Cyber-enhanced support for Cyberpunk 2077 mods in Vortex!

The new source code can be found on Github (and in addition to the same release versions available here on Nexus, any pre(em)-release versions can be found on the Releases page). Find us on the CP2077 Modding Community Discord!



Changelog

Latest version: v0.9"Rogue"

Bugfixes and minor updates to v0.9 (scroll down for v0.9 features):


v0.9.8

Main Jobs

  • ✨ Input Loader v0.1.1 Support (and you can still install v0.1.0, too, but shouldn't.



Cyberdeck Upgrades aka Internal Stuff(tm)

  • 🛡️ More Robust Load Order Protection There were some cases in which a race condition or unexpectedly deleted V2077/ directory could cause the Load Order to be reset. Put a Cerberus on it, see 'em weefles try it now.




v0.9.7

Fixer Gigs

-  Redscript mods can now include a hints file in `r6/config/redsUserHints/`


v0.9.6

Fixer Gigs

- Support ArchiveXL 1.3.4 structure


v0.9.5

Fixer Gigs

 Autoconversion is off by default. Beware the mean reds.

v0.9.4

Fixer Gigs

- Spyder Murphy's Law The special archive handling in CET, Redscript, and Red4ext mods is gone, which means that now all archives can be autoconverted. (They're auto-convertible :get-it-doggo:)

- Wear the Colors The few mods that were proactively splitting archives between REDmod  and classic now work correctly in the load order when autoconverted — both halves show up and can be independently ordered (they are still a single Vortex mod, though, so you can only enable or disable both.)

v0.9.3

Fixer Gigs

- cYbEr PuNk 2o77.Ex3 Since the 'case-insensitive' Windows filesystem doesn't actually _do_ a whole lot to guarantee any protection against any sort of problem, much like NCPD, there's a minor workaround to allow `cybercmd` to use case-sensitive comparison (until their fix is in.) To wit, we now spell `Cyberpunk2077` as `Cyberpunk2077`, not `cyberpunk2077`. Computers are great.

- :spy: No more autoconvert tags in mod names to reduce the name length, which is actually becoming a problem with ~200 REDmods installed. This defers the problem slightly, and we'll address it in a more flexible way ASAP (hopefully with an update to redMod itself.)

- DND: off! Show notifications for starting _and_ completing an on-demand REDdeployment (we changed the Net Architecture a bit to make this happen.)


v0.9.2

NOTE: cybercmd currently has an issue with the Launch Game button. Use the REDlauncher buttons or the launcher directly to run the game. (fixed in v0.9.3)

Main Jobs

✨ ArchiveXL REDmod support! ArchiveXL can now be installed in REDmods, including for MultiType mods. Autoconversion from heirloom ArchiveXL is also supported both standalone and along with `.archive` files.

Fixer Gigs

? redMod.exe will now always deploy order-only changes too! The `redMod.exe` tool doesn't currently correctly handle cases where only the load order is changed without enabling/disabling mods at the same time. Until that's fixed upstream, Vortex will default to force deployment. It's unfortunately slower, but hopefully won't get in the way too much because it's running in the background.

? REDmodding DLC check won't fail on non-store games!

Chippin' In - Tools of the Trade

⚒️ Run the game directly, `-modded`, no launcher. If you don't need the launcher, you can launch the game directly and still get the modded goodness (it's in the toolbar at the top, or on your dashboard.)

v0.9.1

Fixer Gigs

? Tools from other games won't crash if user has our extension but the game is not installed. Until and if Vortex offers isolation from other games touching our stuff, we need to be extra careful not to touch any CP2077-specific stuff until we know that the user is actually invoking one of our tools.


v0.9 "Rogue"

Main Jobs

✨ Full REDmod support! You can install and manage REDmods alongside all the others. *Note:* this is for new installations or reinstalls only. We don't want to accidentally break your existing mods, so you can choose when and if you want to migrate them yourself! Just hit Reinstall when you're ready.

