Hi! That sounds like an awesome idea – I’m so freaking stoked for CD Projekt Red’s upcoming Cyberpunk game – it looks amazing so far.

Anyways, back on topic! XD

Neon Lights

Check out the neon / neon lighting / lighting tags at @scifits3ccblog – there’s a few more neon lights at TSR, too.

I made a Cyberpunk tag​ too, but so far it’s a lot of CAS CC & gameplay til I update the tags – I usually divvy everything up into smaller categories like Grunge, Industrial, Dystopian/Apocalyptic, etc., so check those, too, since they all fall under cyberpunk aesthetics.

Hands down though, IMO some of the three best resources for neon lighting came straight from EA, crazy enough, not gonna lie.

Showtime especially had a lot of amazing Cyberpunk and Steampunk objects, stage props & simport rewards (get the mod to unlock them all here).

Into the Future, University Life, and Showtime have a lot of glowing neon lights & fixtures, and signs. (MsPoodle1 made the UNI EP signs recolorable.)

I might be wrong, but I don’t think anyone’s made the neon lights from ITF & UNI base game compatible – so I suspect the glowing effects are limited to the EPs? IDEK. Check here, just in case.

Gobo Lights

Also, gobo lights are included in Late Night and Showtime – I hope you’re sensing a theme here; any SciFi player would REALLY benefit from getting Showtime. The Katy Perry simport crap was effing ridiculous, but the rest of the EP is actually pretty cool.

(This GTA inspired lot at MTS uses a lot of LN, UNI, & SHT content.)

Lastly, another hidden gem is Roaring Heights, which comes with a lot of neon lights. You can make all kinds of creative designs with them.

Go-Go Stage

As for go-go dancer stages, if your game is fully patched you should have a Platform foundation in Build Mode. It’s maybe 1/3 as high as the regular foundations, and works excellently for stages (I forget which patch it came with).

Anyways, this amazing set was made by kiolometro at TSR to add glowing floor lights as rugs, which are perfect for SciFi lots. 

So, that’s about all I can think of off the top of my head.

MsPoodle1 has an incredible set with ANIMATED FANS asdffghklk! here:

Cyclonesue has a terrific alternative here:

Ah apologies, I was thinking of a different company, ACRONYM.

As far as I know, we don’t have any kind of a comprehensive guide, at least not a very large one. :/ There’s the Defiance Wiki with general information about the cultures and characters, and there’s the Learn Votan Wiki, which updates vocabulary and grammar rules as its creators come across them.

In terms of learning the languages or specific questions about naming or other language-based conventions like that, I haven’t see one anywhere. There are a few facts we have been told, such as that the intended idea for Indogene names is that they’re actually ridiculously long.
