There are some issues that make it difficult to look good.

Main one is if a weapon has an offset or the player is sprinting it will move the mesh that attaches to the 1st person camera to give that effect. Not a big deal for a uniform glass texture but it means you can't get the inside of helmet itself to obscure parts of the screen.

The other issue it may or may not work properly on ultrawide displays which I know is a very small minority of users but it is something that should be kept in mind.

I wanted to do an overlay for the thing I'm working on that would have parts of the screen be very slightly blurred with a noticeable edge around what would be the parts of the helmet that are obscured using some kind of built in camera to reveal via a large display on the inside but those problems prevented that from happening.

[toxic pike]

Hey is anyone playing with these three crime mods? I'm about to launch a playthrough with all three I think, I'm debating load order with myself, or whether its too much, but they all sound so good. It'll be my first stealthy/roguey/thieving/criminal type playthrough.

[jolly torrent]

I just play with the Crime Overhaul one.

[tender stump]

it worked, so I released it. I was touching something I shouldn't have with syber's loot crate, and created the possibility of conflict. Now I use an OnLoad event to inject the weapon into the loot crate.

[mental estuary]

So anyone heard any rumors about a possible adoption/hearthfire mod lately?

[jolly torrent]

Lol. Wow

[jolly torrent]

Nope. I wish.

[mental estuary]

Maybe one day

[jolly torrent]

That’s what I have to keep telling myself. Especially about the animation tools.

Now I have to start a new dam game because of some dumb bug that turns every major faction against me for some odd reason?!? I wish Beth would fix stupid things like this. I’m pretty sure this would have been spotted in QA testing.

[mental estuary]

i mean unless it occured under very specific circumstances

[mental estuary]

You'd think they gave us parents why not let us have a family yknow even if we end up going for the milk in the unity

[jolly torrent]

Lol. I agree. I wish there was a mod that allowed us to take Cora with us a lá Ripley and Newt in Aliens.

[mental estuary]

She'd have so much fun. There is teen cora but idk her face feels a bit off to me

Otherwise its the closest someone's gotten

[sharp lynx]

Ben

[jolly torrent]

Yeah, that teen Cora mod makes her look VERY odd. Lol

[mental estuary]

it's a good companion mod basic stuff but it does feel off, maybe it's the nose ring

[jolly torrent]

I think the nose ring is cool, but she looks 80 years old.

Btw, I reloaded my save and nobody is hostile. Smh. This game is so weird.

[mystic fox]

I created an island location in the ck but there is a sqaure around my new location with no water does anybody know how to fix this?

[sharp lynx]

https://tenor.com/view/futurama-ocean-ice-drop-ice-cube-ice-drop-ocean-gif-10390220211904082219

[jolly torrent]

Thank you for your mods, btw.

[icy bramble]

@mystic fox did an amazing job with the latest creations.

[mystic fox]

That’s great to hear I love making them

[mystic fox]

I finally added everything I wished was in the game when I originally played it but through making those creations I have gotten ideas for more

[tender stump]

Just assign Sam to your outpost. Cora will stay on your ship.

[sharp lynx]

Assign Sam to airlock

[tender stump]

Then who will shovel Ashta poop

[marsh grotto]

https://tenor.com/view/cats-gif-10758119

[subtle jungle]

This is odd. I haven't encountered this bug at all. Have you checked any Bounty terminals to see if you have outstanding bounties? Did you recently get into any space fights that may have had faction ships in the area you might have accidentally fired on?

[jolly torrent]

Yes

[jolly torrent]

I actually have a mod that blocks all bounty points on me, but I can check. I reloaded to an earlier save and everything is working fine. That’s the weird part.

[subtle jungle]

Could be just be a hiccup with the Bounty Mod you have. Cause I tried some searching around and I didn't find anyone having that issue without bounties in vanilla. Most folks who had similar issues found they had outstanding bounties and could just pay off the bounty and all was good.

So the game may have flagged you but the mod was blocking acknowledgement? Dunno. I'm glad reloading to an earlier save worked!

[jolly torrent]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HdHjWygG0Ss&pp=ygUkQ3liZXJwdW5rIDIwNzcgZmxhdGxhbmRlciB3b21hbiBzbGFn

How I wish this song could be incorporated into this game so bad.

[jolly torrent]

Thanks for looking into it, but it’s a bug on Beth’s end, my guy. I reloaded an earlier save. No issues. Went from NA to Akila and zero problems. It’s a bug on them. I have a mod that gives me zero bounty.

[tender stump]

It's reasonable that it might be a bug on their end. But it is important to note that it's not happening to very many people, which is a factor in QA not having caught it.

[obtuse stag]

Just because you reloaded an earlier save and it worked doesn't mean its a bug on bethesda's end. Much like game bugs mod bugs can also be really wonky and fixed with a reload sometimes or happen super inconsistently

[jolly torrent]

There’s a Reddit thread about it. That’s how I was able to somewhat get around the issue. I doubt it’s a permanent fix, though. So I may just have to restart my game. It happens, it just doesn’t happen often to mass amounts of players.

I will have to check. I’m not even sure how I got a bounty in the first place. lol. All I do is kill enemy factions like Spacers and Crimson Fleet.

[sleek cliff]

Let’s focus in here, let’s get a little focus in here now.

When are we getting some expedition 33 mods?

[tender stump]

When EvieMae makes 32 more Starfield mods with "expedition" in the title.

[lyric finch]

Coe gotta go

[mystic fox]

why do we hate Sam, or do we just want to orphan children

[neat crow]

Both?

[sleek cliff]

He’s the worst father in the settled systems

And I can prove it mathematically.

[sleek cliff]

[tender stump]

Sam is the worst father, but my biggest problem with him is if I assign him anywhere but the Lodge, his kid stays on my ship. She should be where he is.

[sleek cliff]

It’s why I let the hunter get him most runs.

[tender stump]

Does he get the brat too?

[sleek cliff]

So that Cora will grow up in a safe environment.

[sleek cliff]

Nope.

[tender stump]

Mod idea: if Sam is killed, Cora is just removed from the game entirely and we all assume she was placed in foster care. Maybe with Bobby's family.

[sleek cliff]

I like this idea, a slate shows up in your room from her afterwards stating how much she hates and blames you for Sam’s death, hinting she’ll become Starborn Cora

[mystic fox]

I love Sam as a character but him and Lillian are terrible parents I think it might be beneficial for her to stay with Mr coe

[slim sun]

What happens to her currently then, does she go back to the Lodge after Sam dies? Or to her grandfather's in Akila City?

[tender stump]

I have never actually had Sam die. I lost Sarah on my first universe, and every time since I have carefully arranged for Andreja to go.

[slim sun]

I've allowed Sam to die when testing, but haven't played on past that. Cora really isn't happy with you, I'm surprised she sticks around.

[ionic verge]

I think she goes to live with her mom.

[tender stump]

that explains why she becomes twisted and violent

[mystic fox]

Whenever I’m traveling with Sam coe and I die I’m always thinking like my character would not be remembered well if i started a space fight with a child on board and died, like this kid died because I cheaped out on a grab drive and couldn’t escape.

[ionic verge]

I got an alt NG where Cora was Starborn. She was hostile, had to put her down. I did find a slate from Sam to her, telling her not to blame other for his death. I might be remembering the slate message wrong.

[jolly torrent]

This.

[jolly torrent]

Question for you, sir.

[sleek cliff]

Boo Friggin’ Hoo

[slim sun]

If you unmask Starborn Cora, it's that one Terrabrew/Chunks vendor you see all over the place. I like to think they're all actually Starborn Cora undercover, keeping tabs on you...

[slim sun]

Ask away 👍

[sleek cliff]

Damn, BGS was too lazy to make an adult Cora model

[jolly torrent]

Is there a smoking animation in the game or do people not smoke in the future? Lol

I’m over here dyin laughing

[slim sun]

To be fair you'd never see it anyway. All unnamed enemy Starborn (and the guards on Va'ruun'kai) just use the default male and female model as you never see them. The female guards don't even have lipsync in fact.

[sleek cliff]

Yeah, True.

[slim sun]

I've not found one, unfortunately.

[sleek cliff]

I’m just feeling let DOWN by BGS these days.

[jolly torrent]

Dang it.

How the hell is Cora and the Terra Brew vendor one and the same?!? TF Bethesda?!?

[sleek cliff]

I mean, their communication has been awful.

[jolly torrent]

It really has been. But at this point, they added insult to injury by having the EXACT same model of the TerraBrew vendor being adult Starborn Cora. Like, WTH?!?

Un-freakin-believable.

Why would they do that?!?! Were they that rushed?!?

It makes no sense whatsoever.

[slim sun]

Yeah, I'm not exactly sure why some NPCs get custom appearances and others don't. Alex Vong and Agent No1 both have custom faces despite you not being able to see either of them without mods/console commands. And those named miners you see for like 5 seconds at the very start of the game before they despawn also have them, pretty good ones actually.

[mystic fox]

Guys I dont think its that deep

[sharp lynx]

That's what they want you to think

[jolly torrent]

Lol. Tank

[mystic fox]

I used most of these miners as templates for my enemy faces variety mod, I’ll probably get around to using more of them when I add to the spaceship crew and settlers

[sleek cliff]

There’s a joke there.

[icy bramble]

Yes!

[icy bramble]

Man, I would sell my soul for this

https://tenor.com/view/kratos-ares-destroy-my-enemies-and-my-life-is-yours-gif-7965707800203237625

To fix the Hopetown clones

[mystic fox]

Haha no need it’s on the way after my next mod I’m going to jump back to that one, I am going to add 20 new settler/crew faces 10male 10 female and hopefully fix the hopetown clones, no promise there I know how to dice it but not how to keep the voices so right now the new faces guards don’t speak.

[icy bramble]

Ohhhh man ❤️

[mystic fox]

Which is why I haven’t updated that mod with the fix yet

[outer mica]

My next jump through Unity, this little psycho wanted to kill me for her father’s death.. I never used him as a companion, too much baggage. The adoring fan usually, but lately Torin from Watchtower mod..

[jolly torrent]

Wassup dude.

[sleek cliff]

Funny thing is, I genuinely dislike Cora.

[jolly torrent]

She looks downright psychotic in that picture. Lol. You can see the bloodlust in her eyes.

I wish a modder would create a mod that allows her to be kidnapped and held for ransom by the Crimson Fleet as revenge when you’re away from your ship and you have the option to rescue her or not. If you do decide to rescue her, she becomes a companion in that mission only when you have to fight your way out.

I’m still laughing that adult Cora made a career at futuristic Space Starbucks, but moonlights as a Starborn assassin. 😂 😂

Really, Bethesda?!?!?!!???

[jolly torrent]

🤣 this made me laugh just as much as “Healthy Beowulf”

Just laziness on both parties. Smh

[tender stump]

any time spent making a custom asset people won't see is time not spent making a custom asset people will see.

