Fixes and some slight visual boosts.

It's not perfect, but 'The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt' is well worth players' time (review here). As big as the game is, the trouble (both real and imagined) over the fidelity of the PC version has been a hot topic. As such, the new 1.04 Patch includes some important fixes like alt +tab stability, but also a mess of visual tweaks.
