Starfield Load Order Xbox & PC (Simple Guide)

[@ConsularOrozco]

Great video, thank you! After watching and reading through the comments I came up with this list based on the answers from @circuitscore 1. Bug fixes -Frame work mods 2. Structure and UI Mods -Quest Mods, Perk Mods, Cheat Mods 3. Environmental & Planets -Homes, Outposts, Audio, and some immersion mods depending what they do 4. Items -Mods that Add new items/gear 5. Gameplay -Some immersion mods depending what they do 6. Ship Mods 7. NPC’s and Creatures -Follower companions 8. Appearance -Replacer mods 9. Textures -Visual Mods This helped me keep myself organized while going through the load order. Hope it helps!

[@HardHitterGaming0372]

Never have I modded any game. I have nearly 80 mods currently in use, along with a few Console Commands in use in Starfield... I read these comments and understand the communities struggle. In all honesty, i watched this video maybe 18 times and used the templet set forth by you, it helped (A-LOT). In the past week I've spent more time trial and erroring the Mods in the game than playing...But worth it so far. The only issues I'm having is with ships (ship+/iconic ships) ones that add custom ships mostly. The second ones that I'm trying not to mess up is the (gear) ones. mods, surprisingly i have gear separated in 2 sections SEPERATE meaning I'll have skins for weapons before my ship stuff, then ill have weapons after ships butt it works. I like using gear and outpost Mods mostly so where I place them is crucial, however I digress and exit with a much deserved slow applaud. Ps maybe make an in(IN) dept video on complex mods?

[@circuitscore]

I highly appreciate the insight! Yeah its not always a one size fits all kind of situation a base load order helps but sometimes you will still need to trial and error. That is a good idea though. Ill look into doing a more in depth video on complex mods and how to load them.

[@YQualityo]

Thank you for the detailed description of the load order, the order can be important and this is useful information! The Color Filter Removal mod is Awesome and the game is much more beautiful with it! And that's how Starfield looks AWESOME! As I saw about two million people use it now on Xbox, so it is a must Mod for Starfield. Again, thanx man for the detailed description!

[@circuitscore]

No problem! Color filter removal is such an amazing mod. I don't think Ill ever be able to go back to vanilla now haha.

[@dkindig]

Color Filter Removal is pretty much mandatory, vanilla looks so bad, I don't know what they were thinking. I'm on PC and I've been running 'Neutral LUTs' since the beginning of September. Also running a mod to reduce overall fogginess and one that makes porthole glass as clear as the cockpit glass.

[@LadyAnnt]

Thaaaaaank you. I was having lots of issues. Melee attacks were slow to hit sometimes arms would be missing the game would look darker( had to asjust brightness), my feet would be smoking i could go and on. Your list made my game better. Thaaaaank you.

Hey, just wanted you to know you really helped me! I was having all sorts of issues with quest that I completed staying active. Which would confuse the quest arrows and lead back to my ship instead of what quest I was trying to do. But after following your load order I went back in and everything was perfect! Thanks again.

[@ZombiUnikorn3]

What about adding followers/companions, do they fall under NPC's & Creatures? What about Homes/outposts? What about "Cheat" mods? What about "quest" mods? Immersion? Visuals and audios? Framework mods?

[@circuitscore]

Follower companions will fall under NPC & Creatures, Homes and Outposts go toward the end of of the Environmental Mods, Cheat Mods are considered UI Mods & Structures however keep them near the end of this category, Quest Mods will go towards the end of Structure and UI Mods depending on what the quest mods do specifically, Immersion is pretty general but most likely under Environmental or potentially gameplay considering what it does, Visual mods go under Textures, Audio go under Environmental towards the bottom, Framework mods go under Bug Fixes towards the end of that category.

Late to the party - but damn, this was a good one. Your concise treatment of load order categories [with examples] was much appreciated! I've been trying to nail this down for a while; while there are several guides for Fallout 4 on this exact issue, I've been having trouble finding more than fragmented pieces in conversations for Starfield thus far. It hasn't seemed to "Just Work"[tm] the way it has with previous Bethesda games. Thank you very much for the well structured breakdown. Subscription Achieved.

[@circuitscore]

Thank you! I tried to make this tutorial as simple and easy to follow as possible while covering as much as possible.

[@4inchFury]

This helped a lot, thanks! On a side note, why did Bethesda not include an auto sorting for the mods? Did they learn nothing from Skyrim?

[@circuitscore]

No problem! I know right! PC modding has automatic sorting called LOOT. Idk why Bethesda cant figure this out in the last decade.

