I tried to mod Cyberpunk 2077 and it was not a smooth experience. I first tried using Vortex in Bottles but it wouldn’t run. I then tried to use ProtonUp-QT but couldn’t figure out exactly what to do. I discovered that there’s a new NNM AppImage that’s early in development that works with Cyberpunk.
I’ll have to try again in the future and figure out how ProtonUp-QT, ProtonTricks, Steam Tinker Launcher, etc.

I modded Cyberpunk 2078 and jumped straight to the NNM app, no issues. Running quite a few mods.
Ditto (but 2077 instead, haha). I’ve had no issues, except I wish it’d be possible to export the mod collection and reimport on a different device - eg going from desktop to Steam Deck and vice versa, which I’ve had to do manually.
Whoops! Didn’t notice that typo. I wouldn’t even dream of subjecting my steam deck to the same 900 mods as my PC.
Personally I just start a windows vm, mount the dieectory to it and mod from there
That’s probably the way to go. I’ve tried using .dll-based mods with Proton/Winetricks/etc to little success so having a VM is smart if you’re able.
What is windows?
Steamtinkerlauncher is the way to do it, you are on the right track!
Vortex absolutely works in Bottles, I use it myself to install and update the Welcome to Night City collection.
try the following guide and adapt it to Bottles. if you’re using flatpaks, you’re likely facing the permissions issues that are mentioned in the guide.

I did the one for skills and maybe another one on my steamdeck. It was just dropping a file into a folder. Finding the folder though. ugh. that was the annoying part.
What is cyberpunk?
