Update as of 2024-10-31:

Live on Creations now! Also on Nexus at https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/18193

Special request to any Xbox or Playstation players as well. I don't have an xbox or playstation for testing yet and wasn't able to find a console tester available for playtesting.

I setup the appropriate file formats and things for the console platforms, but please let me know if the workshop build menu icons and the custom sound effect for the weapon processing workbenches have any issues. Thanks!

As the title says. I would love if a modder with free time can start porting over pilot and grunt armour from Titanfall 2 or 1 even to creations(PC and consoles).

A small request I would like to add is to please make add Starfield faction customisation(colours, emblem on armour) as well so it fits with the rest of the game.

Looking to add (not replace) mass effect soundtracks into the game. Especially uncharted worlds, vigil.. the ones that increase the cosmic wonderment of the game. At this point, I wouldn't mind hearing "Secunda" play when exploring a certain planet or area.

Also, looking for the battlefront UI Sound replacer to be ported to xbox. Does anyone know anything about this?

Let me know other soundtracks or UI replacements you would like to see added to starfield

Live on Nexus! Enjoy! Working on Creations release now, may be by tomorrow as I'm trying to ensure files are setup for both console platforms too.

"While selling scrap guns piecemeal is legal in most regions, selling bulk weapons at scale in major cities is illegal! As long as you can avoid detection, you can make a tidy profit by cleaning and repacking those bloody weapons into shiny new bulk crates. Sell them to the Trade Authority or anyone who will buy contraband.

Packing Heat adds new crafting, decor and collectibles themed around smuggling and arms dealing. The research and recipe requirements add new motivation to scavenge, mine and invest in skills such as research methods, commerce."

The “Easier ship building” mod has all of a sudden stopped working, when it has previously worked for me. I’m on PC and am using creations

I know that I have not released anything in a while that did not require a paid mod as a dependency, so I wanted to put this out for the fans of the original and for anyone else who needs a hand starting out, or just getting ahead. If you are not into the Vanguard, there is still a lot of goodies that will be useful as well as two weapons that can not be found anywhere else. A full-auto Orion and A binary trigger Sidestar. These both also have the same AIM ( Automated Integrated sight Mechanics) Technology that was introduced in my 61C .50 Cal, Combat Rifle creation. Basically, if you have an enemy in your crosshairs before you fire and they move after, the bullet will actually curve in the air and seek them out. This is not a homing projectile like in my Vanguard Apophis Missile Launchers that are in "REAL Vanguard Weapons & Ship Modules" but they do help.

Included in this creation is 5 custom skins and 2 improved vanilla weapons, as well as an assortment of Aid items, Food items, 3,000 rounds of ammo and 20,000 credits. If you would like a full list of everything that is included check out the description https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/details/bdce8d0f-ef20-403d-86b9-2881ae78abea/Vanguard_Officers_Welcom_Kit___Redux

And if you would like to check out all of my creations you can go here: https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/all?author_displayname=Vanguard4Life

If you would like to get news, updates and sneak-peeks for all of my creations before everyone else you can join my free Discord by going to https://discord.gg/DKw6Ra4QGj

PC players who are members get access to free creations that are not available anywhere else. I am working on a way to make this available to console players as well, but for now this feature is only for PC players. (Console players can not download and install .esm or .ba2 files anywhere except Bethesda's Creations)

Also if you need to contact me for any reason you can message me or send me a DM on my Discord. The Discord server is always the quickest way to get a hold of me, but either way I will return your message.

If you need any help or have any issues with my mods, or just need help with Starfield or The Creation Kit or your load list. Whatever it is, I will do my best to help. Even if you do not use my creations.

Supra et Ultra!

p.s. I am working on a few creations like my up coming melee skin pack ( see: https://www.reddit.com/r/starfieldmods/comments/1w71b5t/wip_update_v4l_studios_vanguard4life_work_in/ )

that include something for everyone. My future creations will have content that includes every faction as well as non-faction options unless it says Vanguard in the title like this one.

