BAT MODS
Premade copies of the files mentioned in this article are available for download under Miscellaneous files: Here
A lot of mods are currently installed via bat files, which are called via ini edits.
However, the way I’m seeing people recommend installing multiple of these mods together is bugged.
A lot of instructions say to chain the mod bat files in a manner such as this:
sStartingConsoleC ommand=bat mod1; bat mod2; bat mod3
THIS DOES NOT WORK!!!
The reason this does not work isn’t entirely clear. But the issues are easy to reproduce, where commands are seemingly randomly skipped.
Instead, I recommend the following for installing bat mods:
Instead of calling all the bat files at once, we will call a single custom bat file.
This custom bat file will call each mod’s bat file on its own line.
1. Find the correct ini
1a. – Steam
Go to:
Documents\My Games\Starfield
Open StarfieldCustom.ini
(Create the file if needed)
1b. – Xbox/Gamepass
Go to:
C:\Xbox Games\Starfield\Content
Open Starfield.ini
2. Add the following to your ini file:
[General]
sStartingConsoleC ommand=bat mods <--- Get rid of the space after the 'C' if you copy this text. (Nexus changes the text if I do not include the space)
3. Now we will create a new file called mods.txt
This new file MUST be in the Starfield root directory(same folder as Starfield.exe)
4. Inside of mods.txt add a line for each of your bat mods, like this:
bat super_cool_mod
bat another_mod
bat deadly_difficulty
bat deadly_difficulty_extras
And that's it! This setup will ensure all bat mods load properly!
In the future, when installing additional bat mods, you simply add them on a new line in mods.txt