[@MrUltramarine21]

This video will be super helpful. I had at one point most of the background sound go all weird on me when i was not sure what order to put the mods in. So I have just put all the big stuff first and that seemed to sort it out. Though occasionally I've noticed Sarah's outfit reverts back to the original colours. Hopefully this video should help me sort that out and know what to do if i download more mods ❤

[@circuitscore]

If you have issues with Sarah's outfit not loading correctly try to hard reset your xbox by turning it off and pulling the power cord for 30 seconds and turning it back on. If this doesnt work you will have to redownload and install every single mod. This happened to me was not fun to reinstall everything but it did fix the issues I was having.

[@jaredlamb9743]

This was a huge help! I put down Starfield after about a month or so because it was just too boring. I only just today learned that SF has mods on Xbox, so I went searching. There is another channel that has a SW mod list but he doesn't go into the specifics behind the load order. Typically I will just copy mod for mod and figure the gameplay should work for me if it works for the youtube creator. Your video though gave me the help I needed to take the mods you have but also add in other mods that I saw in other videos as well as mods I saw just scrolling. If my load order works with the mods I have selected for Xbox/X do you mind if I put them in as a comment? I don't just want to assume.

[@shadowwalker9789]

its called vortex and it does have the loot program and it does see creation mods as well and will order them according to priority you can also set to when it loads either early or later in your load order. it uses a ASI loader for xbox gamepass version script extender loosely works but only with Nexus mods version of them paid mods are more hardcoded and built to be put into the game seemlessly rather then needing a load order or organizer. I can be wrong but Looked around and put together discussions as long as you dont load a mod that edits the same npc files and areas the paid mod uses most of the time doesnt conflict.

[@circuitscore]

I have an Xbox and also a nice gaming PC. This would be an essential tool for anyone who uses creations on PC. I will have to test this out in Vortex. Appreciate the comment and advise!

[@marknorthrup4897]

This is a big help! Thank you. I was watching, taking notes, and cracking up from your comments all at the same time! I took your advice and stepped into the mods slowly and I think I have downloaded only five so far. I have had no adverse changes to my game other than getting more frequent warnings about running out of save room. I haven't thought even at all about the load order until now. I don't think that I know how to change the order once it has been established. Do I just have to uninstall everything and then reinstall? Or can I just drag them to a new order. Sorry, I haven't tried anything yet because I just finished watching this. Thanks again for your help. I now am beginning to see how mods can really make a game better. All new to me. (i'm old and slow apparently)

[@circuitscore]

All good gotta start somewhere with modding! I remember when I was just a young pup haha. So in the creations menu (assuming you are using controller) press Y to get to your load order and then LB to sort you mods individually up and down. Once you exit the creation menu the game will prompt that a new load order has been loaded. Also I didn't mention it in this video but make sure to make a vanilla fresh save just in case your run into any issues.

[@ardentdfender4116]

I think you may need to add for future videos something concerning mod updates in the Creation Store as they are some weirdness with the store where it could seem bugged. In the creation store it will list an Update category seemingly for mods that either need updating or mods that were updated. But you go to mod page it list nothing about being updated, yet on the bottom left of mod page it shows Update for that mod. So something weird is possible going on there. When I updated the mod it changed the load order of that mod and list it as if I just installed it. To not screw your self and your mod load list it seems you have to make sure your mod list is saved to Bathesda servers and especially if you play on multiple PC’s.

[@circuitscore]

That is an excellent idea! Yeah the creation store is very buggy in classic Bethesda fashion haha. I also noticed updating the mods does not work properly. I had to delete the mod that needed updating and completely redownload it. But using the load order backed up to their servers Im sure not a lot of people know about.

[@gkw9882]

[@circuitscore]

Thanks for the sub! Assuming you are talking about he Infinite Boost Pack mod I would put it under the Gameplay category. If you are still having issues with it I would add it under the UI and Structure category near the bottom of this category since its also considered a cheat mod.

[@adrielsalvador3246]

so it goes with some logic, besides the order, cz I've having issues with my xbox for example, i installed Rabbit's Real Lights GAGARIN i started to have a lot of frame drops, it makes everything look great but sometimes crashes the game too, i was putting it second last (on last i have color filter removal) at the end i had to removed it, idk if it should go last or kinda above

This might be a dumb question, but would specific mod patches go at the top, below the respective mods, or at the very end of the load order? Ex. Ship Vendor Framework Iconic Ships SVF Capability Patch - Iconic Ships I assume based on this framework would go in category 2. UI & Structure but then I add Iconic Ships in the ship category, where would you throw the patch in?

