This city will get you every time. You think you have it all for a minute, a crew like no other, a plan that'll make you rich or make you a legend... and then somebody sets off a nuke and it's all ash in the sky. But you pick yourself up under the red twilight that reminds you of what you lost every single day, and you keep going. Make the deals, take the jobs, get involved with the wrong people in the right places. You reinvent yourself. You rebuild. You survive.
You thrive. You come out on top, untouchable, and it's your city now. Because you were always the Queen.

Mostly Auska (@effs) and Ellie (@E1337Kat) this time around, but we're grateful for the help from both CDPR and Nexus Mods immediately after the REDmodding news dropped - special thanks to @Pickysaurus for even contributing code, and @rfuzzo for bearing with the endlessly meticulous questions about REDmodding implementation minutiae to make sure we'd be able to be 100% compatible! (Pretty sure we hit every remaining bug and quirk in the redmodding tools in this process :innocent:)
As always, thanks to all of you for your feedback, suggestions, bug reports, support, and in this case a little patience too!
2.01 Re-Enables Redmods The problem introduced by PL should no longer be an issue, but you may need to clean up your installation for an easier time: just Disable and Purge everything, run Mod Remover, and then update + re-enable mods.
Original message:
2.0 and Phantom Liberty both Introduce Problems with Redmods specifically.
If you're getting a crash right at the first splash screen after deploying from Vortex, you can try:
1. Copy all .bin files from r6/cache/ to r6/cache/modded/ and try again 2. If that didn't work, after deployment and 1. open r6/cache/modded/mods.json and change all mods to "deployedHash": 0 and "deployed": false
It should work from Vortex (use the run with mods enabled button, Dashboard > Tools if it's not visible), but on 2.0 the store launchers at least also work. Not sure about PL functionality yet.
Another alternative is converting everything to archivepcmods. This may be easier in the short term, until redmod and the launchers are fixed.
1. Any mods that were autoconverted, you can right click -> Reinstall (after turning autoconvert off) 2. Any mods that have an archivepcmod version, you can install that over the Redmod version 3. Any mods that only have a Redmod version, and only have archives (or tweaks when they work again), you need to wrap. This is a bit more advanced, but there shouldn't be many of these. Disable the mod first. Then download the mod manually and extract it. If it's just a single .archive, you can dragdrop that to Vortex (there's a dropdown area at the bottom of the mods view.) If there's lots of archives or something else, you need to fix it to correct paths yourself.
"Unlock Me The Mods" triggers the Fallback Installer in Vortex for some reason. Based on the discussion for that mod, this is an issue for a handful of people.
Downloading 12.3 GB of City of Dreams and I've probably had to click these 100s of times already and not even halfway through:
When you see a pop-up titled "Mod contains protected paths" select "Yes install to staging anyway"
When you see a pop-up titled "You have reached the fallback installer" select "Yes install to staging anyway"
When you see a pop-up titled "not an archive" select "create mod".
When you see a pop-up titled "Mod installed but may need manual adjustment" select "Understood".
When you see a pop-up titled "Error" select "close"
Throughout the installation process, you will have some "installer" popups so that you can customize some mods to your liking.
Please devs, add a "do not ask again" check box. It's our own damn fault if we do it wrong, but I am tired of clicking the same answer over and over, especially when there is only one option like "understood"
1200 mods and I have to click these annoying pop ups hundreds of times. Fucking ridiculous. Same as "Reinstall this mod" there is no option to "reinstall all duplicates" or "Ignore all duplicates". Although I saw it exist but for some reason, only under certain conditions.
Does discord work? just joined but it looks empty no channels or anything, I'm having this same problem. (I'm trying to download archiveXL and tweakXl but vortex says it cannot find expected installation)

any idea how to fix this?
I expect to find primary EXEs in the root folder, but for this game, it's lurking in \bin\x64\Cyberpunk2077.exe
Web searches suggest that it's always been there, but it's odd that all three of my Wolvenkit installs suddenly lost it, this morning.
Heavy shrug. Back to work. ...
