(Usually "The Witcher 3 Wild Huntbinconfigbase"). In the [General] section, add the line: DBGConsoleOn=true Save the file and launch the game. Once in-game press the ~ (tilde) key to bring up the console. From here you can type various options for the effects listed below.

You can leave any item, but you must leave one item or this will not work. Turn the camera in a 360 degree circle or walk a short distance away from the nest, and then loot the nest again for all items to have respawned. Repeat this as many times as desired. Sell all the items you get from this exploit for lots of crowns. The game has a cap of 65,535 crowns. Thus, stay under that number to avoid losing any crowns. If you meditate for five days, the shops will get all their money (crowns) back. Alternately, go to the Loan Shark in Navigrad since his money comes back each time you leave. You can also buy florens so he has more money, and then just convert florens to crowns at the bank in Novigrad. Note: This glitch was performed on an unpatched version of the game. Unlimited Money: ---------------- This exploit allows you to earn around 1000 crowns per minute. Take the following steps: 1.Find the merchant at Hierarch Square in Novigrad and purchase all of his Shells and Sea Shells. Talk to him again after you have depleted his stock and you will find that he has more to sell. Keep buying as many as you can afford and carry. 2.Take the shells with you and visit the armorer, who is located next to the merchant. Dismantle your Shells to receive Pearls. 3.Sell the Pearls to the armorer until he runs out of money. 4.Meditate for 5 days. The armorer should have 1000 coins again. Sell him more Pearls. 5.Repeat the process as often as you like. You can dismantle a Shell at the cost of 8 coins for each effort. The Pearl you receive can then be sold for 109 coins. Naturally, this only works during the daytime hours, as merchants aren't around at night. How to make Money: ------------------ * Doing secondary quests is a good way to get cash: Witcher contracts usually have a reward tied to them. * Selling items you don't use won't make you a millionaire, but it adds up over time. * Diving and sailing is a great way to discover Smuggler's Caches, which contain treasures that can be sold, or money. * Guarded treasures come with monsters attached. They're worth the effort, though. The special items found inside can be sold for decent amounts of money. * There are multiple currencies in The Witcher 3, but merchants only accept Crowns. You'll have to trade the Orens and Florins you collect at Vivaldi's Bank in Novigrad it's the building with the coin hanging above the door. How To Import The Witcher 2 Save Games To The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt: ------------------------------------------------------------------- Many gamers are finding it difficult to make use of this process, in fact some are unaware of how exactly it is done. You can check out our guide on How To Import Your The Witcher 2 Saves To The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. * First and the foremost thing, this Import process is supported only with PC version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. At the start of The Witcher 3: Wild, you may or may not receive a message prompting you to import your saves. * If you are among one of those who did not receive the message to import saves at the start of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, it's because your SAVE GAMES are not in the proper place. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt wants your previous SAVE GAMES to reside in : "Users[username]My DocumentsWitcher 2gamesaves". * Sadly, if you ever enabled Steam Cloud Save, they will reside in: "Program Files(x86)Steamuserdata[userid]20920remote" * So all you need to do is move them at the expected directory and start your adventure. Money Cheat: ------------ Heres an easy way to get a lot of money very fast in The Witcher 3. Using this infinite money cheat youll be able to get unlimited cash, as explained below. 1.When youre in the town of Midcopse, before you cross the Woesong Bridge out of town, jump over the livestock fence into the grass pasture with the cows. 2.Kill all the cows in the pasture. You can kill them with one swing from your sword, but using fire magic is usually a lot faster, since cows do tend to run away from imminent death. 3.After killing all the cows, you must meditate for at least 2 hours at the spot where you killed them. This can be done from the pause menu, by going to the Meditation section and setting the clock to over 2 hours ahead from the current in-game time. Meditating for this long will respawn the cows by the time youre done meditating, at which point you can kill them again! 