Abyssal is a work in progress mod list for Starfield. While it is currently a relatively small list with few changes, it will be an everchanging list with an eventual focus reached once modding tools and capability are expanded upon (and hopefully an eventual Wabbajack release once MO2 support is fully available/out of beta).

Changelogs
Version 0.0.1.0
Added some new INI changes and some QoL mods to make the game run a bit smoother/faster. Also added some misc INI changes for the same reasons!
This page will serve as a repository for our very early in progress Starfield mod list. This list is very very early in progress so please do not view this as a final product. If you have played one of our other modlists before (Capital Punishment, Nostalgia, Path of the Incarnate, etc) then welcome back!
How the list stands now is nowhere near final or a part of our end vision. To be honest, we don't know what our end goal will be yet without the appropriate tools. We do know that Starfield is a game we want to make a list for and that when the time comes, we want to compile something better than any of our previous works.
While we do not have the ability to post a Wabbajack just yet (pending further modding support), this page will serve as a location for the StarfieldCustom.ini and our installation guide! Final Note: None of this would be possible without the hard work of the many mod authors or the people who have work alongside me during development. They have all sacrificed their free time to develop and release the works associated with this list, and absolutely free of charge. Please take the time to endorse some of these authors, donate to them if you can, or send them some kind feedback!
PLEASE READ BEFORE INSTALLING 1.) Follow our Installation Guide to avoid any installation issues 2.) If you do run into issues, come visit us at our Discord 3.)DO NOT bother Starfield discords or other modders/mod teams about troubleshooting issues. Even if you think your issue is due to a certain mod or the game itself, we handle all of our support internally and other discords will likely either turn you to us or disregard your help question entirely. 4.) We do not handle support in the comment section here. Again, visit our Discord or Help Pages above for support