[@circuitscore]

Exactly! So top to bottom starting with Bug Fixes. Reading through the documentation on the Ship Vendor Framework the author recommends putting these towards the end your load order this this order: ShipVendorFramework.esm (SVF Capability Patches, if any) (SVF Generic Patches, if any) (SVF Compatibility Patches, if any) I would try to put them all in the ship category near the end all next to each other with Iconic Ships loading last in the load order.

[@SilentDave]

So I just watched this, and readjusted my load order accordingly, with the exception of textures. Does clothing count as textures, or appearance? Great vid btw.

[@circuitscore]

Thank you! Those type of mods would go under appearance if they are just reskinning the game.

[@LordCritish]

Thanks for the guide! It's always tricky to get the load order right. Even following a good, logical ordering it's still a struggle to eliminate conflicts that crash the game where they were just working fine a day ago. Mod Organizer, LOOT, and xEdit on PC are somewhat helpful. I can't imagine how to get this all working well on Xbox.

[@circuitscore]

No problem! Yeah there is always going to be an issue somewhere even with solid logic in place. Lot of trial and error. Bethesda really needs to come out with a built in LOOT for Xbox and creation menu on PC as well. That would solve so many issues people are having.

[@CinthiaMcDaniel-Smith]

I'm on Xbox and I have mods on a newer character because I don't add them on my original account, but for some reason, I'm having issues with them. I have bought the TG's Luxury home mod, and I've added it with so many things and it won't load most of the time, unless it's by itself, so not sure if I'm screwing up the order. It will also, automatically add it to the very top of the list, everytime and then not be clicked. All I'm adding with is a mod called Wonderous weightlessness [All resources Edition] which makes resources not have weight, a mod that adds an extra 5% XP, because I'm trying to level the character up, I have a mod that adds unlimited credits to my ship, I have turrets for my outpost and Starborn guards for my outpost, and more space to build on outpost mod, which removes rocks and some trees, and those are all by inquisitor and that's it and only one or two will load. I thought I was adding them in the right order. Can you suggest the order please, because I stink at this.. 😂 I've been gaming for over 45 yrs and I usually don't do alot of mods, so I thought once I've pretty much finished Starfield and down to only mission boards quest, I decided to try some mods on another character and now they are stressing me, because I've literally been trying to do this for 2 days. ugh 😂

[@circuitscore]

Building type mods would go in the Environmental and Planets near the bottom of that category, I believe Wonderous Weightless would go under UI Mods and Structure since they are a Cheat type mod, 5% XP would also go in the UI Mods and Structure, Unlimited credits would go under UI Mods and Structure since this is a cheat type mod as well, Outpost mods would go under gameplay. Let me know if this works. I might have to to an expanded load order video to run through some of the sub categories.

While I know from the vid 1-10 you list how to load order the mods, it can still be somewhat confusing in deciding is thus mod listed under a environment or does it go under Planets 🤔. So you just make a guess as to which. So in follow-up a bit of clarity could be given to this in explanation. It would simply be easier if the game itself could decide how to correctly and properly list the mod load order with some great intelligence, but since we all have to do it manually there is a huge change many of us simply don’t get it right for many reasons even having guided explanations.

No problem! Gear and replacers will depend on what the mod does. For example if its a new weapon/gear it will go under Items, if its a skin over an existing weapon/gear it will go under Appearance mods, Perk Mods go under Structure and UI

I’m still fighting the Rev-8 bug with not appearing after purchase I have 20 mods to shut off and on to try and figure it out

[@opensesame.1968]

I’m on Xbox S and I was wondering. How many mods should I do at a time? Do I add them all at once? Or do I download 5 or 10 at a time and restart the Xbox to avoid any crashes?

[@opensesame.1968]

Btw it’s a New Game Save. Havent touched it, wanna put the mods on first, hence the question

[@circuitscore]

You can load practically as many mods as you want as far as I can tell. At least on my Xbox Series X that is. I would assume it would be similar for the S. And yes its always good practice to perform a full restart of the Xbox to avoid crashes and start fresh.

[@opensesame.1968]

@@circuitscore alrighty thank you!! one more question, I’m having some serious crashing in akila city. I’m pretty sure it’s cause I have like 8 crew members on deck. It’s the mission for Sam coe when you first meet him. Have you also had that issue before?

I have not had this issue however I keep my crew member team smaller than most people.

Hello, Sooo... im trying to figure out why the smarter spacesuit auto-hide is not working. Here's the list of mods i have in the order of which i have them: 1. Starfield community patch. BTW it deleted all of the existing saves i had. 2. Astrolabe. 3. Character boost. 4. Unlimited resources. ( dont judge 3 & 4 ) 5. New atlantis redone. 6. New atlantis redone patch. 7. High res ads and signs. 8. High res named NPC's. 9. Hair redone. 10. High res eyes. 11. All ship parts unlocked. 12. Sarah outfit replacer. 13. Smarter spacesuit auto-hide. 14. Vanilla flashlight improved. 15. Color filter removal. As far as i can tell, everything else is working. Any help would be appreciated.