[neat crow]

Why bother giving her a custom face if the player is never meant to see it

that's just wasting time and resources

[sleek cliff]

Fingers Crossed for VIGILANCE today

If we get it today, I might be gone for 1 to 2 whole HOURS

[untold field]

😮 Crazy

[sleek cliff]

[jolly torrent]

Oh so you aren’t supposed to see her, so they just used another asset in her place?

Either way I still find it hilarious.

[neat crow]

yeah, just some generic actor face.

[shadow valve]

When the game come to PS5????

[sleek cliff]

It’s heavily unlikely right now.

[untold field]

new creations are out btw

[mystic fox]

Does anybody know how to get customized terrain to work on xbox? do I have to batch it in a ba2 and if so is it any different then doing a texture?

[untold field]

This would have been such a great use for the chronomark in SF - as a minimap! 😮

[sleek cliff]

Well, No vigilance.

https://tenor.com/view/8th-floor-long-call-specialist-gif-26079895

[untold field]

Mh I don't think I will stream Starfield today, there isn't really any new creation that excites me this week.

[sleek cliff]

Something just occurred to me, how come we never get clothing mods?

[untold field]

Because morphs are a pain in the ass to make I guess

[sleek cliff]

I love houses and guns, sure, but some new clothes would be nice

[untold field]

More original clothing mods would be dope for sure though

[west flare]

Save bloats are a pain in the ass as well for those who don't want to go to the Unity. Even with mods. Always resulting in crashes for me. And I would either have to remove mods or start a new game. I don't even want to remove mods to load my current save because obviously it breaks the game.

[sleek cliff]

Would make for a wonderful change of pace

[untold field]

I appreciate the work of zone and some others, they really made me look twice or more before I realised they used vanilla assets, but I'd really like some more original assets.

[sleek cliff]

Exactly, something original would be amazing.

[untold field]

But I guess clothes mods are just in general harder to make. Skyrim and Fallout 4 also have WAY more weapon mods than clothes mods. And Starfield made them even harder to make with the introduction of morphs.

[sleek cliff]

FO4 and Skyrim have some banger clothing mods.

I wish XTUDO did stuff for Starfield

[timid temple]

also if it's free-flowing cloth, you need Havok tools to make it look good

[untold field]

Yeah but is it that many when you look at how many years these games are out?

Compare the amount of high quality weapon mods for FO4 to the amount of high quality clothing mods

[untold field]

That too

[sleek cliff]

True, you got me there.

[sleek cliff]

Are we Joever, Fen?

[timid temple]

😭 Life has gotten in the way

I got obsessed with Kpop Demon Hunters, and then life happened, and now I have a con this weekend. I was hoping to get the new mod out before the holidays, but that's looking unlikely going by my to-do list for it.

I have some half-done jars as consolation:

[sleek cliff]

Aw well, take all the time you need, still lookin’ forward to that jewelery box.

[sleek cliff]

https://tenor.com/view/yes-yas-wwe-scream-gif-17625417

Only one thing comes to mind when I hear KDH

https://tenor.com/view/this-smells-so-good-rumi-kpop-demon-hunters-the-aroma-is-delightful-netflix-gif-10917465647597832573

I don’t know what that thing is, but it looks like a vegan burrito

[timid temple]

it's called kimbap and it's kinda like a giant sushi roll, to my understanding

Anyways, in general the cold months are harder for me, but I'll try to get this out ASAP in the new year

when it gets cold I basically turn into a lizard and shut down 🤣

[jolly torrent]

FACTS!! This is my current dilemma.

[sleek cliff]

Okay, sounds like it’s pronounced “Kidnapped”

[sleek cliff]

I’ll be patiently waiting on the bangers you’re onna put out.

[jolly torrent]

I’d say FO4 had some pretty dope mods the first year modding was open to it in 2016.

[untold field]

Honestly, there is probably only a handful of original clothing mods for Fallout 4, especially when you look for lore friendly stuff

And some mods that were really cool in the early days suffered a lot over time because they were made in the early days.

Look at the Mercenary pack

[mystic fox]

I’d say for outfits as a new modder it is relatively simple to figure out retextures and somewhat hard to figure out new morphes and all the stuff with reflections and simiulated depth. But I don’t even know where to start when it comes to adding new assets luckily we have so much good stuff to work with in the base game. I think new outfits requires real talent which takes years to learn.

[timid temple]

less time than you'd think, I suspect. I only learned 3D modeling last year in September, as an example

[mystic fox]

Interesting do you have background game design before that or no?

[timid temple]

nope! I'm a cybersecurity engineer by day 🤣

[untold field]

Can I have a look at your stuff? I don't recognise the name.

[sleek cliff]

https://tenor.com/view/cyberattack-gif-20679812

[timid temple]

the duckies, ship wings, and the Ashlander decorations are all things I modeled myself

these days if I want new stuff in the game, I make it myself

also the pirate ship structural stuff

[mystic fox]

Oh nice how hard is it to make the new texture sheets?

[timid temple]

I abuse tf out of the materials functionality 😆

[sleek cliff]

Can confirm, love Ashlanders

[timid temple]

I make my stuff, split the mesh by what I want the material to be, and try my hardest to find pre-made mat files to use or recolor

[untold field]

Its so weird that when I google a creation I always get results in languages that are not english

and also not german (my language)

[timid temple]

right? I frequently get the Chinese versions of pages, which is tbh confusing

[timid temple]

here: https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/all?author_displayname=FenHarellan

[untold field]

Ah I recognise some of these

Really bad with memorizing names and faces though

[mystic fox]

Oh nice I have your extended mariner and duck hunt mods installed

[neat crow]

Always had a suspicion you're a lizard

[mystic fox]

And my friend had a laugh when he came over and I booted up the game with the quackening and a quackified ship

[west flare]

Amen brother. I want to play Starfield my own way, but constant crashes and save bloats are preventing me from playing the game.

[lyric finch]

Alas no vigilance it seems

[dusk steeple]

What’s been added?

[nimble latch]

Starfield also has far less modders than fallout or skyrim

[dusk steeple]

Is it because of everyone’s waiting for news, DLCs and more modding tools or something else?

[sleek cliff]

[nimble latch]

All modding tools are available, but yeah dlc has been super slow. I just think less people are interested in this game compared to the other two

[jolly torrent]

Right? I have started about three or four new games because I don’t do the whole “unity” BS, as in my head cannon that doesn’t exist. So eventually the save bloat gets me. I know it’s coming soon because it takes my game friggin 6+ minutes to load on Xbox Series X.

[west flare]

I'm on PC.

[jolly torrent]

Exactly.

[sleek cliff]

[mystic fox]

Probably because its the first game in the franchise, I'd say like 30% of fallout mods and 40% of Skyrim mods are bringing something in from a previous game.

[west flare]

Hey, even I have problems with save bloats on PC. Well, windows laptop.

[mystic fox]

I've never had a save bloat issue how many mods do you have installed?

[jolly torrent]

7.96 GBs worth of mods. Lol

So I would say well over 100

[west flare]

To vaguely answer: a lot. And yes, maybe I should remove mods, but here are issues with that. Number one, it breaks my current save if I remove mods. Number two, Starfield modding is the least popular of Bethesda game mods and not enough modders are enough to make mods to make tools to detect the cause of the crashes. Number three, it's a pain that I would probably have to start the whole game all over again by making a new game.

[mystic fox]

Thats fair, I normally start with like 20 mods installed and add more to it as I go but yeah starting a new game kinda takes you out of it,

[dusk steeple]

Honestly, I wish we could get more classic sci fi mods in Starfield instead of a ton of Star Wars mods

[west flare]

All I'm personally waiting for is a huge mod overhaul of Starfield turning into a Halo RPG game.

[lyric finch]

@true igloo eagerly awaiting Vigilance to mark the end of this hiatus

[dusk steeple]

I want mods to make the game into an Aliens rpg. Colonial Marines, Weyland Yutani, Xenomorphs, predators.

[west flare]

For Starfield though, I'm the type of person that just wants to narratively play the game like doing all side quests, then the main quest, but don't go to the Unity yet, until I 100% all moons and planets, beat Roach's bounty record, and do the Shattered Space expansion DLC, do Watchtower DLC creation to found my own fleet, then maybe go to the Unity when I've completed basically everything my universe had to offer.

I like to do things both narratively and immersively.

[nimble latch]

I'm gonna guess it's going to be the only game in the franchise

[tender stump]

it's because of the way they did localization in the URL, you can usually just scroll down to the bottom and change language, or edit the URL to change it to en.

[sleek cliff]

I’d sacrifice an @maiden rose for a release date.

[timid temple]

quackified ships make my month ngl

[timid temple]

oh I know, I was talking about in the search results

[tender stump]

yeah, the Chinese versions show up in search results sometimes because the URL is different

if more people linked to the Chinese one it can win because Google is turning to garbage.

[mystic fox]

I love the idea of the unity but I have never enjoyed ng+ in any game so I don’t go through

[tender stump]

In this game NG+ is a canon event in the story.

[timid temple]

I love NG+ in Dishonored 2. Getting to mix-and-match powers really expands the problem solving

[dusk steeple]

Honestly being able to pilot mechs would be cool in Starfield as a mod as well as customize them

[mystic fox]

Has anybody run into this I’m making a location in the ocean but every object I place has this weird mud overlay on top, does anyone know how to get rid of that?

[maiden rose]

https://tenor.com/view/james-franco-wait-what-wut-wtf-nani-gif-25479769

[sleek cliff]

Sorry, Webs, you’re the best sacrifice I can think of

[jolly torrent]

I love Starfield to death, but I hope Beth addresses that save bloat issue.

[jolly torrent]

You and me both.

[mystic fox]

I want some firefly mods, but thats sadly not in my skillset

I figured out my issue, its the dirtiness level in the object tab, now I need to clean every object I place 😐

[sleek cliff]

Why won’t BGS just give the mods the Ani-Kit?

[untold field]

Might be because of licensing issues?

[dusk steeple]

The ani-kit?

[sleek cliff]

Animation Kit

[dusk steeple]

Ah okay

[untold field]

But also, I dont think we have ever gotten an official animation tool for any of their previous games havent we?

[sleek cliff]

Beats me, all I know they were gonna add something to the creation kit

[jolly torrent]

I used to love that series.

[jolly torrent]

Didn’t we get that for FO4 or no?

[untold field]

Nah as far as I know those are third party tools

[jolly torrent]

Gotcha.

[subtle jungle]

No. Beth didn't release animations. It was third party tools. Because Bethesda used Havoc physics back then. Which was third party then as well. They probably use another third party tool that isn't readily available or isn't up for licensing use to the public.

[jolly torrent]

I remember Skyrim had that mod that made combat much more engaging. You could do a combat roll. I wish we had that in Starfield.

[subtle jungle]

Yeah. Skyrim had all kinds of crazy combat animation mods. A friend of mine used to use the like Anime combat ones. Where you leap into the air and do comboes and crazy stuff. Was never my personal cup of tea, but was neat to see none the less.

[neat crow]

yup they're no longer using havok for animations

[sleek cliff]

So, what are y’all missing from the CK?

