starfield-mods

[mortal tundra]

These are tiny, simple mods, that give you good learning around how to build functionality.

For me my next step has been learning what you can and can't do with scripting -- i.e. what can I change dynamically

Next up for me is menus and driving those scripts from in-game calls

[shell pelican]

I would love to see the witness suit from deadspace 3. That was my favorite.

[junior cargo]

I was thinking, first mod for me would be more variants of chunks since id think that wouldn't be too hard

[mortal tundra]

If you're a visual "handholding" learner, then take a look at JRamos and Darkfox127 and @thick plaza videos

[dapper galleon]

So something's up now I think the Spartan Vale Armor mod .ight have been the one that broke my game. Now when I exit the ship customizer my game 100% crashes

[mortal tundra]

@junior cargo might be a good start, especially if you're graphically inclined -- i definitively am NOT, so that wasn't gonna be a good start for me 😄

The principle remains.. find enough of a small "passion project" to get some quick wins and to learn how to do it, and then grow 🙂

[dapper galleon]

Ok it wasn't that mod, but that literally is the only Mod I just installed and started to see the issue but now my Ship customizer crashes my game 100% when exiting. Anyone else seeing this issue

[mortal tundra]

@dapper galleon generally you cannot pinpoint any single mod until you run through load orders and look at ALL the mods you have taken as a whole... some - probably most mods do fine in isolation, but YOUR SAVE with YOUR MODS are all going to come into play to determine if the games gonna crash

remove the mod, roll back to a save before you installed it, and see if you're having the problem -- no, then the mod is causing YOUR problem... it does not mean it causes the problem necessarily for anyone else...

the other day the decorated akila house was the "straw that broke the camel's back" on ONE of my saves, and it made all of akila "de-skin"

[dapper galleon]

I can't roll back to the save before it I will.lose alot of decoration progress like 2 hours worth I just deleted it and will delete saved data and reload my Load order that is saved

[mortal tundra]

it doesn't mean that the mod is inherently broken

[dapper galleon]

I'm actually going to delete a bunch of outfits mods and just leave the bounty hunter and EIT ones plus the Nomad Suits

[sly ocean]

1. If you installed then uninstalled that mod, make sure you're loading a save from before you installed the mod, as it's possible some changes made by the mod are baked into any saves you made with the mod enabled.
2. Restart your game.
3. If that didn't fix it, if you're on XBox, power down your console completely, wait until the light on the power button turns off, unplug the power cable, hold the power button for 30 seconds, release it, plug in power, start it up and try again (clears XBox cache).
4. If that doesn't work, temporarily disable all mods and try again. If that works, enable half your mods, try again, and so forth.
5. If that doesn't work, and you're on XBox, delete your reserved space and redownload all your mods. Either save your load order beforehand (recommended) or try to load a save and let the game redownload all your mods.
6. If none of that worked, not sure what else to try. Go through the Unity? lol

[dapper galleon]

I saw the mask mod I had got changed though so perhaps that was it.

[mortal tundra]

there are some that will warn you "oh never do that on an active save" - I would merely counsel make sure you've deleted all assets created by the mod you're going to delete, and you'l USUALLY be ok...

[dapper galleon]

Someone needs to make a.mod that auto finishes the three faction quest for those players who end up having to go through the universe reset to fix issues. I already did those quest twice I really don't feel like doing them all over again

[mortal tundra]

@dapper galleon so don't... you don't need to do them until you're ready to hang around in a universe

[sly ocean]

Yeah, I tend to live life on the wild side with regard to adding and deleting mods mid-game, and I've almost never had an issue. But, if you do so and it causes trouble, your only recourse will be to redownload the mod or deal with the issue 😁

[mortal tundra]

for me I do NG0 as a "full playthrough" where I do all of them, and then build up all my skills and outposts, and usually level to about 300-400 or so.

[safe sorrel]

I can say as someone who’s had to roll back hours, or days worth of decoration work, it always takes a long time to create in the first place, but only a tiny fraction of that time to redo it because all the decision making and problem solving is already done, you’re just building from memory

[dapper galleon]

That's the thing I am already ready to hang around the universe but if something in the game breaks and that's the only way to fix it then I have to redo that entire thing all over again. And it can get tiring

[sly ocean]

In my case, if I broke a quest or something, I'd just make a personal mod to fix it, lol. But, not everyone is in the same boat.

[mortal tundra]

Then NG1 - 10 I turbo that stuff -- I get in, get artifacts, build a ship strong enough to smash the Masada fight, and then GTFO after getting all temple powers

then I don't hang around in a universe again until after ng10

[dapper galleon]

These issue are starting to get a bit old, you practically have to be your own tech support just to play this video game. 😂

[sly ocean]

I've been holding off on making something like my Ring and Scrolls of Quest-Fixing or Holotape(s) of Quest-Fixing, because those both became years-long sagas with dozens of requests per month to this day, and I don't really want to incur that for Starfield as well...but if no one makes a Quest Debugger or something, I guess I'll make a Rings of Quest-Fixing mod eventually.

[mortal tundra]

last 2 playthroughs I did "choose your variant" by hand with console commands, and then using "Choose Your Variant Universes

those variants are super fast

[sly ocean]

Also, I haven't had a great deal of broken quests for Starfield since their first big update fixed the few common ones. FO4 and Skyrim were much more troublesome in that regard. If anything, people would mostly just use such a mod to skip quests, which might cause more problems than it solves and result in more requests for quest coverage to fix the problems they incurred abusing the mod, heh.

[mortal tundra]

I see the background changers, and I'm just like... why ... after your first 10 levels or so, it's totally irrelevant which 3-4 things you started with.

[dapper galleon]

Ok so it's fixed now but I have a new problem but it happened before I just can't remember how I fixed it.

I basically can't attach a thing on my ship once I remove it

[mortal tundra]

Trait changing already built in.. but background change... nah... by the time you pop NG it won't change your gameplay, so why bother

[mental timber]

who put the pivot on Fridge02 youre fired

[mortal tundra]

I cheese the heck out of anyway by using the "not a noob" background 😄

[hollow salmon]

@mortal tundra hey what's up

[mortal tundra]

sup wolf, did you reinstall SF?

[hollow salmon]

yes and it is still not working at all

I can't get past start a new game

I been seeing other PC players having a similar issues too

on Reddit and Steam

[mortal tundra]

the question others asked that I never saw your answer -- did you go into your my documents\my games\starfield folder and clear that ou ttoo?

[dapper galleon]

So I think last time I just delete my landing pad the. rebuilt it and that fixed the issue

[mortal tundra]

before reinstalling
Is %LOCALAPPDATA% popping a starfield folder now?

[hollow salmon]

yes I did all of it is completely a brand new game now with no modsa

[dapper galleon]

Anyone else ever have that issue, were parts just don't snap on to your ship at all. They are always red even if it's just two Habs put together

[mortal tundra]

@dapper galleon not i, but I also only use Darkstar Astrodynamics, and hide empty ship habs... so all my models are "stock vanilla"

[dapper galleon]

I'm using the Darkstar one.

[mortal tundra]

if you're using Place Doors Yourself you HAVE to drop a door through them

i think they won't link if you forgot the door

[dapper galleon]

That's not the issue. Like even the cowlings don't snap to normal snap points

And I'm definitely not playing vanilla, that straight up looks boring

[mortal tundra]

you got any of the other shipbuilding things? larger ships, unlock class m, outpost shipbuilder unlocked etc etc etc

[hollow salmon]

I found out people using Xbox are not having any issues with starfield

[mortal tundra]

@hollow salmon mah dude.. puff puff pass senor, because clearly you're hogging it all 🙂

[hollow salmon]

lol yea I am

[dapper galleon]

I'm on Xbox and always have issues not sure what your on about

[hollow salmon]

Can you game get past start new game after a brand new install?

[dapper galleon]

Fixed it it Inrwber how I did it last time I just quit out the game and reloaded it now everything attaches

[mortal tundra]

short answer yes

[dapper galleon]

Dear God all that just to change our one Hab lol

[mortal tundra]

quick test is open console and type "coc MQUnity" and off you go to NG+

[hollow salmon]

With my PC I can't get past that I get the running circle of death that last for days

[dapper galleon]

Oh great now it crashes after the ship builder exits wtf

[hollow salmon]

I am day 3 right now

[mortal tundra]

I would suggest that your game install still isn't right

[dapper galleon]

It's back to that issue

[mortal tundra]

especially if you install either ASI Loader, SFSE, or the dll Achievement enabler

[hollow salmon]

I just start a new game with no mods installed too

[mortal tundra]

well.. achievement enabler is pretty solid, haven't seen ANY problems with that except some strangeness around the save modcheck

so you load the game and check for mods that affect the save -- that function's off if you have the dll acheivment enabler turned on

SFSE was more painful for me to set up than Ultimate ASI Loader, and UASI seems to update faster than SFSE... but YMMV -- I only still use ASI loader for Fast Travel to Unknown and Better Console

And then StarUI mods -- I won't play with vanilla interface... just ... ew

[hoary lava]

Have you recently extracted all game materials into local? There's a known issue that causes game to occasionally crash if so, some sort of memory leak or unhandled exception.

[mortal tundra]

restart computer -- HARD restart -- not start, restart... start.. shutdown, pull power for 10 sec -- and then go to steam and repair the installation

I could see Miirty's point but if you don't have CK installed I wouldn't expect you'd have any reason to do that.

[dapper galleon]

Dude the amount of time I am spending just trying to fix this one issue I could have grinded out loot in the first Descendent.

I swear this game is just a troubleshoot simulator 😂

[mortal tundra]

LOL

[hoary lava]

The reason I say this, is because the crash happens immediately at runtime like you explained.

[mortal tundra]

wait till you see how much time you can spend writing mods!

[fast owl]

you mean that 20% drop that takes 20+ times or the 3% drop. lol

[dapper galleon]

Oh I don't make any, but I'm staring to hit that point where I may just walk away from the game for a while, I enjoy the game only with mods so No vanilla cus that looks so boring

[dapper galleon]

I seem to always have RNG on my side I be getting back to back drops all the time

Ok I give up I'm going to load a previous save which was three damn hours ago.

I go into ship builder and exit it was fine, I go in to ship builder and switch a Hab... Exit and it crashes

Omg the last save without the dumb this was 9am today wtf where did all the other saves go

This game makes zero sense with the saves

I hard save before I Expect to download any new mod so where are those saves

I am starting to see why that other guy was getting upset with this game, especially when your the only one going through that issue it really feels rather annoyingly Isolating

[fast owl]

https://tenor.com/view/captain-america-marvel-avengers-gif-14328153

[dapper galleon]

I feel like the game is more of a Playing a ticking time bomb where it's not a matter of if but when your going to run into a game breaker and have to reset all your progress

I swear I'ma go tell my buddy who recommended me this game to go Sleep on sharp rocks lol

[mental timber]

welcome to beth games

[twin atlas]

My Emporium AIO - part one’s Final item addition update is live. The total amount of added items in the mod is now 917. The only future updates to part one will be to fix any bugs and add formalists to help organize for part 2.

