{% hint style="warning" %}
It is highly recommended to fully read the official description pages of the following Texture Frameworks and the respective Body Mods on Nexus Mods - as further information can be found and also to keep track of any updates.
{% endhint %}

## **Why is there a need for Texture Frameworks?**

Since CDPR utilizes the same texture paths and texture files for V and NPCs, Texture Frameworks are used to give V separate texture files from NPCs, allowing you to edit V’s skin or tattoos without your edit affecting for example, Judy, River, or crowd NPCs.

### The Original Texture Layouts and Paths for V

For clarity's sake, below is also documented V's original/vanilla texture layouts and paths, that are shared with NPCs. In addition to what was stated earlier, the options to create desired looks is very limited using this vanilla way.

#### Texture Layouts

The original texture uv Layouts CDPR utilizes for Player V:

## Which Texture Frameworks exist?

### [**Unique Arms**](https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/2644)

The earliest initial texture framework by [Halvkyrie](https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Halvkyrie/about-me?gameId=3333) for Player Female V. This mod makes the player arms use separate textures, allowing for different custom tattoos on each arm without the former limitation of mirroring.

#### Texture Layouts

Unique Arms utilizes the following texture uv Layouts for Arms:

### [The Unique V Texture Framework](https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/3783?tab=description)

Also known as "UV" or "KS-UV" was created by [Zosoab70](https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/zosoab70/about-me) and [AllKnowingLion](https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/AllKnowingLion/about-me), and released by their team account, "[KnowSo](https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/KnowSo/about-me?gameId=3333)".\
\
The UV Framework was the first full body and arm texture framework. The base version is designed for players to be able to make their character as unique as they'd like while also allowing for modders to easily create their textures for the body and arms from a single file instead of having to use multiple. Following the 4.1 update, however, modders will have the option to utilize alternate layouts for the arms that are formatted more closely to the vanilla structuring.

#### Texture Paths

The texture files for UV are separated by body gender. UV Texture Framework resources can be found on nexus - [Miscellaneous files Section](https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/3783?tab=files).

{% hint style="info" %}
A detailed "how to" guide can be found in the UV Texture Framework resources files, along with .PNG files for the uv layouts for the body and arms. For further questions, troubleshooting, and community-sourced resources go to the [KS Discord](https://discord.gg/knowso) server.

### [V Texture Kit](https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/7054)

Also known as "VTK" created by [xBaebsae](https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/xBaebsae/about-me?gameId=3333), is a framework that focuses on giving HD Skin textures and Tattoo textures for the body, feet, arms and head for Player V. It integrates Halvkyrie's Unique Arms paths, and its structure expands for more customizability.

### What's the difference?

Primarily, the basic difference is the [UV layout](https://wiki.redmodding.org/cyberpunk-2077-modding/for-mod-creators-theory/materials/uv-mapping-texturing-a-3d-object) of the body/arm textures between the base version of the UV Framework, and VTK. Beyond that other features include:

<table><thead><tr><th width="383">UV Framework (Base Vers</th><th>VTK</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Separate download for framework files / from body mods</td><td>Framework is open source and can be included within the Body Mod. (Current VTK Bodies have the framework built-in the body mod archives)</td></tr><tr><td>Cyberarms built in to base version</td><td>In VTK 3.0. Cyberarms are included into the body mods archives</td></tr><tr><td>Arms and body share textures in base version</td><td>FemV Arms on different texture layout same as original vanilla arms; MascV Arms on different texture layout same as original vanilla arm, with the difference that the right arm UV is the same as the left arm UV.</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>Alternate Texture layout for foot submeshes for VTK FemV; At the moment, VTK Male V still is using the original Feet Layout.</td></tr><tr><td>Secondary file for split arm textures, tattoo overlays, and normals maps (4.1+)</td><td><p>Supports mods made for<a href="https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/2644"> Unique Arms</a> by <a href="https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Halvkyrie/about-me?gameId=3333">Halvkyrie</a></p><p><em>(Unique Arms is not required)</em></p></td></tr><tr><td>4k textures <em>(Cyberpink - Kwek x Fireapple)</em> built in to base framework for body and arms:<br>diffuse (d), normals (n), detail normals (nd), roughness (rm), tintcolormask; Upscaled micro-detailing for body, arms, and head</td><td>Full set of HD textures for body, arms, and head included: diffuse (d), normals (n), detail normals (nd), roughness (rm), tintcolormask (tc), and HD microdetails</td></tr><tr><td><br>Optional file for 8k body+arm texture <em>(Bedellia x Ava Skin)</em><br></td><td>Various options available for VTK FemV and VTK Male V</td></tr><tr><td>Separate body overlays and Emissive (glow) overlay for each body gender</td><td>Separate body overlays and Emissive (glow) overlay for each body gender; Overlays for the right arm and left arm can be mix and matched with other overlays mods</td></tr><tr><td>Unique Skintone .mi (Material instance) files</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Unique Eyebrows</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Universal body mod support (4.0+)</td><td></td></tr></tbody></table>
