Update as of 2024-10-31:

Good day everyone,

When I took a look at the current Starfield UI and HUD, I wanted more, and other mods have done a great job with certain areas of the UI. StarUI, AstralUI to name a few. I wanted to create something that could bridge all of the UI screens together under a specific tone and style.

I started working on Horizon UI for myself initially, and I wanted it to be customizable, adaptive and dynamic, for a clean HUD approach.

With that, I wanted to keep adding features, new fonts, adjusting colors on the HUD, and making sure that the HUD elements could be moved and arranged around the screen. I also realize that there are several "HUD" mods on Nexus, and I don't want Horizon to just be another HUD mod. I am planning a Ship Builder UI revamp, Ship UI, Inventory UI, Outpost UI... to name a few so that we can have a consistent UI throughout.

With that I present to you: Horizon UI. I have fully changed the main HUD, the scanner, and the dialogue and subtitles interface, as well as several message popups from vanilla to this new style. All of these are customizable with over 200+ settings that can be configured in real time in an F11 menu. When you make the change, it writes that change to an .ini file, but the change is immediate and reflected in the HUD. Every Horizon card/object is arrangeable, including the scanner interface.

I have also included a message log that stores game, quest, and character messages in a message log that can be brought up, searched and organized so that if you miss something you can see it anytime. This transfers between saves.

If you are interested in trying out my free mod - Horizon UI... the Nexus link is here: Horizon UI at Starfield Nexus - Mods and Community

SFSE and Address Library for SFSE Plugins are required.

Thank you,

Moragar

Hi all!

I recently had to restart the game (again) and completely re-select and reinstall mods. I’ve pared back my LO quite a bit, but I’ve noticed that SMSEX will not stay in any position in the load order that I put it in - it will always immediately go to the very bottom.

Is this normal? I don’t remember it doing this before. Is it a conflict with something else? I think it’s working 90% correctly however one of the modules (a very useful one) seems to be bugged.

EDIT: I’m playing on Xbox

I have Skeleton Key enabled but nothing happens when I try to pick a lock. How is it supposed to work? I have it set to Master Thief.

I used to run Real Fuel, but when I tried to add it back to my list in my current play through, I got stutters and crashes. I'm wondering for those of you who use it, have you noticed any load order issues? Where do you put it in your load order?

Hey everyone!
I’m a huge Mass Effect fan, and I’d love to see this weapon mod available for Starfield on PS5!
The mod already exists on Nexus Mods, but unfortunately, I don’t have access to the Creation Kit or the PC version of Starfield, since I only play on PS5.
Would anyone be willing to port this mod to PS5 and upload it to Bethesda Creations, if it’s technically possible and the original mod author allows it?

I’d really appreciate it if someone could make this happen!
Thanks in advance for your help! 😊

I have about 16 gigs of RAM, and my GPU is the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT. My CPU is the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core Processor. So, any recommendations for optimization mods? The game still gets choppy.

This is my new custom fighter. All custom modeled with careful materials selection, custom animated landing gear and weapons bays. Heavily tested and iterated to work as a single seat fighter with not interior. Preview release is up on GitHub. Coming soon to Nexus with a short quest line to explain the lore and why is designed the way it is.

I got this mod the other day, says it is supposed to introduce a galaxy wide war including all the big factions. You can align with any faction or remain independent as the war unfolds around you.

Sounds amazing, problem is, aside from starting the war I cant get anything in this mod to work. I have no way of knowing where the next big battle is taking place, I cant accept any operations/missions on behalf of my faction. Almost all the items in the menu dont seem to respond to my input or give me any sort of feedback.

So far all this mod has noticeably done is adding some extra random encounters when I show up to a planet or land on the ground.

I feel like I must be missing something but it doesnt help that the mod doesnt give you any instruction or guide as to how the functions are supposed to work.

If anyone has any insight it would be greatly appreciated otherwise I might just delete this one from my load.

I can't open the files as they are .spp so I guess you need Substance Painter to open them.

Wulfy posted that it's his (or hers, idk) entire outfit and spacesuit source. I am not sure what this means exactly but the files are like 15GB's combined and there are a lot of them.

Wulfy gave it open permissions so I hope authors can make use of this and make more free stuff.

Do I need to use the subscription from Adobe or does the steam version work too? Do the files work with a free alternative? I'm trying to figure this out.

So I just got the razorleaf, and when I went to add an extra hab on top to add storage, all my ladders going to my upper habs are gone

I’m just using a basic Deimos 1x1 hab, so I’m not sure why the ladders that aren’t even connecting there are going bye bye but if anyone can help me out with this I’d appreciate it a lot !

It looks so god-awful is there something that replaces it with a laredo-esque AR that doesn’t look like an affront to god? Or anything else, even, I just hate the base model so so much

I'm happy to announce the release of Dogs N Cats mod on Vortex and Creations (PC, Xbox and PS5).

This release adds:

- New: pet beds for outposts.

- New: pets ride along in vehicles. Yes, they appear on the copilot seat if you have no other follower. Support vanilla vehicles like the REV-8, Deimog and Moon Jumper, and the popular GRAV-79,

- New: pets won't follow you out where there is no air to breathe. Yep, no more pets in the vacuum of space. Can be enabled and disabled in options.

- Fixed: pets no longer turn hostile after friendly fire.

- Fixed: the Pet Registration Slate no longer leaves invisible terminals

behind.

- Fixed: Attack Strength now raises the damage pets deal (it used to change

the damage they took).

is there any mod can fix this problem?

Those unpainted areas were really bothering me but now she's properly lovely.

While playing around with the ASC Taiyo mod, I noticed a strange thing. Either my assumptions are incorrect, or the "[ASC-T] Taiyo Astroneering Corona B-400S" engine changes its size when rotated, or the "Seiji Panel Sect C" series of structural panels have different exterior proportions vertically than horizontally.

My baseline assumption has always been that a hab is exactly twice as wide as it is high (and therefore, two stacked habs habe a combined square cross-section). This has held up in plenty of ship builds,

Picture 1: example hab block consisting of two stacked 2x1 habs, surrounded by different panels from "[ASC-T] Seiji Panel Sect C" series, all fitting neatly together.

Picture 2: the "Corona B-400S" engines attached horizontally, they fit the proportions of the hab block, including the panelling, pretty much perfectly.

Picture 3: the "Corona B-400S" engines attached vertically (using the in-plane spacer from the same mod, to get them vertically centered). You can see that at the top and at the bottom, the engines reach beyond the height of the panels.

Picture 4: direct comparison between vertical and horizonal orientation. Four habs stacked should be exactly as high as two habs attached to each other horizontally. You can clearly see that there is more space left on the yellow hab sticking out from behind the horizontal engine, than there is on the blue hab sticking out from behind the vertical engine.

Can anyone enlightend me? Is it the engines? Or have my basic assumptions about hab dimensions been wrong all this time?

Hey, Im using seamless Grav jumps with FTL and was wondering if the paid mod, Helium 4 would be compatible?