[dapper galleon]

Wait all there games are like this.

[safe sorrel]

This is why every once in a while I’ll go to the Unity and make a hard save whenever my game starts feeling “dicey” so that I can jump through if it all starts breaking down

[dapper galleon]

Yea but that really can't be a good long term solution though.

[autumn idol]

wake the hell up Expired has done it!
https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/6850?tab=description

[mental timber]

the term "bethesda charm" comes to mind

[dapper galleon]

Yup it's busted I guess I'll have to do that unity thing but I basically can't edit my ships and exit if I edit a ship and exit it crashes the game 100% of the time

[autumn idol]

Added functionality to import .npc files from the Creation Kit onto the character as a preset
Added functionality to export the current character preset to .npc file for use in the Creation Kit
Upgraded preset version to 2 to fix an ordering error with ABGR format for Layers, also renamed some keys. Version 1 presets will still load as expected```

[twin atlas]

Boba Fett follower incoming!!

[safe sorrel]

It’s not great, but accepting the void has helped me make peace with it

I’m only on my second universe though and been playing since launch, so got a ridiculous number of hours in each one

[dapper galleon]

Yea I get that, but one would think that the Devs are trying to find a way to not make that the solution though. I'm not familiar with Bethesda much, but is that what they tend to do or is it more of that dev that's like It's broken we won't fix it it deal with it.

[mortal tundra]

@safe sorrel and that's where we come into different strokes for different folks.. no wrong way to do it... Ng1-9 i'm lucky if I spend 3 hours in each one

[dapper galleon]

This is really not building up my confidence to keep playing Finesse.rialt lose so much progress in decorating things and that one thing that is keeping me playing but if I'm going to constantly have to redo it all man I don't think I'm up for that

[safe sorrel]

I played a lot of FO4 and saves used to get bloaty and weird on that one too, and FO76 is its own unique form for chaos

I got into Cyberpunk 2077 shortly after launch, so I may have a high pain tolerance for this kind of thing

[twin atlas]

Any of you guys getting messages to add other authors mods to yours?

[safe sorrel]

I’m a big decorator too, like BIIIIIGGGG into it.

I record all my outposts, homes and ships so I have record of them and can enjoy them even after moving on

Starting up again is rough, but opens up new opportunities to do things differently

[dapper galleon]

Yea To me that just seems like a bad product, but it's being Disguised as a games charm.

[dapper galleon]

Honestly I don't really like staring over for the most part it actually makes me enjoy the game less and less because it just becomes tiring especially because I can't save presets of my stuff.

[safe sorrel]

I thought about that for universe #2, then I built my New Atlantis outpost, and settled back in for another few hundred hours. I don’t move on till I can hear my save groan when I load in

[dapper galleon]

So your saying I was right that the game is a ticking time bomb.. sounds like a faulty product really. Is Bethesda aware of this and are they trying to fix it?

[safe sorrel]

That’s what I started getting into mods. That way I have some I can take with me, and some I can do over again

I’m also careful to avoid as much bloat as I can, I don’t hoard a lot of stuff, run my cargo links lean, and that helps a lot

[mortal tundra]

@safe sorrel mine definitely are there right now... ng1 and ng10 get bogggggggged down since I do them each as "completionist"

[dapper galleon]

I mean isn't that kinda part of the game itself, basically playing the game essentially bloats it. So It's almost like you can't play the game the way it was designed to be played because it breaks the game

[mortal tundra]

28 outposts, full production of every harvestable resource.. every craftable resource crafted @ least 32750 of each... razorleaf rebuilt to dreadnaught... etc...

[dapper galleon]

So what I'm hearing is Just skipping the main story do that quick and don't do anything else if I want to decorate my ships

[mortal tundra]

full quest completion, all quest lines complete...

[dapper galleon]

I'll just do the main and trackers maybe the Xeno weapon monster one for the penthouse. It that's it no Fleet one no Akila one

That sucks though seems like poor game design if being a competionist essentially breaks your save file

[mortal tundra]

@dapper galleon it depends on what you love doin... I love the feeling of being a god among mortals.. so I do what it takes to get there quickly

I don't do ANY side quests apart from grabbing razorleaf, and with DSA I don't even do that any more... I just use the ship Wykkyd gives you

[safe sorrel]

They have done updates to help, and they’ve helped a lot. There is just a lot for the game to keep track off, the building, hoarding, discovering, all adds to the burden. It’s not really that avoidable while still having all the things we love to do on the games

I will say my saves are long, like many many hundreds of hours long, so I can’t get too salty

[dapper galleon]

I get that but what your saying is the games having trouble keeping track of the stuff that essentially is the point of the game.

It's like building a super car but you can't really take it over 150 mph or accelerate it that much because it's going to have trouble so you have to drive it like a sedan

[mortal tundra]

If something doesn't change how the game plays, for me, its a waste of my time... but I have zero talent or eye for decoration/graphics etc etc... I have nothing but love and props to folks like TG and Skully who do... but .. it doesn't change how the game mechanically plays, so most of the time I'm skipping it.

and that's JUST my playstyle, some folks LOVE getting into decoration and rp and doing stuff like that.... not my cup o tea....

[dapper galleon]

So who ever made the Nomad armor, mod can you make it so I can just craft the armor, I really don't like having to RNG it with vendors to get the specic one I want

[mortal tundra]

like all the star wars stuff... for me... it's 99% nah son 🙂

[safe sorrel]

I get that for sure, I’m former art school trash so get really into it

Making the most complicated vanilla outposts has been my jam since FO4, imagining the world my characters would want to build and then building it

[mortal tundra]

@safe sorrel and I'm a CS geek who dated a few art school trash... i recognize that while what we do goes hand in hand, "working the plumbing" and "doing the impossible" is my jam.. i rely on you to make it purty 😉

[mortal tundra]

absofrickinlutely gorgeous... and something I'd NEVER spend the time to do 😄

[dapper galleon]

I really don't do Bases I mostly try to live out of the ship

[safe sorrel]

You can do some great things in this game

[dapper galleon]

But from now on it's skip main quest only moving forward.

[dapper galleon]

Like reset hours of Progress because the game doesn't seem to be able to handle the thing it was designed to do by default 😂

[mortal tundra]

I think the engine at this 10 seconds is more accommodating of my playstyle than y'all's... that DOES NOT make it any better... just smoother 🙂

[safe sorrel]

I love a bit of both! I get really into figuring out how things work and how they tick, but much more talented with the artistic side of things

[dapper galleon]

Like hey here's a Ferrari but you can't drive it over 50mph be cause it will break. 😂

[safe sorrel]

😂 you’re not wrong!!

[mortal tundra]

I also hadn't touched a bethesda game since Quake II, so this is allllllllll new stuff for me

[dapper galleon]

I think I'll also limit myself to just two ships

[mortal tundra]

With DSA, I do 3 in a "normal" playthrough

the DSA Avenger, SBG, and Razorleaf... although last couple since CK came out, I did 3 with JUST the DSA avenger

oh.. and frontier... cuz oyu can't sell it....

[dapper galleon]

The good news is I have cheats so I can give my self like a billion credits at start

[mortal tundra]

why cheat, build yourself a bessel base in about 30 minutes, and get ~a million creds per 24 hour sleep cycle

wellll... you do have to have my or another super rich merchant tweaks to do that too....

[safe sorrel]

You know I actually love the early game phase where I’m broke and scrambling for every med pack, it makes everything feel energized and important

[mortal tundra]

"uh yes, i'm a vendor, who sells cokes for 150 credits, but I can't buy more than a helmet and backpack from you"

F... that...

that plus starui workbench, so you can craft 65530 or 32750 items at a time really help too 🙂

[mental timber]

yes cheat 😛

my poi will help with that

[dapper galleon]

I don't want to spend 30 minutes building a base, I prefer to skip things so I can get to the stuff Inlike instantly, especially now that I'm finding out the game essentially is going to bomb on me and I'ma have to start over again several times. Yea no not doing 30 minutes of building some base just ringer what I can get in a second or two with another mod

[sharp lynx]

boop

[sharp lynx]

https://tenor.com/view/back-off-this-is-my-swamp-shrek-shreks-swamp-gif-10789086609985963859

[tulip rapids]

mods are always experimental they tell you that up front. they already made a game that works you're downloading third party master game file modifications

[mortal tundra]

https://tenor.com/view/happy-snoopy-dance-rainbow-dancing-gif-9502448

it finally works!

[sharp lynx]

oh nice

[mortal tundra]

no ingestor needed, although I'll leave it in

aw well. crap.. i broke my ingestible 😄

sooooo... maybe i won't ;D

[safe sorrel]

Ha I had a great swampy swamp spot picked out in Shoza that I wanted to build a space hermit retreat on

[dapper galleon]

Omg note to self turn off saroud sound when. Entering the unity... Dear God talk about hearing loss engaged lol

[sharp lynx]

https://tenor.com/view/thx-logo-thx-logo-logos-zoom-in-gif-27226877

[mortal tundra]

LOL

[dapper galleon]

Pretty much

[sharp lynx]

Please do

use one of my homes 0-0

[dapper galleon]

Ok so I have the basics layout for my ship pretty much known at this point I just really hate that I have to decorate the whole thing.

I know what I want though but I hate having to sort though so many menues I wish I could save a present for it

[sharp lynx]

this would make a great swamp house

[dapper galleon]

@twin atlas I had to restart game but look at how much I did.. Al lost and have to start over lol

[twin atlas]

The final update is out, now a total of 917 items. And the suit displays are included.

[autumn idol]

it works!!!
https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/6997

[twin atlas]

I cant wait til tomorrow, i’m going full psycho on it. Boba fett !!!

[autumn idol]

time to make Sarah into a proper waifu

[twin atlas]

Hopefully the hair stays

[dapper galleon]

@twin atlas I'm started a new NG+ so I still have to figure out a few things before my ship build but did the new AIO add anything from tracker alliance

[sharp lynx]

https://tenor.com/view/shaw-person-of-interest-sameen-sarah-shahi-feelings-gif-20305584

mean while Sarah

[twin atlas]

Omg my replaces could possibly get fixed.

[twin atlas]

Nope. Thats part 2

[dapper galleon]

Ok, can't wait till part two drops 😁

i had an idea for a large weapon mod

sort of a historical weapons pack, bc if im being honest, i like the idea of using a 10 gauge double barrel shotgun to blow a hole through an alien more than the break action shotgun we got

[dapper galleon]

I would love that Tony gun shotgun, with so many explosive rounds

[dapper galleon]

id also like to use an RSC, smth about that unique clip reload

garand would be fun

part of this is just me wanting some of the more forgotten weapons brought forward for everyone to see

not many people think of the mas 44 or the mas 49 (same gun slightly different changes) the lebel is one of them. the 1917 enfield, the chauchat C6 and the chauchat machine gun. there are dozens of guns i would love to see

[mortal tundra]

Ahhh.. ok.. so after I finish fixing up Easy Outpost button, I guess Wartortle's stuff is next up... he just said he isn't planning on bringing it over, and that it's open permissions so anyone can...

