Cheat Sheet: Body

Which body parts are where?

On this page, you can find information how the Cyberpunk player body is set up, along with its file paths.

You can find the list of skin tones, hair and facial expressions under Cheat Sheet: Head

There is no dedicated guide as for how to create body mods yet, but the process is roughly the same as for creating A new head for V.

While you can use this information to show/hide parts of the player body via chunkmasks, you might consider using ArchiveXL tags instead.

Many of the mesh files are pulled in via morphtargets. If you want to create a body mod, you need to edit both.

Seamfix meshes

These meshes cover up seams at arms and shoulders, where the mesh edges might show gaps.

Head

The player base heads (and scars, tattoos, cyberware) are defined in .app files in the folder base\characters\head\player_base_heads\appearances\head

For a guide on how to actually use those things, check the NPV guide.

Arms

The player base body does not come with arms attached — this makes it easier to switch out the different kinds of cyberarms.

Arms are using different meshes for the first person perspective. You can usually find them near the regular meshes in a subfolder with the name fpp.

You can look up the component names and their properties in the .ent files per body gender in these folders:
