REDkit: How to?
Whether you are a long-time modder or just recently got into the scene, we figured that you’d appreciate an introduction and a quick tour around the REDkit website and forums.
First things first: the REDkit editor can be accessed from the “Getting Started” section – it requires a copy of PC version of The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings installed on your hard drive. The game also needs to be patched all the way up to version 3.3, so please make sure to do that before launching the editor. If you don’t yet have The Witcher 2, you can buy it here.
To upload your work, you will have to create an account. To do that, simply click on the “Register” button and follow the on-screen instructions. If you participated in the REDkit closed beta, please use the “Forgot password?” link and request the new one to be sent to the email you used to register for the closed beta. Upon completing the account-creation process you should see a new button on the main page, called Upload. This is where you will be sharing your work with the world, so make sure to become familiar with it if you are planning to upload lots of content. One more thing regarding the player account – although not connected with other forums yet, it is strongly recommended that you use the same email address you’ve used on thewitcher.com or cyberpunk.net while registering on this site.
If it’s knowledge you seek, our Wiki should have all the answers you need regarding various aspects of the editor, ranging from early setup to uploading adventures. Combined with our Forums, where you can get help from the REDkit developers, your thirst for questions should be quenched.
We are in the open beta phase, meaning that there are still some known issues that we are currently working on. Two biggest ones are:
Cooking – currently, cooking changes to original Witcher 2 story create rather sizable files. We are aware of this issue and are working on it to change cooking process so the files will be smaller.
Lipsync – right now there’s no possibility to create lipsync for written dialogues. However, we’re working on a patch that should resolve this issue pretty soon.
They will be addressed as soon as possible so please keep calm and keep modding. Don’t forget to check the Mod of the Month section as well – this one is pretty self-explanatory.
