Model swapper
Model swapper, back with the mod’s original purpose and idea. Swap out one character model with the other in order to add to the replayability of the game – or simply for fun.
As you probably know by now – the previous version of this mod was removed (not by CDPR nor Mods, but by me – so do not blame either of them for the removal of the entire mod) after CDPR approached me and nicely asked to remove only a part of the original mod. The reason was that there was one questionable part of it which included models that resemble real life people (specifically, the model of Johnny Silverhand), which should have been avoided in the first place – and my mistake was listening to the requests and including some model swaps that were not supposed to be in the mod originally.
Either way, I decided to take down the older version of the mod as a whole in order to prevent possible further misuse, especially as I had a full written out guide on how to swap out any of the two in-game characters, and I had no real way of preventing people from swapping out characters that are not meant to be swapped out. So at the time, it seemed as a best idea to remove it as a whole until I get more details from the CDPR – when the media started blowing up with articles while not having a lot of info on what was going on, nor what the mod has been to begin with.
Either way, as everything has been talked out since, I am re-uploading my mod which includes fully swapping out Panam and Judy, random swaps between Fingers, Dex, Sasquatch, Smasher, T-bug, 8ug8ear, Delamain, basilisk, and more to come.
Although, if you are planning to use the modded files of this mod as an example to swap out other characters, I am leaving this message, as suggested by CDPR:
“Please remember that as you are using and creating content with this mod, you should always follow the rules specified in Cyberpunk 2077 License Agreement and Fan Content Guidelines of CD PROJEKT RED. One of the most important of those rules is that user-generated content cannot be harmful towards others. Considering that this mod could allow you to swap models of real people, please refrain from using them in any situation that might be found offensive, unless you have an explicit permission from a particular person.”
So please abide to that and do not create any questionable content by using this mod’s files as an example. Also, as a way to further prevent it from happening, I will not be rewriting a guide on how to do model swaps manually – if you want some of them to happen and have no will to learn it yourself, please be nice and wait until I have enough time to swap them out, although, I will ignore any questionable requests.
WHAT?
A simple mod that swaps out different character models in place of the original ones. In other words, swap Dex with a bulky Fingers character or something along those lines in order to have a good laugh while playing the game, or to have a new mutant boss fight. As the modding gets better – we may, some day, even have Thomas in an epic Smasher boss fight (naturally, modded so that it’s way harder to beat)!
