Yeah, I really regret not buying the Steam version now. Every time they issue a patched I swear something is messed up and I have issues installing and have to start over. I hate their patchers. If there is an issue it is never clear and tells you what is wrong.
After predownloading all that data I downloaded the remaining today. It was corrupt apparent so I hit ignore but then while that was going I read there was a fixed file so I aborted the install and it said it was restoring to previous state replaced the corrupt file with the supposedly fixed one. Now I am getting different errors about more corrupt files ugh.
I think if this game goes on sale on Steam tomorrow I will just say screw it and buy it there. I am so over this Polish patching business.

You pretty much have to fail the setup initially right (to get to the point where you can add two files?)

Replaced the two files. The installer went (much) longer this time. But at the end the error popped up again.
Why the fuck does the game hate me.

Hmm? No. I never failed the setup. I canceled out of the installer before letting it get started after I read about the issues. You just download the files and copy them to the patch download folder (C:\downloads by default) and overwrite what's already there.
Haha, I wouldn't have posted that if it wasn't the EE, mang.

You're not the only one, my GOG download was also corrupted -_- , so I downloaded it again, merging files with fingers crossed. Probably because the first GOG version also had the problem, but apparently they fixed it..

Okay I'm at the point where I have the 10 gigs downloaded. I opened game and it said EE ready to download. I clicked ok, then it said EE ready to be installed (that was 1 second). Do I cancel now or let it do its thing. The reason I ask is because what about the other ~300 megs?
Edit: I think I get you, I'll just dl the parts and cancel this setup.
oh god can't breath

Spoiler tag this shit man.
No, let that go, because it'll download the actual patcher EXE. After that, it'll automatically open up an installer and that's what you close out of. Then replace those files and run TWEE_Patch.exe from C:\Downloads
I'm just waiting for the remaining 8gbs to download. I decided to uninstall like a minute before someone posted the fix lol.

Replaced the two files. Install completed successfully. It's really too bad that simple mess up is causing so much trouble. The prepatch was a ticking time bomb. Luckily the fix is relatively painless.

So is there a fix for installing?

They're just publishing the game. I don't think they have rights other than that to the IP.
OH, okay! Whew!
I forgot about that. Didn't they have legal trouble with someone... THQ maybe? and then WB wound up getting the rights to distribute the console version or something?
Batman VS Geralt DLC incoming.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
Nooo, now it will run even worse for me.
Any impactful optimisations for lower end systems?
I`ll do that if that fixes the purple glitch...waiting for those who have that problem.

The worst thing of all I dont even know which file is causing the error now.
Im downloading file by file with my shitty internet connection and its 2:18 am here, so its not going to be fun.
And im pretty sure it was my connection the one that gave me so many errors the first time during the big patch download, and thats why the majority of my files seem corrupt. So fuck jazztel, fuck them in the ass, liars and thiefs.

No idea. They also added pigs
.I booted up a couple of save files to try and spot any immediate differences. The only other thing I noticed was (Act II spoiler)
the comet now looks different
Updates with the new content system are applied to a copy of the files rather than the original files, which in Witcher 2's case means an extra 16 GB of disk space is temporarily needed.
The advantage is that you can actually switch to offline mode and play the older version.
Runs fine on my system, like it used to.
A few things.
- Graphics look the same, no updated lighting.
- Shadows are still dithered and ugly
- Pad controls remain unchanged. The 360 version has descriptions of each Sign, something this game lacks. I never remember what they do.
I can see why they released this for free.

It has new quests, areas, cinematics, dialogue, and a handful of new little details to spruce up the package. You're talking like they cheaped out.

They didn't have to release 5 hours of extra game play for free.
Yep,it was 21 GB for me...
Yeah, well.

Well what? Did you expect them to give you a whole new fucking game for free?