[timid temple]

animation tools and the planet-generating thing

which iirc is another licensing issue

[sleek cliff]

[neat crow]

Yeah Houdini

[slim sun]

https://tenor.com/view/houdini-shallowhal-magic-magician-jackblack-gif-19670306

[jolly torrent]

I heard that someone did make animations on the PC, but it doesn’t or can’t exist on console.

[sleek cliff]

It’s always Houdini, dude has been dead almost a century and still ruining things for BGS players

[neat crow]

Sometimes your jokes are good, sometimes they're bad.

[sleek cliff]

Was this one of the good ones?

[mortal tundra]

Don't forget the rest of the hooks to any source control system 🙂

[tender stump]

it's one of those "replaces part of the game" things, and it's been broken by updates for a long time

[jolly torrent]

That’s not good at all. Lol. So I’m assuming it’s basically an abandoned mod?

[sleek cliff]

I wonder if bumper stickers are still popular in the future

[mystic fox]

Probably since the space trucker has bumber seque stickers all over it, Probably not on ships, I dont think people get close enough to other ships to read bumber stickers.

[sleek cliff]

I’d be putting so many stickers on my guns.

[tender stump]

there's a mod that has one that says "I brake for Terrormorphs"

[sleek cliff]

[boreal osprey]

Would the planet gen thing be being able to edit the variables of what is generated?

[jolly torrent]

@viral ember Also, thank you for the xFactionx outfitted mods. I really appreciate them!

[jolly torrent]

Lol. Seriously?!!

[mystic fox]

Thats good to hear people are enjoying them, I had alot of fun making them and have an update or two to the Crimson fleet one and maybe the spacers, The crimson fleet one has almost 4,000 downloads, which is funny since I put more effort into the spacer one and Ecliptic one 🤣

[jolly torrent]

I really enjoy it

[untold field]

It should be possible somehow. NPCs can do a combat roll.

Someone manage to make the third person cover in Fallout 4 usable for the player (very janky though) I wished something like that would be done for Starfields NPC animations

[mystic fox]

Do you have al three installed?

[jolly torrent]

Not the Ecliptic one. I’m scared to download that one because I’m already at 7.96 GBs.

Chillin wit Otero

[mystic fox]

Haha thats fair it is a bit of space, the crimson fleet and spacer ones are getting updates would the increased space annoy you

[jolly torrent]

I mean, I’m cool with updating those. For some reason, with updates, I never see the increase in space. Lol

[mystic fox]

Haha it won’t be much just a couple blender outfits we originally wanted to add but didn’t cause we hadn’t figured it out yet

[jolly torrent]

You know how to use Blender?!?

[mystic fox]

My brother figured out but we both work on the mods

Limited use though I only know how to do mashups of in game outfits

[jolly torrent]

Well, shoot, that’s a good skill. I really, really wish I knew how to mod.

[mystic fox]

Haha it’s actually not that hard the computer I mod in can’t even run the game so I test mostly on Xbox, but if I need to test on pc I have to do it on the lowest specs it’s kinda annoying

[jolly torrent]

I am eagerly awaiting your new updates. Is it the Ecliptics who wear the berets?

I may just download that mod and if my game crashes due to hitting the mod limit, it is what it is. I did like how you redesigned their actual uniforms so that it makes sense.

Ugh. Heatleeches are nasty af. I wish this game made them far more dangerous and aggressive.

I would also be very, very grateful for a modder who added in more bosses in Starfield. Maybe I’m not playing the game correctly or something, but I can count on one hand the number of traditional “bosses” I’ve come across.

[mystic fox]

Yes the low level ecliptic wear berets the higher level ones wear helmets and field caps

[mystic fox]

Maybe… I am currently working on locations and maybe I can add a cool boss or two

[jolly torrent]

Do you know how to change the color of the berets and/or add decals to them?

[jolly torrent]

That’s all I need. A few more awesome, memorable bosses. Hell, the only boss that I remember being particularly creepy was the giant queen monster at the Lock. Lol. Then it’s the Hunter at the Lodge after that. Lol

I mean technically, that first UC mission is a boss fight, but…

[obtuse stag]

What mod limit could you possibly be approaching? You can have 100GB's on xbox, as much as your storage allows on pc, you can have over 4,000 plugins depending on your mix of large medium and small, and you can have 255 main ba2s (which are combinable on pc)

[ruby dawn]

Hello I just mad a new account with the proper name. yes I do know how to change the berets colour

[mystic fox]

This is me now

[jolly torrent]

I have heard tale of people’s games just straight up breaking if they go over a certain amount of mods, guy. Yeah, it’s anecdotal evidence, but I’m not about to try that. Lol.

[jolly torrent]

Yes, it did take me forever to figure out the connection lol. I think I figured it out when you dropped the “Enemy Faces” mod. Lol.

[untold field]

You know that you can change your discord name by server? 😅

[jolly torrent]

Yes you can.

[mystic fox]

I have this account linked to too many things and it doesn’t look like I can do that with out premium

[untold field]

Oh wow, everything is paid these days.

[mystic fox]

Amyways I like keeping them separate

[untold field]

At least I finally know what mods are yours heh

[ruby dawn]

Exaclty

[obtuse stag]

There's wabbajack lists with 100's of mods. Those people with issues are having load order issues 99% of the time

[jolly torrent]

That’s what I’m sayin. Lol

[sleek cliff]

Y’all ever have that mod idea that you desperately need to write down before you forget?

[untold field]

And did you remember to write it down?

[sleek cliff]

No.

And I already forgot it.

[subtle jungle]

It was probably "Expedition 33 clothes" or "NCR Veteran Ranger Armor and Sequoia" 😉😂

[subtle jungle]

Was I close? Lol

[sleek cliff]

Nope, neither in fact, yesterday we established the only way either of those things would come to Starfield they’d have to be hand modeled

[subtle jungle]

I could see the Vet gear finding it's way eventually.

[sleek cliff]

It’s gonna be an era before we see such a thing.

Wulfy did a bang up job with what he had to work with.

[untold field]

Mechs should be starfields power armor

[subtle jungle]

I agree but at the same time the game doesn't really offer any situations where Mechs would even be fun to use. I'd have loved for the game to have some POIs or planets with Mech uses for us for sure though.

[untold field]

Well they could make some

I’m totally with you on this.

[tender stump]

LOL you said this and them somebody released a mod full of Titanfall 2 weapons

[mental estuary]

it really is neat huh

[solemn fog]

Why isn’t a mod author made deleting items like you can and fallout four I find it. Frustrating that I can’t delete things.

[tender stump]

Either I'm not sure what you're asking or such mods already exist. Can you elaborate?

[solemn fog]

You buy a ship and the infirmary comes with beds that you don’t need so you want to get rid of them and replace them with ones you like but there’s no way to delete them

Oh I am playing on Xbox and not a computer

[tender stump]

ah, yeah, I'm unaware of a markfordelete mod on creations.

[solemn fog]

It was so handy in fallout to be able to delete things, and resources would go to the workbench.

[sharp lynx]

I stand forgotten.

a relic in time

[tender stump]

I was actually thinking about pestering you about this mod the other day but somebody else was being a jerk so I held off 😄

I want to surround my Lodge with these mechs and dare Watchtower to start something

[sleek cliff]

The ending of this really threw me off.

[ruby dawn]

Hello I am trying to make a new location for a free mod I am working on and cant seem to get the terrain edits I made to work, I got the worldspace working and every asset I place down shows up but when I edit the terrain the landscape dissapears on xbox, I tried putting it into a ba2 after exporting the terrain data. I tried it in its original directory and one in a labeled directory (MODNAME).esm Does anybody know how I can get my terrain edits to show on xbox?

[dusk steeple]

Watchtower can attack the lodge?

[tender stump]

Free mod coming from TG to let us place the Lodge in our outposts!

[neat crow]

Watchtower attacks outposts?

[tender stump]

Sometimes I build my outposts very close to Watchtower facilities. Some might say... too close.

That pic up above with the mech on my landing pad, he followed me back from attacking one that's down below only a couple of hundred meters away.

He's friendly though.

that's the facility with the core stash, for instance.

Torin thinks I'm reckless, but I think Torin is just mad he didn't think of it.

[sleek cliff]

Torin thought I was reckless too, now no one sees Torin anymore

[neat crow]

where is Torin

[sleek cliff]

no one sees Torin anymore.

[neat crow]

where is he

what have you done to him

[sleek cliff]

@ruby dawn About to download the Ecliptic Outfitted mod. Lol

[jolly torrent]

Oh, I do hope you plan a mod that has different beret colors. I need my UC Marines and Navy wearing different colors.

[tender stump]

One of the first Creations I installed in Starfield was a little mod called "Crafting Vacuum Tape to Adhesive" from a guy named Hijak159. Such a simple little mod, could have easily made it myself but I didn't, he did. Became a part of my game and, through the DarkStar HQ Discord, a part of my life.

He's been living out what his doctor told him were "days" left for several months. The cancer has finally caught up to him. Goodbye David, I'm glad I got to know you.

[nocturne river]

Rest easy, Hijak159. Much love to you

[ruby dawn]

I am making an outfit mod at the moment I may throw some berets in, Green Red and Biege, any other colours you would want? They are incredibly easy to make.

I dunno man, i'm gonna be a sucker for blue, black, and purple each and everytime

[ruby dawn]

Arent there already Blue and Black berets though?

[nocturne river]

Not that i can recall, but there might be and i just ain't seen them

[subtle jungle]

I think there is a blue UC one.

[dusk steeple]

Why not just have different hats and outfits for each branch of the UC military?

[ruby dawn]

Maybe ill add a purple one in as well, I'll make a free mod with recoulerd berets or maybe i'll add it to an existing mod ill let you guys know, it will take a day or two im on and off busy.

[jolly torrent]

Red, olive drab, beige, standard blue, black, dark grey.

[jolly torrent]

I’m not the modder. Lol. And I kinda already have that.

[ruby dawn]

No promises but ill see what I can do and let you know👍

Thank you so much!! 🙏🏾

Anyone else having issues with going to Starfield > Creations via game start menu? I keep getting an error that I can’t connect to sever. “Couldn’t connect to the Bethesda.net severs”

[marsh grotto]

Anyone making ship parts? It would be nice to have a Cabot cockpit with a landing bay made into it. This is a mod that puts a captains cabin in the bottom of the Cabot.

[timid temple]

the problem is that the cockpits are a single object, the interior and the exterior are both in the same packin. It's not like the normal habs where the interior is separated

[neat crow]

That's not true, they have two packins like habs

[jolly torrent]

https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/details/41fc7098-df4b-4d4c-994b-61fc1420dad3/GF2___Suomi_Doll

I don’t know why I’m laughing so hard at this and the description has me in tears. Lol

😂

[timid temple]

🤔 Am I misremembering??? Granted it's been a while since I touched the CK

[neat crow]

Yeah the difference is that however both packins contain interior + exterior model, so you can look inside from the outside. The exterior packins just lacks lights, the markers, etc. like all the details. It only has the model + seats.

[timid temple]

ah okay, so I'm not totally offbase

[sleek cliff]

[tawdry sluice]

So ShadowWeaver and I made a little holiday decor mod, look for it soon.

I even added animation markers to the fireplace so that NPCs will sit in front of the fire.

[subtle jungle]

Stoked!

[sleek cliff]

Do UC what I see, love it.

[tender stump]

actually I'm surprised that specific modder hasn't done this yet. Maybe reach out to Mattell and suggest it, he's been doing cockpits with hatch points on top and bottom, it's the natural next step.

I've been using his Brig version of that same one.

12 bed brig down there. Absolute legend.

[marsh grotto]

only problem is someone else ported it to creations. I do not load mods from nexus

[tender stump]

vmroche's team will update the Creations port when Mattell updates the mod.

[grand stream]

Are there any mods that make random junk objects more useful e.g allow scraping, deconstruct or dismantle objects?

[safe sorrel]

Damn that’s cute! I keep toying with doing a little holiday mod, but nothing quite as cool, and festive as this

[lyric finch]

Where is Nova.. are they safe? Are they.. alright?

yes, Quarter Onion even has one that's Achievement Friendly

Well damn, news to me.

[mystic finch]

Closing the loop on this, I've downloaded your Ecliptic, Spacers, and Crimson Fleet mods, and they all play just fine with the Zone mods...and they're fantastic, thank you!

[mystic fox]

Great to hear thanks for checking

[grand stream]

Oh epic thanks! 🙏

[jolly torrent]

I’m a big fan of those mods as well.

[jolly torrent]

I noticed there’s a big lack of music mods for this game. It’s kinda sad.

[dusk steeple]

No radio tbh which is even sadder

[surreal storm]

i have a bunch of music discs collectibles in my upcoming thing but thats not gonna be out for a while

[sleek cliff]

I dunno about these guys, but I’ll GLADLY buy, if it’s stuff I can put in my outpost, hell yes.

[slim sun]

On PC, I know several have been on Nexus then taken down. There used to be several Astral Lounge music replacers, for example, that are no more. I quite liked the Matamia one.
IIRC there's also something weird you have to do to get sound working on Xbox, it's why there are certain mods (like Extra Dialog for Make Rosie A Real Doctor) that only have a PC version as the author hasn't yet been able to work out how to get it working on console.

[surreal storm]

yeah it will be something that you can display or do whatever you want really

[sleek cliff]

Will it be something like framed records?

[jolly torrent]

So the mod authors have taken down the music mods on Nexus???? That’s very unfortunate. I would have loved to see different people’s takes on the soundtrack of the game like they did with Skyrim.

[misty geyser]

It's more likely they were removed for copyright reasons.

[jolly torrent]

I can see that, although I thought Nexus wasn’t nearly as regulated as Creations.

[misty geyser]

It's not, but they still have to obey copyright restrictions.

[jolly torrent]

Lol. That’s why I always suggest to use copyright free music when making a mod like that.

There’s a ton of it on YT.

[misty geyser]

Yep, using Public Domain music is usually the best option, but that means you're limited to much older songs.

Outside of the few who post their stuff with free licenses of course.

[sleek cliff]

There’s probably some gold out there

[jolly torrent]

I think I even suggested some tracks to @surreal storm that were copyright free. I also had a modder change the main menu music and it was 🔥 and was copyright free. There are some bangers, but you just have to know where to look.

[sleek cliff]

There’s probably heat out there in the public domain

[jolly torrent]

One of the biggest music mods that I use with this game is all copyright free music

[jolly torrent]

Shoot, clothing mods and music mods are the biggest mods I think need more love.

[manic pewter]

Anyone had an issue updating Watchtower?

[sleek cliff]

Bruh, there’s an absolute HEATER from 1935 I want in Starfield

[jolly torrent]

What is it? Lol

[jolly torrent]

You’re putting me on.

[sleek cliff]

It’s called “Por Una Cabeza” by Carlos Gardel.

[lone sierra]

Genuine question. since the Starfield community patch isn't being worked on, is it worth using the Starfield unofficial patch?

I have nothing against the unofficial patch, I was just using the other one because it seemed to work better at the time I was using it, but since they abandoned that one I'm just wondering if it's worth switching to since I'm not using either currently. Basically I'm asking for highlights of what the unofficial patch fixes. Lol

[jolly torrent]

Not to be a jerk or a wet blanket, but I don’t even think Starfield is being worked on at all at this point in time besides the modders. I honestly just sayin “pick your poison” at the moment. Lol. Like I’m not even trying to be funny, but….

[lone sierra]

They're actively working on a new dlc actually.

[jolly torrent]

I legit think they are not even doing with this game anytime soon.

[jolly torrent]

I mean, I can SAY a lot of things. It doesn’t make it true. Actions speak louder than words. Just sayin.

I can SAY on one hand and crap in the other. You tell me which one will fill up faster. Lol.

[lone sierra]

To be fair all I asked was which patch was better to use right now.

[jolly torrent]

And to be fair, I was really saying it really doesn’t matter.

Both are probably shuttered because they are awaiting this BIG UPDATE that Beth will do to Starfield that probably will come whenever. For now, just enjoy the game.

Simple as that.

Because people are under the impression, for reasons unbeknownst to me, that Beth is going to release this GIGANTIC, EPIC UPDATE TOMORROW, even though they show no signs of doing anything of the sort. It’s up to the modders at this point.

[lone sierra]

Honestly I'm not sure what's going on with that, I think it's people reading too much into things again. I believe something is coming, but not tomorrow lol

[obtuse stag]

And we're back on this conversation after , checks notes, one whole week. They literally said LAST MONTH that they are actively working on a second dlc and a major update to ships, what more do you want? A hand written letter, a released script, a 3 hour trailer? Like come on they'll release it when its ready, they aren't going to fall into the trap of feeding the hype train again

[obtuse stag]

Use the unofficial patch, the community one was abandoned and will cause issues since sone of its fixes have been fixed in game updates as far as I'm aware

[lone sierra]

Good to know, thank you.

[jolly torrent]

Yeah, mate, they still haven’t done anything.

[misty geyser]

There's been activity on the Steam DB that suggests something big is coming, but that's never enough to say when it's coming.

[jolly torrent]

Yeah, something big may be coming, but I’ll believe it when I see it. I don’t get hyped up on hearing some talking head from Beth saying “Oh, yeah, this next update has lots of cool stuff!!!” And a dumb teaser at the end of a trailer. I heard that crap plenty of times in 3rd grade when people were saying their uncle is Shawn Kemp. It is said so much I don’t believe it anymore. Stop trying to convince me, please.

And nothing against anyone in here. My actual opinion is against Beth for making that decision to do this in the first place.

[misty geyser]

I mean, Steam DB activity aside, they did say something is coming. They were just their usual coy selves about telling us what and when.

[jolly torrent]

Or lack communication, rather. They could have actually stated something substantial rather than a teaser. If I had told my boss “Oh, I have a bunch of cool stuff”, I would be fired on the spot!!!!

[jolly torrent]

Nothing against you, bro. Chill.

[misty geyser]

This isn't exactly abnormal behavior in game development. It's called hooking your audience.

Uh, nobody is on fire here.

[jolly torrent]

It’s not really hooking anyone above a 3rd grade level. You can’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining. I’m not bought by dumb stuff like this. I believe actions speak louder than words.

[misty geyser]

Ok, clearly you're just out to be pissed. I'm out. I don't need this.

[jolly torrent]

IMHO, it’s crap marketing.

Communication is key. Give the audience something to be excited and engaged about versus “Oh, yeah, something’s coming. We just don’t know when and we’re not gonna tell ya what it is, but yeah, just be excited!!! We’re working, though, so be excited!!” That’s trash.

🙄 I see the typing

[obtuse stag]

Like I said on and on we go, this is the fourth time this exact conversation has been had in the month I've been on this server, when is enough enough

[jolly torrent]

And? So? Some people actually love this game and would like to see a bit of communication.

Just sayin.

[obtuse stag]

Nobody cares that you think they should tell you what the update will be or that I think they should keep it to themselves. I'm tired of it and want to move on

And no one, and I mean no one, lives this game the way I do. Starfield is my favorite game of all time

[misty geyser]

You've made it fairly clear you want a lot more than just some "communication" on the matter.

[jolly torrent]

Nope. Just a bit of communication will be fine.

[misty geyser]

All I was saying is that they told us something is coming and that there's activity on the database. Nothing more.

[jolly torrent]

And I can freely express my opinion like you do. Your next point?

[jolly torrent]

Right. And when is that next communication coming?

[misty geyser]

I'm honestly not sure what devs you're used to and what level of communication they operate at, but in my experience most of them don't offer what you're wanting.

[obtuse stag]

My point is having the same conversation over and over again is the definition of insanity

[jolly torrent]

After all, it just been “Something is COMING!!”

[misty geyser]

To be fair, I wasn't aware this had been a repeating sore spot.

[jolly torrent]

And YOU choose to engage in it versus staying out of it. Lol

[jolly torrent]

Really? I’m probably not the only one who is kinda weirded out on the lack of communication or updates. I’m sure you’ve seen it.

[misty geyser]

Serious question. How long have you been a Bethesda fan?

[obtuse stag]

Oh that wasn't directed at you, but it was enough of a sore spot to get the mods in here last week

[jolly torrent]

Forever and a day, my guy.

[misty geyser]

Please be more specific.

[jolly torrent]

Whatever

[jolly torrent]

I’m just so over you right now, dude. Ugh.

[jolly torrent]

What does that have to with Beth’s lack of communication or commitment to this game, if I may ask?

[obtuse stag]

Dude you're crashing out hard, this is the mods chat. Its not the place to argue over bethesdas business strategy for the umpteenth time

[obtuse stag]

Because this is bethesdas mo for years

[misty geyser]

I'll tell you if you answer the question. I promise it's not just because I like hearing my keyboard click.

[jolly torrent]

Not really crashing out. Lol. I’m sitting here chilling because I just got home from “Touch of Class”, so I’m legit chill af. Lol.

[jolly torrent]

I think you like hearing that keyboard click, guy. Lol.

[misty geyser]

I mean, I do, but come on. It wasn't a hard question 😛

[jolly torrent]

And you are the one who keeps responding to me and White Knighting. You can’t help yourself. Lol

[obtuse stag]

Yeah you're totally not crashing out and ranting about starfields development when someone asked which mod was better to use

At least I answered his question

[jolly torrent]

@obtuse stag You are so deep in the Kool Aid that I’m trying to have a conversation with @misty geyser and you keep inserting yourself into it. Beth sucks at communication. Simple as that. Anything else???

[misty geyser]

But ok, if you don't want to say, RussianJesus got it. This is how Bethesda has operated for the 30+ years I've followed them. This is nothing new or unexpected. Todd likes to tease the audience. He always has.

They don't suck at communication. They say only what they mean to say, when they mean to say it.

[jolly torrent]

@misty geyser They don’t mean what they say. Lol. If Starfield is any proof of it. Lol

[misty geyser]

I'm not even sure what that's supposed to mean, so I can't reasonably respond to it.

[jolly torrent]

I love this game to death, but they seriously didn’t mean what they said on it. Lol

Lol

[obtuse stag]

You're so lost in your own delusion you forgot that this conversation was between me and you before arthmoor joined...

[misty geyser]

In any case, that's why I asked how long you've been a fan, because you don't seem to understand that this is completely normal for them.

And honestly all I'm seeing in return is a desire to be mad at them for no reason you seem to want to articulate.

[jolly torrent]

I’ve been a fan for quite a while. I told you that. I even remember that dreadful horse armor they produced for Oblivion.

[obtuse stag]

And theirs the hype train talking, theirs not a thing in the game that is contrary to what they said before release, just contrary to what the hype made up before release

[misty geyser]

Seen that kind of hype before too and it nearly ruined another game as a result of false fan hype before release. You might be able to guess which game I'm talking about.

[jolly torrent]

Why would I be mad at them? Even if I were mad at them, what difference would it make? It would be the in the same line as defending them. They have paid lawyers to defend them on speed dial. They don’t need paid lawyers.

Sorry. Correction. They don’t need UNPAID lawyers.

[misty geyser]

Starting to see why the mods stepped in last week 😛

[jolly torrent]

They have a whole lawyer/litigation team to defend them on speed dial. Lol. They don’t need random Joe Blow to make excuses for them when they have a whole team of paid attorneys.

[obtuse stag]

I do want to say on a more channel related note, thank you for all you do in making must have mods for bethesda games, this one included

[jolly torrent]

@misty geyser I’m sorry. You keep referencing this whole modders stepping in incident. What is that in reference to?

[misty geyser]

Nobody is making excuses for them. We're just trying to explain that this is normal operating procedure for them.

[misty geyser]

RussianJesus said the moderators stepped into this debate last week. Which I was not aware of.

[jolly torrent]

And giving constructive criticism and feedback is not a crime, btw. Thank you.

[misty geyser]

Telling them they have crap communication isn't constructive in the slightest though.

[jolly torrent]

I know nothing about that. I didn’t see that and I am on this Discord quite a bit.

[obtuse stag]

Last week when the mods steeped in when debate was raging in here, I don't believe you were part of that one, might have been 2 weeks ago

[jolly torrent]

Yeah it is. Lol. Get better at communicating is constructive criticism

[misty geyser]

And for the record, I lurk, but I do at least try to pay attention.

[jolly torrent]

If you did, you would have seen the “incident” in question.

[misty geyser]

No, that's just a useless statement. "You suck" without telling them how they can improve is not constructive

[jolly torrent]

Because some people like to dramatize incidents around here. Lol

[jolly torrent]

I never said “You suck”. Never did I say that.

[misty geyser]

Eh, it's usually pretty chill in here most times and I don't really have a huge stake in things beyond the USFP.

And I try not to get involved in the USFP vs SFCP debates either.

[jolly torrent]

I simply stated a little communication goes a long way for this community. And then people wouldn’t have questions and would know a game they love has something following up on their investment.

That’s all I said. If you don’t like the way I presented my criticism then that’s your problem

[obtuse stag]

But we got a little communication and according to you it didn't go far enough

[jolly torrent]

Not mine.

[misty geyser]

Well my point there is that the community seems aware that something is coming and was content to leave it at that. Obviously not everyone got the memo though.

[jolly torrent]

And again, that’s your opinion. Not mine. DEAL WITH IT!!!!

[misty geyser]

Actually no, it tends to become yours when the moderators don't like how you presented it.

[obtuse stag]

So which is it, is a little communication going a long way or is it we need a 17 page writeup and a 3 hour video released

[jolly torrent]

We all have our opinions, guy. If you don’t like mine, don’t respond to it.

[misty geyser]

And look, you're clearly getting mad about it so I dunno. You're not leaving much room for a better interpretation.

[jolly torrent]

Block me, like I blocked Russian Jesus guy

I’m not mad in the least. It’s a game. You’re the one getting defensive about a dam game. Lol

[obtuse stag]

Yeesh, I guess getting blocked is one way to remove a problem

[misty geyser]

Nah, Discord blocking is flat out useless and is ironically more annoying than just leaving it be.

[jolly torrent]

And???

That shows how mad you are. Lol

[misty geyser]

And what? You said block you. I'm telling you why that would be pointless for me to do.

[jolly torrent]

You mad.

You BIG mad. Lol

[misty geyser]

No?

[jolly torrent]

Yeah. Lol

[obtuse stag]

Not much of a debate now outside of people confused as to which to use since sfcp is no longer supported

[misty geyser]

Indeed, but chances are if I said use USFP, that would be seen as biased.

[jolly torrent]

And the sad thing about this is I respected you @misty geyser Smh.

[obtuse stag]

I know its pointless to reply to someone who blocked you but its hilarious to call someone big mad when you're so upset you're blocking people

[misty geyser]

Ah, the reddit card is played at last. Wondered when that was coming.

[jolly torrent]

I even suggested to a user just tonight. Just now to use your mod because you are still active in this Discord.

Ummmm…..when did I ever bring up Reddit???

[misty geyser]

insert predictable followup comment here

[jolly torrent]

Pray tell??!! Or did YOU bring up Reddit?!!!

Because I said NOTHING OF THE SORT!!!!!

See? People be telling on themselves.

[misty geyser]

No, but you're acting just like they do when they've lost an argument.

[jolly torrent]

People be telling on themselves

[misty geyser]

Hence why I said "reddit card". It's a figure of speech, not a literal statement.

[jolly torrent]

That’s that guilty conscience

Because nowhere did I make ANY mention of Reddit

[misty geyser]

Let me just say that it's surprising the moderators haven't stepped in again after how you've escalated this.

[jolly torrent]

My goodness

You walked right into that one.

[misty geyser]

And that it's not the first time I've seen you do this to someone.

[jolly torrent]

So you say.

[jolly torrent]

But this is between you and I. It doesn’t involve anyone else.

How about that?!?

[misty geyser]

All it does is prove there's a pattern with you. So if you want to keep being mad, then be mad.

[obtuse stag]

Well I wouldn't say it involves no one else, I don't cease to exist just because I'm blocked

[jolly torrent]

@misty geyser and I have been nothing but respectful towards you and as soon as I started giving constructive criticism towards a game company you lost it

[misty geyser]

From where I'm sitting it definitely wasn't him who lost it.

[jolly torrent]

So….that says a lot more about you than me.

[jolly torrent]

Oh yeah, bro. You lost it. Which is why you’re still on this an hour later. Lol

If you didn’t think it were worth your time, you would have been dropped it and moved on to modding.

[misty geyser]

You .... could stop responding. That would end the discussion too.

[jolly torrent]

Just sayin. Lol

Yeah, and you could have stopped responding, too. Like I told the Jesus dude. If you don’t like what I say ignore it and CONTINUE ABOUT YOUR DAY!!!!

PERIOD!!!!

[misty geyser]

So angry.

[jolly torrent]

I don’t know why that is so hard for some people.

[misty geyser]

This is a discussion channel, yes? Other people are allowed to express opinions on the matter.

[jolly torrent]

But some people like to inject themselves into whatever the flavor of the week is.

[misty geyser]

Hell all I did was offer up a small bit of factual information and you literally lost it like someone was attacking you over it.

[jolly torrent]

And that’s how we got to this. If you didn’t like what I said and it offended you so greatly, then keep your comments to yourself, big dawg.

Just sayin

[misty geyser]

It didn't offend me at all. I'm too old to let words on a server bother me that much.

[jolly torrent]

And you still wanna respond.

Great. If I didn’t offend you, MOVE ON!!!

Do something else with your life, like updating your awesome mods.

[misty geyser]

Why? As I said, this is a discussion channel. Not your personal soap box.

[jolly torrent]

Thank you!!!! Have a wonderful evening!!!!

[misty geyser]

You didn't offend me, but you're acting like I greatly offended you and I'm not even sure how.

[jolly torrent]

Jesus F Christ

Childish

[obtuse stag]

Just for whoever sees this stuff in the morning, you gotta read the whole thing stuff got crazy in here

[misty geyser]

Assuming it survives until morning 😛

[obtuse stag]

True, true

[jolly torrent]

🙄

Yep yep

“Dear diary, I faced a threat akin to the one Daniel-San faced in Karate Kid 3. Call a shrink, I’m a broken man.” GTFOH.

Block!!!!

Anyway, I have a nice glass of wine and nobody is going to ruin that this evening.

Let me get into these space lanes.

[little hare]

drama in the mod channel? Yes, I will surely scroll all the way up to get the deep lore on that.

[jolly torrent]

😂

There’s a lot of drama to through, meanwhile, I’m enjoying my wine and happily coasting in these space lanes.

[jolly torrent]

Living the dream, I suppose.

[untold field]

Bro

For real, turn off your devices and go catch some air. You completely lost it.

Not sure what's going on with you, maybe a bad day, but this is not the proper way to deal with it. Someone just asked what patch they should use and you turned this into a hate spree against Bethesda and several other community members here. Not cool. We should try to create a safe and fun environment for Starfield fans here, not this, right?

[untold field]

It was a lot of scrolling. The mods are gonna scream in frustration when they wake up lol.

[jolly torrent]

Was this supposedly directed towards me? Just wondering

If not, then I apologize

If it was directed at me, then, yes, I still stand by my words. Beth needs to do better T their communication strategies and their overall handling of this game. Period. That’s just my opinion. I love how people get mighty upset over opinions here.

And if it was not directed at me, then i apologize sincerely

[untold field]

Lol of course it was directed at you 😅 Man stop it. It has nothing to do with opinions. It's they way and the time you express those.

[jolly torrent]

It’d be a totally different story if I were out here insulting Beth and the modders, which I’m not. In fact, the modders I have the highest respect for. Far more than Beth. Because they have they have a greater love for the product at this point.

[untold field]

Idk man, the way you spoke to some people in this conversation is not respectful at all.

[jolly torrent]

It is all about opinions. The here are no facts that we are arguing here. The only fact that we actually have is “WE ARE WORKING”, well, I hope Yol are!!!

[untold field]

Now don't make this another discussion with me. Just take what I said. Lets have a better discussion next time.

[jolly torrent]

I have been nothing BUT respectful. But at the same time, I’m not going to disrespected. Just sayin.

[untold field]

You and I have very different takes on being respectful.

[jolly torrent]

Show me where I have been disrespectful and called someone out of their name. Please. 🙏🏾

If ANYTHING, people have been super disrespectful towards ME! All over the name of a game company. Lol.

Like, what?!?!

[untold field]

Well, I tried, seems like there is no reasoning with you today.

[jolly torrent]

It is what it is. Beth needs to do better in their communication. That’s all it is. You guys can say what you want.

I’m tired of trying to make a simple point.

For real. At this point I’m like this

[untold field]

The way you are trying to make a point will not lead you anywhere.