Smartdoc and Take Items Through Unity .. hopefully by the end of the week

[safe sorrel]

Oh it would, I was originally thinking something small like the treehouse one I did a while back only gloomier https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5b866wzMYfU

[sharp lynx]

or that lol

reminds me I need to port my tree habs

LOL you really made a step out of food trays

[safe sorrel]

Over one hundred individually scavenged trays

[sharp lynx]

clever

[safe sorrel]

I really wanted to live in that tree

[sharp lynx]

gotta port this

[safe sorrel]

Oh nice!

[sharp lynx]

so long ago

wow I really like what you did there

[twin atlas]

Giving kashyyyk realness

[dapper galleon]

When someone says changing load order mid game can break your game does that mean just NG+ each time you do it or like quit out. The game entirely load new mod then go back into save

[mortal tundra]

it's adding or removing mods that can break, load order can break/fix that INSTANCE, but won't really break the game

[sharp lynx]

it's highly dependant on what the mod does

[dapper galleon]

I'm still confused though.

[mortal tundra]

whatever loads LAST in the load order "wins"... if two things make changes to the same thing, last one wins

[dapper galleon]

There's a engine cosmetic mod and another one with small modules but it says use the ship builder category mod, and cha.fingnload order mid game will break it so I am stuck thinking unless I want to NG+ again I can't download those mods

[sharp lynx]

for example, if you add an outpost mod and build a bunch of outposts the game will crash the instant you try and open the build menu or go near any outposts with the mod's stuff

[mortal tundra]

@sharp lynx if you REMOVE the mod, yes, sure, but if you move that mod in a different order with, say a mod that changes ship engines... it will make no difference

[autumn idol]

yesssss!!!!!

[dapper galleon]

This is seeming like more work then it's worth as much as I like the idea of the tiny modules to make sleeker builds I don't want to have to go get a degree in something just tomplay the game

[autumn idol]

finally Andromeda Kepler looks good

[mortal tundra]

in the case you're talking about.. the load ORDER is ok to mess with (mostly), but removing the mod, would make that ship unplayable for example

[twin atlas]

This excites me. I can finally finish my 42 replacers

[dapper galleon]

Simple mod which adds over 30+ new ship modules. https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/details/8d6c2d4d-5001-435f-88fa-7d3c60fd797a/Micro_Modules_by_ChevZed

This is the mod in question

This adds cosmetic engines to the structure section of the ship building menu. https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/details/006c5ee2-27d1-483c-882d-42aa7499844b/Decorative_Engines_by_nhackett

And this one but the description just confuses me an snakes me think ok just don't download it

[sharp lynx]

try it out on a new character

[mortal tundra]

so, like i said, if it changes a texture or something that already existed, it could cause issues with load order, but it WILL cause issues if you build a ship with any of those parts, and then REMOVE the mod

[dapper galleon]

I don't want to go through all that I'll just not download it

[sharp lynx]

then dont

https://tenor.com/view/pedro-pascal-eating-sandwich-gif-15402824556296045091

[dapper galleon]

I'm not, Inwas just trying to get an explanation I understood which Zeeogre pretty much did

[mortal tundra]

there ya go... TG with the right answer as usual 😄

[sharp lynx]

sometimes modding is a gamble

[hoary lava]

"Sometimes" lol.

[dapper galleon]

I might just go take up something like Call or Duty. Worse that happens is I run into aimbot user there 😂 sucks too cus this game is fun but it's starting to turn into a chore at this point and a super ticking timebomb 😂

[mortal tundra]

so I did peek at what he's saying.. he's somewhat dependent on another mod... so you need to have that other mod in there, and it wants that other mod above this one... so those two, in relation to each other, is how load order matters... you could have 93 other mods that don't give a hoot one way or another about either of the two

[dapper galleon]

But for real I'ma make sure to tell my buddy who recommended this game to go sleep on sharp rocks for that lol.

[sharp lynx]

I think the game is great, sorry you're having so much trouble

[dapper galleon]

I think that other mod might have been what caused my earlier issue with the ship builder crashing my game Everytime though so I don't want to risk it for what is essentially a unnecessary mod for the time being

[hoary lava]

Hear me out here... breaking the game is half the fun. Welcome to the club, now fix it.

I'm just kidding don't start throwing stuff.

[mortal tundra]

@dapper galleon for me that's a good policy... if a mod doesn't change the how the game plays in a way I want to play it.. I just don't use it... SKK's fast start.. great tool, great concept, love all the work he does... just don't LIKE what it does, so I don't load it.

[dapper galleon]

I don't find that fun so I think I'll just take long breaks from it.

Essentially it's a dusty product and I won't gaslight myself to thinking that's part of the fun

[mortal tundra]

and for me cosmetics generally aren't the ish 🙂

[sharp lynx]

Just..... save.... before.... you .... install... a.... mod

[dapper galleon]

Really the only thing I even enjoy from this game is the cosmetics exclusively from the mods, I find the NASA punk asthetics to be ugly and off putting. Had it not been for the mods I wouldn't have given this game much of shot

[dapper galleon]

I do do that but for some reason some of my hard saves deleted so I was stuck with NG+

[sharp lynx]

damn, when your saves delete themselves you may need to leave I guess

[twin atlas]

Isn’t there a save limit?

[sharp lynx]

dunno

I haven't hit one yet

[dapper galleon]

Probably, good thing is it's a Gamepass game so it's not something truly worth an investment. I'm not really money out on it, so If I do walk away it's no biggy.

Although some say it's a great game for me honestly Without the mods I think it's a Mediocre game.

The storyline for me was boring and flat, the asthetics is really outdated, and the game mechanics are but wonky with movement.

It really does feel dated.

But the mkd cosmetics are what makes it shine for me.

That's just how I feel though. I know someone will be bothered by that though but to them I say, not everyone thinks higky of something and it's something you must make peace with and get over

[sharp lynx]

I disagree but to each their own

[dapper galleon]

Yea that's what I said towards the end of what I wrote

[sharp lynx]

indeed I saw

[hoary lava]

Nobody plays games for skins alone... I mean come on. Something is keeping you here.

[sharp lynx]

try outer worlds?

[dapper galleon]

Nope it's mostly @twin atlas @mental timber mods that have been keeping me interested

[hoary lava]

Check out my skins, guaranteed to break your game.

[twin atlas]

https://tenor.com/view/awww-blushing-stop-it-gif-8624350259229898023

[dapper galleon]

Right now this game is just something to pass time until the games I'm really looking forward to release, once those drop I'll probably not touch this for a while. But that's life I guess.

To me video games are what a means to an end nothing kre then that. Just something to pass time between more important things

[twin atlas]

Dragon age !!!

[dapper galleon]

No I'm looking towards black ops 6, light no fire and possibly the next Halo game.

[hoary lava]

Go snag Baldurs Gate, you'll lose your immediate future.

[dapper galleon]

Already saw gameplay didn't catch my interest so not bothering

[sharp lynx]

see those games I find astoundingly boring

[twin atlas]

I wanna love BG3 but hate the camera angles

[fallen vector]

i'll only do BOs 6 via game pass,not gonna buy it or pre-ordcer it like i did starfield

[hoary lava]

I am the old Diablo generation, I love it.

[hollow salmon]

I am waiting for Dune: Awakening to come out

[dapper galleon]

I'm very picky about the games I play and my time in Allen from it.

So this game was lucky @twin atlas dropped those sweet mods cus it was almost A Naw hard pass. Honestly Part of me feels like I'm spending to much time on this game now and not enough on The first descendent.

[sharp lynx]

I mean you're still here LOL

[hollow salmon]

But also waiting for Mechwarrior 5 Clans

[dapper galleon]

It's crazy though because going between the two is rough. The first descendent has smoother gameplay while this one feels like I'm sliidng on ice half the time trying to just get my bearings when moving. Lol.

So I have eto take a bit to adjust

[dapper galleon]

Well the conversations are nice, plus I can't join the first descendent discord I guess they locked it soooo yea can't really go and talk to those people at the moment

[fallen vector]

even bought a copy of starfield for pc, so i have my xbox series x version and pc 😆 so beth got my money twice

[dapper galleon]

I would go to the COD discord but it's like half the people in there have weak egos and anger issues so I just stay here where it seems more chill and laid back

[junior cargo]

i might actually buy it on steam so i can use sfse since better mods can be made with that, rn all i have is game pass

[fallen vector]

well since we aren't talking mods this should go in #starfield-chat

[hollow salmon]

Hmm I got Xbox Series X version to but all I do is play Anime on it lol

[junior cargo]

though hm is it actually worth the $70 just for sfse support?

[twin atlas]

I have so much mod work coming. 42 replacers, part two of EAIO..lol that sounds funny. And follower mod work starts tomorrow.

[fallen vector]

yes lol

any news on a cbbe/bodyslide for the game? I know someone was working on something

[dapper galleon]

If I could make a mod that fits my play style it would be the get to the point mod that just lets you skip through stuff you don't want to do and auto competes it for you lol .

It's like that guy on TikTok who takes 10 minutes tiktoks and part 1-100 tiktoks and breaks it down to a less then a minute... That guy is my favorite lol

[fallen vector]

talk about ADD

[sharp lynx]

yea that makes a lot of sense

[fallen vector]

https://tenor.com/view/dogs-gif-8504600

[hollow salmon]

I got a question for everyone how many games do have on you on any platform

[dapper galleon]

I mean I do have it, like in conversations I don't really like talking to people that take forever to get their points açcross. Ill tolerate it but I usually just walk away.

Like you know what your going to say please just consolidate it to a few sentences and let's get on with it.

[hoary lava]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-walk-away-not-happy-michael-scott-gif-11889797

[fallen vector]

tl'dr

[twin atlas]

U mean like total amount of owned games?

[fallen vector]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-why-waste-time-few-word-gif-8100952

[hollow salmon]

yes exactly

[dapper galleon]

I got like 4 games total.

[hollow salmon]

I think I am reaching about 2,594

[dapper galleon]

That's including Pokemon Scarlet on my switch

[fallen vector]

@sharp lynx I plan to get your mod next week lol

[junior cargo]

oh also, question: i found a thing that said if you copy the creation kit to the game pass install Content folder it works with that version right?

[hollow salmon]

That is with steam, GOG, and Epic games and then a few on Xbox

[sharp lynx]

Oh nice! hopefully the update will be out by then

and the two other mods I have

then I can get to quest mods that require boring reading

I joke I'll be makin mechs

[fallen vector]

the TGs Hyla II Mansion Retreat Player Home

[mortal tundra]

i think i'm at about 600 all in between epic/gog/blizz/amazon.... more than I'll EVER get to playing 😄

[dapper galleon]

Question are the buildings in your kids weather proofs, I got the first one and the second one but the first one the mansion has raining coming into it

[hoary lava]

How long did that take you?

[fallen vector]

same lol

[hollow salmon]

What is your first ever video game you played

[sharp lynx]

if there's rain in your hab I dont know what to tell ya, if its listed as a sealed enviornment and you can breath in it it means it shouldn't have rain

[junior cargo]

you know this starfield mods chat right, not a general chat?

[sharp lynx]

I've also never experienced this issue either

[twin atlas]

310

[junior cargo]

probably #off-topic would be best

[sharp lynx]

it has a lot to it 😄 much more than just a house

[dapper galleon]

I'll take a look at it again, it was the Second mansion the one with the pond garden in the front Inwas inside and when it was raining outside the rain animation was also inside the house.

I'll see tommarow if it still doing that

[fallen vector]

i read the description lol

[hollow salmon]

Mine was Autoduel on Commandor 64

[fallen vector]

mine was #off-topic

[sharp lynx]

people read those ! 0-0

[hoary lava]

Sarah out here living up to the name.

[fallen vector]

shocking i know, I didn't want your AiO too much for me. I jsut one want one house lol

[sharp lynx]

I will say out of the thousands of people who've downloaded my house mod literally 2 said it was raining inside, so I think.... it's an "its on your end" issue

[junior cargo]

i find it funny tho that people need to censor the word cockpit in the descriptions of mods for some reason

[sharp lynx]

no the flip side when there was no nav-data in the houses I never heard the end of it

[junior cargo]

if its some kinda thing that blocks it, they should whitelist the word or something

[dapper galleon]

Perhaps, the game does have a lot of Only happens to me type of issues

[fallen vector]

at least till Elianora starts dropping houses lol

[dapper galleon]

That's probably why it's difficult to fix all bugs because they seem to only happen under extremely specific circumstances

[sharp lynx]

Well being a mod author of many mod I can say I constantly see issues, some legit.... some... I have no idea what they're doing to their games

[junior cargo]

probably weird interactions between mods or something

[sharp lynx]

some people just download every mod out there and expect every mod to work all at once

[twin atlas]

I love Eli shes working on the well house now

Or is it they, i forgot to ask

[junior cargo]

is it possible if ck mods have conflicts to edit them? or would the creators of the mods need to resolve the issues?

[fallen vector]

I'm tempted to learn enough to mod two hair styles into the game but i'm also lazy lol

[fallen vector]

my favorite is when people blame either the community patch or the unoffical patch

[sharp lynx]

I downloaded your mod and now my car wont start. It's your mods fault

[mortal tundra]

it's the "edit" that's throwing it off

[mortal tundra]

ahhh... schnikes... left that on the URL, thank you!

erlp.. i'm only an hour late going to bed :S

Night all... time to tackle porting Wartortle's stuff tomorrow

[fallen vector]

night

[dapper galleon]

I like how the Bette Reload Speed mkd says (Broken) but doesn't give in depth explanation of that means the mod itself is broken or broken like it's makes reloading OP

I need to go to bed soon need to get the fun bloodwork done which means I haven't eaten or drank anything for the last 4 hours plus won't get to until after 840 am tommarow yay

Oooh I found a mod that lets you Use transparent Starborn helmets, and another that lets you color them.

It's going to be funny when we get land vehicles, cus you know there is going to be a modder that's just going to turn it into Forza lol... Someone's going to be driving around in a Tacoma on the moon

[junior cargo]

if they do and it's possible to add custom ones with the ck, I'm gonna try to make something like my daily ride, a can-am ryker, motorcycle with 2 wheels in the front and one in the back

[dapper galleon]

I want a Guacamole green Geo Metro lol just drive around the moons with that bad boy lol

[fallen vector]

a trike

[junior cargo]

reverse trike but yeah

[dapper galleon]

Someone getting a Unicycle

[hoary lava]

Not finished, but upper receiver render looks okay.

[junior cargo]

oooh that looks cool

[dapper galleon]

Would anyone be able to make something like this a stand alone peice that can go onto Starborn armor.

I'm talking about the Yellow and blue portions. Want to try a MK look with the Starborn armor

[hoary lava]

Pretty close

[dapper galleon]

Yea that's pretty good.

[hoary lava]

awaiting approval, maybe next week.

[dapper galleon]

Inwas thinking something with the cloth though because I have the color set to dark black on the suit. So Kinda wanted the cloth as a separate peices so I can color that separately.

I did not with the current cape for them but it's too big, and just looks weird, so I was thinking something sleaker a minimalist of a rag but has the whole subzero scorpion vibe

[hoary lava]

Take someone to model it.

[dapper galleon]

Yea I figured as much, I'm trying to think if there is some in-game assets that could be re designed to fit that look like the apparel stuff but just have it operate as armor

[hoary lava]

I haven't dug into apparel yet.

[torpid badger]

does anyone use my mod?
ive been toying with balancing, and wondering if i should increase damage or even change the bolts to a "beam" instead?

particle weapons called particle beam weapons i believe?
https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/details/0bc53d1c-a36b-4611-b453-9105c692c754/DracTech_Weapon_Systems___Personal_Firearms

[sharp lynx]

I need to get back into making armors

[dapper galleon]

I have plenty of ideas if you ever need some inspiration.

[sharp lynx]

I gotta get this ported first

[dapper galleon]

Oh my ... They are sooo Beautiful... I must have them. Can you mix and match or are they one solid peice

[sharp lynx]

those are all modular

that's why there's so many

[dapper galleon]

Not sure what that means

[sharp lynx]

modular means they're mix and match

[dapper galleon]

But the second row 5th on in would be near perfect for the Starborn look Inwas going for for the MK version

I'm going to make my Starborn look like this, sweet I love the mix and match

[sharp lynx]

it comes with 5 base armors

[dapper galleon]

This is what I got so far

[sharp lynx]

not bad

[dapper galleon]

Yup just hoping someone can make the cloth piece into a subzero scorpion style version

[junior cargo]

i need to figure out what new chunks variants I'm gonna be adding

[dapper galleon]

My Darkstar 3 kadama is possibly my favorite weapon

Not sure why but it takes forever to load the lodge, I enter the lodge and it's sooo long just to load that one

[echo pollen]

Try changing up your lo a bit, those ds mods add a lot too the lodge and depending what other mods you use these ds mods may need to be lower in the lo so its files are loaded last over other mods that may affect the lodge section. Im using all the DS mods but community lolz one and have no issues

[dapper galleon]

How far down are they on the load order

[echo pollen]

DSa and DSm i have at the botom 3rth of the lo and all mods that affect gameplay and area's above those 2 ds mods

Like, if you use Legendary Recycler, that one has to go above DSa and DSm as they both deal with how legendary's are being done. Recycler can conflict with DSm and needs to be above it

[dapper galleon]

Dsa go a ove DSm or does it make a difference either way

[echo pollen]

No DSa goes under DSm

While DSm add the most ingame the DSa has the most data behind it as it deals with the whole NG+ system and all 😄

[junior cargo]

kinda looks like the corpus from warframe

[torpid badger]

Hi peeps, levelling weapons, the standard way I believe is every few levels, a multiplier is added.

I seen another way is via multipliers when a skill point is added.

Is there another way, or adding a multiplier every level? That would mean a lot of entries?

[lavish flax]

Looking forward to when you do. They're badass

[lavish flax]

I do. Id say increase damage equating to the va'ruun inflictor tbh. Interested what the beam would look like tho

[torpid badger]

Cool thanks for that.

OK I'll look at increasing the damage. Besides the damage, no other issues?

[limber current]

Those samurai outfits are sooooo sickkkk 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[lavish flax]

Np, and nah none really. Different design maybe but that's more a want than a need and I know that's not exactly easy either so I'm content

[torpid badger]

I'd love to make my own designs for the series. I just don't know how too

[lavish flax]

I bet. Yeah from what I gathered it's pretty difficult to do it unfortunately, even to replace meshes for an already existing weapon

[torpid badger]

If anyone wants to help they are welcome too 😊

[junior cargo]

just wondering, how hard is it to make new ship parts?

[shell pelican]

If I paid for a mod and then I deleted it.Do I have to repay for again to download it a second time?

[analog kraken]

^ If you paid with bethesdabucks, it works sorta lika DLC.

you own it forever and can redownload as needed

[shell pelican]

Ok cool thanks

[analog kraken]

is there a trick to getting proper lighting in the viewcell?

[mortal tundra]

Let SmartDoc cure what ails you!

[solemn plinth]

Anyone else using a MOD by Hijack159 called Harbinger? It’s a ship mod that adds a new ship to be purchased but I can’t find it at any of the ship vendors. Any ideas? And how are Xbox users supposed to get in contact with creators directly?

[mortal tundra]

it is dependent on both Darkstar Astrodynamics and Ship Vendor Framework, do you have both of those installed and above the mod in your load order?

[solemn plinth]

Yes

[mortal tundra]

K,... I got nothin then 😉

My understanding is that SVF adds it to all ship vendors, but it may not be a 100% spawn

[solemn plinth]

Oh well, guess I’ll just disable it. Perhaps he’ll do an update.

[mortal tundra]

It's on the New Atlantis ship vendor

he's updating the description now 🙂

[solemn plinth]

Just checked. It’s not there.

[mortal tundra]

hmmm

[terse coral]

Now that I'm in outpost building mode again, I'm eagerly awating an airlock removal tool 😄

A standard door with an adjustable-height landing would be great on Earth-like planets

[mortal tundra]

The other things -- you have to be at least level 65, and you might have to wait 7 in-game days initially for the ship-vendor to restock

[terse coral]

@solemn plinth Did you check them out on Nexus?

[solemn plinth]

@terse coral not yet.

@mortal tundra I’ll try waiting the 7 days.

[terse coral]

It's possible that the mod exists there and you can send them a message

[mortal tundra]

I know that I do all my stuff as dual releases over on Nexus to make sure there's a forum.. .not everyone does though.

[solemn plinth]

Bethesda’s should add a forum for mods on their Creations page.

[dapper galleon]

Oh sweet heavens good morning and salutations. I am up way too early lol

[mortal tundra]

@solemn plinth https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/10740

He's got forum and bug report are over there.

[solemn plinth]

@mortal tundra Thanks!

[terse coral]

I just went through Nexus and Creations and I'm surprised that no one has created an airlock replacement yet. I guess there's not much call for it then.

[torpid badger]

if there a way in ck2 to see what files are a part of the esp you have open?

[mortal tundra]

kinda

when you are in the selector window, you can see all the "items" in the mod

with the detail window.. is fugly
and then under gameplay you have a script manager, which lists all the PSC's you have -- but it includes the base-game ones if you unpacked them

[torpid badger]

ok great, thank you!

[solemn plinth]

So frustrating. Tried waiting for days. Disabled and enabled the mod and the two it’s depended on and while the New Atlantis ship vendor now has like 20 ships for sale(many I’ve never seen before) non are the Harbinger. Oh well, guess I’ll move on and check back from time to time and perhaps one day it will be there. lol

[mortal tundra]

LOL.. watch for updates too, and make sure you drop a comment on his Nexus page, so he knows to watch for it.

New Port : Take Items Through Unity

https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/edit/fad4576a-6a78-415b-83db-ce91af58639f/Wartortle__39_s_Take_Items_Through_Unity

[mortal tundra]

What level are you?

[limber current]

You are on fire with the ports 💯

[solemn plinth]

@mortal tundra lvl 101

I’m on his discord now.

[mortal tundra]

He made it easy on me!! The source was already there, along with open permissions. I found him on a Nexus based discord, and he basically said do what you want, it's open permission... so.. XBox homies, enjoy!!

[empty furnace]

So I'm up to lol 40. Everytime I fly up to jemison it loads slow and glitchy. Most times I can't even land without crashing. Is this possibly caused by a mod? Or is this a known issue with gameplay. I asked in chat and got different responses. One person said this has been an issue for awhile and the other person has never had that problem. Arrgghhh

[hoary lava]

I have no issues, never had. Hardware issue?

PC? Specs?

[empty furnace]

I'm on xbox.

[hoary lava]

Yeah nevermind.

[empty furnace]

Lol. Okay then.

[hoary lava]

Sounded like a hardware issue if you were running on pc. But, I don't know nothing about console sorry.

[empty furnace]

That's okay. I've gotten one other build to 49 and don't remember this problem. The only difference is with my current run is that I have mods. Thing is - I don't know if I can go back to vanilla and be happy.

[hoary lava]

Are any of those mods visual overhaul? I would start there.

Seems like you're explaining high memory usage in dense locations.

[empty furnace]

That makes sense. I got a few overhauls. Dream home, tg hyla retreat. Heck even the spacestation mod is probly memory intensive...

[safe sorrel]

How many mods are you running, and which Xbox? I play on Xbox, not heavily modded but it can start to struggle if there’s a lot of heavy lifting it’s being asked to do

[empty furnace]

I got and S and about 20 or so mods. Never actually counted them. I'm going to thin em out to my essentials and see if that helps.

[dapper galleon]

So has anyone experienced this, you switched Habs from each side but when you go into your ship part of the Hab that used to be there is still rendering Into the current hab

Ok so my dang game reorganized my load order to a bad one, why does it do that

@twin atlas dear God you outdid yourself again.

The new rugs are amazing. Though the blue one tends to glitch into the floor and can't be moved afterwards

[hoary lava]

How many mods total?

[dapper galleon]

Idk but it's good now saved quit the game reloaded back in fixed it

But I'll see how it does once I get home, I have to go to get blood work so yay. That's two days of fasting cus I wasn't able to get an appointment yesterday for this lol.

That's probably why Inwas in a annoyed mood last night with the my Games performance issues lol

Oooh winaddict added another Decor display, this time book shelves. I have been using his weapon display thing for my Armory. And now with Skully New shower that can fit inside a 1x1 I can now use all the Majiktda Habs and just make a shower room for one

I just need to be able to add Flat Walls to Habs or if they can make those Habs without the large windows

[mortal tundra]

@empty furnace TBF Jemison can get squirrely even without mods -- I had one occasion where I took off, and there was the Jemison starport coming along with me... flying around with the starport.

needless to say Jemison was F'd for the rest of that playthrough.

I have also accidentally taken the Den to Unity, that was fun...

[thick plaza]

https://youtube.com/@crimsonflyboy?si=aiIZvYQWkd6mneFw
This guy does mod reviews I highly suggest we check out his channel

[safe sorrel]

Ok so I need to make the Hopetech interior walls a hair shorter to fit better. A quick question, would you folks rather have a slight gap at the top and have all ship walls mix and match with each other, and fit in all manufactures ship habs, or a snugger fit but not mixable or useable in stroud or Deimos habs?

[terse coral]

@safe sorrel Hey! I built a new outpost this morning and it gave me an opportunity to try out your inner walls and doors. They're great! Now, I'm trying to find a mod that can delete the airlock. I hate those things on Earth-like planets lol.

[safe sorrel]

I’m working on adding a snappable door option so you can have a door instead of an airlock, just not quite figured out how yet

[terse coral]

That's awesome, thank you! I'm looking forward to seeing your stand-alone habs when they're released too.

[safe sorrel]

That’s the next stop once I have these walls how I want them

[terse coral]

Cool. My plan is to build one final base of operations that encompasses everything I need in one secure location.

I have five island locations to choose from now lol

[safe sorrel]

Nice!

[languid fable]

Does anyone have links to guides for building ships in the CK? I'm thinking about doing a few ships that use the Ship Vendor Framework but am somewhat lost with how to do things. Got one ship built in the CK already but have no clue on how to go further.

[mental timber]

I hate when I read cool stuff I wanna try at work

[dapper galleon]

Wait what? I'm lost so I can change the walls of the ship Hab interior to another one?

Kinda confused. Now

[dapper galleon]

Oh interior walls, oh I'm cool with a slight gap if I'm able to use them in stroud and Diemos.

Unless you make two separate sets of them one exclusively for Stroud and Diemos. But I'm still good with gaps as long as they get mostly to the top

Also does Stroud or Diemos have an empty 2x1 that has nothing along the side just flat walls.

If not I guess I can use @safe sorrel future mod to place walls in the Science Hab to have a perfect flat side design

[dapper galleon]

For me I don't like having to many locations, like I want my ship and one solid base.

Right now with some mods I automatically got the Player home. And then I get the penthouse later so that's two separate spots I don't know what to do with. Granted the player home is already decorated automatically.

[terse coral]

In earlier saves, I just ignored the player homes I was granted. Now that I'm done with NG+, I will build one, large base. Once that's done, I will delete all of my other locations.

The island group on Hyla II (where TG's large mansion is located) is a perfect location for a "secret" lair.

[autumn idol]

Hey all! Culmination of my months of tweaking NPCs, finally ESLified and posted on Creations 🙂

https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/details/3aeb6c5d-f8f6-4868-88d5-1158af46c131/Immersive_Leveled_Enemies

Very lightweight, enemy NPC overhaul that includes hand-tweaked enemy leveling, size-variation (particularly for aliens), movement speed, locational damage, and some enemy alien damage tweaks. Many NPC stats tweaked from Vanilla to better scale with leveling.

Already been available in other forms, but this is the first .ESLified, Creation Kit version. An insane amount of time went into this and ensuring that it didn't fall int other potential pitfalls of a leveled universe (bullet sponges or all enemies feeling the same to fight). On Nexus, Royal Arena has a few more features and tweaks, but keeping Creations releases as streamlined as possible for hopefully evergreen compatibility.

[hoary lava]

Typo?

[dapper galleon]

Yea, Wtf I didn't even notice that, I'll edit that

[hoary lava]

Haha. No worries, I could see that being taken wrong and escalating.

[dapper galleon]

I think because when I spell home the K is right under the o so sometimes I hit the K and it autocorrected it to joke

I also need to figure out how to make my keys larger, they are so tiny

I still remember texting someobe if they got the thing but I accidently sent Thong lol

[hoary lava]

I haven't picked up TG hyla yet, but I bet it's absolutely worth it.

Lighting is 🤌

[dapper galleon]

It is but after doing it I uninstalled it just because I didn't plan on using the location at all so, I like using my Darkstar Landing pad as my default landing pad

[terse coral]

@dapper galleon So travel to the island (Andresa's quest) and plunk down a beacon...

[hoary lava]

Rex is right, just build a smaller version.

[dapper galleon]

Nah it's fine plus the la.simg pad Wil be too far from the home

[hoary lava]

You can put landing pad wherever.

[terse coral]

If you have TG's mod and decide the location is too big, just delete the mod after you plunk down a beacon too. TG still gets compensation and you get the island all to yourself...with a few Va'Ruun "buddies".

[dapper galleon]

I want my Darkstar lp where the hyla house pad is at though I'm really picky about certain things.

[terse coral]

Well, I guess you can't please everyone lol. Have at 'er then.

[dapper galleon]

I already have the mod but yea I uninstalled it once I was done.

I don't necessarily want that to be my baseocarion either

My point was more about how I didn't want to use that house. Not necessarily the location itself

[terse coral]

Yep, and we were talking about solving the house issue lol

[dapper galleon]

Yes but your saying remove the house and set up an base there, I don't want to set up a base there, I just also dot want to use the house. And I can set my Darkstar landing pad right next to the house either so It's not really worth the trouble.

[hoary lava]

You could technically... load up CK and edit it to your liking. A lot of resources if you get stuck.

[terse coral]

I put my base on the far side of the island.

Plenty of room for a large pad and all the habs you could want

[dapper galleon]

How far was your landing pad from the house though?

Honestly though not sure why this is even such an in depth discussion over something trivial.

I usually just use the other TG. Mod to build a house right next to my Darkstar landing pad. And that serves me just fine. Lets me pick my location more specifically

[terse coral]

Just trying to help buddy. I'm all done now.

[dapper galleon]

Ugh ok, you take things to personal man, it's not that big of a deal.

It wasn't even really a problem, like I get if it was a game breaking thing, but it wasn't. I wasn't planning on using the home anyways and I'm not going to set up a base near it. So I just uninstall it once I'm done with the mission. Lets me repeat it too on one run as well

[hoary lava]

He's not taking it personal, this discord is for help, he's assuming you needed help. This community is based off that idea.

This is a giant resource pool.

[dapper galleon]

Oh well my bad either way I didn't need help though, if it came across that way my bad but I'm good.

[hoary lava]

No worries, just know that when you post issues here, most will go out of their way to help in any way possible. It's actually the best community I've ever been a part of.

[dapper galleon]

True

[terse coral]

Anyway, what @hoary lava said.

[sharp lynx]

we're all friends here ❤️

[dapper galleon]

Now I get to re decorate my whole ship again yay lol cus my last NG run decided it wanted to crash after each ship remodel lol

[dapper galleon]

I'm some of us are... And some of us are... Super friends... Who fight crime at night dressed in pajamas 😂. Possibly one of the weirdest shows my kid ever watched aka I had to sit there and also watch 😂

[sharp lynx]

sounds like my day job

[dapper galleon]

Honestly I'm almost 38 now and When inse these shows where superheros or cartoon characters fight crime at night and live normalives by day I'm like is all this happening in the same week cus I'd be having heart problems from lack of sleep if I was them. 😂

[sharp lynx]

Speaking of

Update!! on the way!!

[dapper galleon]

https://tenor.com/view/hhgf-gif-25031041

Noice cus that means I can delete all my other outfits mods and use that one.

Does it allow me to color them Separately without other mods as well

[sharp lynx]

yes

cause those are custom, so they come with their own custom everything including skins

but this time I plan on adding a few more armorsets and doing some spicy things with them

[dapper galleon]

Spicy things .. like a Starborn in a borat banana hammock 😂

@sharp lynx Alps has Bethesda Highlighted your mods in any of their post, I don't really follow much. It I know they did like a community highlight of someone else, but seriously your Hyla Mod freaking was epic. I would be surprised that they don't showcase it.

[sharp lynx]

I actually don't know lol

[twin atlas]

Ill look into the blue rug.

[dapper galleon]

So I have the starizon in the recommended Load order, but I don't see the Storage stuff. I see the medical stuff only. So input the cargo stuff under the medical stuff I the load order to see if it pops up. It's sapposed to have its own menu selection

I figured out the starizon cargo issue. Dear God it was at the bottom of decoration..it's so much

@twin atlas Alps not sure if the QOL section is part of the AIO, but I have noticed two items that have this

I'm not sure if they do anything in particular or they are still works in progress

[twin atlas]

QOL isn’t mine

[limber current]

That's a part of better living and that object and the other ones that look like it are to remove rocks/plants/trees when you build an outpost.

[dapper galleon]

Oh nice that's going to come in handy,

[twin atlas]

Cant wait to start my new follower mod. Im excited. Still doing irl work. Today’s been absolutely hilarious going of clients “business “ transactions.

[thick plaza]

Serious question.

[dapper galleon]

Omg the Ship interior walls are now in the game...

[thick plaza]

Why does it take more than 3-5 minutes to load anything in the CK on a high rig?

[dapper galleon]

I can finally hide those framing shelves I don't even use

[thick plaza]

Booting up the CK 5 minutes...Selecting a plugin is about 5 minutes...

Why is this process so daunting

[twin atlas]

Booting up my CK takes like 12sec. And opening my emporium takes bout 3min.

[dapper galleon]

This literally changes how I'm going to. Build inside my Habs now

[thick plaza]

just booting it up takes a few mins for me idk why. my ram is clocked at 6000mhz 64gb 2tb m.2

also i do have the materials extracted. could be why also

[dapper galleon]

@safe sorrel thank you very much

[safe sorrel]

I just finished resizing the “industrial” walls, and added a couple of extra pieces to the Tech set like the window that was missing and a barred wall

In the process of uploading them now

[dapper galleon]

Noice I'll do a reset after it's uploaded

[safe sorrel]

Glad they’ve been helping

[twin atlas]

Did you extract the materials to the same drive as your starfield? May be a dumb question, but i was told this helps load CK load faster.

[thick plaza]

i did but it does the opposite

[dusky escarp]

It's slow because your Windows Defender is scanning every virtual file in the game as it's unpacked from the ba2's into RAM. If you make a DevDrive and set Defender to scan asynchronously, you will get load times in the tens of seconds.

[thick plaza]

wow thanks! i will try this in a minute

[thorny rain]

Anyone know what could possibly cause Npc ships to not render fully? I’ll just see a grav drive and a couple of boosters flying through space. It’s only happening with ships that hail me so far. I figure it’s a load order issue but just wondering if anyone has encountered this before.

[scenic shuttle]

that is called a "bulldozer" there are two a square one and a round one. what they do is remove trees and rocks from your outpost area.

they come from this mod

https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/details/aa6acef7-99e8-44b4-afd0-f668fbf87d8f/Better_Living

[safe sorrel]

The upload is up

[dapper galleon]

https://tenor.com/view/dazed-and-confused-matthew-mc-gif-22598466

[twin atlas]

Im getting an increase in messages asking me to absorb other Authors mods. Is something going on? What would be the reason to do this?

[dapper galleon]

Which one is the tech set?

@mental timber ooooh talking about good ideas when your at work, imagine landing gears that look kinda like the engines from the Shield Hover Ships in avengers. That big floating ship they had. so you djt have to have landing gear touching the ground essentially . That would be crazy. My kids watching the avengers movie and I started to get that idea

[sharp lynx]

@terse coral you busy

Oh hey its inquisitor

[red briar]

They tend to think people can just absorb other people work 😛

[red briar]

Hellooo 😇

[dapper galleon]

Just tell them you ain't Majin Buu lol.

[sharp lynx]

Hope you're doing well

Some people just don't understand or have any comprehension of mod ownership

[red briar]

I am thank you! And you? You are building like Bob the builder 😊🤙

[sharp lynx]

Yes actually, I just finished a new interior set

[twin atlas]

right? i don't even know if merging is possible. Are they asking to decrease mod limit?

[red briar]

Looks amazing!

[red briar]

I dont dare merge anything, now with 3 different esms :/

[terse coral]

@sharp lynx About to have supper. What's up?

Ah, you want me to look at some armor?

[safe sorrel]

The white ones

[sharp lynx]

it is fixed

[terse coral]

Alright, off to dinner then.

[distant stream]

Let's keep things SFW please

[twin atlas]

that also isn't mine..

[dapper galleon]

@twin atlas ok, yea It just kinda threw me off cus I know you added a lot of new portraits and thank god cus Inwas lacking in that for my ships.

[dapper galleon]

In the chat yes, in my ships interior.... We shall see where that goes. Maybe the theater room of my ship

[sharp lynx]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-fail-cat-fail-cheese-challenge-cheese-gif-17748665

[sharp lynx]

starfield tho, I think I fixed my armor set for xbox so I am excited

[dapper galleon]

As am I

[sharp lynx]

archiving is the worst part of modding

[visual swift]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-eat-bite-hamburger-gif-26711880

[hoary lava]

This yours?!

[sharp lynx]

yes

rigged and textured it maself

[hoary lava]

Wow, well it was a good run boys. I'll see myself out.

Haha

[sharp lynx]

😂

[hoary lava]

I want it. What tools did you use? Blender, nifskope?

[sharp lynx]

yep exactly those

It comes with the Hyla II mod 😉

[safe sorrel]

Ha this is the face I pull when faced with American cheese

[sharp lynx]

LOL

[versed atlas]

Are you gonna uploading this on xbox too ?

[narrow isle]

Some of my static objects appear to have this dirt overlay and it appears to be random, how can I prevent it?

[sharp lynx]

where is this placed

those are projected decals

Double-click all of the effect assets and on the bottom there should be a checkmark already checked "Allow permanent projected decals." un-check that box.

[narrow isle]

Its on gagarin.

Is this the terrain itself trying to cover the assets in it? sometimes load a nother world then it disappears

I still want to use decals however only the ones I place.

[sharp lynx]

it is

as far as I know there's no way to stop it if it's terrain cover, you can put a hood over the location to stop it tho

I had the same problem here

[narrow isle]

what do you mean hood?

[twin atlas]

I have another Community project idea!! An overhaul to, dare i say, Immersify the arrest mechanic.

Its bugged me since day one that when "arrested", we just fade to black and then go about our day. Im thinking a space prison, that we are teleported to upon our 2nd arrest (first being the Sysdef Quest)

[mental timber]

You could probably change that if it's a LOC or something I think

I have ice all over my stuff and everything has an ice sound on my sumati poles poi

Or maybe it's the world space I forget

Sumati is life

[hollow salmon]

Good afternoon everyone

how are you doing?

Did they fix Starfield finally I can start a new game finally?

@twin atlas @sharp lynx Did they fix Starfield?

[twin atlas]

Was there an update? Ive not had any issues with the game. Just some CK tech probs.

[hollow salmon]

I do not know I did another full delete and install this morning and it started a new game fine without mods

[dapper galleon]

Soooo I went to check the creations page an dit now says 0 mods.

Keeps saying error loading data

[mental timber]

Ngl playing with mods sounds awful rn

I mean it's fine with a few but

[dapper galleon]

I'm not sure if there was Biased but from what I had read a while back, the game itself was rather unstable even without mods.

But I don't know, really never played vanilla. The idea of not having mods would just have ene not play the game at all, not with how much options I have. Like I seen the vanilla options and they are bland

[mental timber]

This is all TES6 practice anyway

Is it weird to plan ideas for tes6 already cause i am

[twin atlas]

My games never been broken. Played on ultra with early access. And only 1 bug, naked uc guards.

My guess is an update will be in the 2nd week of aug. and dlc drop in Nov.

[mental timber]

Better not be 2nd week I'll be gone for work for 2 weeks no PC

[dapper galleon]

Yea iv been reloading the page and still getting this

In game code files what would Ratings and Lumens mean?

[twin atlas]

From a corporate standpoint thats just my assumption. Skipping July would insinuate a larger change than we expected, and Nov would be a good move logically to make money off those who buy year round and then a dlc sale during black friday/cyber moday and the Christmas sale for the chance of making an increase in profit from holiday sales.

[dapper galleon]

Nope still getting error loading data

It's working now I had to log in which is weird I never had to do that before

[lavish flax]

Nice

[tribal basalt]

I’m also having an issue accessing mods. It’s says there is an error. Does anyone know how long this has been going on for?

[safe sorrel]

Might be a server issue because I’m now having the same problem on FO76

Now outages in the portal though

Ah I think it’s just me and my internet being crappy this afternoon for some reason

[tribal basalt]

Hmm I’m also having issues on my side so I’m not sure what is going on. Hopefully they are aware of it and are working on it

[pastel pulsar]

Oh nice, so its not just me

[jolly sequoia]

Yeah creations is not working for me

[solemn plinth]

Looks like creations is down.

[solemn plinth]

That’s what i”m getting

[fierce ridge]

Same I’m getting this as well

[scenic shuttle]

well when this happened on fallout it was usually a sign they were working on somthing to do with mods. like adding things to the Creation Club

[solemn plinth]

Well, hopefully that’s what’s happening.

[fierce ridge]

Guess we’ll have to wait then lol

[plain ember]

Yeah, same's happening here. Can only hope they finish it up soon

[scenic shuttle]

[sharp lynx]

Sorry english translation, roof

welcome back

i mean with the flying lodge same thing right

[sharp lynx]

wot?

[mental timber]

hood/roof

[sharp lynx]

you know I totally forget I even made that mod XD

a whole 20 people downloaded that

[mental timber]

its like Zathura lmao

https://tenor.com/view/minor-inconvenience-inconvenience-zathura-za-zath-gif-10086805298916684274

[sharp lynx]

Yes that is perfect

[mental timber]

creations loaded for me

[sharp lynx]

same

and I can see in my analytics a lot of people are on

[mental timber]

but no update sadge

[dapper galleon]

@twin atlas behold.... My throne

[fierce ridge]

Is creations working again? I couldn’t load it up

[dapper galleon]

Inwas getting this earlier but I had to log in for it to show anything

When I log in this is what it shows so not sure how up to date this is

[fierce ridge]

I’m still getting the same create an account blah blah screen when I load up creations or mods

[twin atlas]

the new shower work good on ships?

[dapper galleon]

https://tenor.com/view/pacha-perfect-emperors-new-groove-very-good-gif-16980073484503350222

[twin atlas]

yay

[dapper galleon]

@twin atlas Had a question with the Ship wall tech door 2, is it not supposed to snap this close or am I doing something wrong.

[twin atlas]

Not my mod.

[dapper galleon]

Wait the interior ship walls one isn't yours, I thought it was

Oh wait my bad, @safe sorrel I meant that question for you

Still came out pretty good though

[fierce ridge]

Does anybody know if any modders are working on some more old earth weapon mods 👀

Feel like we need more

[sharp lynx]

I agree

[regal wasp]

hey asking around and hoping to get some help, does anyone have the console commands for changing an objects xyz and rotation?

[white holly]

@mental timber I'm surprised ne1 remembers zathura

[mental timber]

lol i remember seeing it in theatres

i was like 12

[strong oak]

Yeah Bethesda still pouring reports of failed Creations logins. Most are Xbox. But I am not seeing any Actions on Bethesda sites for this.

[fierce ridge]

I’m not surprised

[white holly]

@mental timber me too I can't remember much about zathura or when it came out but I'm 28 now & it was ages ago, jumanji was the precursor to that film

I didn't mind jumanji but I liked zathura better

[strong oak]

Yep - I thought Zathura was a waste of money to see, Jumanji was a numerous repeat must see for me.

[white holly]

@strong oak I'm more a sci-fi person so zathura basically was my version of jumanji

[strong oak]

I saw every Star Trek movie. They still entertain me. I still like the tribbles - cheap laugh - from TV series.

[cerulean matrix]

Is the Starfield servers down? Can't acess mods

[mental timber]

theyre having problems yeah

[twin atlas]

@autumn idol where does it explain the chargen export as NPC? Im only getting .JSON even with update.

[strong oak]

Yes read above. Creations issue.

[safe sorrel]

So the key to this is the “collision cheater” under the filler pieces, if you put it just on the edge of one of those, you can rug glitch it much closer. It’s still tricky, but this one will fit much better than the hopetech curved ones (currently editing a video for this mod at the moment)

That’s how I got this wall to hug so closely

Here’s a clip of what I mean

[thick plaza]

mod idea: kick NPCs off the workbenches just like how you could in fallout 4

[thick plaza]

niceeee i think u tagged the wrong person tho lol

[dapper galleon]

Wait where are those small pieces at. I haven't seen them in my mod

[safe sorrel]

I did indeed

They’re in filler pieces just bellow the last outpost hab wall set and before the ship ones

[dapper galleon]

I'm making my Armory look like something out of John wick lol, I use the clear walls to have decor behind while I have guns eventually mounted in front of it

Ok I'll take a look I backed out deleted and resownloaded just Incase the update you put didn't upload yet

Oooh if this works I'ma have a clean looking ship.

[mental timber]

what does NOCLUTTER mean and why wouldnt i clutter with runners rush

[dapper galleon]

I'm still lost lol so I attach one to the thing then attach another one. But when I pull it off only the wall piece is there not the extra thing it doesn't dupe it

Nevermind I got it, it's rather difficult with a controller lol

[safe sorrel]

Just attach the wall piece to the thing, then pick up the thing to place the wall piece close

Ha I use a controller too, but have a special set up just for building that’s not as twitchy as the set up I play with

[sharp lynx]

I believe NoClutter might be meaning it lacks a havok/physics I could be wrong I am a little dumbn

[dapper galleon]

What do you recommend I use for the edge of the Hab for Stroud where the entrance is at, on the fore and Aft part

[safe sorrel]

Oh! Maybe it’s items that are kept out of the random clutter pool, like the bits and pieces that randomly spawn on table tops etc at various location

Like you might find an orange, but won’t find velocity

[safe sorrel]

I can’t quite remember what those parts look like

[dapper galleon]

Can anyone make a mod to silence the high pitch frequency when pulling up the scanner? Xbox/all.

[sharp lynx]

it could be that!

I just noticed that say if I have a bucket, then a bucket marked with noclutter it wont be moveable

[mental timber]

muh fps

[sharp lynx]

why does this look really creepy

lol

[terse coral]

...and no key to unlock lol

[sharp lynx]

My house is better

it comes with assorted fish

[mental timber]

its gonna be just a lil creepy

[terse coral]

I agree, but it's sooooo much real estate to decorate. I'm pretty overwhelmed thinking about that. I'm eagerly awaiting your next drop though.

[mental timber]

cries in POI cluttering

[sharp lynx]

it's literally the same thing with 4 extra rooms

[terse coral]

I just want a modern crash pad lair that is already tastefully appointed so I can kick off my shoes and say ahhhhhhhh at the end of a long day of bounty hunting

[sharp lynx]

at least for the topside mansion

makes sense

I need to stop making these anyway XD, should just switch to POIs

[mental timber]

i just need to learn how to do LOD i think if i wanna make them really big

right now im just sticking to a medium-ish size building

[terse coral]

I just built a new outpost on a frozen moon with an awesome view of a close by ringed gas giant. It literally took me five minutes to decorate (added security systems, artwork and some screens) and I was done. I used DownfallNemesis' Paradiso Cabin.

[mortal tundra]

oohh.. now i have to go fix my contentcatalog and see if they fixed the in-game library sync issue!

[sharp lynx]

Yea, no more house mods for me then lol. I don't wanna make a mod people just play and then toss, this is good feedback!

[sharp lynx]

oh?

[terse coral]

I really loved exploring the island and I appreciate that it must have taken an incredible amount of work to build all of that. In the end though, it was too much real estate for me to consider decorating all of it. I'm finding now that smaller locations are more appealing to me. I did fully deck out your dream home a few weeks ago and than I lost most of it when Skully updated their mod unfortunately.

[sharp lynx]

Oh totally, I see the common consensus is place too big, fun to explore, went somewhere else.

[mental timber]

so i did the thing i read marking as full LOD and it shows up on local

[sharp lynx]

if that's gonna be how it's gonna be I'll just make POIs

[mental timber]

so now i get to go manually do that to all my walls

[sharp lynx]

then I can make really big places and people can explore them and have all the fun

[terse coral]

Your smaller houses are pretty sweet though

[mental timber]

theirs gotta be a way to edit all refs that are the same at once

[twin atlas]

I for one love the Hyla II house.

[sharp lynx]

It's good for folks who want a super-large space for sure, but I'm seeing a hot mix of they want that and also want it decorated and various other assortments of what have you.

it's numbers are doing fine tho

So, maybe it's not too bad

[sharp lynx]

Ah yes there is that one

I'm pretty happy with how it turned out tho

[terse coral]

Actually, I've used your home mods more than anyone else since modding on Xbox was a thing lol. I have five island ouposts on various planets now and one on top of a mountain.

and the original at the Dauntless crash site

[sharp lynx]

Don't get me wrong I'm not complaining 😄

you also got the freedom to do as you please, I just enjoy the feedback and wanna spend my time tactically and make the stuff I wanna make but aligned with what people would really enjoy

so we all win

[dapper galleon]

@safe sorrel my armory, I'm thinking about removing the Stuff behind the glass and replacing it with all the old earth weapons.ike on full of shotguns one full of Aka another with rifles and pistols. It not sure yet

[torpid badger]

Hi pees, sorry to interupt

i have an issue where one of my mods will not delete items

some of those items i think are stuck to another mod and the other mod is acting as a master

is there a way to clean the mod to get rid of the unwanted items and unlink it from the master?

[regal wasp]

can you remove the rug after glitching it in?

[dapper galleon]

I think a mod got removed, it was the one that changed the signs, posters and paintings to more realistic ones

It's not even in my load order anymore

[sharp lynx]

run the console command, click on the rug, then type disable

Save before doing that!!

[regal wasp]

okay so disabling the rug wont cause problems got it

[dapper galleon]

I found it, it's the Starfeild Billboard and posters I went ahead and doubt it at the top of my load order so it doesn't stop working hopefully that doesn't break thing s

If it keeps disappearing I'll just delete it

[mental timber]

remind me to mark everything i want on local map as full LOD first omg

[sharp lynx]

you could also make it an instance static or at the least an instance then mark that as full LOD

[dapper galleon]

I think I figured out why it disappeared and I had to reload it. The mantis picture is missing now

[mental timber]

my workflow will be a lot better the second time around lol

[sharp lynx]

our literal battle cry

[mental timber]

thanks reddit

[safe sorrel]

I really love how you used the glass in front of those recessed walls to turn them into display cases, it looks really badass

[dapper galleon]

Thank you

[safe sorrel]

Sadly not, I can add some more colors to make them aside to disguise. You might be able to put the wall pieces covering more of the micro rug so there’s less sticking out, it should also get covered up by other walls added after the glitched on one

[regal wasp]

no worries thanks for the reply though : )

we really need to get a build in red mod going for starfield for stuff like this lol

[safe sorrel]

For real, I keep trying to find a way to alter collision for the wall edges so that they can be clipped into other walls a little as well as each other

Not come close to figuring it out yet, but gonna keep trying

[mental timber]

almost want to write a message in trees now on the edge and add them to local map

you could do so much goofy stuff with this map

[mortal tundra]

welp, no.. no luck with the content catalog... still waaaaay too many entries in in-game....

WIP mods still unreachable

@sharp lynx For me, my modlist is dependent on what i'm doing with the particular toon (I have 6.. I have a problem 😉

NG0 is a completionist run, so I'll have nearly everything enabled

NG1-9 is just turbo mode to get powers, get to masada, and get out

NG10 is another completionist

I've just finished completionist on 1/6 NG10, and just passed unity to reset for 4 of them, and then 2 are in first run -- one i run as close to vanilla as I can stand (you can pry starui out of my cold dead fingers) then the other is one i just reset mostly to play around with some gamestart mods .. all in prep for new expansion.

so in NG1-9, i'm unlodaing nearly everything that doesn't make go mo fast...

[sharp lynx]

interesting

[mortal tundra]

There's no "right way to play" My beachfront outpost has your dreamhouse from first pack, and I've unlocked your second one twice so far 🙂

[sharp lynx]

Noted!

I for sure think the outpost packs are the way to go.

[mortal tundra]

They are well appreciated by most! My outpost tweaks reflect how I play.. get in, set up efficient.. i usually only have 3 buildings in an outpost -- the darkstar terminus, a hex hab and technically it's still kind of a building -- an airlock

the rest is all harvester/builder or storage... with notable exceptions where I go "ooooo this'd be a purty place to hang sometimes"

[sharp lynx]

Indeed, with all this data I think if I was to go the house route it's gonna be outpost habs and not hard locations.

[mortal tundra]

Now super custom habs... I could Really get behind... like the guy who did the paradiso cabin as a hab... very clever

[sharp lynx]

Hard locations, I'll just stick to making new Dungeons for people to do with quests and writing.

[torpid badger]

dream house/vlads / outpost habs is how i do it, so i can build little outposts around it

[mortal tundra]

But also TBF, I really liked what you did with Galactic, building new tech, the o2 generator etc.. made me spend waaayyy more time in an outpost than normal!

man fn awesome..

[sharp lynx]

that's next after this

[sharp lynx]

I think I'm going to cap this one at a smaller number this time so it's not so beefy

[mortal tundra]

I think that screenshot's right on the money

4 of em, maybe charge 200?

[sharp lynx]

well..... there's 10 atm

[mortal tundra]

sounds like 3 mods to me.. and tjen release the magapack later 🙂

[sharp lynx]

10 is pretty small for me considering my first one has 35

Once I finish the other unfinished ones I have logged it'll be at 13 and I think that's the perfect number

this is good I think I have a good idea of what next months plan is gonna be

[dapper galleon]

@sharp lynx how goes the Starborn armors?

[sharp lynx]

wont be starting that until I'm done with Volume II

[dapper galleon]

Ok

[sharp lynx]

which I am pretty much close to done

so soon

[dapper galleon]

Game crashed an dI lost a whole hour of Progress how did the game now save anything in that hour

[tacit tapir]

It doesn't look so bad in VR.

[stray cloak]

Hey guys was wondering if anyone knows if XilaMonstrr’s Hair Redone and Zone79’s Hair and Beard mods are compatible together. Thanks.

[twin atlas]

Anyone else crave weird things when modding?

[sharp lynx]

probably, they're most likely custom

[mental timber]

yeah the wiki

[summer plank]

ice cream...

[twin atlas]

like for real, digging inside the CK got me wanting General Tso chicken and Lo Mein.

[summer plank]

https://tenor.com/view/eating-starving-gif-26035414

[sharp lynx]

can relate, have had a steady diet of street chalupas

[safe sorrel]

I was craving mapo tofu today so you might be on to something

[hollow salmon]

Was there an update with creations?

[summer plank]

could be just my steam 😅 verifying... (its my AMD driver nvm) 💀

[hollow salmon]

Well I notice that everything is going smoothly now including the game itself with out any issues which is awesome because for the past 4 I couldn't play the game on my PC

the past 4 days I mean

[summer plank]

maybe mods?

[hollow salmon]

nope it wouldn't even the play the game even with no mods at all

[summer plank]

gpu drivers? windows update?

[hollow salmon]

yea I went through everything and all my drivers was up to date

but couldn't start a new game at all

So I deleted the game last night completely because wasn't going to play it anymore

[summer plank]

pc ? Verified files on steam? re-install the game? try another SSd ?

[hollow salmon]

Then I saw they were going to do an update to the creations on Bethsda website because they where having issues with it so I reinstalled it on MY PC

this morning I did the install

now playing the game with new start and no issues whats so ever

I saw alot people where having issues with the game over the past week on reddit and steam

Only ones that where not having a issue with was people on the Xbox platform

[summer plank]

could be mod conflicts? usually when you have too much mods it does mess something up....

[hollow salmon]

PC do not have a limit like Xbox do

In the past I had around 120 mods installed and had no issues but they came out with a new patch in early July and I think that is when things started to break down

[twin atlas]

Ya know who i wanna do a playthrough as?

[hollow salmon]

Sarah

[twin atlas]

https://tenor.com/view/chris-tucker-fifth-element-oooooh-gif-12032453

[hollow salmon]

lol ok didn't see that coming but ya

loved that movie by the way although lot of people didn't

[twin atlas]

Id spend the whole game hiding from bullets while my companion does the work. Sarah! Sarah! OMG sawah!

[sharp lynx]

[dapper galleon]

@twin atlas @safe sorrel took a bit of Inspiration from John wick for the armory. Still need to fill it with plenty of guns but that's what I need to go loot some bodies

[summer plank]

makes me wanna watch 5th element now... 😅

[twin atlas]

Id have him as the adoring fan. Lol

[hollow salmon]

@twin atlas hey guess what my game is finally working again

[twin atlas]

Sweet

[sharp lynx]

building a house with a landing pad

[twin atlas]

How difficult is the terrain building?

[hollow salmon]

yea they must of done some kind of upgrade last night because e I can start a new game and add creations and play it with out no issues also I am surprised that it is running so smooth no issues like freezing during the game too

@twin atlas also what happened to you Sarah refresh mod it is not in creations anymore

[hollow salmon]

Yea I am in creations now it is not there for PC when I look under you

must be only for Xbox

[twin atlas]

Its not under my name

[hollow salmon]

On the PC you can look it under the Author and it has everything that you did for creations

all your other stuff is there

[twin atlas]

Did you look for barkatzombies?

[hollow salmon]

nope

is it under different author for that mod?

[twin atlas]

It was uploaded with the wrong account and then bethnet support merged the two accounts. So its the only mod with a different username

[hollow salmon]

what did you do on kid's stuff apartment

[twin atlas]

I added a decor panel and disabled the players room decor. Some items refused to disable. It was a quick request to learn CK homes

[hollow salmon]

is the water=cooled miner's outfit any good?

[twin atlas]

Haven’t used it myself. Watched some reviews. Looks decent, not my taste.

[hollow salmon]

it is hard to find some clothing's that give you bonuses in both physical and hazard area so when I saw that wondering what the stats are on it and if it worth the 300 points

or 400 points

[twin atlas]

https://youtu.be/TXLP3nuGDJg?si=CxyDQWf9VKKIQJjD

He shows the stats

[eager ether]

My only real gripe with this mod is you can’t craft it and it’s a stand alone

For immursion sakes if you build a mining outpost having them with this on could /would add more immursion

[hollow salmon]

ok let me look at it

[twin atlas]

Agree.

[hollow salmon]

ok that is a very dumb suit it is not even watered-cooled

no thermas hazard to it for mining

ok totaly not worth the 400

[eager ether]

I like it personally more cosmetic immursion purposes but 💁🏼 no not worth 400

The crimson fleet skin for armour are 100 and it’s worth more and get more for the 400 varient 💁🏼

[hollow salmon]

yea I got that skin and including the other skins for 100 which is worth it

[eager ether]

Oh absolutely and the new Va’ruun skin to me is worth it multiple skins for the varuun weapons 👌🏻

[hollow salmon]

yea I saw that not sure if I am going to get it since I do not use those weapons for my character

[twin atlas]

I haven’t been on creations in a bit. TG dropped Hyla II and i rushed to get it.

[hollow salmon]

ohh the player house one

[eager ether]

I mean if a varuun version of the uc armour would arrive 👀👀👀

Then I’ll be ninja throwing money at it

[hollow salmon]

I wished Bethsda would of came out skins at the time the game was released, but

@twin atlas I saw you fixed the shower for the habs

[eager ether]

That was never gonna happen unfortunately but for all purposes

Since starfield didn’t win any game awards (the ms one don’t count )

They have indeed set sights on improving overall with there games

And mods that have come up since 👌🏻

[twin atlas]

I hope it works for everyone

[hollow salmon]

I will try it out later on let you know ok

[eager ether]

Shower in habs ? What now have I missed something here 👀

[hollow salmon]

Are you coming out with anything else

[twin atlas]

Several projects in the works

[hollow salmon]

I wish there was a Sarah with long curly hair mod

[eager ether]

Use npc changer gun 👌🏻

With hair mods obviously

[twin atlas]

If a fix for bald head is ever figured out, all 42 of my replaces could see the light of day. Lol

[hollow salmon]

lol

[twin atlas]

Im working on my first follower atm

[hollow salmon]

I was wondering is their a fix for changing the campions suits and clothes I know you can give them stuff but they do not change their suits or clothes because I tried

[twin atlas]

You give them the item and then click equip

[hollow salmon]

huh?

I never saw equip button on them?

[twin atlas]

Yup. Open their inventory and look at bottom right of screen.

[hollow salmon]

lol

[twin atlas]

It will say equip.

[hollow salmon]

I been playing this freaking time and never saw it lol

[twin atlas]

It will show your own character though weirdly.

[sly ocean]

Unless you use a mod for that.

[hollow salmon]

yea I saw their is mod to fix that though

[sly ocean]

https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/details/e3bf41b6-ef86-4325-9386-d0e0a7740006/Proper_Companion_Previews

[twin atlas]

People still haven’t learned a-lot of stuff. Like moving items on axis when placing by hand.

[twin atlas]

I believe i use this.

[hollow salmon]

actually that is the first I learn in outpost

[sly ocean]

Don't feel bad; there are still things I learn after hundreds of hours that seem obvious now. I only recently learned you can hold...RB I think (on XBox) in the map to show all star names.

[twin atlas]

Did you know you can pull sarahs hair?

[sly ocean]

Let's keep this SFW.

lol, kidding. What do you mean?

[hollow salmon]

nope

[twin atlas]

Walk up to sarah and act as if her hair is a moveable static, ie. junk item. You can yank her hair.

[sly ocean]

Hah, I never tried that. Does her head move too?

[twin atlas]

Yup

[sly ocean]

Wow. This gives me all kind of mod ideas 😁

[hollow salmon]

I am still waiting for a mod script to take over abandoned facility as outpost

[sly ocean]

I wonder if we could force-equip a lasso onto enemy torsos and then toss them around.

[hollow salmon]

@sly ocean lol right

[twin atlas]

https://tenor.com/view/cowboy-chase-lasso-gif-18338291

[sly ocean]

Also, I imagine the telekinesis functionality still exists from Skyrim (there are definitely still references to it). That may allow you to do even more with a lasso-like feature. Could be fun.

[hollow salmon]

or better yet use it for capturing prisoners?

[eager ether]

Half time that doesn’t work for me shame really

[twin atlas]

Lol hog tie criminals

I have so many ideas and not the resources to make them all.

[sly ocean]

I have noticed certain situations in which it doesn't work as well. I think switching back and forth between you and a companion in various item categories, and/or with ship inventory present, triggers that. But, most of the time it works for me.

[autumn idol]

Due to how POI works that's gonna be impossible

[hollow salmon]

what for a script to be used like for taking over a ship when you board it?

[dapper galleon]

Heading to bed, it did some finalization for my ship

[twin atlas]

How do you convert chargen to CK? I updated but cant seem to open it into CK

[autumn idol]

let me check RQ

[west hollow]

I m starting the armor 😁

[eager ether]

How do you add the glow eyes or glow in general to armour ?

[west hollow]

I m using the ship_emissive.mat to the mesh

[eager ether]

Hmm interesting thanks I’ll give it a go

Trying make a varuun uniform and wanted a glow (green ) on parts it was driving me nuts

[west hollow]

Just rename the mat, edit with visual studio, change all name occurrence bu the name of your personal texture

And edit the nif

[strong oak]

And the new nifscope updated. Yay

[eager ether]

🫡 and yeah the nifty is gonna be a pain in my butt I think ,
it’s been while since i actually did modding solo so trying to learn how to ride the bike again so to speak

[west hollow]

just do this, clic on the line and make edit string index

[autumn idol]

click on save preset and you should see NPC beside confirm

click that and head to your data folder and you will see the .npc
