In 2017, we shared a mod that allowed you to play The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt in first-person mode. And yesterday, modder ‘ExtremeDotneting’ released a reworked version of this mod that aims to address some issues and glitches.
This First Person Camera Reworked Mod attempts to resolve some of the issues that were found in First Person Improved and modFirstPerson. Do note that it’s still not perfect. However, it appears that the game is now playable via a first-person perspective. Or at least it’s in a better shape than before.
As the modder noted, this reworked version makes control more convenient and fixes some problems. For instance, it does not display swords or crossbows (an issue that affected the previous FPS mods).
In order to showcase this mod in action, ExtremeDotneting shared the following video. Thus, we suggest watching it before downloading the mod.
Speaking of The Witcher 3, we also suggest the following mods. Needless to say that, The Witcher 3 HD Reworked Project is a must-have mod for CDPR’s RPG. HDAR – HD Animals Reworked Mod, Humans of the Continent 4K-2K Textures and the Witcher 2 Overhaul Mod are also some cool mods. And then there are Shades of Iron, True Fires Mod, and a mod that adds a new standalone quest. My guess is that these mods are compatible with this FPS mod.
Have fun!

I hope Geralt never asks a person how many fingers he got.

An interesting curiosity but third-person is a far superior way to play in my opinion.
Absolutely, first person view is one of the reasons i simply could not enjoy cyberpunk either, some games are just better in 3rd person view
No, better is subjective and dependent in part of the players playstyle. I Only play first person games. I played the Witcher exclusively in first person with a mod and am playing The Witcher 3 with the Gervant First Person mod which is the best for a first person experience that eliminates a lot of problems other mods had including the mod above. I haven’t found a good first person mod for The Witcher 2 yet or I’d have played it in first person too.
Made me want to play some more kingdom come deliverance. Now that’s a good first person rpg
Both are great games but this “mod” is s***
This would be useful in tight indoor spaces, some caves, underwater and wherever geralts movement needs more precision such as scaffolding etc Didn’t get any info on whether it’s easily swapped in and out of on the fly in game though, may give this a try.
Reminds me of Kingdom Come, so not bad. But it will need to display the weapons and hands to be proper.
Would be cool if it switched to 3rd-person view automatically when you unsheathe your sword, then goes back to first-person view when you sheathe it back! What do you guys think?
I think there could be a trigger for that just to show the cutscene of pulling the sword. With the Gervant First Person mod which i find best you can assign a key to flip between the two views.
this dude needs new graphic card i guess.
It’s Oct 3rd and The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt – Game of the Year edition is on sale at GOG for 80 percent off. You pay Only 9.99 for the game instead of 49.99. Get it Now before the sale ends.
The Mod above is not meant to be a First Person View that mimics the playstyle of games that are designed to be played in first person. As the Reworked mod does improve somewhat on the two other mods he mentions it’s not designed to play the game as if your character is mean to be in first person mode. Note, Gervant First Person mod was Not one of the two he mentions as needing work, those are unpolished attempts at a first person mod. The mod developer even mentions on his site and mod documentation, “Differences between FPCR (this mod) and Gervant First Person Gervant First Person is a mod written by another developer around the same time as this mod. In contrast to the FPCR, the GFP mod is more elaborated for first-person gameplay, due to which some animations have been simplified. Use FPCR if you want control responsiveness closer to the vanilla version or GFP for a more complete first person experience.” – – As someone who have tried both, the best is the Gervant First Person mod found on NexusMods.
