New Game Plus Combat

A combination of free combat and new game enhancements:

On the one hand you can start a new game using New Game + Save.

It is also possible to start a New Game+ using a New Game+ save (i.e. stacking New Game+). Thanks Enpror for the confirmation :)

(The console command ngpcstandardinit may not be suitable for this purpose, but ngpcustominit and ngpcustominitreetdiagrams should be.)

Additionally, it can:

-Increase the player level limit

• Scale enemies/Craft schematics/Quests (recommended levels)/New equipment

-Disable device level requirement

-Leveling device with player

• Added a damage limiter
• Added a damage handling limiter

-Increase merchant funds.

On the other hand, it increases combat effectiveness:

-Combat stance in normal games does not allow running, only sprinting, which requires endurance. Mod adds combat stance with running enabled and normal stance (all of which are optional mid-combat). This setup is called enemy strafing, and its options include:

• On, running disorder - normal game behavior, Geralt's fighting stance and inability to run;
• Open, Run Enabled - Geralt Battle Stance and ready to run;

three. Non-Geralt fights in his normal stance (i.e. outside of combat) and can run away.

-Supports jumping (can be switched during battle).

-Enable looting (can be toggled mid-battle, albeit with a delay).

• Allows setting enemy levels to be a desired amount below/equal to/above the player level (can also be randomized).
• Added a combat animation speed multiplier (range: from normal to twice the speed).
• Added a chance-controlled multiplier for damage dealt to enemies that are too weak/strong, independent of game difficulty (adjustable mid-fight, range: from half to double damage).

-Added a chance-controlled damage multiplier for weak/strong enemies, independent of game difficulty (adjustable mid-fight, range: from half to double damage).

-Allows setting the chance of weapon degradation (100% without mods, 0% weapon will not degrade).

-Allows setting chance of armor degradation (100% without mods, 0% armor will not degrade).

-Can speed up, slow down or pause the game.

-Just for fun: Feel free to taunt your enemies.

How to install?

• Extract the archive file to the switcher 3 main folder.
• Add the following keybindings to the [combat] section of c:\users\[user]\documents\the switcher 3\input.settings:

IK_8=(Action=ToggleEnemyStrafing) - cycles through all three Enemy strafing options

IK_D=(Action=ToggleEnemyStrafingCombat) - only toggles between Enemy strafing with and without running (the combat stances)

IK_Q=(Action=ToggleJumping)

IK_W=(Action=ToggleLooting)

IK_Space=(Action=CbtJump)

IK_A=(Action=CbtTaunt)

IK_9=(Action=Speedup)

IK_0=(Action=Slowdown)

IK_P=(Action=Pause)

IK_NumPad4=(Action=DecDamageTakenMultiplier)

IK_NumPad5=(Action=IncDamageTakenMultiplier)

IK_NumPad7=(Action=DecDamageDealtMultiplier)

IK_NumPad8=(Action=IncDamageDealtMultiplier)

If you wish, replace them with other keys. You don't have to add them all, just the ones you plan to use.

Also added them under [Combat Replacers] for ciri:.

If using NMM, you still need to manually copy modnewgamepluscombat.xml to [witcher 3 home folder]\bin\config\r4game\user\u config_matrix\pc.