[@circuitscore]

You could try to place it higher in the load order under gameplay however there is a chance this mod is currently broken since starfield just updated to accommodate for the Shattered Space DLC. It might need to be updated for the latest version of the game.

[@Pandora-fy1bi]

Thanks for the video. I wrote it all down as I have never used mods much. I have a request for an instructural video on saving the game. First I was advised to disable all saves in the settings which I did with some hesitation. Then I was advised not to use the quick save, but just the save. I like to use a quick save before going into a high combat situation. Now I am getting a screen popup telling me to delete some of my saves. I only had about 10. I deleted that down to six and I am still getting the popup message. Just how many saves is too much? Why do they give the option of quick save if you can't use it? I have played many games and have never had a problem with saves. I have played Fallout 3 and 4, Elder scrolls, No Man Sky and many more, so I am not new to gaming. I am on Xbox S. Please do a video not only for me, but for new players or anyone who is confused about the save function. I am at level 83 and don't want to mess up my game. Thanks so much and hope you will address this.

[@circuitscore]

It is recommended to have a manual save prior to modding the game that you can revert back to just in case! I dont have any issues with Quicksave. I use it all the time. As for how many save you can have will depend on how much cloud space its using. When I sync my game between my Xbox and PC sometimes it tells me I'm out of cloud space although I think I currently have around 25 save files. I could look into doing a video on it though!

[@Pandora-fy1bi]

Thank you so much for answering. I felt so dumb even asking about this. I am keeping my saves down to to five. Would having eleven outposts have anything to do with it? I would think the cloud would have more space for saves with a game as large as Starfield. I only have one mod right now which is the Digipick mod. I got tired of so many things to open. I trust your advice and look forward to a video on this subject. Thanks again for your hard work.

[@vitalmind]

Where would you put something like darkstar universe:crossfire

[@circuitscore]

Id try to put it into the Gameplay category.

[@MalignantBeing]

Still can’t get my load order to work. I’ve got characters missing body pieces and some outfits when I wear them make my character’s body partially disappear

[@circuitscore]

Try to follow my other video to reset your mod list if you are on Xbox if your still having issues. PC is similar but doesn't require you to pull the power cord.

[@theknightly1]

Okay I looked for other peoples questions and still not sure I have the proper answer here, what about mods that apply specifically to Outpost building, such as adding to the building menu in particular and also specifically increasing build radius? They seem like they'd be either environmental or gameplay perhaps with argument for item depending on what exactly is in the build menu, any advise?

[@circuitscore]

Outpost mods are tricky. If the mod expands the Outpost building menu I would try to add that towards the end of the UI Mods & Structure. If that doesn't work try to add it to the Gameplay category. As for expanding the radius of outpost I would add that to the end of Environmental & Planets category.

[@eMtotheeF]

Can you see in creations (on Xbox) which mods disable achievements? Cannot find anything about which mods disable achievements. Mods like cheat room disable them, in description it says cheat. But I installed one mod and a message came when loading the game that achievements are disabled. Forgot the name but it was not something like cheat room or anything like that. Can you see somewhere if they are disabled? Or when I have some mods installed from which I’m sure that they don’t disable cheats like vulture and escape. And the hyla mansion with the new starborn armor and the other one from the same author and I install a cheat mod and that will disable achievements. But when I disable them and delete are the achievements re-enabled again? Anyone that can help me out here? Sorry for the lengthy comment Thank you!

[@circuitscore]

As far as I can tell only mods that specifically state they are Achievements Friendly don't disable Achievements. Unfortunately if you are getting heavily into mods you might have to accept the fact that achievements will be disabled. For this reason I use a modded save and a save without mods.

[@cyruscolson5302]

I was wondering what about mods that are labeled as Cheats in the Creator description. Do those go under patches or structure or something else?? Idk where to put those. I don’t want to screw it up. Thank you

Hard reset my xbox shutting it down and pulling the power cable for a few seconds, then turn on load the game and redownload and enable all mods. I ended up taking a picture of my load order and reinstalling everything fresh in the order I had it.

[@LordRage13]

Question. There are many shipbuilder framework mods. Many patches. Which one should I use to get creators custom ships? The original? So many patches. Damn confusing

[@circuitscore]

That one is probably the mod confusing mod in the entire creations catalog. I always start with the original mod first. Check the documentation of the patches. A lot of those will tell you a load order they recommend at the bottom.
