This page describes Red Hot Tools's Hot Reload mechanism.

How it works

Although there is a CET overlay, Hot Reload is fully integrated with Wolvenkit and Visual Studio Code — you don't have to do anything except pushing the right button.

The theory

As you know, Cyberpunk 2077 loads its mods from archive/pc/mod. While you run around in Night City, it will keep them open and use the files inside as it needs them.

By placing .archives inside the hot folder, you put them under the control of RHT, which will add them to the game's internal pool of never-changing content:

But the folder is always empty!

That's because RHT moves the file into mods and splices them into the game's resource pool.

But my changes don't show up!

Red Hot Tools invalidates the game's resources and loads your changes, but things that are already spawned won't be affected. Here is how you can trigger change detection:

• Loading a save (always works)

• Spawning a new copy of your item via CET and equipping that (usually works)

• Despawning and respawning the NPC or world entity you're modifying (usually works)

• Respawn the UI widget (usually works)

• Unequipping and re-equipping your item (sometimes works)

Integrations

Wolvenkit

Simply push the "Hot Reload" button in your toolbar:

Visual Studio Code

You can download the RHT plugin red-hot-vscode-x.x.x.vsix from github:

Install the extension via Extension Manager's ... menu (Install from VSIX...) and restart VScode. Now you can see the following actions:

The CET overlay

Archives

Here, you can manually trigger a reload of archive extensions (read: .xl files). You only have to do this if you edit an .xl file in archive/pc/mods.

Scripts

Here, you can manually trigger a reload.

You can do this via by running "Hot Reload Scripts" from Visual Studio Code

Tweaks

Here, you can manually trigger a reload.

You can do this via by running "Hot Reload Scripts" from Visual Studio Code
