Wow does look bad, thx for the real feedback. Only thing I'm wondering about is the gameplay which may or may not be good, don't plan on buying it at all anytime soon though.

Yeah not everyone's into reading that much, my dad barely does despite being a professional in his field he doesn't read much outside of that, maybe newspaper and internet though that does count of course but not quite the same as enjoying it and making time for it exclusively. The modern popular style of writing being pretty open and plain kinda makes it a bit hard to read some old stuff. Victor Hugo does get pretty fanciful and annoying like the rest of the romantics/encyclopediasts etc I find St Augustine still crystal clear to this day, and he wrote 1600 years ago. Anyways hope you enjoy the book!

Just thought I'd put this up here if anyone wants to get to the huge walled off building near Dennys house and the huge transmitter station you have a clear out ncpd mission at. I've been told if you are using AMM it's the casino/pool, have not installed that I just use CET and a trainer as well as all the other QOL stuff. If you try to walk there you'll have to disable map limits in CET, it'll do the glitchy thing but just keep walking it'll go away. Free fly isn't to my taste but may try it at some point. You'll have to have Cyberengine Tweaks and input these into the console just copy paste. The hill in front of the spa coordinates are: Game.TeleportPlayerToPosition(913.646, 1629.824, 186.607) The top most surface of the building which is solid is: Game.TeleportPlayerToPosition(972.326, 1474.524, 253.520) As a return cet teleport here's the Afterlife: Game.TeleportPlayerToPosition(-1455.068, 1010.975, 17.824) H10 expanded, Limited HUD because after a while no need for it really nice since it has so many settings and options in the mod settings menu, vanilla younger skin.

sure why not

Lol.

Technically it's a toaster lol

And remember a lot of these game makers get money from the hardware manufs especially Nvidia who wants to sell more regardless of need, so these mins and "recommended" are probably like everything else, LOTS of small print. It's the people who race to buy the latest, the apple line types, this is all for. Probably ultra everything settings etc included in the req's, total waste of resources but profitable. If I'm buying a game with 2hrs of gameplay to refund it and it doesn't perform decently or look decent it's going back and that's on the makers to produce. And if it's juiced with 2hrs of filler(cinematics etc) to circumvent that it's going back. And anyone who buys games out of the gate now, or even worse pre-orders or is a "supporter", deserves the hassle for being a dumbster. Of course on my side I would reasonably need a setup that's within the last 5 years of tech or so.

I've had my little Scion xb for a few years, they're small on the outside but man once you get in the headroom and back seat legroom is incredible as is all the front console to windshield room. First gen. Unfortunately when I was looking only automatics on offer, a stick would be amazing on this. I still use the gear limiters on the shifter though, especially the overdrive button for limiting it to 3rd gear max. And really wish a white color was on offer at the time, stuck with the blood red. Thing's ugly to most people but man it has reliability, 30+ highway/26+ city, simple toyota engine, really great light camping vehicle especially solo if you don't bother with the whole get out/setup a tent stuff, fold forward the passenger seat, get a 3" foam from home depot, cut to shape fold down back seats good to go. With what I paid the gas savings you pay up front for with newer and more expensive econo/hybrid cars is easily beat out. No sitting at a charge point in 120deg or -30deg either, seen at least one of those in real life with EVs yukkers.

