Install on Steam Deck: Cyber Engine Tweaks Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty with Vortex Mod Manager

[Music] hello everybody Welcome to the channel today let's talk about Vortex mod manager so here I recently did a video to install Vortex mod manager on my steam deck and this helps you manage your mods install and install enable disable it's really useful but you need to know how to set it up because you need to set up Vortex smart manager with your game and in order for it to work so let's do a deep dive if you haven't installed Vortex mod manager and you would like to I have a video on this and I'll leave a link in the description and I also put a card up shortcut right now in the video so you can click the top right corner okay so I assume that you already installed Vortex mod manager on your steam deck a viewer told me that he couldn't get um cyberpunk 2077 he wanted to install the Cyber engine tweaks so let's do a demonstration for that so once you open Vortex mod manager go into games and you see I don't have cyberpunk linked up so I can't manage the game right now so you need to search for it okay so cyberpunk and then click manage so if it's the first time you don't have the extension so you need to click download and it will automatically download the extension and install and then Vortex will restart itself yeah it's used for the first time okay so it couldn't find the game folder manual uh automatically so we need to do it manually so continue and you'll find that you'll have difficulty um locating your game on Steam deck because normally the game if it's on Steam it's normally located here so it's normally located in home and then um and then dot steam it's a hidden folder and you can't get to the hidden folder so let's say you go here home you can't find the dot Steam folder here or even in deck you can't normally I'll type it here dot theme and it will work but it doesn't work for vortex so what's my work around this is what I do so I go to proton tricks so make sure you have proton tricks installed if you don't go into your discover store here and then type proton and you should be able to see this the wine glass you download this all right so normally I open my proton tricks and then I'll look for my Vortex mod manager the non-steam so it's located here 28892 okay so I'm going to go to home dot steam Steam steam apps compact data and then 28892 this one this is the folder for my Vortex this is the prefix folder for my Vortex so Drive C all right then I'm going to what I'm going to do most of your games actually stored here in your steam apps so I'm going to open a new tab here okay so this is my steam apps folder so if it's a non-stem game it's normally located inside here compact data see all these folders these are non-steam games if it's a steam game it's normally installed here in common so you can see I've got my standardized these are the steam game so so this fold is very useful so I'm going to actually move this steam apps game uh not in the game steamaps folder moving to the drive C of my vortex and I'm not going to move I'm going to use the link so it's just the link I don't actually move those files over here it's a link so now back in vortex oh my game is not linked okay so I could probably search for it again so cyberpunk manage and it can't find the game folder automatically so we're going to do it manually so now since I've linked it I go to my computer C drive as you can see I've got a steam apps here so it's linked okay so then compact data and I'm going to locate my cyberpunk so cyberpunk default the folder name is actually three two one one two so here three two one one two this one this is my cyberpunk directory the server Punk and then I'm going to open all right let's go try to link it okay Swiss game mode okay done so a little bit to take a look let me take a look at the folder so compact data three two one one two three packs Drive C okay it automatically did that that's weird let me see the mods foreign because I think that's because I did it before this is normally what would happen when you link it it says mods can't be deployed and you take a look it's because it can't access that folder that we just did so next you'll see that it's the problem is there's no harm link deployment and the solution is go to settings and you have to create a stage a mod staging folder in the same drive as the game all right so what I did was I go inside here to my cyberpunk location so Drive C you see cyberpunk here I'm going to add I'm going to create a new folder I'm just going to call it mod staging all right so it's in it's in the same drive it's on the same Drive c as my cyberpunk I can't you can't install it like you can create the folder inside your game folder you do it on the same drive that's okay and then I'm just going to locate it okay so Drive C steam apps compact data um three two one one two prefix Drive C then I'm going to select mod staging this is the folder okay and then I'm going to click apply all right so that helps it do its thing all right so that's what you need to do go into settings and then go to mods and you change the mod staging folder you have to create it yourself into the same directory as your game folder all right so make sure this is important okay so now that's done we should be able to manage our game now we don't have any issues so go to downloads actually I normally go to here game and then I'm going to open the Nexus page so in the Nexus mod page I'm going to most endorse I'm going to find this cyber engine Twix this is the mod that we want to install