Patch Notes

• Combat has been made noticeably more difficult, headshots are now far more rewarding, while poor aim carries a real penalty.
• Stealth has been made easier. Vanilla-style sneaking is back, with the only change being that your surroundings now react to noise from related actions.
• Thrown items (excluding Legendary and Iconic weapons) must now be manually retrieved after use. Super immersive.
• Hacking's time dilation now runs on a "Dilation" bar instead of the previous RAM-based system.
• Modded vehicles are now exclusive to the player and will no longer spawn randomly out in traffic.
• Starting a new game now grants starting weapons based on your chosen Lifepath, making the intro questline far more manageable, running it with just a starter pistol on Very Hard proved significantly harder than intended.
• Injury mechanics are now handled by Digital Vixen's Injuries mod.
• Ammo counts have been significantly increased across the board.
• Fixers are now engaged through dedicated quests rather than unsolicited calls, much more immersive than the old telemarketer routine.
• Reloading must now be triggered manually.
• Careless reloading is now penalized. For example, reloading with 25/30 rounds remaining will discard those 25 rounds instead of folding them into the new magazine.
• True First Person introduces a range of changes, including leaning, and adds meaningful incentive to run the "Aimassist" optic mod, which previously felt unnecessary for most playstyles.

2.0.0 June 4 2026

Updated

• Digital Vixen Core
• Limited HUD
• Claim or Sell Stolen Vehicles
• General Shadows Fixes
• Virtual Car Dealer
• NC Fashion Virtual Atelier
• XRX Platform High Boots
• Night City Remembers

Added

• EXRC - Runtime Controller

• Combat Evolved - Hardcore Gunsensical
• Preem Hair
• Lizzie's Bar Overhaul
• The Afterlife Overhaul
• Empathy Cleanup and Overhaul
• Vanguard Auto

Removed

• Judy's Voicemail
• Faster Metro Caused crashes on the intro sequence, and not enough players use the metro to justify keeping it.
• No Enemy Level Scaling Extreme difficulty to balance — good in concept, bad in application.
• Night City Traffic Overhaul – Traffic Density Caused crashes on reloading, possibly a bad NPC population method.
• Threadscapes Caused crashes and created a legendary crafting mat exploit — not ideal.
• More Cautious And Chaotic Enemies
• Alternative Hair Material
• Reinforcement System Caused serious infinite combat bugs that led to crashes. There is a fix but it's currently rough — might revisit it personally down the line.
• Immersive Healing The mod is currently bugged, I would like to fix it but haven't had the time.

Patch Notes

• Gig rewards and gun prices have been increased by 40–60% and 100–150% respectively. Guns should be a luxury, something afforded by gangs and a lucky few. You don't really see that many civilians strapped, do ya?
• The combat experience has been overhauled to feel a bit more arcadey, but still realistic enough to be reasonable. Balancing high-damage combat without the proper tools is harder than imagined, but don't worry that concept will be revisited soon.
• Reworked the entire exploration-reward dynamic. Legendary items are still obtainable but significantly rarer, and not dramatically stronger than other tiers, leveling up will be necessary to unlock their full potential.
• The "you shouldn't be here" feel has been toned down. Combat will feel more equal whilst still being lethal.
• Stealth has been buffed slightly, grabbing someone for a stealth takedown should now work more reliably than before.
• Being rescued by Trauma Team should now also repair your Cyberware. Wohoo immersion!
• Crafting by your car stash now needs the trunk to be open.

1.0.0 May 14 2026

Added

• Initial release

This section contains the issues that I am aware of and will try to fix. However there are cases that its an engine issue and I cannot do anything about it.

1. Can't shoot through modded car's windows but shooting at the windshield works

   Some modded vehicles are basically a remodeled Caliburn. The Rayfield Caliburn's windows are impenetrable but are shootable at the windshield, hence the behavior.

2. Zenitex Tool Tip Errors

   I'm waiting for an update, for now jus ignore it, you'll live :>

3. Bald V / Glitchy shadows

   This is a problem with both CDPR's lazy animation and Mod Authors not pulling a shadow mesh in their hair mods. If you encounter this with Cyberware from character creation, it might be bad mesh, let me know if you encounter it anywhere else.

4. Enemy HP Bar gets bigger when they're healing

   This is because of Combat Evolved, I have reported the issue to the author
