Initial Cyberpunk support should be pretty simple. Most mod installation is just a case of deploying the files into the game's install directory.

RedMod is also not really supported by linux, Ive tried using it before by
itself and in tandem with red4ext, redsxript, tweakxl and theblike and it
always breaks. For normal mods, the .archive files go in: Root Folder >
Archive > pc > mod ; while others install into: Root Folder > r6/bin>x64
and so on. very very simple file structure.

RedMod mods are less common, support custom load orders and may require
running the redmod exe as part of a deployment stage. However, RedMod
integration could be a separate stretch goal as a) RedMod mods are uncommon
(and usually have a non-RedMod alternative) and b) a user wishing to use
RedMod should be able to do any extra steps manually.

RedMod has worked fine for me using wine/vortex in the past, though I did have issues with the 2.0 update. As for the file structure, most mods are archived with the files already placed in the correct directories. I think vortex does do some "smarter" checks, so if the mod archive doesn't have a directory structure it tries to guess where to put the contained files. But like I said, most mods do contain the directory structure. |

Id need somone to show me the standard directories mods goto(and their extensions), and cyberpunks structure and ill make a test |

.archive files go into Cyberpunk 2077/archive/pc/mod/ This is my install location for my Cyberpunk 2077 game on my home drive. I don't know about flatpaks but I assume it's similar to others, I'm using a native install since I'm on Fedora 38. /home/[user]/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Cyberpunk 2077/ Mods like Cyber Engine Tweaks, Codeware, ArchiveXL, TweakXL, EquipmentXL, Red4EXT and similar all have their folder structures set up so that all you have to do is unzip them into the root folder and they go where they need to go. a few mods need to be manually installed simply because they're packed with a LOT of different options that need something like FOMOD to install, or do so manually.

No, haven't seen any Cyberpunk mods using FOMOD installers, although technically there's no reason why they couldn't. It's very unlikely any ever will, as a lot of Cyberpunk modders seem to prefer manual installation over mod managers, for some reason.
A lot of Cyberpunk mods claim that they should be manually installed. However I haven't found a single mod that didn't work correctly with Vortex. I found one mod that needed to be installed using the "Unpack As-Is" option because something was confusing Vortex's mod-file detection script. I believe many people simply do not understand how Vortex works or how to use it.
This is probably the only thing to check; does the mod contain |
|
what I meant by a few mods needing to be manually installed was they don't have the archive>pc>mod folder architecture in the zip/rar/7z file, so you have to manually place them in there. I don't use fomod cause I've never been able to get it to work on Linux. It'd work once, then never start up again. |

Alright seems like well have to wait for the filesystem update as it will need the ability to reset. the root folders to remove mods. However i can make something very quickly that will move things but wont remove them. |
|
Lamps filesystem is now in canary (check the discord its where canary builds are posted) which means im now actively working on C77 support i should have a c77 first test build either tonight or tomorrow. |
|
Well, ive made a test version and its live in the discord please give it a test and see if it functions as you expect. It is also available here: |
|
Basic Cyberpunk support is in, please enjoy the Canary-Stable release at the bottom of #50 until 1.0.9 is fully released. |
Was just tossing this into the ring for potential future updates by adding Cyberpunk 2077 to the mod manager. Not now or soon, obviously, but after all the other stuff that's on the list is taken care of.
