Just found a great mod - Sensible Map Borders. It turns off forced redirection mechanic when you reach invisible map border. That improves exploration quite a bit.

For some treasure hunts, I decided to travel normally, instead of using fast travel. So taking a boat from Novigrad to some far away southern Velen area could be fun, as long as it's reachable by sea. But one annoying part wasn't letting me through due to the invisible wall (not really sensible in that area):



With that mod, you can sail through just fine. Geralt keeps his remarks about "edge of the world" and etc. Which are useful, since in some cases you indeed can fall of the map.

How stable is that mod? No bugs? Have you tried AutoLoot Configurable All-in-One?

I didn't encounter any problems with this mod - it's fairly small, just one script file. But I didn't use it long. Haven's seen that autoloot one. I try to keep mods to the minimum.

Looting is half the fun! :D

(Just wish merchants had more money - there are probably mods for that, but for now I'll just stick stuff in the stash - must be 50 swords in there by now)

Quoting: Pangaea(Just wish merchants had more money - there are probably mods for that, but for now I'll just stick stuff in the stash - must be 50 swords in there by now)

I try to collect unique swords, but usually sell generic ones. One huge money drain is buying all those mandrake and cherry cordials to make White Gull. Money gets tight, but I found, that nekker claws, ghoul blood and drowner brains sell quite well. So hunting them actually pays, especially since they respawn in some areas in big numbers.

I do the same. Tousain merchants have more wealth, so if it's urgent to have better shops I'd persue that region.

For mods I try to keep it minimal too, but some I simply must have. I don't like to cheat so I restricted autoloots radius. And looting is part of the fun indeed. That's something the mod compliments. Now I can go towards barrels and other containers and see if there is loot in them, I find that nicer than sensing to highlight the loot with yellow outline.

The AutoLoot dev said he hoping to make it more balanced, as he didn't like the unfair aspects of it, but unfortunately he's mia.

Btw, the sensible map borders mod has one issue - if you save somewhere off the map, loading back can teleport you to some weird location. So better don't save outside the regular map areas.

I found a way to fix it. You need to basically disable (comment out) everything in these functions in r4Player.ws (should be added to that mod and merged if necessary):

Just another night in Velen

Found some giant dinosaur (or dragon?) fossils on a big misty island:
