The long-awaited Cyberpunk 2077 mod is finally set to release on March 12th, bringing new and exciting features to the popular dystopian game.
Fans of the game have been eagerly anticipating the launch of this mod, which promises to enhance the game’s overall experience and immerse players in the futuristic world of Night City like never before.
Hulk Hogan, a renowned modder, has created the Cyberpunk 2077 HD Reworked Project texture mod, which has generated much anticipation among fans. The mod is expected to improve the game’s texture quality. Hogan claimed that the mod’s optimization was so meticulous that there would be no negative impact on the game’s performance as long as the user’s VRAM was sufficient.
Through his extensive optimization work, Hogan promised that the game’s performance would not be affected as long as the user had enough unused VRAM. Although this claim may appear overly optimistic, Hogan had earned a reputation for himself with his previous successful mod, The Witcher 3 HD Reworked Project, which garnered so much attention that CD Projekt RED even integrated it as one of the mods in their Next-Gen update.
The Ray Tracing: Overdrive update is a collaboration between CD Projekt RED and NVIDIA set to improve the graphics of Cyberpunk 2077 and the Cyberpunk 2077 HD Reworked Project texture mod.
This upgrade includes advanced ray tracing features such as NVIDIA RTX Direct Illumination (RTXDI), which will produce accurate ray-traced lighting and shadows for various objects in the game, resulting in precise illumination for objects, walls, cars, and pedestrians.
The update will also enable multiple bounces of ray-traced indirect light and reflections, increasing the game’s realism. The ray-traced thoughts will be rendered at full resolution, and the lighting will be more physically-based, eliminating the need for additional occlusion techniques. In summary, the Ray Tracing: Overdrive update promises to significantly enhance the game’s visual quality and provide players with a more immersive gaming experience.
REDmod is a modding tool for Cyberpunk 2077 that can be used through the command line or integrated with the WolvenKit editor. It will receive frequent updates to maintain compatibility with the game.
The modding community is happy with REDmod and expects it to improve modders’ abilities and make their work easier, resulting in a better user experience. Despite the abundance of existing Cyberpunk 2077 mods, REDmod is anticipated to offer modders more options and greater flexibility.
CD Projekt RED’s recent shift to using Epic’s Unreal Engine 5 for their future games, including the upcoming The Witcher titles, is a significant move that marks the end of their previous REDengine technology.
As a result, the current version of REDengine available to users will be the last one. Unfortunately, CD Projekt RED has not yet implemented Steam Workshop support, so mods will still be downloaded from Nexus Mods. As we await the upcoming Phantom Liberty spy-thriller expansion, which will introduce a new Night City district and be available on PC and next-gen consoles in the following year, we will closely monitor any intriguing Cyberpunk 2077 mods.
