Guts(Rebecca's Shotgun) new appearance.

[Rafaelbw]

I absolutely love that weapon, but the "skin" is a bummer for me. So my idea was a new skin for it. 

I tried my hand at WolvenKit but couldn't figure it out how to do it, so I ask for someone who knows how and feel up for it.

Ot at least talk me through the process so I can try doing on my own. I'll share the credits ofc

Hello.

I've figured it out how to do it. I will make a mod that has every available Guts (Carnage base model) skin and upload it to Nexus Mods. I will also make a mini-guide on how you can do it with other weapons in the future.

Note: This will mainly be skins that are made for the Carnage shotgun variant, applied to Guts. I'm not sure what will happen if you apply a different variant shotgun skin to it without changing other things.

The skins are random when you spawn, loot or buy a weapon. Example, the Pimp version I know has 3 different skins on it. I'm not sure how many skins exist.

Step-by-step how to do this yourself:

1: Download this mod list: https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/521

2: Open Tweak Browser in WolvenKit.

3: Use the document from step 1 to find a weapon, example Guts (items.preset_carnage_edgerunners).

4: Type in the Tweak Browser of WK, "items.preset_carnage" and you'll find Guts.

5: Right click one version, like the Edgerunners, and "add TweakXL Override". That should add the file on left side of WK.

6: Open the file called "Items.Preset_Carnage_Edgerunners.yaml" and search for "visualTags".

7: Below "visualTags" is the item variant it will appear as. Example, on Guts it will say:

visualTags:
    - Edgerunners_Carnage

So if we change "Edgerunners_Carnage" to "Neon" it will spawn Guts with Neon skin variants. I got the Neon variant from using the document on step 1 and searching for "Carnage". Since Carnage is the non-iconic weapon, it has more than 1 skin variant. I used the weapon ID from that list to search for it in WolvenKit and like Guts, find the VisualTag for that item, which in this case is "Neon".

 

Hopefully that makes sense! Otherwise, I can scrabble together a visual guide.

You are the man!

I'll try my hand on another weapon I also want to change the skin this weekend, and we'll see how it goes. But your guide seems pretty straightforward.

 

Thank you so much.

It was my pleasure.
