That CET one is a big one. It enables a command console, which means you can type in commands to give you any of the weapons, attachments, clothes, cars, skill points, attributes, health, etc that you want.
I highly recommend at least getting that one and, if possible, the “let there be flight” mod which makes it so vehicles can convert the wheels into jets and fly around.
For those of you late to this and dont want to use a keyboard just map one of the back buttons to a keyboard button in the controller settings in game mode. I set the back top left to the 9 key
I followed your tutorial and it worked perfectly for me. If anyone is having trouble launching protontricks as I did at first. Launched it through your apps in the start menu. It won't launch from the discovery store.
I love my Steam Deck, but had to create a Windows partition because there were certain things that I couldn’t do with some of my games using Steam OS, like modding Cyberpunk 2077 for instance. This video just made the Steam Deck that much more essential and streamlined for my use. Thanks for the info and instruction. It’s all very much appreciated.
The thing is. Once you learn the extra step of starting Protontricks and select the specific game you are interested in. You will arrive in a Windows compatibility "sandbox". From that point you can use regex for registry hacks, you can use Windows Explorer to install new 3rd party programs, transfer files and start those 3rd party programs to mod your game just like in Windows. It's basically two extra steps compared to Windows. But I rather take that over dual booting, or even enduring Windows on low powered devices.
For so long, so many TH-cam videos where I realize I'm too old, they talk too fast, I'm mildly dumb, but for the life of me I could never get Vortex to work on my Steam Deck. Thanks to you, I can see that it's not even required! I can just follow your simple "copy this folder to this folder" method and boom. Already I got rid of the opening videos when you start the game. Thank you so much for making it simple for us older folk!
I'm 26 but I'm not computer smart at all I'm stuck at the part where after u download the tweaks file and u move it to the cyberpunk file I get a yellow zipped folder called CET 1.33.0 game patch 2.13 support I have sooo confused
For anyone still not getting the keybind to pop up, I finally found that you need to select a GE Proton for compatibility. This currently works for me after this video with GE 7-50. Others have said GE 53 and GE 7-52 have worked for them.
@@featherdabirb right click cyberpunk, go to properties, go to compatibility and select GE 7-50, you can install this manys ways manually/flatpaks or ProtonUp-Qt
Thanks this you helped a lot also by instead of CET launching in desktop it launched well in gaming mode and I was able to follow most of steps without many issues. So big thanks all around.
You didn't properly install the tweaks in your games directory. If you're not sure how to undo what you've done to the directory, might be best to re-download the game altogether
Whenever I try doing the Protontricks setup, I'm just stuck in an endless loop. It asks me "What would you like to do to this prefix?" - run winecfg - then the Wine Configuration window opens, I already added "Version" to the Override library list, but then it takes me back to Step 2, closing it takes me to step 1, and after closing that, it's as if I cancelled everything, CET doesn't work when I open CP2077, why is this happening??
Same, but i found that if the list now has "Version" included than you're good to close protontricks. Your next move is to try a different Version of PRoton GE to get it to work. You'll get it!
Thank you it work ! I didn’t use keyboard it work with the interface keyboard, for the console I use L4 R4 L5 R5 to press enter, to open the console, to erase and to press arrow up.
couldnt get protontricks to work. im constantly looping. everytime i add a the version. the previous first windows keeps popping up EDIT: got it to work at the last window you have to install a window ddl or component. Install D3dcompiler 47 and the vcrun2022. Then the binding pop up will work
@Pennington892 no worries. Also if your using Red4ext and redscript(need to wait for 2.01 update) Add WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winmm,version=n,b" %command% To launch options
in case you get the script corrupted error message when starting the game use the start command in game properties: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winmm.dll,version=n,b" %command% this fixed it for me cause I was using redscript and red4ext
Just start the game without a keyboard and hit the lower right button (opposite the "steam button" and simultaneously hit left on the dpad. This is a built in default for the esc button and will work as a keybind🎉🎉🎉
Important to note that the USB thumb drive you use if you want to format it later on it will only format to 127 MB of storage no matter what size it is...had to go into my computer bios to fix this thumb stick issue. The Rufus App really fucks up your usb for later use.
