Is anyone else missing a patch? I downloaded The Witcher 3 Complete Edition 4.0 back when it first became available and have been downloading each patch as they were released, but when I was checking to make sure I had them all archived I realized one was missing and doesn't seem to be listed on the website or in GoG Galaxy. I wanted to make sure it wasn't just mislabeled and the patches would still cover it, but no after fully installing from 4.0 then installing patches up to "4.00 Hotfix2 (61126) to 4.01 (62099)" I tried running the next available patch "4.01 Hotfix (62317) to 4.02 (62976)" and it said my patch was for a different version of the game
I would REALLY like to not download the entire 80 GB installer just to ensure my archived version is up to date
UPDATE: So I was digging around through my archived files and on a whim I checked the folder for the old edition of Witcher 3 before Complete was released, and lo and behold there was a patch in that folder FOR the Complete Edition of the "4.01 to 4.01 Hotfix" patch. I'm not sure how this happened, as the download is not listed on the download page for either version of the game. Maybe it was mistakenly added to the directory for the old version, and when someone noticed the mistake it was just removed rather than being moved back to complete edition. I tested installing complete edition from 4.0 again and the patch worked, got the game fully up to 4.03.
If anyone else is missing the patch too I could upload it. It's only 9MB.
HOWEVER, it now seems that the 4.01 to 4.01 Hotfix patch for the original Witcher 3 is ALSO missing. I never had a 4.0 version of the non complete edition backed up, so I guess I'll just have to download a copy of 4.03, ah well. Still kind of weird that this ONE really small patch is missing.
