Cyberpunk 2077 — from the creators of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Enter the world of Cyberpunk 2077 — a storydriven, open world RPG of the dark future from CD PROJEKT RED, creators of The Witcher series of games.

First of all, I should say that Cyberpunk's REDmod is very similar to TW3's MODkit, rather than TW2's REDkit. So it's basically a command line tool. You call it from cmd and you use commands to extract archive files and other things. You can download REDmod as a free DLC on GOG, Steam, and EGS (So you must own the game in one of those marketplaces before downloading the modding tool)
If you're not good at working with command line tools and cmd, then use the WolvenKit integration. WolvenKit has an amazing Environment. It might be confusing at the start but you'll get used to it.
Apart from the ability to extract archive files, you can also edit scripts (the language is very similar to TW3 and TW2's, WitcherScript).
You can also download a blender plugin from the game's website, allowing you to edit animations.
About the tutorials, CDPR has created a thread here in the forums where they post modding tutorials. There's also a PDF which explains audio modding and other stuff in the same section where you download the blender plugin.
I should tell you that you can't create new large storylines/quests with this tool.
I hope I helped and happy modding!

I recommend using Wolvenkit.

With the source code of their internal engine in hand, the developers could make a full-fledged game editor for modders. It's a strange decision to support the creation of mods, but not to make a full-fledged editor. As a level designer I'd really like a full-fledged level editor, but so far just a wet dream)
Some of the middle-ware they use won't let them to release a level editor for modders. They wanted to create another REDkit for TW3 and even promised the modding tools, however they couldn't do it for the reason I mentioned.
Perhaps you should use the capabilities of Blender and give the opportunity to work with meshes and colliders. The same navigation grid can be expressed as a mesh in blender itself, and then with the help of a tool from the developers to convert it into a game Asset, which is understood by the engine. You can also implement a system of flags for objects and collisions.
First of all, they didn't promise ANYTHING, they just said that together with the developers of WolvenKit, they are working on a modding tool. What did you expect from them?
That's an interesting Idea, it's also very similar to the way CDPR designed the levels for TW1, they couldn't do it in Aurora level editor so they did it in 3dsmax and then imported the levels as a single mesh into the engine.
Sorry for late response, I'm not that active here in the forums.

They never made a statement on a modding tool kit. What Yigsoft was hired for is work on improving official mod support. This is straight from the CP2077 modding Discord:
Nothing about a modding toolkit, just modding support in general.
This is straight from Vatier, here:
Which is as official as it gets in this case. Just official modding tools.
People, like yourself, just extrapolated that to mean "AWESOME TOOL KIT INCOMING!!!" without any indication of such.
REDmod certainly fulfills what they actually promised. That's not to say I'm not disappointed in REDmod myself, I am as I was hoping for more, but as far as fulfilling what they said they would, it does. Furthermore, there is no indication that this is it. That nothing else is coming. There is also no indication that there is more coming. We just don't know.
One could assume they would drop other official modding tools after the release of the one and only DLC PL. After that no more updates, save from a few hotfixes and patches, then we have a good few years to wait till the sequel. I don't see this game dying anytime soon, and not with the amount of quality mods the talented community give us. But then again, they might not release any official modding tools, I'm sure the modders will though.
If you cannot be respectful towards other people, you are better off not posting at all. Posts deleted.