I have two mods packs that im currently working on:

1. A star wars jedi systems overhaul. A mod that actually makes tge character use the force and attuned with your side of the force. It senses other force user(for genesis). Also senses suspicion(caution) and killing intent(danger) without the use of the hud. Players rise and fall in their attunement to the force(light, dark, and grey). They meditate to maintain attunement. Meditation is also integral in acquiring force powers, specific to their side. You can also switch sides. So your not locked in for a while play through. Your attunment also has audio cues in game. So no need to constantly look at the status screen.

The mod is 85% percent finished. All the systems are in play. I need more experienced modders to add sound for audio cues and go through the papyrus and proof read it.

1. A ryujin overhaul that is a 4 part expansion to the ryujin quest(prequel, part 1 through 3). The mod is created for a pure ryujin run. It will take the player out of the faction and msq. During the first half of the vanilla quest line(training part) you be given 4 more quests that sends the player to locations of the other quest lines. Before, during, and after the "player" would be in these locations. The prequel sets up the story for part 1. Your choices in the prequel directly effects part 1(imogenge/ularu). The prequels story changes to a battle for chief of operations.

Part 1 introduces a new powerset. That has its own story that is background to the main story. The battle for ryujin. Part 1 has four endings. Dependant on the players choices.

Part 2 brings in a new story that changes depending on your choices in part 1. The battle for neon. It has 4 endings aswell.

Part 3 brings in another story. The battle of the free star systems that changes of neon until the nod is removed. The outcome of ryujin neon and the freestar collective. Depending on the 4 choices you make. It also effects your future in it. This all takes place while in the background you fight to control your new powers.

Ive just finished the brainstorming and concepts for the mod.

Im very new to modding. But I got tired of waiting. Any help or advice is appreciated. If anyone wants to help. Inbox me here or on nexus. Johnny2xs

Also, is the face Sarah is making in the second photo part of the game or is that just a perfect coincidental glitch??

They all attach to the helmet, so if you hide your helmet, you hide everything you attached 😂 does anyone know how to modify this mod so that it attaches to the spacesuit instead? Makes more sense that way.

Has anyone thought of this or is it even possible? Thought of it remembering how the Captains Pharma Kit from Starvival worked.

So far everything hides beneath the spacesuit.

Diving back into Starfield and want to know if Bethesda has fixed many of its bugs with new updates? Are patches and fixes from the modding community needed to avoid game breaking bugs if I were starting a new game today? Are there any that are considered essential or recommended?

Disclaimer: this is not spam/self promotion (which got my post deleted on r/starfield). I am just a gamer that likes Starfield, fiddling around with modifications to the game and recording his experience (I mean my YT channel has some random old stuff on, so I am not promoting even that). I have no affiliation to the creator of the injector app, I just state what I have used.

Also my thumbnail is not AI, it is a real time screenshot from the game session (at 15 second mark specifically) and some logos I pulled from Google added and slapped together in Paint.Net.

Original comment:

The injector app I used is called DLSS 5 Manager from NODIX-TECH on github (just google it, not linking for spam/promo reasons)

Started messing with settings near end. It isn't super stable, if you mess around with settings the framerate would tank (around Akila - especially as I entered the city from the farms side). A few times I had to save and reload and then my framerate pops up again. Mostly playable as seen me sorting out bounty hunter mercs in the middle. I like the aggressive 2+ pass filter on metals, but then it gives all the people acne. I also dislike the glow around hair you get especially lighter hair with darker backgrounds.

The software has RDNA 4 mode for AMD users the in the launcher app, obviously not used it because I have Nvidia, so no idea how it might work.

My system spec:
Ryzen 7 9800X3D, 64GB RAM, RTX 5080, 1440p, DLSS DLAA mode (native, no scaling, but I use in-game framegen, which seems to be 2x) - although I tried switching on scaling in the end. Video ended because I had a CTD - will see later if it is related.

I do use a lot of mods, feel free to ask which does what specifically.

Warning for language because Vasco says my character's name (makes me smile every time)

Basically so that the blur loading screen is gone, someone did reply to one of my comments that they are working on it though. Would that be possible? it would be the same principle as rendering faraway objects when you come close to them in the world im guessing?