✨ Load Ordering! Drag and drop to order any mods that need ordering! Topmost is highest priority. Note that load order _only_ works on REDmods, and that the game will always load old-style archives at a higher priority and therefore override REDmods (this is where autoconversion comes in handy). Unmanaged REDmods are not supported at this time, so you'll need to reinstall them through Vortex to get everything to play nice together.

✨ Autoconversion of old-style mods to REDmods! This is a togglable feature (check out Settings), but we highly recommend that you leave it on unless there's an issue installing a mod.

✨ Automatic REDmod deployment! Yep, no need to hit the terminal, every time you run a deployment in Vortex, your load order is deployed too. As soon as you see the notification that it's done, you can just start the game. And you can trigger a REDdeployment on-demand, too, at the click of a button in the toolbar.

✨ Jack right in! Finally, the default launch button will launch the game directly, with REDmods enabled. No need for the terminal or a separate launcher. If you do want to go through the launcher (for achievements, perhaps), there's the REDlauncher Tool in your toolbar and dashboard that will do just that.


Fixer Gigs

? All fixes we needed to make were released in v0.8.1, v0.8.2, and v0.8.3, this one's the big leagues.


Cyberdeck Upgrades aka Internal Stuff(tm)

? A major addition is the ability to define mod type data. In this release it's used to support REDmods, but in the future it can be used for things like true conflict checking, safe cleanup scripts for tricky mods, and so much more...

⚙️ All the internal changes and refactorings are too numerous to mention, but we were able to build on the foundation we'd already set up and make some major changes, and we've got some new foundations to build nova stuff on.

Full release notes here ↗️


Previous releases:

v0.8.3 "Third's the Charm, TAKEMURA"

  • ? FIXES Core Redscript to support v0.5.7.
  • ? cybercmd, which is required to run Redscript v0.5.7 when `-modded` is
    • already supported, so you can just install that normally.


v0.8.1 "TAKEMURA... point one, I guess?"
  • ? FIXES Core Input Loader to support the new 1.6-compatible version.
  • ?️ (It also adds the ability to install REDmods but that's of limited

Full release notes here ↗️

v0.6.0 "Evelyn":

  • Protected paths (...which show a prompt so you don't accidentally overwrite them)

Fixer Gigs:
  • Fixed MultiType mod install bug

Cyberware Upgrades:

Full release notes here ↗️

0.4.1 "Sandra":

Main jobs:

  • TweakXL Support
  • ArchiveXL Support
  • Internalized pipeline for installation
  • Giftwrapping for handling a single folder at the top level

Fixer Gigs:
  • various small changes and fixes


0.3.0 "Jackie":

  • Generally a bunch more usable
  • Most mod types and file layouts now supported (CET, Redscript, Red4Ext, INI, Reshade, JSON config, Archives...)
  • Anything not directly supported (yet) can be installed (but we'll prompt you for it)
  • Helpful (?) error and info messages
  • Lots of under the hood changes

0.2.2:

  • Converted the sources code to typescript and set the extension to not allow symlink deployment (so hardlink and move files are the deployment methods).
  • Also added an installer for mods that have just an archive file, regardless of how the mod is packaged in it's folders, it will be placed into the `archive/pc/mod` folder as is required by the game.


Plans:

  • Improved support and validation for correctly structured Archive, CET, Redscript, Red4Ext, INI, Reshade, JSON config mods
  • Support for valid combinations of the above
  • Automatic fixing of some most common structure problems (such as Archives not in .\archive\pc\mod\)
  • Fallback installer for things we don't explictly handle
  • Much more informative messaging for errors and especially cases where

Future:
  • Detect when a mod add files and attempt to find out what was added and add it to the staging area so that when disabling mods, all of it's files are removed as expected
  • File-based automatic option selection dialogs (e.g. one of 10 different color options)
  • Automatic selection dialogs when detecting problems that can't be automatically fixed
  • Load order management?

Validation
