Hi !
This seems to be THE Number One tool I´ve been looking for quick texture mods preview in-game,
but after couple of hours trying I´m desperate/frustrated as there´s no any tutorial what´s needed for this
& how this is actually supposed to work. Thank You in Advance !!!
Cheers !!!

PS. Psiberx You Rocks !!!

Setup:
Wolvenkit 8.9.0 (stable)
WolvenKit Editor Red Hot Tools 0.4.6 enabled/installed
WolvenKit Editor CET plugin 1.23.0 enabled/installed
Cyberpunk 2077 (1.61 Jan 2023 v.10366133) Game CET Plugins installed

So what is currently happening (or isn´t) actually

Test A)

1. I´ve modified a texture
2. Imported the xxx.archive to the XX/pc/hot folder with Wolvenkit by using the Hot Reload button
3. Started the game (xxx.archive in the hot folder)
4. In game -> open console -> Hot Reload tools -> Reload Archive (I´ve got a nagging feeling that the auto monitor is doing the
   heavy lifting for me in this case :P)
5. xxx.archive is removed from the hot folder to the pc/mod folder -> archive is not loaded (in real-time) to the game
6. No change

Test B)

1. Started the game (no archives in Hot folder)
2. Imported the xxx.archive to game as it´s running by using the Hot Reload button in Wolvenkit
3. In game -> open console -> Hot Reload tools -> Reload Archive (I can´t untick the monitor changes btw)
4. xxx.archive is removed from the hot folder to the pc/mod folder -> archive is not added/re-loaded (in real-time) to the game
5. No change

Test C)

1. Imported the xxx.archive to the XX/pc/hot folder with Wolvenkit by using the Hot Reload button
2. Started the game (xxx.archive in the hot folder)
3. In game -> open console -> Hot Reload tools -> Reload Archive
4. xxx.archive is removed from the hot folder to the pc/mod folder -> archive is not re-loaded (in real-time) to the game
5. Made changes to the xxx.archive
6. Imported the xxx.archive to game in as it´s running by using the Hot Reload button in Wolvenkit
7. xxx.archive is added to the pc/hot folder but it´s not removed to the pc/mod folder anymore.
8. No change :(

Cyberpunk crashes to desktop after pressing the "Hot Reload" button in WolvenKit or the one inside the CET addon. the .archive i was working on is an ArchiveXL clothes item and i was trying to change its .mlsetup. the crash always happens, regardless of .archive or type of modification though. RHT used to work reliably pre 2.11 and is a very helpful tool that saves a ton of time! i would very much like to be able to use it again!

First, I would like to thank you for this great tool. I just would like to inform that for some reason ARCHIVE with ENV / ENVPARAM files are not been updated (other files work fine).
