[Witcher 3] Extensive texture glitch/error seemingly unique to me

Hi all,

I got Witcher 3 for Christmas, the GOG 4-disc variant. Installed smoothly and runs like a dream even on the higher graphical settings.

However, sometimes when I load the world, reload the world (after death), or even just randomly whilst I'm in the world, half the game's textures (or perhaps its lighting) goes haywire and starts vomiting pink and green neon patterns everywhere and plants turn pink and green.

Sometimes I can load the game up and it runs (and looks normal), but certain things seem to trigger the error to reappear.

My working theory is that the glitch is related to the day-night cycle and the lighting of floor and vegetation in certain lights is missing certain periods (perhaps a "dawn light" variant or shadow), which would explain why it appears only at certain times. But this is just a guess based on my half-hour of play thus far.

I tried to take a picture but like many games Witcher 3 does not co-operate with PrtScn
