The Witcher 3 Script Compilation Errors: What Are They?
Script compilation errors occur as a result of using mods. These errors can prevent you from enjoying the game, which I’m sure is what all returning players would like to be able to do.
The more Witcher 3 mods you have installed, the more likely it is for errors to occur. And the errors will usually happen because one or more of your mods have not been optimised for the current version of the game. With a brand new update out for The Witcher 3, it’s even likelier that this could be the case.
The Witcher 3 Script Compilation Errors: How Do You Fix It?
The best way to solve this issue is actually another mod. Search NexusMods for the Unification Patch. This mod aims to solve any compilation errors with mods and ensures that everything runs smoothly.
This may not be entirely reliable at the moment due to the latest update. It’s possible that the mod creators may need time to update the Unification Patch if errors continue to show up, but this mod has been a standard solution for some time.
Another solution is simply uninstalling your current mods. Once you’ve done that you could try reinstalling them or simply play the game without them. The new update actually incorporates some features from popular mods, so you may not need all of them anyway.
As the update just came out, mods may be unreliable for a period as the creators iron out any problems, so just bear that in mind if you’re planning a huge modded playthrough.
