📋 About This Mod
COMPATIBLE WITH PATCH 2. 11
USE WITH FUTURE UPDATES AT YOUR OWN RISK. I stopped playing Cyberpunk so I won't keep these mods updated anymore. This means the RedMod variant will likely be incompatible with any future game updates, while the Redscript one might still work (as it only modifies part of the script). If anyone wants to take over, be my guest, you are free to do whatever you want with this mod, except sell it.
DESCRIPTION
Behaves like the original Hacking Gets Tedious, but it was made from scratch from the original game script from patch 2. 1.
In the hacking minigame just click any record on the first row, you should see everything turn green.
You can then exit (with "Exit Interface" or escape).
If you exit before, it will fail as it would normally: You can retry, but if you're in a hostile area, you will end up calling enemies to your location.
REDMOD VS REDSCRIPT
RedMod:
- [] replaces the whole script file, thus making it less compatible with other mods
[
] RedMod itself will work with new patches, but you might still need to wait for your mods to be updated
- [] replaces only certain methods (functionality), thus being limited to what you can change with it, but more compatible with other mods
[
] Redscript itself might not work with new patches until it is updated (usually a few days), but once it is, you might not need to wait for your mods to get a new release
Be consistent. If you already have Redscript installed and working, use the Redscript version. Otherwise, I recommend trying the RedMod version. Simply because the RedMod version might not work alongside other Redscript mods.
INSTALLING
Choose either RedMod or Redscript version. Just be consistent.
In either case, extract the files to your game folder.
UNINSTALLING
Remove the files from your game folder:
-
[]for RedMod version, remove the mods\HackingGetsTedious folder.
[
]for Redscript version, remove the r6\scripts\HackingGetsTedious.reds file.COMPATIBILITY
The RedMod version will not be compatible with any other mods (including Redscript ones) that modify the hackingMinigameUtils.script file.
The Redscript version will not be compatible with any other mods that modify the following methods:
[]MinigameGenerationRuleOverridePrograms::OnProcessRule
[]MinigameGenerationRuleScalingPrograms:
