Simple Alerts - Plus Date And Time Display

Simple Alerts And Date/Time Display

Simple Alerts is a modder's resource that lets other mods display clean, customizable messages directly on the HUD. Perfect for status updates, warnings, confirmations, or immersive flavor text.

Built with CET and utilizing native game InkWidget logic, this mod is designed as a dependency for other mods to use. It handles widget creation, dynamic sizing, queuing, and timed visibility. All you need to do is call "ShowAlert()" or "HideAlert()".

Mod users can also enable an option to display the current system date and time when no alert messages are displayed or queued for display.

Features

• []Displays in-game messages with automatic queuing and timed dismissal.

  []Uses HUD colors/styles, so will change with recolors from mods such as "HUD Painter", and with font overrides.

  []Resolution-aware sizing and padding (scales from 1080p).

  []No wrapping, but multiple lines are supported by using lua line breaks in your alert text, for example ("First Line Text\nSecond Line Text"). Each line will be centered and the background height will stretch to fill the area behind them.

  []Smart widget reuse and cleanup across game states.

  []Easy API for mod authors: just call "SimpleAlerts. ShowAlert(...)" with the parameters outlined below.

  []Mod users can optionally enable a date/time display while no alerts are queued or displayed. This will show your current system's date/time, but forces the year to 2077. While this is enabled, you can also optionally hide the date/time display for combat, driving, and scanning. This option is enabled by default and can be toggled in the mod's CET overlay window. This was added just to give the mod some kind of in-game use for mod users even if no other mods are installed that utilize the alerts system (and is inspired by RealTimeWidgets by u/Scream81).

  Installation:

  • []Install Cyber Engine Tweaks (CET)

  []Download and extract this mod into your Cyberpunk 2077 game installation folder, or install with Vortex/other mod manager.

  Uninstallation:

  • []Simply delete the SimpleAlerts folder from . Mods that depend on it will no longer be able to show alerts, but should still function otherwise as long as the mod author included proper checks for this mod's existence.
