Cyber Engine Tweaks
What it is
Cyber Engine Tweaks is a framework for creating Cyberpunk 2077 mods with Lua and access to the game’s internal scripting features. It includes a Dear ImGui interface for mods, a console, and a TweakDB editor for advanced use. Modders can also use an ImGui diagnostics window, assertions, a debug menu, and a tool for logging game options. Optional patches can be enabled or disabled in settings or configuration files; changes take effect after restarting the game. Listed patches include removing pedestrians and traffic, disabling temporal antialiasing, suppressing intro movies, and skipping the start menu. RED4ext is a prerequisite and must be installed first. The project distributes releases through GitHub and provides wiki documentation for installation, usage, and modding. It tracks Cyberpunk 2077 releases, with its Patch 2.31 release notes listing support for game version 2.31. Windows is supported, and Linux use is documented through Proton. The framework is free and MIT-licensed; that license permits use and distribution under its conditions and provides no warranty.
