📋 About This Mod

Character Preset Manager (CET)

Save, load, organize, recover, and share complete Cyberpunk 2077 character appearances.

Current Version: 3. 1. 1

Download on Nexus Mods  ·  Discord and Support  ·  GitHub Source Code

Character Preset Manager is the successor to Appearance Change Unlocker (ACU). It carries compatible ACU preset collections forward and expands the idea into a complete appearance library with safer loading, folders, compatibility checks, recovery, sharing, backups, and clear activity records.

The mod has two interfaces. Use the simple panel inside Cyberpunk's character screens for quick saving and one-click loading. Open the complete manager through the Cyber Engine Tweaks overlay when you want every feature or need a dependable fallback.

Important: Appearance Change Unlocker itself is incompatible and should be removed or disabled before using Character Preset Manager. Compatible ACU preset files remain supported. Character Customization Anywhere is also incompatible and must be removed. Fully restart the game after changing either mod.

Features

[]Complete Appearance Presets — Save and load every visible vanilla, CC, and CCXL character option available in the active editor.

[]Native Character-Screen Panel — Browse, refresh, load, recover, save, and move presets to Trash from new-game creation, the Full Appearance Editor, apartment mirrors, and supported ripperdoc screens.

[]Full Appearance Editor Anywhere — Open Cyberpunk's complete character editor during normal play from CET or an optional key.

[]Full Apartment Mirrors — Use the complete character-creation option list through ordinary apartment mirrors.

[]One-Click Loading — Select a preset once and let the mod handle editor refreshes, dependent choices, cleanup, and final verification.

[]Detailed Comparison — Check matching, changing, missing, repeated or uncertain, invalid, and extra options before loading when you want a review.

[]Safer Appearance Cleanup — Clear old dependent and leftover choices so eye colors, makeup, and similar settings do not remain stuck from the previous preset.

[]Five-Entry Appearance History — Use Undo Last Load or browse Recovery History to restore one of the five newest appearances, with a fresh safety snapshot created before recovery.

[*]Unlimited CET Folders — Organize presets in folders and nested folders without creating matching W

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

Character Preset Manager (CET) is a Cyberpunk 2077 mod that saves, loads, organizes, and shares complete character appearances through Cyber Engine Tweaks. It adds a full appearance editor anywhere, apartment mirror options, one-click preset loading, unlimited virtual folders, search, notes/tags, and recoverable trash. Built for players who switch V's look often and want safe CCXL option handling.

✨ Key Features

Save and load complete character appearances, including exposed CC and CCXL options.
Open the full vanilla appearance editor during normal gameplay from CET or an optional hotkey.
Use the complete character-creator option set through normal apartment mirrors.
One-click preset loading that safely waits for Cyberpunk to rebuild the editor.
Unlimited virtual folders with create, rename, copy, nest, and organize options.
Stable CCXL choice matching for Format-7 presets so added options don't silently redirect saved choices.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • 67 endorsements and 2,452 downloads show a loyal user base that trusts this tool.
  • One-click loading with safe rebuild handling means no more script errors when swapping presets.
  • Full apartment mirror access lets you tweak your look without starting a new game or using debug commands.

⚠️ Cons

  • No install instructions in the description so new CET users must figure out file placement themselves.
  • Requires Cyber Engine Tweaks (CET) installed and working; if CET breaks after a game update, this mod goes down with it.
  • Only manages appearances — it won't add new hairstyles or clothing; you still need separate cosmetic mods for actual visual variety.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Cyberpunk 2077 players who spend hours in character creator and want to save, share, and switch between multiple V looks on the fly. For roleplayers who like changing appearance between missions without restarting. Skip if you're happy with vanilla character creation and don't want CET overhead.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute if CET is already installed; add 5-10 minutes if installing CET from scratch.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Install Cyber Engine Tweaks first, then drop this mod's folder into your Cyberpunk 2077 directory (same folder as /bin/x64).
  • Bind a hotkey in CET's overlay to open the appearance editor quickly during gameplay.
  • Use the preset compatibility summary before loading to avoid mismatched options if you've recently updated CC or CCXL.
