13\data\gameplay\items\def_13_items.xml". According to Next Gen Changelog, this mod is Next Gen Compatible. Then a mod where one of the files inside "blob0.bundle" is "characters/npc_entities/main_npc/triss.w2ent". This one is not Next Gen Compatible, unless it was updated or made specifically for Next Gen.
If you have more questions or wish to know more. Feel free to joins Wolven Workshop.
Cool cool so I need to unpack them and check, got it! Im trying to clean install this mod More Blood on V4.03, I've already done the script file. I have to look into the bundles.. will do hopefully
So I managed to unpack the bundle using QuickBMS and found that all the files are textures/assets .w2rig .w2p .w2ent .w2mesh .xbm Which I would assume it's safe to use if they haven't been changed/removed.
Two last things: 1- What about the metadata.store file, how to check for it? 2- The string file is encoded when I open it in notepad ++ to run the comparison, why would a mod use a string file? for the menu?
I am still playing 1.32 myself, but I am making mods (for possible release) and back-porting mods, and the information you are providing here saves me so much time! 👍

Don't install the patch until almost all your mod have been updated!!
blob0.bundle
metadata.store
Thank you for all the contribution to the Witcher modding scene
