I'm trying to change the modifiers on the essence cost reduction of Alphaware, betaware, etc, but using the built in editor, I've had no luck so far. Anyone know of a way I can do this?

Unfortunately the source code is unavailable. It was available for some time - but it seems everyone missed that window which is really sad. NSRCG is a great program. Multiple ppl tried to reach out to the author but without luck.

But shouldn't it be possible to add custom gear in the cyberware tables? I would just add your "alpha" gear as custom entries, with the essence cost you would like them to have.