Hey I don't think you would respond, but have you tried running redscript or REDx4? I can't find modding a guide anywhere. Street vendors and always equip animation mods require it. Thanks:)
Yo, this video is straight fire, dude! 👏🔥 Honestly, it's such a hidden gem, and I can't believe how few people have seen it. Major props to the creator for putting together such quality content. It's a real shame this isn't getting the views it deserves. Keep up the awesome work, and hopefully, more people will catch on soon! 🙌🤘👊
Wasn't getting CET to prompt binding key (Cus it probably didn't run) Just don't make, or go delete the mentioned folder instructed to make in r6_cache named "modded" Once done, Re-do the protontricks thing, and this time on game boot, CET will trigger successfully. Idk what how or why so can't help regarding that. But my findings are : Redscript is to be avoided, and the mods that need that to run. Red4ext OK | TeakXL OK | ArchiveXL OK | Cybercmd OK - Game Ver.1.62
Can't seem to get this to work. Just trying to get the Survival mod, but one of the required mods seems to break it. I hit "Play" in the Cyberpunk 2077 Launcher (after launching from Steam), and it crashes.
Don't know if this guide is outdated or what, but even after following the guide until the part I had to launch the game in desktop mode, it never came up with that prompt.
@@Hermivore I went through this a few days ago, look up the tutorial from “Grown Up Gaming”. It’s from like 4 months ago, and it shows some extra setup you gotta do with protontricks.
in protontricks after adding the "version" library you also have to "add windows dll or components" then add both "d3dcompiler_47" and the "vcrun_2022" and follow the installation (choosing yes at every window po-up)
A Keyboard is not required for this to work at all, Remember guys its 2023...All I did was Download a Keyboard app and use your smart phone as a keyboard paired via bluetooth and voila!.
Yeah that's what I did, it's much easier than getting a physical keyboard. But I'm having problem not being able to get the CET prompt show up when launching cyberpunk. Any ideas?
hello! I have a problem and I hope someone can help me. I do everything indicated in the process but when I start the game the CET setup does not appear and instead it gives me error 998 and tells me that the setup cannot be opened. If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it, thank you.
hey there sorry to bother you. It says i have some corrupted or missing scrips and it’s forced to close? is this because of the update or something i have done ? I followed everything in the video
I did exactly as you said, however it didn't work at all. Just loaded into a game slightly more laggy than usual... despite all the proton stuff it just fails on the deck
@@mctatertot2258 I'm just using steam, i was interested in modding because i downloaded a gamesave which was intended for use with a couple of mods; for example the UI has an ability that isn't available within the vanilla game so i wanted to download that mod in question
@@TheManFromWhereEastMeetsWest that sounds like conflicting files in some way then. Since we can’t use vortex on the steam deck the load order of mods is super particular. And it makes it even more difficult because if the game stops working you can’t just uninstall and reinstall it, you have to go into the local files and start removing stuff and then verify the files to repair them after from my experience.
Thanks for the guide. I got CET up and running but I'm trying to use the console tab in-game and it's not registering my keyboard (only mouse). The hotkey opens the CET overlay but when I click console and try to type, I get nothing.
Awesome guide, watching it made the process very simple. After installing Proton Tricks, which I assume is the culprit, my controller input quit working? Cyberpunk is only allowing keyboard input now. This is kind of useless on a Steam Deck. Any advice?
Sorry for the late reply. I'm not too sure honestly. I haven't run into this issue with either the steam deck gamepad or an external controller 🤔. I'll do some searching & If I find a solution I'll let ya know.
Protontricks isn't showing cyberpunk. I have it installed through heroic games launcher, and then added as a non steam game, but it still doesn't show up. Is there anything I can even do?
This is actually frustrating. I got it to work once, deleted all my mods and now I. Can’t replicate the process. I just factory reset the deck incase I messed with the wrong files and gonna try it again
I am in the same situation. After enabling Version in protontricks and launching the game, the pop-up window with CET does not appear. Maybe is something releated to 1.62 version
@@natto4now Yeah, I’m sure. Go into desktop mode, open Steam, left click on cyberpunk, click manage, and click browse game folder location - it will take you to the installation folder where you will be dropping mod folders/ files.

Is not working for me i dont know why, i Just dont get the notification for keybinding, please help solved: well what u will have to do if it is happening to u is to change the Proton versión to 6.13

Tell me what mods I should get for Cyberpunk 2077!
