What it is

Cyber Engine Tweaks is a free framework for scripting mods for Cyberpunk 2077 with Lua and access to internal game scripting features. It includes a Dear ImGui interface for mods, a console and a TweakDB editor, along with developer options such as diagnostics, assertions, a debug menu and logging game options. Included patches can be enabled or disabled through settings or configuration files, though changes require restarting the game. Examples include removing pedestrians and traffic, disabling temporal antialiasing, suppressing intro movies and skipping the start menu. RED4ext is a prerequisite. The project distributes current releases through GitHub Releases and provides wiki documentation for installation, usage and modding. Windows is supported; Linux instructions cover use through Proton, including Steam and non-Steam/Wine setups. Release notes for Patch 2.31 list support for game version 2.31. The repository includes an MIT license permitting use, modification and distribution subject to its conditions, and provides the software without warranty.
