📋 About This Mod

This mixes pretty well with my No CC Attribute Restrictions (it is not compatible with the addons for that mod, though)... This will allow you to lower these modded base stats to get more points to spec however you want...

It also mixes pretty well with LifePaths Matter by u/esuriddick and Lifepath Bonuses And Gang-Corp Traits by u/rmk1234

Added a "v2" alternate version... I feel like the stats fit a bit better with the lifepaths... Left the old version as the main version, though, as it's all a bit more balanced...

"v3" version now available... Uses Corpo and Nomad stats from v2, and Streetkid stats from v1, as suggested...

Installation:

  • []Install requirement (TweakXL) if you don't already have

    []Extract to main CP77 install folder

  • []Short video guide for installing most CP77 mods

Uninstallation:

  • []Delete the "00StartingAttributesDeterminedByLifepath" folder from your folder

    Known Issues:

    Selecting the "Reset to Default" option does not reset to these values, but sets all values to the vanilla default of 3... I'm trying to figure out where the default is stored and if it's possible to change it per lifepath... You can reset to the modded values by backing out to the Lifepath selection menu (meaning you will need to recreate your character unless you save it as an appearance with Appearance Change Unlocker)...