so I'm going to copy this link copy and then here in downloads I'm going to add the DRL sorry the URL okay then download should open inside the vortex mod manager and go to files and then I'm going to click mod manager download slow download now okay so cancel so you can see here it's automatically downloading it's downloading in your Vortex mod manager so patch 2.0 support and then we go to mods it should once it's finished downloading it's going to install automatically here okay and normally people would think it's it's finished you've already like installed it but because this mod for this game it requires dependencies Vortex mod managing can't do it for you it probably could do it for you on Windows but on Steam back it can't because like Steam OS is actually a Linux so this is really based on windows so what you need to do okay let me test out the game first so let's say it's done let's say we think it's done let's run the game so cyberpunk let's run the game I think I should stop the vortex mod manager okay let's stop it let's start it so I'm running cyberpunk right now let's see if it works so it's not working I know it's not working it's because if you install um cyber engine tweaks the first thing when you upload the game it pops up and asks you to bind a key to toggle on the overlay and which I didn't get right so it's not working because we need to install dependencies and we also need to do a dll override all right let's see let's get into the main screen okay see there nothing happens see I've got Phantom Liberty installed okay so let's just quit the game so I know how to fix this we need to use Photon tricks so that program that you installed if you didn't already and then go into non-steam game cyberpunk so I'm going to double click it and there's a few things we need to do wait for it so once you double click it it feels like nothing's happening but it's working on the background don't panic okay so select a default wine prefix okay and then first thing we need to do run Wine config okay because uh we need to go into this screen one configuration go to libraries and then new override for Library go down to version there's a something called version let me find that here version or you could just type it version then add so we added a dll override first by default it doesn't know how to load this and this is the um a dll for the for the mod sub engine tweaks so apply okay and then we also need to install the dependencies so install a Windows dll or component you need to take d3d compiler 47 and you also need VC run the VC run I think it was 2019 2019. okay I can't remember I installed it a long time ago it should be it's either 2019 or 2022 I think it's 2019. it worked so just wait for us so once you've done this it also looks like it's nothing's happening yeah just don't panic just wait for stuff to work should pop out any second yep like this just click ok looks like it's messed up but no it's working okay you're getting all these like signs that it's like stop okay but it's actually working so install okay you need to install it twice one for x86 and one for x64 so x64 one now okay close that's done feels like it's done okay no yeah normally you go back to this screen that's when you know it's done and then you could check if it's installed by going to install a Windows dll or component again you can go into it again and then you can see it's ticked it's checked so scroll down yeah visual C plus plus yeah it's checked all right so now we know it's installed we can run the game again and it should work so let's run the game again okay see here CET first time setup that means we've installed cyber engine tweaks so you select the key so I'm going to bind a key so now I can toggle this overlay to use cheats or mods I can like toggle on or off by pressing the key you can assign any key you want all right so I'm going to alternate F4 get out of it now I'm going to check if Vortex manager really works I'm going to disable the mod okay and Run the game again so let's open Vortex mod manager we don't have to uninstall the mod we just disable it and then if we want to enable we can enable it again so that's why it's so useful because if you don't have a mod manager you're installing mods you're transferring files to a game folder and then when you want to delete it or not use it you'd probably have to delete the files for this we can just go to mods and then I'm going to click here disable okay and quit and then I'm going to run the game again and then I'm going to try to press the toggle button to see if it works if it doesn't it means mod manager is actually really managing the mod yeah see here I'm pressing the button and it's not toggling not toggling okay let me try to turn it back on because it's so simple to do let's try to turn it back now so yeah Vortex is really useful but you really need to know how to manage it like connect the game and make sure that it's working once you've set it all up then like installing mods is really easy but yeah the first thing you need to do is you need to set it all up perfectly okay so now I'm enabling it and then I'm going to run the game one more time okay just to make sure just to double check okay come on yeah see now it's enabled yeah so it's very easy to use once you know how to set it all up so I hope this video helped you out it's a deep dive uh if you install Vortex mod manager through my other video so this is a follow-up to let you know how to set it all up and I hope this video helped you out if it did please leave a like And subscribe and I'll see you guys in the next one later