I was adding a books thread here, anything about books really, which ones you like, are reading etc Links to ones if you like, tons of free ebooks on gutenberg, archive.org and all over the internet etc, reviews, etc etc wide open. I have a handful of physical ones now, used to have a sizable store on scamazon and had a large collection myself but moving and mobility made me discard most of them and just keep to special and rare ones in my physical library. I've had an old 7" Samsung Tab 3 for reading ebooks only for years, thousands of books in epub, pdf, txt etc forms. All on a 32gb microsd. I use Moon+ reader app. I just finished the original Dracula last night from a gutenberg epub and since I also have watched the so called "bram stokers dracula" by the coppolamafia I just wanted to mention the messages they added in that are not in the book at all. Stoker, if still alive, would probably sue them for putting his name on it and it's a blatant fraud to do so. Similar to what is presented as history by paid for experts. First of all Mina is NOT some reincarnated lost love of Dracula as shown in the movie, dracula does NOT get the way he is by the cursing and renouncing as shown in the first 5mins of the movie, it's not clear how he got that way in the book but that he comes from a long line of invaders guerilla warfare and is somehow connected to Atilla the Hun ancestry. So there is no link to fighting Muslim invaders, Mongol invaders and such shown in the movies prologue. I don't think Dracula was ever Christian to begin with nor his ancestors so the crusader stuff is falsehood. There is never any romance sequences in London between Mina and Dracula etc In the book Mina describes Dracula as a criminal with a criminals childlike materialistic mind and slave of habit/pavlovian, as does Van Helsing in his memos. Dracula is never presented as the tragic figure as in the movie who is some good guy underneath. There is no final battle other than the chase to beat Dracula to his stronghold castle in the remaining native coffin of earth from TRANS-sylvania, they catch him and dispatch him. And there is other stuff that Van Helsing does at the castle before then that would prevent Dracula from triumphing anyways. Mina is just bitten by Dracula and is slowly turning into one of his slaves but Van Helsing and the others have ways of delaying it until they dispatch Dracula, freeing the ones that are in process of turning and have not died yet. In the so called "host" cut of the movie(another subtle insult) reincarnated Mina and her love go into the castle and you see the end with some priests absolving or something. I think the release version just showed the final actions by reincarnated Mina to dispatch her love etc. Renfield is NOT a former employee that previously went to Draculas castle for the same business that Jonathan did in the book, the movie puts that in and really it makes some sense to do so otherwise how does Renfield have a specific link to Dracula? Idk maybe I missed that, I admit the long winded expositions got pretty tedious so I did skim a bit. The early part with Jonathan in Draculas castle is the best part of the book and really of the movie but much better in the book, very suspenseful and more complete for obvious reasons. The book is over long and gets a bit too ponderous with expositions all over, similar to frankenstein which I also recently read. Seems to be a problem with romantic era literature what we'd call monster classics now. I liked the movie don't get me wrong and there is a lot of dialogue and other things true to the book but there is almost as much added on stuff to serve other purposes.

Unequipped any of the gorilla arms or cyber arms, after thinking about how gruesome a lot of this is, if you have those arms then your real arms are cutoff. I mean it's no different with the tendons and kiroshis and the rest of it but those might be just add ons to what was there before. Transhumans, trannysteins oof. In photomode it's fugly to see those hands and tinman joints, unequipping the arms cyberware goes back to natural. Other than fist fights there's no benefit to them at least the gorilla ones the others not interested in, what's the point of having katanas/blades, guns etc if you have that in your arms anyways? Some replacer clothes, add on archivexl stuff from a few of my favs at nexus(nazi/bolshevik company btw, bans for anything not bankster-PC approved, really gross stuff is ok though and offensive to the major religion of the west, nominally anyways). The River Rhinoed mod was a bad idea, Rhino is one of the fight opponents an obvious tranny hopped up on roids and way more Testosterone than any normal man could produce and it's really creepy and gross, need to delete that one but anything but a large bulky body doesn't work as a river replacer, it's like the ALT male joytoy replacer, has huge wide beefy shoulders of the joytoy and huge upper body really creepy. See Joan Crawford among the rest. Rhino is the same as the Williams brothers, biomale that needs to keep the advantages of being male at least physically but needs to be passable to the easily programmed and duped as a female, really strange concoction thus the frankenstein analogy. I also have the River Romance Enhanced mod, similar to the Judy/Panam ones just adds showering, alternate hangout locations, hug/kiss prompt have not seen anything else to it. FONC female 2k complexion for smoother skin complexion. I use #4 but he has upscaled for 1-5.

Was watching the original Twilight Zone, it's hit or miss sometimes really interesting sometimes corny stuff.

