Most Cyberpunk 2077 modding guides are either outdated, give off complicating solutions such as using Vortex, which is perfect for other games, but terrible for beginner’s trying to mod Cyberpunk 2077. This mod guide will go in depth and adopt a step-by-step guide to allow you to mod your Cyberpunk in the most simplest and stress free manner.

cheat but super fun, perfect no issues)
Arasaka Apperance Update https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/399?tab=description This may or may not work, also do not install this in your directory, simply place it on your desktop or elsewhere! Caution is advised)
Save Editor Cybercat, https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/718 (This may or may not work, but has a higher success rate than Arasaka Appearance Updater! Caution is advised)

Immersive First Person Camera https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/2675?tab=description (This mod may pose some issues, that being with the Samurai Jacket or potentially other clothing, the collars of the jacket or sleeves may get in the way of your camera especially when using Katana's or other melee weapons. Additionally during 'Pyramid Song' your character's helmet will be in the way and you will barely see anything, to fix this issue, set one of the hotkeys in AMM to hiding your 'outfit' you will be naked during the quest but will see, if any of these issues seem problematic, do not download this mod, Additionally, when wearing the Bandaged outfit, the cut scene with meeting Johnny the first time, you will see the bandage head wrapping in the way, once again either uninstall the mod before this or hide your outfit, you will be naked of course. That being said this mod is very immersive other than those issues.)
Sleeves https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/3309?tab=description (This mod is perfect on its own, but may conflict with Immersive First Camera, you can combine them of course but will have some of the problems as mentioned before, if you don't care about being naked for a few cut scenes and do not wear the samurai jacket then you should be fine)
Arasaka Cyber Arms https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/1099 (This is perfect and has no issues, so long as you follow the modders instructions perfectly, and do not conflict the mod with other cybernetic visual arms)

Panam Alternate Outfits + Lod PATCH https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/1699?tab=description, I use Evening Booted and Rocker No Cyberware, Soul Killer install one of the archives, not all of them, delete the previous one and install another if you change the clothing. Perfect no issues)

Walker https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/576?tab=description
(This mod got updated recently, due to my and someone else's help, as well as the Modder revitalizing it) Read the instruction's carefully as this can make or break your game.
Game time tweaks (Longer nights, shorter days, perfect in combination with the reshade, darker lighting, e3 lighting 2018) https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/870?tab=description
I didn't include this in the main guide as it isn't exactly beginner friendly, that being said the option is there and that concludes all the mods being up to 72 mods!
Hahahaha, that intro. Good job on the guide man it's better than I expected, but I noticed you haven't linked the mod for the FGR and Perks overhaul wip, when will you? I guess I'll just stick to one or the other for now.
Hello! I think the video is helpful, but please add timestamps!
Edit. IF YOUR CET CONSOLE COMMAND DOES NOT OPEN AUTOMATICALLY, PRESS THE TILDE BUTTON ` . DO BE SURE TO DISABLE ANY AND ALL OVERLAYS BEFORE TESTING CET, AND BE SURE TO CHECK IF CET IS WORKING BEFORE INSTALLING FURTHER MODS!
Edit 2: All extra MODS have been moved to the other comment by me as there was finally some space to include all of them in one, due to YouTube finally giving me the option to timestamp.
One last thing! Mod 41 E3 2018 Lighting Mod. Be sure to install this mod, it removes the forced sharpening from patch 1.31 or 1.2, make's it look much more appealing with the reshade and darker lighting.
https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/1347?tab=description
How to install it?
Drag the 3 files
'Archive'
'Engine'
'r6'
Like the content bro, keep it up.
I think the link to the Free Attributes mod takes you to the wrong mod?
I installed all of this and it worked perfectly yesterday, today though.. my game crashes shortly after hitting "Continue" on the main menu.
Great video !
Happy Cyberpunk anniversary just came back to say this is the best mod guide out there! Thank you so much bro. I followed the guide and got all the mods and the game looks absolutely amazing and different than the vanilla base version. I have had 1-2 crashes but is probably because of my PC. To others, I also recommend downloading the E3 2018 lighting mod and the extras shown at the end like the Panam alternate outfit, Judy's etc. One thing I'd like is a walking mod, since the best game doesn't have it. Will you include one in the future or should we go about doing it ourselves. Once again thank you for this video <3
Awesome guide through! Learned so much and was able to do everything perfectly with all of the guidance and going into each mod specifically was like a cherry on top! Excellent content!
Thank for video, I have little to no knowledge on this stuff so this helped a lot. 🙌
Thank you!! First time modder and this has been amazing, no issues and I really appreciate how it was a real step by step process so I couldnt mess it up lol. I can now play the game and in a totally different way from my first playthrough. I dont really comment on videos but this guide is preem
Best guide out there. You deserve more subs brother. Also shout out for the Devil May Cry music, followed the guide and it paid off! No offence but I would turn your mic volume up or buy a new one! Subbed, Keep it up 👌
Thanks for this most guides tell me to use vortex and it’s so fucking confusing, manual is the way. I saw your guide on Nexus and endorsed your mod! Also subbed for the Judy thumbnail ❤️❤️❤️
Top notch guide mate, you have a calm, soothing voice and easy to understand subbed. I’m waiting on that Takemura video and 1.5 modding guide! Because we best believe CDPR will break all mods again at that update. Also I died of laughter here 39:30
Good video bro, good guide straight to the point with the timestamps. Subbed
Guys honestly a great bloke, helped me out with some modding issues and genuinely cares about and enjoys the game. Cheers Samurai, we've a city to burn.
Keep up the good work brother, hoping to see more content in the future
Wow chooms, thank you for 500 views, and almost 70 subs (Never had this many subs ever) the goal is 100. and a 1,000 by the end of 2022 🙂
Thank you for giving this video a chance, and I promise more content will be coming, that you may all like ;). YOU'RE ALL BREATHTAKING. Timestamps have finally started working SO ALL THE MOD NAMES, AND LINKS HAVE BEEN MOVED TO THIS COMMENT, EXTRAS WILL BE IN THE THIRD COMMENT BY ME. THANKS!
I Forgot to mention in the beginning, but once navigating to your 'Cyberpunk 2077/archive/pc/' If you see a folder called patch, rename it to 'mod', if you see a folder called 'mod', that's fine. If you do not have any folder, create one and rename it to 'mod'. if you see a folder called 'Mod' or 'Mods' rename it to 'mod'. And most older mods, such as January ones will most likely work!