4.After doing this a few times, you can sell the cow hides for quick cash! (And you get to keep the rest of the cow meat for healings.) Theres actually a Merchant to sell the cow hides to right by the road next to the cow pasture youre standing in. Talk to the merchant and when youre in the merchant/shopkeepers Shop inventory, go to the Other tab to find the Cow Hide, so you can sell all of yours to the merchant for Crowns coin. 5.Repeat steps 1 to 4 until you have enough money. Or until you realize youre creating a massive cow graveyard and it starts to creep you out. How To Disable "Gamepad/Keyboard Detected" Message: --------------------------------------------------- Go to your Witcher 3: Wild Hunt folder, then to "...The Witcher 3binconfigbase". Now open the "hidden.ini" file using Notepad. You will see two lines: edit "LockControlScheme=0" to "LockControlScheme=2" and those keyboard/gamepad notifications will disappear once you get back in the game. Familiar Tattoo: ---------------- If you import your save from The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, you may find that Geralt has a tattoo. In The Witcher 2, he receives that tattoo during the course of completing the "Hung Over" mission. When he wakes up the next morning with a tattoo, the player can either remove it or leave it where it was. If you import a save file after leaving the tattoo in place, look for the tattoo as Geralt is soaking in his bath near the start of The Witcher 3: High Hunt. Beginner Tips: -------------- As you begin your adventure, you can keep a few things in mind to make sure that things go smoothly. * Complete the tutorials. They will acquaint you with the game's combat system, which has changed since the previous game. There's no better time to adapt to the differences. * Venture off the beaten path and explore. If you stick to the roads, you're likely to miss out on opportunities to strengthen your character, which will mean the required quests are more difficult and perhaps frustrating than they should be. * Side quests are worth doing. You can gain loot and easy experience points, especially when completing the basic quests available in White Orchard. * Make sure that you equip and make use of powerful signs in combat, which can keep you from taking damage you might otherwise. * Learn new potions at every opportunity and refill them often. You can do so by meditating, provided you have Alcohol or Dwarven Spirit items in your inventory. Potions will make your journey much simpler. Easy money: ----------- Before crossing the Woesong Bridge to leave the town of Midcopse, jump over the fence to enter a grass pasture with some cows. Kill all the cows at that location. It is recommended you use fire magic instead of your sword so you do not have to chase them. Then, meditate for two hours where you killed them by pausing the game, selecting "Meditation", and advancing the time by two hours. This will force the cows to respawn. Kill the cows again, and repeat the process to accumulate a large number of cow hides, as well as meat for healing. Once satisfied, find the merchant near the road next to the cow pasture. Talk to the merchant, then select the "Other" tab from his shop's inventory to find the "Cow Hide" option to sell all of your hides to him. Repeat this process as many times as desired. Easy "Fist Of The South Star" achievement: ------------------------------------------ You can find a fistfight at the "Inn At The Crossroads" fast travel point on the "Velen" map. Go into the inn to find some men fighting in the corner, and talk to them to participate. When the fight starts, you must immediately hold [Block]. After blocking your opponent's strikes, use strong attacks to break his defense and knock him out. Easy "Kingmaker" achievement: ----------------------------- To complete the subplot about choosing Skellige's ruler, you must first complete "The King Is Dead - Long Live The King!" main story quest, which is the first main quest on The Skellige Isles. You will then automatically get two new side quests called "Possession" and "The Lord Of Undvik". You can mark them in the side quests tab in your inventory. The subplot about Skellige's ruler consists of the following four side quests: "Possession", "The Lord Of Undvik", "King's Gambit", and "Coronation". As soon as the "Possession" and "The Lord Of Undvik" side quests have been completed, you will automatically get the "King's Gambit" side quest. In this quest, you have to choose whether to go with Cerys or Hjalmar during a dialogue. This will decide who becomes the ruler, and is extremely important for the "Full Crew" achievement. If you do not help either of them, you will miss the "Full Crew" achievement. Thus, be sure to help either Cerys or Hjalmar; it does not matter which one you help. Easy Crowns: ------------ * Before crossing the Woesong Bridge to leave the town of Midcopse, jump over the fence to enter a grass pasture with some cows. Kill all the cows at that location. Consider using fire magic instead of your sword to not have to