    For FP combat you may want to install at least Combat, Strafe and No Spins
    To rotate player with camera in FP install Strafe
    For horse riding on keyboard it is recommended to use a mod to disable turning horse with mouse. BHC or other.
  • Merge scripts with Script Merger
  • Never press Reset to Default in Key Bindings menu

GFP Modules
Spoiler:  
Show

GFP Modules should be installed with TW3MM and then merged with Script Merger

For FP combat install at least Combat, Strafe and No Spins

GFP Combat
Manual targeting in FP
Hold 'Modify Attack Distance' to attack far
Unblocks aiming on boat in FP
Optional:
  • Manual aiming for quick shoot/throw
  • Parry only in front
  • Axii only in front
  • Normal stance in combat: can run and toggle walk/run in combat
NOTE: You may need to unbind 'Toggle Walk/Run' (click middle mouse button), then set key again


GFP Strafe
Strafing and player rotation with camera in first person
Hold 'Look Around' to temporarily disable rotation with camera


GFP No Spins
Disables most spin attack animations in first person
Less clipping, less covering the view


GFP Real Shadows
Modifies ALL item entities to allow main module to skip fake shadows and use real ones instead
Pros: no glitchy item dissolve effect, no glitchy cloth shadow, working shadows of swords and scabbards
Lots of potential conflicts
HairWorks components on Geralt's head are disabled
Non-vanilla items/hair are not supported
Module made with a script, so no accidental human errors

Spoiler:

Limitations
Spoiler:  
Show

  • FP head shadow does not work with Ray Tracing Shadows enabled
  • In rare cases it is very hard to interact with some objects in FP. When interacting with such objects try to look higher or temporarily switch to TP.
    Spoiler:  
    Show

    Known objects:
    • power cells in Philippa's hideout
    • A Dangerous Game quest: Zed's door, triangular key in Caesar Bilzen's house
    • The Phantom of Eldberg quest: letter in lighthouse
    • warehouse door in Reason of State quest
    • completion token (underwater) in The Path of Warriors quest
    • Tomira in epilogue
    • Dettlaff's hideout door
    • barrel of Sangreal
    • Marlene's barrel
    • windows in Paperchase quest

  • FP Ciri is lower quality
  • Vanilla limitation: high FOV in rare cases will cause object streaming issues. Golden Sturgeon is the biggest issue.
