This guide will show you how to download and install the Wolvenkit Blender IO Suite from github source.
Unless you either know what you're doing or have been told by someone in the discord support channel to install the current development version, you should stick to the release version.
Step 1: Download from github
Head to the Wolvenkit Blender IO suite's github repository
Click the green
Code
buttonClick "
Download ZIP
" at the bottom
You should have downloaded a file called
Cyberpunk-Blender-add-on-main.zip
.
Step 2: Finding the install location
2.1: Find the correct install path
Open the Blender Preferences (Toolbar:
Edit
->Preferences
) and select theAddOns
tabSearch for
cyberpunk
See the current install path under
File
. It should be something like this:
Everything before the
__init__.py
is the path to the current install.
2.2: Delete the old install
Navigate your Windows Explorer to the path you found in 2.3 (Shortcut:
Windows+R
, type%APPDATA%
, confirm, then browse from there)Delete the whole
i_scene_cp77_gltf
folder.Leave the explorer window open, you need it for Step 3!
Step 3: Extract the download
Open

that you downloaded in step 1.Find the folder named
i_scene_cp77_gltf
. This is the blender add-on:

Step 3: Restart Blender
After restarting Blender, you now have the very latest version of the plugin. If you want anything more recent, you have to become a developer yourself.
Please remember to report any bugs you find — either in the discord support channel, or by opening an issue on github (you need an account for this).
