    I have a quick question. I downloaded The Witcher Enhanced Edition on Steam earlier this week and it says it comes with two music CDs and a making of video. I have yet to find these on my laptop. Any ideas where I can find these bonus features? Does it download with the package in steam or should I go get it off of the witcher website?

    thanks for the help!

    Good question. I'd also like to know this except that I'll probably use Stardock Impulse instead of Steam.

    Maybe the Steam and Impulse versions are game only and don't include the extras?

    No because in the Steam store it listed that it came with all these extras. The enhanced edition updates are available for download off the official website (which includes music and making of video) on September 19th... So i am guessing Steam will maybe update the game tomorrow or I'll just download the music and "making of" video there. Either that

    I found it in my Steam folder.

    ...\Steam\steamapps\common\the witcher enhanced edition

    inside you will find the soundtracks, making of movies, and the manual.

    You're right; so does Impulse. Though Impulse explicitly states that those extras will be released later in a patch.

    Hopefully the extra downloads will be identical to what you get in the box and not low-bitrate MP3s or somesuch.

    Cool. What format are the movies and soundtrack in? Are they ISO files that you have to burn?

    I looked on the Witcher's official site last night and there is no Enhanced download for existing game owners. Only the 1.3 patch is listed. Anyone know what gives?

    [edit] Never mind. I saw a similar query and response in the 'other' Witcher thread. I hate multiple threads on the same topic. Yeesh!
