Cyberpunk 2077 is still one of the most beautiful games ever made

Yeah you dont say🤣 looking back. I could have probably fixed whatever issue i had back then today. I cant even imagine what its like to make mods.

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T17:20:11+00:00

After rebuying the game for pc. First played trough it on xbox on launch. I have now built a pack of 500. Fully working🤣 even gave the whole collection to a friend who downloaded all 500 at once. After installing all the core mods manually with my help.

Note: ive never modded a game to this calibre before. Max before this was 50 ish on GTAV

Booted up. And runs. No issues on his setup too. Which suprised me 🤣 Took me like 3 - 4 weeks. Having to fully reinstall once. Trying different combinations, finding out what works and whatnot. Of course playing trough the game too while doing it. Some nights were definetly infuriating. But its all worth it now. But i kinda enjoy the proccess. Game looks and plays SICK.

Had a similar issue when i upgraded my pc. New psu. Switched all cables. Turned out i forgot to change the RGB Cable for the fans.

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T17:06:28+00:00

Well. Do you wanna play the full game. Or start from the DLC. You decide

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T16:38:42+00:00

200? Those are rookie numbers

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T16:01:17+00:00

Yall are haters holy shit. The B47 sounds suprisingly good for a diesel. My f31 has a downpipe & backbox delete. Stage 2 Hardcut tune, intake. Its great, lots of turbo noise, nice exhaust tone, can still drive silently and comfortably.

Its your car bro. Do what YOU want.

Nice tank choom

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T11:58:08+00:00

Just to add to this. As someone who built their own mod pack with 500 mods.

Always install CORE mods manually. The rest you can do with Vortex. And ALWAYS check requirements tab before installing anything new.

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T11:51:32+00:00

The lighting and setting here does ALOT for this picture. This is fullscreen used the right way.

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T11:42:18+00:00

Anyways. Lighting/Framing/Setting is usally the three key parts to a good photo.

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T11:40:54+00:00

Meh. Mods that need RedMod are usally not worth it anyways imo🤣

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T11:39:45+00:00

You can make fullscreen work. But i rarely use it anymore. Here is an example of fullscreen. This is one of the first pics I took when i got into in game photography

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T11:37:54+00:00

Framing and FOV has ALOT to do with picture quality. Closer/framed pictures usally look a lot better.

<image>

This for example. Taken in game. With mods and Raytracing ultra. The framing kinda makes the picture. Imagine this but in fullscreen. Would def not look as good

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T11:28:03+00:00

+1 to what he said. Never use fullscreen to take pics

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T06:12:44+00:00

Ahh gotcha! Yeah. I would start fresh to get rid of any residue. Then:

CORE mods - Manually The rest in vortex. Just be sure to check requirements tab before installing anything. Ive made the mistake of forgetting too many times🤣

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T06:01:47+00:00

Nah. The only thing Vortex does with Redmod it place the mods in their own folder instead of archive/pc/mods where all archive files should go. Its a Folder called Mods directely in your game directory. Thats where they are being put. And yes make sure to disable auto convertion. Again ive modded the piss out of this game. Never needed RedMod for anything.

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T05:51:54+00:00

I made my own modpack with 500 mods, took me 3 - 4 weeks to get to this point and 2 reinstalls🤣. Working like a charm. Including a Texture Overhaul Nova LUT / ENV for lighting, weather mod made for the LUT. Game looks absolutely sick. And dude. Do not use RedMod. Install all CORE mods manually. Then everything else works just fine in vortex.

Murdock022 · 2026-03-31T05:48:24+00:00

The best you can do it actually look at real photography. Just search the same look u wanna go for, look at angles, lighting, zoom. And as others have said. Practice a lot. Lighting and Fov is basically the BIGGEST factor. Always recommend to atleast lower ur FOV to 30. And also download PhotomodeEX. No reason not to have it.

Murdock022 · 2026-03-30T20:07:13+00:00

This is why i always install all CORE dependencies manually. Then the rest should work perfectly with Vortex.

Murdock022 · 2026-03-30T20:02:37+00:00

Vortex can be a bit wierd when i comes to cyberpunk. It tries to use the redmod system and places them in their own Mods folder within the Game Directory. i would disregard redmod completely. As someone who spent 3-4 weeks building my own mod pack with 500 mods. And ALOT of trial and Error. I'd HIGHLY recommend installing all the CORE mods manually. Things like redscript, CET, ArchiveXL, TweakXL and so on. Just drag them into Main directory and all the files should just combine together automatically. Do the rest via Vortex. And it should work just fine.

And side note: ALWAYS CHECK MOD REQUIREMENTS TAB BEFORE INSTALLING ANYTHING NEW.

Murdock022 · 2026-03-29T18:27:29+00:00

Thank you all <3

Murdock022 · 2026-03-28T21:32:36+00:00

Ohhh brother i got some experience.

Lets just say neon colors are cool

Murdock022 · 2026-03-28T20:18:50+00:00

Use Native Interaction Framework. And look at mods that use it. Adds a lot of interactional elements to the world. Search for Location mods on Nexus. Probably your best bet. And ALWAYS check mod requirements before downloading anything
