witcher 2 is the worst game to own on steam due to the crazy large file thing.

i guess witcher 2 is the one game that you set to 'DO NOT AUTO UPDATE" on steam..
in fact, i should probably do that with witcher 1 before something equally random and stupid happens :/

i prefer setting all games to don't auto update. that way I only get the update after i start up the game.
imagine this happening to someone with limited bandthwith. 16gb is over the monthly limit in some countries lol.

*raises hand*
you're talkin about me there. 80 gb monthly cap. thats almost a fucking quarter gone on a shitty little update ffs.
but witcher 2 always has had a shitty update system. even its own one on gog was a mess whenever i tried to use it. always had a problem refusing to patch upgrades, and i always had to jump through so many hoops to get the thing updated to the latest version  never once had a smooth experience with it. such a pity cdpr did such a poor job on that side, given what a fun game it is.
i hope next time they hire someone who actually knows what theyre doing on that side of things

Looks like it might have been a bug, some people got a 500KB patch, others got a 200MB one and others still ended up with 16GB.

Where'd the 5GB figure come from? If that's true, they must be including assets from the base game to use.
I'll be interested to see how many intermediate tools the community has to make to be able to use actual custom content. It seems almost certain that there will be no model import/export tools included given that devs almost always use 3rd party middleware for their models that they can't distribute. Hopefully they'll at least help out with info on file formats and such.

Yeah i hope model import / export tools will be available, it makes all the difference for the modding community. Downloading it now, it's split into 5 files. And yes it must be assets.

RedKit isnt out until next year, it was confirmed the other day by one of the devs (i believe he is) on the RedKit Beta forum. It's pretty nice, they're building up a wiki, video tutorials etc. Hopefully we'll see import/export for assets too, seems likely.

Does this game have a benchmark tool? Maybe some mod which does the job?

Never had problem with witchers myself
~5GB(!) Gonna be interesting to try, I hope this game gets a really big modding community 
And shame on me for not finishing this game yet, gah, too many games to mod, too many games to play..
nice!
