The Native Debug Console For 1.32 Patch is a free debug console mod that will enable both mods and the debug console in The Witcher 3. It’s available on Nexus Mods from creator RFuzzo and is for players who experienced issues with mods and the loss of the debug console with the 1.32 update.

This patch has no known dependencies to work correctly, but only enables the debug console, not the free cam. Users looking for alternative files that will allow the debug console on their modded Witcher game can try Free Cam and Debug Console For 1.32 Patch or Debug Console Enable 1.32. Other useful mods include Script Merger Mod and The Witcher 3 Mod Manager.

Why Do I Need It?

A new update was released for the Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, introducing language support for simplified Chinese. However, this update also affected mods, and players reported getting stuck in several places. This patch will reverse the latest update, reverting the game to version 1.31. The only loss here is the support for the simplified Chinese language; if that is a feature you require, check out alternative options to find a better fit.

Is This Considered Cheating?

While many modders may use the debug console for cheating purposes, like infinite life or gold, this console is still helpful for saving players from losing valuable time and items from situations outside of their control. If your game continuously crashes when loading a scene or entering a point of interest, the debug console can help fix that situation. Having the debug console patch downloaded will still allow you to gain achievements. 

Installation Is Easy

Downloading this patch mod is an easy process for players. You can just download it from Nexus Mods and extract the contents into your base game directory for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. If you are prompted to overwrite general.ini, select yes. If you have older and outdated versions of the debug console, delete them before installing it; make sure you delete your plugins folder and the dsound.dll file from The Witcher’s main folder.

New Patch Now Includes Debug Console

With every new update to the Witcher, new issues or bugs hinder players from progressing in their story. The debug console is an essential tool for those who don’t wish for unavoidable situations to hold them back. This patch makes sure players have access to that console even after game-changing updates.