[jolly torrent]

Okay. And if you don’t understand my point, that’s your problem. Lol

Not mine. It’s very clear and concise. Beth needs to do better on communication

If you want to defend corporate America then it is what it is.

[untold field]

Idk what it is today with you, if you are drunk or something, but I don't know where you are taking this from. I was talking to you, telling you to calm it down a notch when people are just asking a simple question.

I did not say anything about Bethesda lol. I did not say anything about the topic being discussed. I saw the conversation, how you acted towards people and tried to give you an advice. It feels like you are looking for fights today ngl.

[jolly torrent]

It would be nice to get some sort of answer on Starfield though. Is it going anywhere? Is it abandoned? Is it dime? What is Terra Ferma? What is it? Why should I be excited? Why should I drink the same Kool Aid that ever else is drinking?

That’s my point. But you decided to take it to another level. Wow @untold field never thought you’d be this way.

@untold field Nope. Not drunk. I’m just seeing things and seeing red flags that shouldn’t be there because Witcher 3 had some fine DLCs and so did Fallout 4. In fact Beth had a whole roadmap for Fallout 4. Season pass and all. This game? Nope. Just wait.

And i am trying to find out what the whole “WAIT” is about. Like I said multiple times before. Without the modders, this game wouldn’t be anything.

[untold field]

We all wished that there was more communication, but at some point it's better to just take it the way it is. Constant frustration is not going to make your day better and Bethesda is not going to change their ways because of it. We do not know why they are not communicating more but they will have their reasons.

[jolly torrent]

Not frustrated in the least. However, it is rather CONCERNING that there is ZERO communication from Beth.

Frustration / = / Concern

[proud forum]

3 am has weird fights in it.

[jolly torrent]

Now, can we please be chill and drop this BS, please?

[untold field]

Hey hey I am doing proper 10 am fights here

[proud forum]

Look at you in the future!

[subtle jungle]

I was sitting here for 10 mins trying to find a way to break the ice here and try to get this to settle out. Lol.

[untold field]

Well my advice to you guys, don't try it. I tried to help and reason and I actually made it worse 😅 Let me be an example for you 😜

[proud forum]

I'm just waiting for my email server to finish maintenance so I can finish updating my website and wondering if anyone had any mod suggestions and oh look. Fight.

[jolly torrent]

Bro, no need. You can’t say anything that can be misconstrued as “HATE”. Period. You have to praise this game and worship it 5 tines a day. Faults and all.

[untold field]

Just saying, for a channel named "starfield-mods" the moderation presence is shockingly low here

[proud forum]

Anyone have anything interesting they're playing with?

I need pretty pictures for my website.

[untold field]

Did you try the titanfall 2 weapon pack already? I love it.

[jolly torrent]

I, in fact LOVE this game. I just wish people loved it with same vigor I do. Otherwise, they wouldn’t blindly defend it when one has constructive criticism towards it.

[proud forum]

I've not. Will look at it though. I've still gotta playthrough the tiny reasons to explore packs. So I have those on my list.

[subtle jungle]

Ay yo? I hadn't seen this one yet.

[jolly torrent]

🙄 and I thought you were cool. Smh.

[jolly torrent]

Good morning, bro.

[untold field]

I am still torn about these. They look cool on one hand but idk if thry are compatible with Desolation (like following the rules desolation sets)

[untold field]

You cannot spell LX6R without cool so idk what you mean.

[jolly torrent]

You actually can. Lol. It’s very easy, my guy.

[proud forum]

Dude. That was like the biggest tackle box of bait. 🤣

Wait. What's Desolation?

[jolly torrent]

For whatever reason you wanted to be a jerk to me this morning/ evening though we usually get along fine.

[subtle jungle]

It's a Gothos POI mod. It's supposed to make POIs more logical in their placement.

I haven't used it myself, but lots of folks do.

[proud forum]

I missed it. I've been slamming and jamming FO4 for a couple months. Just getting back into Starfield.

[jolly torrent]

If you use that mod, let me know how it works out.

[proud forum]

I'll give that one a look too. Thank you. 🙂

[jolly torrent]

Someone is very high on themselves today.

[subtle jungle]

I'm unfortunately one of the unfortunates that is struggling with some issues after the new FO4 update so I have skipped my way back to Starfield until my specific issues get patched out. Working on a new playthrough specifically modded for Pirating and Blackmarket deals.

[jolly torrent]

I’m glad you woke up on the right side of the bed @untold field

[untold field]

I'll try this one last time. I don't have anything against you, in fact, I value our usual conversations. In my opinion, you overshot it tonight and I tried to reason with you.

Again, this has nothing to do about the topic itself, I was literally just trying to tell you that you are a bit out of control today.

[proud forum]

I'm so sorry that's happening. FO4 is one of my favorite games. I hope all the updates work for you.

[untold field]

Gothos has a follow up verified creation to Desolation btw, which is called "The Great Unknown"

[proud forum]

Pirating and blackmarket deals sound fun though. 😄

[subtle jungle]

I'm sort of stuck on my finalized order. Debating if I want to run TG's Galactic Harvest and S1nds Economy to give it a little more of a immersive and possibly more difficult vive.

[jolly torrent]

I overshot nothing. I am just chilling. The only thing I said that could be misconstrued as “a bit out of sorts” was asking if this game was abandoned. That is all. Outside of that, I have been defending myself.

[subtle jungle]

Eh it happens. I don't get worked up. Not saying I'm not disappointed, but it will get sorted and I'll get to do my AR2 Playthrough with the new toys eventually.

[untold field]

But yeah I dont want to use the tiny reasons creations if they ignore the rules set up by Desolation/The Great Unknown. Would feel wrong to stumble over them in places they should not be in.

[jolly torrent]

And I asked Beth to legit do better. I never personally attacked anyone. I never called anyone out of their name. I never insulted anyone. Period.

But people started attacking me for asking questions. lol. That seems wild.

[proud forum]

I might break down and play on PC so I can patch it for myself if necessary. >_> Cuz y'know. The game's... moddable. 😛

[untold field]

Whaaat haha

[subtle jungle]

We've got several mods that can make it totally viable. Miss Os Lambent offers an immersive Blackmarket. The Morgue mod allows a steady stream of uh... goods.. 😂 and Korodic has some mods like Captain's Matter and Piracy.
Oh and DownfallNem has a mod that plays along side the fleet quest line which is kool.

[jolly torrent]

The Tiny Reasons to Explore mods are a must have.

[untold field]

I still need to find out what causes one bug I constantly have with loading screens being weird. From time to time I dont have a real loading screen but the game has some spasms and then the next scene is loaded lol.

[proud forum]

Welp that's one way to say, "Nope."

[jolly torrent]

Bro, welcome to the Xbox Series X

And this game

[untold field]

It doesnt even seem to affect anything negatively, it just doesn't look right

[jolly torrent]

Because I get that and that is my warning

It never happens on New Game. Just on old save files

[untold field]

https://www.youtube.com/live/hwA1hAaDUlk?si=7Qwqp7BZUPkJrFQY @1:20:20 there is an example of this loading screen bug.

One of the less weirder looking ones, sometimes there is a lot of flickering and stuff going on like as if the game is loading and just forgot to place the loading screen over it.

[subtle jungle]

Clever attempt to get another view off me. 😉

[proud forum]

Subbed. 🙂

[untold field]

Lol I would clip it but when I try to send a clip Discord always cries at me that I am trying to send a file too big

Probably need Super Nitro Special Deluxe for that

[subtle jungle]

That's just a really quick loading screen bro.

It does the black screen transition but only lasts for like .2 seconds.

[proud forum]

oh wild. Yeah. Agree with Spawn. Nothing had time to load.

[subtle jungle]

I've had this happen too.

I always just assumed it was because whatever I was doing didn't require longer on the black screen.

[untold field]

These should still be black though and not let me see how my game is having a stroke

[jolly torrent]

The loading screens without a screenshot when you load into the game you mean? Lol. I hear ya.

[untold field]

I need to remember to clip it next time it happens on stream I always forget that. Never had something like this happen on previous Bethesda games.

And my Fallout 4 sometimes loads quicker than my Starfield 😅 mods are a great thing.

[jolly torrent]

I feel like your streams are cool even with that. To me, that doesn’t matter. But my opinion sucks around here.

Night night!

[untold field]

Thanks, and no, your opinion does matter. I just felt you did not do a good job at how you voiced it tonight. Maybe we should just move on from this. Like it happened, we cannot change that it happened, we disagreed over things, but now we can go back to agreeing over things.

Like how cool I am

I am so cool I even use 67 jokes daily!

[subtle jungle]

Oh, Pretentious, you mentioned Tiny Reasons earlier. I'm lazy right now. Can you tell me how frequent the space ones are and if there is an adjuster in the settings? I've considered that one because I do feel like space should have more debris and stuff to run into.

[jolly torrent]

If this is directed at me, we ARE GOING to disagree at points. We are two totally different HUMAN BEINGS, my guy. Lol. We may love this game, but we are people! So you can have your opinion and I have mine. Nothing wrong with that and no hard feelings, guy.

I don’t hold grudges. I’ve had several disagreements with people on here. Some people take it lightly. Some people go full on with it. Lol. That’s not my monkey nor my circus. Lol.

[subtle jungle]

Also. May I give some small advice? Using "My guy" can come across as passive aggressive and patronizing. So it doesn't help with defusing a situation. Because in text, tone is lost and folks will read what you say in the tone they pull from your words.

[jolly torrent]

There is an adjuster in the settings to get the frequencies of how often a space station or a random satellite or if you’re planetside, a wayward curmudgeon will show up.

[jolly torrent]

That’s just my lingo, guy. Sorry if you don’t like it. I’m from Jersey. That’s just the way I speak. Zero disrespect towards you or your loved ones. Dig it or not.

[subtle jungle]

I've seen you talk a lot. I don't think you intentionally try to be an jerk, but it's the internet and not everyone is going to read "my guy" as your version of "my dude". "My guy" has always been a patronizing phrase. So folks are usually gonna read it that way. That's all I'm saying. Just might help you understand why folks go in on you during debates or arguments. Cause your words may betray your meaning. 🤘

But I think I'm gonna install Tiny Reasons to explore space for this pirate playthrough too. 😎

[jolly torrent]

Well, generally I’m smiling when I type on this Discord, my guy. I’m probably the nicest person on here. I try not to disrespect others.

[subtle jungle]

I feel ya.

[jolly torrent]

Or at least I try to be the nicest person on here.

I think if anyone has a problem with me on here then they have personal problem

@subtle jungle but yeah, dawg. Tiny Reasons to Explore is my jam. That mod is AWESOME!!!!

And it has a few other “sequels” to it.

Tiny Reasons to Explore

[untold field]

Still wished we had proper rotational zero g outside of piloting our ship.

[jolly torrent]

Still wished we had a proper dam mod to give condensation/exhaust from the spacesuit.

[chilly reef]

Still wished we had proper tool documentation

[untold field]

I feel that

[surreal storm]

there's a selection of gameplay options and last week i added a new "Extra Rare" option that's like 8% spawn chance

[subtle jungle]

I'm thinking for this Pirate Playthrough I want them to be more frequent. Because with the mod list I've got put together and how I'll likely be playing. It seemed a perfect way to just salvage and make a few more credits since I'll be in space a lot. So if I went the opposite of the Extra Rare so to speak lol. How frequent can I get them?

[surreal storm]

I don't remember the exact percentages right now but I believe it's something like 70%, 40%, 20 or 15% and then 8%

[subtle jungle]

70 sounds pretty great! Thanks for the info, bro!

I'd been considering grabbing it anyway because I feel like it adds a more realistic effect to space. I know space is huge and all, but it's also a video game. So I'd expect to see more remnants of salvage, debris and other stuff floating around.

[surreal storm]

That was my intention. I will also keep continue adding new location types so you'll see something like dungeons eventally though I am waiting as I think I might have to redo parts of this project after the next Starfield update

[sleek cliff]

Someday there’ll be a Starfield update.

[surreal storm]

soon enough if i had to guess it's something like march or april maybe

[sleek cliff]

[jolly torrent]

That’s accurate

[jolly torrent]

Thank you!!!🙏🏾

[untold field]

@surreal storm does tiny reasons work with desolation, like does it follow desolations rules if you have them both installed?

[small imp]

anyone having issues starfield mods the bigger downloading starting and stopping and repeating that?

[surreal storm]

it's not using the same systems as POIs so I don't think it follows Desolation's rules. You can adjust everything in gameplay options though. You can still use both

[icy bramble]

I support this argument. I've been using Tiny Reasons for a long time alongside Desolation, and it doesn't follow the rules of the latter.

[chilly reef]

What is Tiny Reasons?

[surreal storm]

Tiny Reasons to Explore. A series of my creations and one of those is featured in the banner in the Creations menu righht now

[mental estuary]

And they're all amazing.

[surreal storm]

Thank you! There's room for improvement (like no LODs or locations sometimes spawning in weird places) that I will iron out once I get the right answers from Bethesda people

[toxic pike]

Can you define non-POI clutter, to spawn near specific POIs? I'm building some shipwreck POIs and I thought it would be neat to have some shipwreck related clutter spawn near them, sort of a debris field that gets scattered beyond the debris on the actual POI

[surreal storm]

I believe there's a distance from location condition form so should be possible

[untold field]

Yeah I assumed that you could use it but I dont want it to appear where my normal pois dont appear because of desolation thats why I asked

[surreal storm]

I could look into adding a script that checks for Desolation however it's unlikely I'll make it in time before the QA team is away in December

[safe sorrel]

https://youtu.be/eu0oW6_mND4
got a full video showcase up at last for Lambent which covers everything that’s been added, and all the little extra features that some people might miss, since not everything is always as obvious as I assume it will be to those who don’t live in my head.

It also shows the new hab that was added by the latest update

[jolly torrent]

An amazing mod. Lol

[small imp]

Question I got problem solved, But have new one, does anyone what paid mod conflicts with an other? My starfield just crashed and i had to deleted my data to get it to work again

[sleek cliff]

[safe sorrel]

I saw a few review videos and everyone missed Gary, so now hopefully everyone will be able to find him

Lol. I don’t doubt that.

Slow time star power

[jolly torrent]

Lol. I wish.

[lyric finch]

Is that.. not? How you doing things??

[quiet ocean]

Hey there! First off, I wanted to say I am a huge fan of your mods and work! I use some of them on both Elder Scrolls and Starfield! I wanted to reach out with a quick question about the Starfield Creation: Build & Decorate anywhere. By far one of the greatest mods in the game as I've been able to trick out every location I go to! The only downfall I've come across is that there are a small number of places that it doesn't work. The switch appears and everything, but it's greyed out. The main one being the UC Vigilance command center. I wanted to trick it out more than it is, but none of the switch placements allowed me to activate the build menu. Is it the game that's restricting it? I assume because it's a ship maybe, despite decorating other ships I've been on that weren't mine. Anyhow, was just curious as to why it would do that. Thanks in advanced and keep doing what you're doing! - Earthwood

[sly ocean]

Hey, thanks for the kind words.
Yep, that's a game restriction, not a restriction by the mod itself.
One workaround could be to create one ring for each object and let you spawn them all in yourself, but orientation and proper placement becomes tedious, and frankly I don't want to go to the effort of adding them all 😁

[tender stump]

There are thousands of mods, nobody can possibly know all the combinations, and when you throw in load order there are effectively infinite combinations.

[untold field]

Would be dope though! Also The Great Unknown which is the successor basically to Desolation.

[jolly torrent]

Pretty much.

[toxic pike]

Awesome! Yeah your Lambent mod has way more in it than people realize. Such a fantastic addition

@safe sorrel Did you voice Celeste?

[safe sorrel]

Thanks! And yeah I half joke that the mod should have been called “oops all scope creep”

And yup that’s me

[toxic pike]

Yeah you thought of literally everything

[safe sorrel]

That way when I have more content to add to her I can

[toxic pike]

The black market is wild, can't imagine how long that took to build out

Yeah your voice is seamless on her, works great! I'm going to try to voice an old drunk ship captain in the mod i'm working on, we will see how that goes.

[safe sorrel]

It took a while to build for sure, but was probably my favorite part to work on

The voice acting was a lot of fun, I think you’ll have a good time doing it for your mod

[toxic pike]

You should rename the mod Lambent Street Rat Ship Services and Black Market and Player home and Clothing and More

I thought I was just getting some ship parts, I'm like holy crap all sorts of stuff going on in there.

[safe sorrel]

Yeah there was not way to accurately name it without the title becoming a novel. That was why I tried to format the description as clearly as I could to hopefully explain it in a quick and easy to digest way

[toxic pike]

Well it is kind of cool because you get it then you discover there is "and MORE"

[safe sorrel]

That was the hope!

[subtle jungle]

Dude. Lambent and Argos are permanent fixtures in my load order. My current playthrough is a Pirate one, Lambent has been perfect as my go to market for all my ...questionable... dealings and Argos Habs have proven perfect to fill in "Abandoned Outpost" now Pirate home base.

While I like the Fleet's aesthetic for the fleet. I don't see my character or crew living that dirty. So your mods have fit that lived in vibe, little grimy but not Fleet levels. So good.

[sleek cliff]

[normal steeple]

So dope!

Need this outfit in Starfield for REASONS

[slim sun]

Not Samara, but the closest I've seen would probably be Vtaw's Miranda and wardrobe 8 & 9. Unfortunately they seemed to lose interest in Starfield pretty quickly so never properly finished them.
https://www.patreon.com/collection/177122?view=expanded

[sleek cliff]

I remember that Miranda’s outfit was temporary on creations on Xbox but then got taken down for some reason.

And it’s a shame. Cause I wanted to download it.

I NEED those outfits. Holy hell.

[jolly torrent]

Yeah, I remember that.

Such a shame, too.

[jolly torrent]

@toxic pike Thank you!!!

[toxic pike]

🤘🏻 Yeah! Saw someone on reddit asking. it looked easy and was. Just some tedious clicking.

[solemn fog]

If we are playing fictional games why is every single planet almost frozen and yet food never goes bad. I wish it was more like captain Kirk and his crew never needing space suits. That there was a clothing ment just for the player that was good looking. And more body shapes the men don’t look muscular enough and hairstyles and facial hair. Just not enough choices.

And just why was the script written so poorly, Sarah says she wont judge you but that is all she does. Vasco says he contacted the lodge but doesn’t inform them what went down at Vargoes mine. And Walter goes from calling you a rock breaker to friend in a matter of seconds. Sarah treats you like a child “understood”. If this was the best writing for the game script they should’ve hired someone to refine it.

[jolly torrent]

Lol

[jolly torrent]

I didn’t even know you were a modder

[tender stump]

sounds great, let us know when you release this mod

[solemn fog]

Oh, I would love to release a mod, but unfortunately, the most I can do is play the game. I don’t own a laptop to create anything on the periodically. I just like to throw out questions about the game and see if any modders out there would like to take on the questions I have.

[toxic pike]

Just tiny mods so far! Working on a larger one to add POIs and quests around shipwreck hunting.

[solemn fog]

well, that sounds great. I can’t wait to see that one come out.😁

I would love to have a cleaning robot like from the Jetsons because honestly my crew they’re a slob. I walk through the mess hall and there’s always stuff all over the tables.,lol

[jolly torrent]

Nice. I would absolutely love the shipwreck hunting one. Funding the black box of the ship and offering it to any of the governing bodies (UC, Freestar, etc.). That would be dope.

[solemn fog]

You know it’s funny how the UC scans every ship and yet if you walk to the abandoned locations on Jemison there are spacers and other enimies. Just saying they should clean up their own backyard. And why can’t you get the governments to lock up those locations is it a conspiracy from the top?

[dusk steeple]

The scans only pick up if you have contraband right?

[toxic pike]

I'm excited about it. I'm working on a few features. Hoping for a first release I can do:

1. Several small wrecks that spawn in the radiant system. These will be mostly surface POIs, with randomized clutter, loot, some vanilla encounters, a few custom encounters.
2. A few large wrecks that will be dungeons, (think massive ship buried into a cliffside or crater) these can only be found via quest giver.
3. One quest giver NPC with voice acting (old ship captain that appears at bars, or a wandering ship historian) that you can bribe or persuade for potential coordinates of a shipwreck (sends you to my shipwrecks, and I will add patch for Batten's ship wrecks and any other community ones)

If I get that far, for a second version:

1. More wrecks, and a new way to find all the wrecks:
2. Meta-game for shipwreck hunting where you use a placeable ship board terminal to set scan modes for different types of signals, once you find a signal while flying through a system you can perform different analysis operations to hunt the evidence down into coordinates. Analysis operations will require a combination of unique resources such as found ship log fragments. Different wreck types will be associated with different evidence, but many will overlap, so you'll need to reference a manual that gives hints and do some deduction. I may do a toggle for an easy mode that removes some of the puzzle for players that don't like puzzles.

Probably several months for a first release to be fair, since I'm one person and have only made tiny mods so far, but I am learning really fast.

[surreal storm]

let me know if you need any help with the first part as my creations do this and there's no reason to gatekeep knowledge

[toxic pike]

Thank you! I will certainly reach out. I'm sure I will get stuck here and there. So far I'm moving along, hardest parts have just been goofy behavior of the creation kit haha.

@surreal storm when I do get to that point, maybe we can work together to build a small guide to help new modders building radiant POIs that want to add some of those features. I have a lot of experience in writing up technical documentation.

A lot of the stuff I'm finding is really out of date, or seems to be written when people were first learning the CK

[surreal storm]

sure, I don't see why not. I'm working on explorable oceans right now so I learned even more undocumented things

[mental estuary]

Oh wow...

[toxic pike]

Yeah I've been collecting all these little undocumented tips and guidance people give me across discord into a notion file. I'd love to empower other new modders as I learn, because the more people we get building good POIs, the more content we have to play!

[boreal osprey]

Oof, you bought the falcon? 😬

[untold field]

It looks like that, why?

[boreal osprey]

I got that same 3D model from CGtrader a year ago for a project and was going to upload a free version 😆 It's okay, not a big deal lol

[untold field]

I mean is there anything that stops you? Haha

[boreal osprey]

No. I've just been busy going through a career change so I haven't touched the CK in awhile. Working on a store for Titan which will be the main hub for all my Old Earth stuff. Mainly weapons but will have other stuff too.

[untold field]

I am not really a fan of people buying third party assets that have not been developed for Starfield specifically. As a free mod, yeah why not. But you can always see that it is not made by the creators request for their mod and they have to work around the available assets.

Still some of the assets look nice and I want to showcase that. I prefer a good looking mod made from a model from CGtrader over an original model that looks like ass 😄

But of course the best stuff is what people like Bub200 are doing. Original assets, fitting the game vibes, looking absolutely dope, making fun all around.

[tender stump]

Contraband and warrants, but not every Spacer has warrants because no witnesses.

[solemn fog]

I love mod’s and the wonderful people who create them. But if you are going to the trouble to make them please put the requirements and the mods that needed for your mod to work. I am not asking a lot but a person who has to look everything up on a phone it is a lot.

[jolly torrent]

I like this idea. I will definitely be downloading this once it hits production.

[jolly torrent]

Not to be a wet blanket, but I am the polar opposite. I wish this game had MORE 3rd party assets modded into it. Specifically from other Sci-Fi franchises that aren’t Star Wars related. God, there’s so many Star Wars mods, but little attention is paid to other franchises like Firefly or Stargate or Mass Effect. Hell, I’d be down with Tribbles infesting your ship. Lol.

But that’s just me.

https://creations.bethesda.net/en/starfield/details/41fc7098-df4b-4d4c-994b-61fc1420dad3/GF2___Suomi_Doll

I’m still laughing at the description of this mod. I need this modder to make more of these. Lol

[icy bramble]

Wow, wow

[sharp lynx]

The lizard of knowledge

[sleek cliff]

Bub200 cooks with their weapons.

Like, their lever action makes me want to go on a religious journey.

[jolly torrent]

😂 😂. Is it that good?

[sleek cliff]

Yes, their mods are a surreal experience

I’d almost give up drinking good.

[boreal osprey]

That's one thing. It's another thing when you just take a 3rd party asset, cram it through the CK and charge money for it.

[sleek cliff]

All I want is for Vtaw to finish their Miranda Lawson outfit, man.

[boreal osprey]

I've only played ME1, but is that Miranda from ME2?

[sleek cliff]

yep

https://tenor.com/view/miranda-lawson-mass-effect2-yvonne-strahovski-mass-effect-cerberus-officer-gif-27559142

[boreal osprey]

That outfit would be pretty sick

[sleek cliff]

It was up on creations for a bit THEN pulled.

Which is weird since the N7 armor is still there, so it’s not a legal thing

[sharp lynx]

Oh wait.... Is this in reference to like porting assets from other games?

Nevermind what I said lol

Carry on

[surreal storm]

[sharp lynx]

Indeed

[sleek cliff]

[tender stump]

don't assume one thing being pulled and another not isn't a legal thing, sometimes they just don't notice. I got a C&D from WB for some merch one time and there was WAY more blatant stuff on the same site that stayed up for months after.

[jolly torrent]

Yeah, THAT specific use case, I’m not cool with nor condoning. I wish people would legit learn how to use Blender

[jolly torrent]

Maaaaaannnnn, I wish. I wish a modder were brave and bold enough.

[jolly torrent]

Yes, she is. ME2 was the best one IMHO.

[jolly torrent]

HEY!!!! @surreal storm I still need to talk to you about our lil deal and payment!!!!

[slim sun]

It probably wasn't the Vtaw version that appeared on Creations, I think they stopped releasing anything for Starfield well before the CK arrived. There's a Miranda outfit on Nexus that might have made its way to Creations at some point, but it's just a retexture of the pajamas and/or the nude body. The pajama version is more funny than sexy, it looks like you ordered the Miranda outfit from Temu.
The Vtaw version doesn't have morphs, but aside from that really wouldn't take much work to turn into a standalone outfit, maybe a patron of Vtaw's could suggest they either finish it or give permission to someone else to do it.

[jolly torrent]

Please tell me you know Blender, big dawg.

[slim sun]

Sadly, I do not 😔

[jolly torrent]

Maaaaaaaaannnnnn, with the talent you have and your ability, if you knew Blender, you would be dangerous.

I think really only 510DeShawn and The_Wulfy are the only modders that know Blender, which is wild to me.

[tender stump]

Pfft, have you seen how much crime their mods enable? xtcrefugee is already dangerous.

[jolly torrent]

Lol. Sorry I wasn’t aware of the crime. Lol

I do know that @slim sun let me dance the night away in one of his mods that allowed dancing which I’m unsure why Beth didn’t have with the base game, but that’s another story for another time.

In fact I’m about to do some shore leave now in Neon and dance like it’s 1989.

People say this game was “made by a committee”, but that “committee” missed a lot of things like “immersion” and “interaction”. Smh.

[tender stump]

I've been looking for these lacks but I haven't found them yet. But I've only been playing for 2,500 hours, maybe I'll find them eventually.

[manic anchor]

Anybody here competent with crash logs while I smash my head into the wall?

I have officially lost it after two days

Some context: This crash only occurs while landing in Akila City from Akila orbit? (Yes I can land from anywhere outside of orbit, or land elsewhere and pop over planet side)

[sharp lynx]

whelp that's the last time I add anything for you.

[untold field]

Lmao

[sleek cliff]

Ah! Okay, I see, well, fingers crossed it’s finished someday.

Tank is the MASTER of Blending.

[little gate]

My Mod has been updated! “Starfield - The Fan Art Collection” now has 5 new artworks (17 in total) to hang up onto your walls in either your player homes or your ship habs! Just go into your Creations menu and Update, and then find them all under “Decorations/Posters”. And if you ever wanted an of them in your actual homes IRL, just look for them on Redbubble (user CrazyPencilCmx).

[tender stump]

Every single one of these is better than the official art (which is also great), and Bethesda should be paying you.

[sleek cliff]

The Starfield Akira one goes stupid hard.

Does anyone know if there's a mod to increase outpost budget on Xbox? I'm not looking to go crazy, but I'd like to do a bit more decorating without constantly running into the budget brickwall.

[jolly torrent]

I didn’t know that. I thought those two were the only ones who knew about Blender.

[sleek cliff]

[toxic pike]

How did I miss this old mod that makes docking visuals so much cooler ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYtrfGevV1g posts on nexus page sounds like it still works. I've got to grab this today.

@nocturne river & @jolly torrent I just put those berets in a mod I will add photos in a bit but they are in the recently updated Blue and green Flannels mod which I have renamed to Coloured Flannels and Berets.

Tan,Brown,Red,Purple and Olive Berets.

[jolly torrent]

I love Farscape

[jolly torrent]

Thank you!!!

[nocturne river]

Hot damn, awesome sauce man. Thanks!

[jolly torrent]

Dang it. I wish that could be ported to the console

[ruby dawn]

I am Also likely Going to put them in another mod later but I will leave them indefinitly, that one is far from completion.

[jolly torrent]

Thank you very much!

[ruby dawn]

Your welcome

[timid temple]

I bet a reliable 3D scanner is cheaper than the 3DS Max license 🤣

What even is blender

I make spoons

you could always see if those Leap sensors are still around. I played with a beta forever ago, manipulating the air is a bit weird but it had awesome potential

God I miss it so much 😥

[jolly torrent]

You and me both. I think I have one of the movies on DVD. Lol. I’m glad they released the movies afterwards because Sci-Fi channel did that show so dirty letting it end on a cliffhanger.

[manic anchor]

@crisp veldt Faction Story Expansion - Trackers Alliance was causing this. The crash log remained the same throughout, so broken NPC reference somewhere possibly?

[summer bough]

Yeah really, ending it on " Bad Timing" or something I think it was. I was so upset. Then they tried to bring some of the actors on to Stargate to appease us lol. 😆

[jolly torrent]

Oh, yeah, I remember that!!!!! 😂 😂

I wish we had Rygel the 16th in this game. Not even as a companion, but he could be just chillin on the ship.

Rygel the 16th was such a smart ass

[summer bough]

Rygel!! God I miss him and Pilot and Scorpy lol 🥺

If I knew more 3d, I'd probably make a Moya mod. 😉

[jolly torrent]

Oh, goddess. I would LOVE a Moya mod. Maaaan, that show was so ahead of its time.

I kinda based my character on Aeryn Sun, ngl.

Big Hint to Modders There’s more to sci-fi than just Star Wars.

[sharp lynx]

sadly there's only two people who use blender

[jolly torrent]

I didn’t know!!! Honest!!!

I love the snow flurries in New Atlantis. It doesn’t happen often, but it’s lovely when it does.

[sharp lynx]

lol where did you think the burgers and hotdogs I made come from? XD

clearly they're not all beef

I haven't seen any real chickens lying around.

[jolly torrent]

Lol. I thought you made them. I don’t know how all of that works. Lol. I’m not a modder.

[safe sorrel]

Aceles hotdogs! Which now begs the question, would aceles be kosher?

[jolly torrent]

I thought the point of Blender was to transfer 3rd party assets

Like from other games. I thought it was like one to one mapping.

[sharp lynx]

I'm just giving you a hard time lol

Blender is a 3d modeling softward

some folks use it to rip assets but it's primary use is to make things

[sharp lynx]

that's a good question

does the moss giant count as vegetarian?

[safe sorrel]

I’m not going to be able to eat in Starfield now till I know!

[jolly torrent]

I think there’s a conflict between Bard’s “Everyone has a name” mod and the Ecliptic/Crimson Fleet/ Spacers outfitted mod.

People aren’t named anymore. I guess I can see if I can move that further down in my LO. But that’s the last big mod I downloaded

Unless not everyone loaded in yet and I’m being obtuse. The names usually load in pretty quick.

As in the vid, the UC security officer has an actual name. So it kinda still works. Unless that’s an actual named NPC.

I’m just going to move it to the bottom of my LO and see if that works.

[jolly torrent]

Yay!!!! It works again!!!!

[jolly torrent]

YES!!!!!

[gilded brook]

Anyone have issues where Creations store (in-game) gives the following crap:

• "Lacking Permissions" error and failing to download OWNED mods
• Constantly having to "update" mods
• Creations being disabled after leaving the Creations store
• Creations bought on PC/Windows version do not transfer to Xbox

[umbral lava]

Thank you again starfield creators for the care and love with paid mods. Love using them

[cobalt garnet]

how can I get rid off decals on Shipparts... e.g. those yellow Stripes... they dont show up in Nifskope?

[timid temple]

are you sure you have your viewing settings in the CK to allow decals? They're under the "Markers" heading iirc

[cobalt garnet]

I was trying Nifskope... the CK is..
erm... not my thing... but sure I will try in CK once I figured out how to use it
