📋 About This Mod

Basics:

The core mod for the Night City Interactions mods/addons.

On its own it contains the Edgerunners Tour meta quest that features locales from each of the Edgerunners anime episodes.

This mod is required for all NCI Addons, handles their execution, and holds their shared localisation resources.

The logic is setup such that new addons can be added at any time, without having to reboot or reset any of them or this one.

Addons:

Watson: Partner drinks at Tom's Diner, Lizzies, and Afterlife; plus a few solo drink spots

Westbrook: Partner drinks at Lele Park, Dark Matter, and Xiao Xiongma; plus a few solo drink spots

Heywood: Partner drinks at Chubby Buffalo's, Dicky Twister, Pinche Polo, and El Coyote Cojo

Pacifica and Badlands: Partner drinks at both Nomad Camps, the Sunset Motel; plus a few solo drink spots

Santo Domingo: Partner drinks at Buryger, Red Dirt, Kenmore Diner, the Market, PieZ, and Capitan Caliente

City Center: Partner drinks at 7th Hell, Empathy, Memorial Park Patio, the Port Cafe, and Downtown greenhouse spot.

Why the split into addons?

The original Night City Interactions was a huge monolithic mess! All spots, for all districts, and the Edgerunners stuff, everything, was just one scene file that was always loaded, everywhere in Night City!

Splitting the mod into individual districts, and within them individual scenes for each locations means that:

  • []Bugs are easier to fix[/]

    []New locations are easier to add[/]

    []Individual locations, and whole districts, only need to be loaded when nearby[/]

    []Different locations can be more customised[/]

    []Users can have better confidence in what is installed and running[/]

    How to install and 'start' the mod:

    Unzip the .zip file into the "Cyberpunk 2077" folder so that the archive and archive.xl files end up in the "Cyberpunk 2077\archive\pc\mod" folder.

    Once in game, travel to V's apartment (in H10, if you are already there, leave and return).

    If the mod is working, after 2 seconds a popup will appear to inform you that it is working, followed by any popups for any installed addons.

    How to upgrade the mod you already have installed:

    Install the update as normal, and then after 2 seconds a popup will appear to inform you that it is working, followed by any popups for any installed addons.

    How to reset/reboot the mod:

    You can reset/reboot the running mod, if something is somehow broken, by entering the following command:
