Lykaon


Lykaon will be an adventure with several hours of gameplay and dialogue for The Witcher 2. It is made using Redkit, the official mod tool for the game.
You will be able to explore large landscapes, fight countless enemies and experience a story which will be shaped by the decisions you make.

Lykaon is not finished yet. Presentation and Dialogue are far from finished, there will be a lot more quests, there is no voice acting yet, and of course you will encounter some bugs or other unfinished areas. The adventure also needs to be optimized to run properly, since right now it can only be enjoyed with High End PCs.

Installed and started the Lykaon mod... But (as the author says in the mod's website) it is not yet optimized... At maxed settings (no ubersampling), I get 1-2 fps. Was getting 50 fps in normal game... Does it happen to others too?

Edit: lowered settings to minimum and it runs smooth... maybe there's just one setting that stops everything. Gonna do some tests...
 
That looks great!

I remember you said your adventure ran slower than the OC of TW2 with the same hardware, but what kind of specs are we talking about?

For example, what do you recommend if one wants to run it in high detail as it currently is?
 
Since I don't have a team to compare or anything, I can only say something about my pc:

I could play on highest settings with a GTX 570, 4096Mb Ram and an i5 with 3,3 Ghz. I can even record with Fraps while playing (as you can see by the trailer), but of course it runs much slower than the original game. I am no expert, but I would assume it's like that because the level is much bigger. ^^

But since you can just download it with Redkit on monday, there's no problem with just trying out how it runs on your pc. Of course the final version should run much better since I haven't really started optimizing anything.
 
Benzenzimmen, I have same PC specs as you but on highest settings, the game goes 1-2 fps as soon as I walk towards the town

Well there must be something wrong on your PC, it works fine for me.
 
Hoho, awesomesauce. Much luck to you, gotta try it out when it goes gold :)

BTW, were you the guy asking for voice acting auditions some time ago?

I am still searching for most of the voices since I have a large set of individual characters. I would be very happy to find some more. The most difficult person to find would be Geralt I suppose. He has to sound just "right". :)




I made this page for people who might be interested to help me in this regard:

I just realized this takes place 20 years before the events of the first games right?
I know Triss is a sorceress and all, but Dandelion must be old as hell if he's hanging out with Geralt at this point.
 
In Blood of Elves, Sigismund Dijkstra says Dandelion is almost 40, looks 30, thinks he's 20 and acts like he's 10.

So that would make him 40-something in the games.
 
Well I guess that sorta makes sense. Did Geralt know Triss and Dandelion for 20 years though? I know it might not make sense, just curious.
 
The timeline from the Reasons of State comic has Geralt first meeting Dandelion in 1244. This is also the year he first meets Yennefer. Yennefer is already friends with Triss at this time, so it's plausible.

Really? I might have missed that and I just finished the book. />

Tomorrow I'm going to try and see what I can do.

When it comes to dialogue lines. Do you want files per character or do you want an impression of all the dialogue in one scene?

Aha! Thanks for sharing the link again. I would never have found it otherwise!

I was thinking about voicing some character. I'll have to think about it. Again :p I'm busy with life and shit and I'm not sure my voice or my skills would be adequate. Bah. I'll give it a shot later. Hopefully :)
