Great news! The first patch for The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings is available right now in the "additional content" area of your download in "My Account" This patch fixes a number of issues. From the patch notes:

1. Fixed the free Troll Trouble DLC download. It is now included in the patch so there's no need to download and install it separately.

2. Fixed an issue that prevented some users from downloading other free DLCs (the ones given out with some pre-orders, special promotions, etc). The launcher now properly refreshes the list of available DLCs and allows for installation.

3. Performance improvements: approximately 5% to 30% better framerate and faster game loading for many users, depending on their individual systems and game versions. Owners of retail versions can expect the biggest improvements.

4. Fixed random crashes occurring on some systems, especially after saving and loading saves.

5. Key mapping – allows the arrow keys to be used for movement.

6. Added the option to invert the mouse.

7. nVidia surround vision now works properly.

8. More accurate assessment provided by the "auto-detect settings" option will help improve game performance.

9. Removed a bug that prevented completion of the “Blood Curse” quest.

10. GOG.com credits now work properly.

The last bugfix, of course, was the most important one, since you can now see who worked so hard at GOG.com to bring you the best digital version of the game anywhere on the 'Net!

As always, you can head over the The Witcher's website or let us know in our forums if you're experiencing problems.

Note: This patch only works on the gog.com version of the game.
So here's a problem: It's not showing up in my download list. Also, I completed the Troll quest with no problems. (What was the issue with that?)

But back on topic, I was hoping to download it directly from the site, and you tell us to check out the official site if we're having problems.

I go there, and it says, in bold underlined text:
1. If you have already installed and activated your version of The Witcher 2, you must b]download and install Patch 1.1 manually.

Ookay, so i head further down the list for my North American... no... downloadable yea--noo.... GOG version is special. let's see, it says:

For the GOG.com version of The Witcher 2, please use the patch available at the GOG.com website.


...wonderful. Back again, here I am.

Could you guys just put up a manual link please? Thank you.

TheEnigmaticT: Are you commenting on the fact that I mistyped the number, or that you haven't come across the fabulous French monk in game?
On the fact the faboo Monk actually appears!

Cook: Looks like AlexY haven't seen the great return of the French Monk.
Nope, must have missed it somehow. Maybe I forgot. In any case, it's like all my vivid wet dreams are coming true! With dice even! :D

It's in the "additional content" section.

When I want to install the patch on my GOG copy of the Witcher I get an critical error:
Installed game version is invalid or incomplete
OS: Winwows 7 x64

Are there any tips?
For some reason, Xbox 360 analog control in menus (including the in-game radial menu) no longer works post-patch.
"5. Key mapping – allows the arrow and number keys to be used for movement. "

Thank GOG for that! 'bout time!

OH! I thought that meant the part of the launcher where you could get downloadable content. Ok, I'm a tard. Thanks!
I guess this won't be a popular sentiment here, but what was the point of buying the game on GOG and forfeiting all the neat physical extras from the retail version of the game if they're just going to remove the GOG version's only real advantage a week after it comes out? I feel like I have been tricked by GOG and CD Projekt.

CDPR seem to have just remembered this too. :P
So I'm not expecting this right away, but at what point does GOG update the main install .exe to the patched version? I haven't even downloaded it yet, waiting for a patch or two to get rolled into the regular download.

Are you sure people exist?
Yes! Standalone Patch!, Huzzah!

GOG, I'd marry you if I could.
