The
Download: Medical
Problems 2
Summary:
A messenger reaches Geralt with urgent news from Lambert:
Vesemir and Eskel are gravely ill. Sick? But
witchers don't GET sick. Ah, but this illness is a created
thing. The stolen witchers' secrets have been used to create
an illness especially designed to overcome a witcher's prodigious
immunity to disease.
Someone must find out who has done such a thing and get that person to
reverse the illness. That "someone" is, of course, Geralt. :-)
Description:
A mage has
used the stolen witchers' secrets to create a disease that's
specifically targeted to witchers, one that will overcome that famous
witcher's immunity. Who has done such a thing? And why? And most
importantly, how can Geralt stop them? Play "Medical Problems 2: The
Witcher Disease" and find out.
If you played "Medical Problems 1: The Village Mystery," "Medical
Problems 2" is the
continuation -- and conclusion -- of that story. But if you didn't play
"Medical Problems 1," it's okay; you can still play "Medical Problems
2."
The new adventure opens with a recap of the story so far, so you can
dive right in. Of course, if you want to play the first "Medical
Problems" before you play MP2, don't let me stop you! (If you want it,
you can get it
here.)
But you don't
have to.
This new
adventure for The Witcher has
several different possible endings, depending on which
choices you make while playing. Five choices each have
consequences, and which ending you get depends on the combination of
choices. (You can read about the choices and consequences here.)
Geralt has monsters to kill, human lives to save, a mystery to solve,
and witcher contracts to fulfill. There are also some ladies
to
woo, though all but one of those encounters is optional. :-)
Estimated playing time: 4 - 6 hours.
A
couple of
notes:
1. At a few points during the adventure, Geralt will start to
walk somewhere by himself. Please
let him do so!
This is usually a part of the story.
2. Triss tells you not to move while she's teleporting you or
while you're using the teleportation scroll that she gives you.
Listen to her! Don't move
after you've started
teleporting
until you get where you're going and the teleportation special effect
turns off. You
don't want Geralt to arrive missing an arm,
do
you? :-)
3. The Witchers' Laboratory and the Old Ruins are both HUGE
areas
in Djinni, even though only a small part of those areas is actually
used in the game. Powerful computers have no trouble with
those
areas, but older computers sometimes have difficulty, and if the game
is going to crash, it will
probably
be during the loading of one of these two areas. Please, SAVE
YOUR GAME before you go into either of those areas. If either
of
them gives you trouble, turn off all non-essential background tasks on
your computer. The crypt area (which is what both of those
areas
use) is a big strain on computer resources; I don't know what CDPR was
thinking when they made it.
Download Details:
Once
it has downloaded, you should have a file called med_prob2_ver1_4.exe,
and if you
look
at it in Windows Explorer, it should say that it has a filesize
of 404,243 KB.
This file is a self-extracting 7zip archive. That means that
if
you double-click on the file after you've downloaded it, it will unpack
itself; you don't have to have
7zip on your computer to be able to unzip it. It's not an
installer, though; you'll
still need to put the adventure file
where it
goes. (If you need help installing adventure files, see the Installation
Instructions.)
Once you have extracted the file, you should have a file called med_prob2.adv,
and if
you look at it in
Windows Explorer, it should say that it has a filesize of 794,945 KB.
Also included are four text files: mp2_installation.txt,
mp2_hints.txt,
mp2_walkthrough.rtf,
and mp2_choices_and_consequences.rtf.

"Medical Problems 2" comes with four helpful text files (which are
also
available
on this site):
1.
Installation
instructions
2.
Hint
sheet
3.
Walkthrough
4.
Choices
and their consequences
Walkthroughs take half of the fun out of a game, so it's only there in
case of a playing "emergency." :D If you get stuck or have a
question that isn't covered in the installation manual or the hint
sheet, ask it in the Medical Problems 2 thread on the Witcher forum,
and I'll answer you. (Don't try to send mail to corylea.com;

And don't forget the
Pictures!
Version
Details:
This is Version 1.4, which
made the subtitles for the Adda
movies part of the movie itself, rather than having the subtitles added
by the cutscene editor, since the cutscene editor was flaky and didn't
always put them in the right place. It was released on
November
12, 2011.
Version 1.3, which changed a
line of conversation in the
"Geralt starts in a cell" path to better reflect what Geralt should
learn from that conversation.
Version 1.2: Removed a few test items that were
inadvertently left in version 1.1
Version 1.1: Improved one of the cutscenes, inadventently
left in
some items that are used for testing the adventure
Version 1.0: Initial release, on May 14, 2011