Coming back to this on my cp77 modding binge lately the game seems to run better with higher vram usage and takes up more than 8gb of regular ram in high traffic areas. I have hundreds of mods making the game much more interesting and pleasing to the eye for me to play as well as much better QOL than cpdr is capable of. Kind of shocking how lazy the coding was after a game like GTAV came out in 2013 wow they really focused on marketing and promotion/celebs more than gamer friendly. The amazing to me graphics are one thing they did well, but it's just not near what TW3 is, the source material must have been a lot thinner. CP77 uses almost my whole 6gb of vram and I turn down or off the CPU intensive stuff like crowd density and the volumetric stuff. As I've said I'm at 1080p dlss performance using 2412 atm. Have not tried dsr 2k so far that would certainly bump up gpu usage from current 40-60% , the CPU varies from 50-85% most of the time. Temps are the same since it's an intel, always 85c or so during most intensive stuff but at least 75c, gpu follows along since it's on the same pcb even with 40% usage. I'm using some 2k upscaled character face textures and some principal NPC character face textures so that adds to the vram I assume. I'm good with the gaming perf of this as I said before it's not 2k/4k 60 gaming but 1k/60 fine enough and even with latest games if I make adjustments that are fine with me it can get close to that or I lock it at 60. With cp77 I'm usually 45-60 with the drops down to 30s in some places seems to be that way with everyone though. Max fps is set to 60 so I don't get unnecessary spikes in deserts/industrial areas/pacifica. Totally recommend disabling vsync for smoothness of play, not necessary unless your machine is not up to your settings.

Oh yeah it's just a binging thing like GTAV modding was, fun game but the limit of real game-extending mods is almost here. If I was in the right place go back to my tamiya etc model making or painting but just not there. I installed the "make a living courier" mod and it works fine. You go to any drop point OR call on the phone Night Express and take jobs. Point to point in a certain amount of time, example of the first one I did, and failed, was somewhere in Japantown to Stylishly on the ocean waterfront of the downtown area. The traffic and NPCs can really be a huge pain when you're in a hurry as can the handling of vehicles, it's better than the few driving mission parts where they try to make it a pain. Only real bug is an interference with drop point mission items, you drop the mission item and then have to immediately cancel the delivery if you don't want to do it. The buttons are the same so no choice but who cares really, minor thing. I only did a couple so there could be other bugs but not so far. Installed Panam/Judy romance enhanced and they do a bit more at their locations have not noticed more than that but maybe it plays out more over time. Judy bugged back to her underpants clothes instead of my gun harness only replacer and also her original hair instead of the joi hair style I had replaced with. I've actually had more detailed texts and such with Panam with this installed than Judy and Panam still in her gun harness only outfit lol Some AlvarixPT outfits really cool stuff. I only use add ons, too many vanilla clothes replacers/swaps to do more. I finally did get a correct replacer for that NPC transparent red dress, the one I had before still had the cuffs showing from what it replaced when you look down, really crappy.

Hm panam romance for femvs definitely working without having to input a framework command, never thought of a flying tank as a love nest though kinda weird. The Lore Friendly ad replacers guy, xlipxtream, came out with some really nice vending machine reskins some of the highest quality I've seen so I put one of the variants in the load order to have a few in there really nice. Now a mix of cybergirls, bladerunner 2077, akirose, edgerunners and other standalone VM reskins. Almost all other adverts non-vanilla but as I said Mr Whitey billboards and Abydos still no replacers. Apurturehead came out with a really cool Yaiba customization pack great stuff. He also has a great pulsar model mod and custom silencer. NC fashion atelier stuff, Nola Dreamer clothes stuff, Rogue young face no cyberware(nude option for those inclined) undecided about Rogues biogender remember they've been hiding this for decades and centuries when it comes to royalty and top elite once they invaded/conquered from their ghetto pirate hideouts. Whole countries are now such. If a non-member stole 8billion dollars they'd disappear but never happens with certain mafioso does it. Steal billions pay offs, bribes etc pay someone 1mil/5mil to sit in "jail" that's better living than any normal people have sheesh all the tricks, 3 card monty with 3 year olds lol ezbeef. Usually when you see ONE ant or bedbug etc you've got a ton more disguised or out of sight sorry to say. Remember a scanned face can be paired with any body really, I think reeves alternate "body" is more accurate to shis real life one. CPDR games all over with this no exceptions.

Eh I forgot to go to that set last night but I was doing badlands stuff with 2412 in there, still a bit of shimmering but not too bad, eh.