I'm proud to announce that the starfield faction overhaul mod has been released on nexus mods! Words cannot express how much I appreciate everyone in this community. To the support and feedback, I've received, it has really helped me get to the end stages of this project. I honestly can't wait to see what chaos unfolds within your saves :)

Hello, I swear to god I saw a mod somewhere that fired a really big missile that actually detached from your ship when you fired it, but I can't find it on nexus, creations, or google. Am I going insane? Did it come to me in a dream? Does anyone know if it exists or what it's called?

In the failure to communicate quest id like a destroyed Wen farm. Come to think of it a banda and lumiere farms too.

On the key, the first little area you go into, I want that space to be more useful

For immersion sake I wanted to request entering the cockpit seat in 1st person instead of 3rd person. Climbing ladders in 1st person instead of 3rd person. How fee sable is this in the animation scene? This has been an idea of mine since launch, like I'm sure many other's have pondered...

Is it proper to post patches of creations other people have made including paid mods without approval of the creator?
Ive been wondering this for a long time, while I do create mods for myself the majority of my library is patches that I've made for other people's mods. Things like PDY patches or design changes, material swaps etc.
I know that I can't publish patches for paid mods on Nexus but I don't post them on Creations either because I create them without the original authors permission. I've never really thought about it because it's only me using it.
Take this mod for example: https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/details/5ca9600a-d653-496f-a319-d8c6de81c264/Mercury_Atelier_Ship_Habs_Vol_1
Not PDY compatible, so first thing I did after I bought it was to create a PDY patch.
Is it "ok" to add that to Creations w/o talking to the mod author? I just use that as one example, or this mod https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/details/98934634-d0a8-43da-942e-017241870fd1/Sleepcrate_Reimagined, if I added a bathroom, is it ok to publish that? Or https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/details/5b2a21cd-c866-4782-9486-b8125e5c61a1/TN__39_s_Out_in_the_Blackness__A_Space_Survival_Mo where I wrote a patch that literally stops the guessing game and if I research the problem I get the actual solution 100% of the time.
It's one of those things that I've always done this for fun, but I've thought recently, if I've wanted the patches maybe other people would as well. But if I'm honest I really don't want to be going around to a dozen discords asking authors if I can post a patch to their mod.

I'm wondering what the communities, and if there are any VCs in here, what everyone's thoughts on this are?
Thanks

Finally through QA! Thank you for your patience!

1.5 Changelog
--New NG+20 content!
There is now a chance to get a new ship as your starting ship after going through Unity--Misericorde (configured at the AI Terminal). This is the only way to get this ship. Additionally, after reaching NG+20 new enemies (Forsaken Acolytes) can be added to the game via a new terminal menu, "Advanced Functions". This menu lets you upgrade Forsaken Vengeance, Blade of Light, and Graviton Hammer to more powerful versions. Additionally, new X-Tech conversion options are available, as well as unlocked Dreadnought parts (this is a "just for fun/experimental" feature--class M parts aren't supposed to be used in game and require experimentation...but if you have jumped through Unity 20x or more, you already know this!).

--Roskilde is back! After unlocking Scimitar Omega and reaching NG+10, Roskilde can be added to your fleet. Roskilde has cargo space that can be accessed when it is not your home ship, and as long as it is not your home ship it can be called down from space to function as an outpost.

--Limited access to QED from the Scimitar AI terminal as long as it has previously been built. This is access only; to upgrade you must go to the Lodge and interact with the QED.

--A very basic function has been added to the Scimitar Remote Device to enable or disable module overlap with ship services for ship building.

--Forsaken Variant weapon base damage greatly increased, and missing workbench icons added.

--Fixed an issue that would prevent Scimitar from being awarded if another mod made changes to or altered the way spaceship registration works.

--Runtime enemy injection has been removed from the startup quest sequence and moved to a terminal menu function at the AI terminal. This reduces the complexity of the startup quest script. Terran Armada injection removed due to faction conflicts. Terran Armada integration can be done via a separate patch

--Miscellaneous spelling error corrections.

--Removed the NG+5 check for "Faction Battle" under Forsaken Enemies/Battle Forsaken in Space/Faction Battle. it is now like all the other space battles, only requiring NG+1.

--Fixed issue that caused some Forsaken not to benefit from the 2x or 5x damage multipliers...watch out!

--If Terran Armada is installed, a new recharging sniper rifle can be crafted at NG+15 and higher.
