Although, in the event you’ve ever thought Geralt might do with a vessel that might safely retailer all of the drowner heads he retains in his saddle baggage, a brand new mod will let you’ve a go at crusing a full-size ship.
Yep, that is one other a type of pet tasks that the sport’s REDkit modding instruments have made potential, and much from the primary maritime-based one, with one other mod having restored the sport’s reduce boat races again in July.
TrickArrant’s ‘Sail Massive Ship’ not solely boasts among the best ‘does what it says on the tin’ names on Nexus Mods, it lets Gerry from the Rivia climb aboard pilotable variations of these large frigates that sit within the harbours of locations like Novigrad as static objects within the base recreation. You will simply should park your immersion on the door a bit, since, in its personal creator’s phrases, it boasts “fairly a little bit of jank”.
Severely, although, there’s a complete part of the outline entitled “Abstract of the Jank”, and it is longer than the directions to be used. The latter mainly tells you to move to both Novigrad or Kaer Trolde harbours, as a result of there are particular pilotable large ships sitting in them now. You will have to hop onto the principle deck, then head as much as the wheel and growth, as you may see demonstrated within the video under, you may sail the large ship by having Geralt sit on the air in entrance of it, as a result of this mod mainly appears to be like to layer its large ships over the default rowboat.

As such, there are many quirks to be careful for, not least that you could swim by way of the perimeters of the boat, as a result of solely the deck has colision. That is truly the way you get again on board in the event you fall within the water by the best way, swim by way of the perimeters of the large boat till you discover the little rowboat inside, then climb aboard that to be teleported again onto the frigate’s deck. Simply consider it as being like a portal, though Geralt hates them. Due to this similar quirk, you may additionally discover the large boat clips by way of stuff and has enemies fly inside in after they assault.
“The boat mechanics fought me much more than I believed they’d when making an attempt to make this, so I lastly received it to some extent the place it’s usable, however it’s definitely removed from perfected,” TrickArrant wrote, “However actually, I think about this a enjoyable little throwaway mod that you simply set up, fiddle with for 10-20 minutes, after which in all probability eliminate.”