There's just team purple sorry for the red/blue koolaide drinkers, kabbalistic methods are used for a reason so people can be herded into their pens lol

yeah sorry why I mentioned algebra to 3rd graders not done for a reason, good luck there.

That's right in the story after one of the races she mentions it, and her truck has a tranny flag on the back. "her" gait is male, wrong finger ratio, etc etc more tricks than you can imagine in this cult, only now pushing it into public at the lower levels. Didn't you notice many npcs have the opposite clothes and features? I guess we've all been conditioned through hollywood etc for over 100 years. I think Deutsch Videos/German videos 7th channel on yt/bitchute can help, Apocalypse Watchman by Mr E on bitchute, Simon1978 bitchute etc

lol I have the clothes and face/body replacers for claire, Claire alternates, looks way better. I figure you going to be a tranny look good like hollywood unlike pols.

Looks like the Panam romance for femvs is working just dragndrop the archive file in there, interesting seeing the different aspects locked out if you only played as one biogender. I finished the 8ug8bear romance story part anyways, well there is a nice payoff if you get my drift and then she stays in the apartment you saved her in for hanging out with and booty calls lol I have not got to river romance part but I have an enhanced mod so he doesn't just hang out on the steps etc after it's all done. There are some replacer models for river which I've got the Rhino one in there works fine, yuk though. May stick in a different one.

Those were probably the first mods available besides the modding frameworks and QOL/perf fixes. To be able to see adult stuff on nexus you have to enable it in your account settings. The game already has a lot of nudity anyways though. The replacer clothes I have for Panam, Judy and Misty are gun harness only lol There's one called npcs gone wild that removes some npc clothing items. I saw one that makes all npcs nude. I like the fashion of the world though at least those of the tygers, corporates and a mix of the rest of it. There is trans focused stuff like FTM mastectomy scars and such, and other things. Resculpted bodies are a big deal like large or smaller things etc High heels feet etc but then you need adjusted clothes/shoes for that body. Don't see the need for more than vanilla body options though, at least we got the correct finger ratio for the natural sexes, of course claires is wrong etc.

I probably should have started a cp77 modding thread of my own to not take this over like I am currently lol I got a few major NPC character hair/clothes/face swaps like Claire, Judy, Panam, Misty, River, the dumpy clothes they wear and such gets old. Claire needed to work on "her" male walking gait, one of the easiest ways to tell among many others, runway models have it down pat. Only so much skeletal work they can do at this point. So anyways now I want to see these unavoidable npcs look way better. More edgy cyberpunky and appealing. There is also a joytoy swap which is nice if you are restricted from romancing a character but my panam swap for the male joytoy in jigjig/dark matter has missing legs probably due to the new clothes I had for the panam character, switched to ALT for all male joytoys should be fine now. I got a few of wingdeers hair styles to replace the vanilla options. Panam romance option for femvs(not sure if it needs to be enabled in a framework or not give it a try just dragndrop .archive file), river romance enhanced, the bugbear romance working fine. HUD color desaturation. A compass but it's not just a nsew it's numbers with N being zero, not my favorite there is currently no simple NSEW compass mod, yet another simple thing CPDR missed. On the other cp77 mods site: www.cyberpunk2077mod.com, I noticed that the bladerunner guy, now banned on nexus for some reason, had a lot of individual replacers that he delisted from nexus don't know why. Grabbed a bunch of them from there, work fine. A lot of it is game version neutral. Vending machines, murals, some signs, stickers, posters etc I kept in all my other replacers since they pretty much replace all ads besides Abydos and Mr Whitey billboards and it's a nice unique mix to my taste. I think he just combined all of them into that one file I mentioned above, proxima.

Threw in what v1.5 had default 2.3.4 and the flickering decreased dramatically at the desert film set in the small weeds of the main area, mind you this is all very minor stuff but I just noticed it a lot with 251 in there. I put in 2.4.12 again which I had for a long time, go back to film set and see.

I hear you but I'd just say those you mentioned are not disinterested parties so be careful. Most of what I mentioned has already been accomplished in many places for a long time. Most "real" history is what hollywood has programmed in from a certain POV for over 100 years now and it does not stop at hollywood.