chase them. Then, meditate for over two hours where you killed them by pausing game play, selecting "Meditation", and advancing the time by two hours. This will force the cows to respawn. Kill the cows again and repeat the process to accumulate a large amount of cow hides, as well as meat for healing. When satisfied, find the merchant near the road next to the cow pasture. Talk to the merchant, then select the "Other" tab from his shop's inventory to find the "Cow Hide" option to sell all of your hides to him. Repeat the process as many times as desired . * Use the following trick to earn about 1,000 Crowns per minute. Purchase all the Shells and Sea Shells from the merchant at Hierarch Square in Novigrad. Talk to him afterwards and repeat the process until you have as many Shells and Sea Shells you can afford or carry. Visit the armorer found next to the merchant. Dismantle the Shells to get Pearls. Sell the Pearls to the armorer until he runs out of money. Meditate for five days to allow the armorer time to get more Crowns. Sell him more Pearls and repeat the process. Note: This can only be done during the day, when merchants are present. It costs 8 Crowns to dismantle a Shell, which results in a Pearl that can be sold for 109 Crowns. Easy Money I: ------------ You can use this method early on in the game in the town of Midcopse (in the White Orchard area). You'll get there for the Hunting a Witch main quest. 1.Jump over the livestock fence into the grass pasture with the cows before you cross the Woesong Bridge. 2.Kill all the cows in the pasture. 3.Pick up the cow hide & meat from their corpses. Meditate at least two hours, so cows will respawn and you will be able to kill them again. 4.Sell the cow hides to the nearest merchant for quick cash. Easy Money II: ------------- For this method you have to go a little further in the game, precisely at the Heirarch Center in Novigrad. You will have to visit Velen first, and then fast travel or take a boat to Novigrad. 1.At the Heirarch Center Square you will find a merchant in front of some fish who will sell unlimited Shells and Sea Shells for 7 Crowns. Exit and enter again the merchant's shop, as all his goods will be restored. If not, meditate or fast travel and enter the shop one more time. 2.Take the Shells to the Armorer next to the merchant. Dismantle the Shells into Pearls, and you will be able to sell them for 109 Crowns each. 3.Sell the Pearls to the Armorer until he has sufficient money. Once he runs out of Crowns, meditate for five days, so the Armorer will get 1,000 Crowns to spend in about 1 minute. If you want to sell Pearls and Black Pearls at a rate of around 2,700 Crowns per minute, go to the loan shark shop, a building with red carpets outside at the southern gate, after noon.

Easy money: ----------- Before crossing the Woesong Bridge to leave the town of Midcopse in White Orchard early in the game, jump over the fence to enter a grass pasture with some cows. Kill all the cows at that location with your sword or fire magic. Then, meditate for two hours where you killed them by pausing the game, selecting "Meditation", and advancing the time by two hours. This will force two cows to respawn. Kill the cows again, and repeat the process to accumulate a large number of cow hides, as well as meat for healing. Once satisfied, go to the merchant directly across the road from the cow pasture. Talk to him, then select the "Other" tab from his shop's inventory to find the "Cow Hide" option to sell all of your hides to him. Repeat this process as many times as desired. Note: Since the nearby merchant only has a limited number of crowns, you will need to sell the cow hides to other shop keepers to get more crowns. Easy XP: -------- Go to the location "Velen - No Man's Land", which is southwest of Novigrad. Go under the water (near the wrecked ships), and start shooting at the three Level 10 Drowners with your crossbow to one-hit kill them. After killing the three Drowners, simply turn the camera in a 360 degree circle, and they should keep respawning. They are guarding a nearby chest -- so do not open the chest or the Drowners will stop respawning. If you keep shooting your crossbow towards the Drowners, the game will simply auto-aim at them so you can easily kill them without much effort. You will also need to come up for air when you run out of breath. The Level 10 Drowners are worth 7 XP each. If you are Level 9, you can reach Level 11 in approximately 30 minutes using this farming method. Note: If the Drowners do not respawn, move around a little or turn the camera in the opposite direction to get them to respawn. Infinite food: -------------- Go to the location at the Clan Tordarroch Forge in The Skellige Isles, and kill all the goats. Next, meditate for one hour for the goats to respawn.

Then, loot all the goat corpses to get lots of goat milk, meat, and goat hide. Note: Goat hides are heavy.
