Starfield - Mods deploy, but nothing happens in-game

[IATMG]

- Which version of Vortex are you using? (e.g. 1.8.0)

1.9.3

 

- Which game are you modding and which game store did you purchase it from? (e.g. Skyrim SE from GOG)

Starfield via Gamepass

 

- Which mods are you trying to use?

Shots from Vortex

 

 

- What steps did you take before you encountered the error?

No error, but nothing happens in the game either. Also have the custom.ini in Documents originally for the custom FOV.

Has the following code:

[Camera]
fFPWorldFOV=115
fTPWorldFOV=115

[Display]
fMaxAnisotropy=16
bEnableNewBloom=0.0
fBloomGaussianKernelMinScale=0.0
fBloomGaussianKernelPower=0.0
fBloomUpsampleBlendFactor=0.0
fLegacyBloomAmountScale=0.0
fNewBloomAmountScale=0.0

[Archive]
bInvalidateOlderFiles=1
sResourceDataDirsFinal=

[General]
bEnableMessageOfTheDay=0

 

 

- What is the specific error message you received? (Provide a screenshot if possible)

None. It's like it's deploying into the ether.

 

Thanks!

Pro tip : check if Vortex uses hardlink deployment.

[IATMG]

That's what I'm using in Vortex. It's in one of the screenshots. Thanks for the reply! Should I be using the other style?

Same problem here. Mods installed, nothing changed.

Vortex DOES use hardlink deployment. Maybe shed some light on that, @Benmc20?

 

Since this morning, I get a red warning: "Deployment method no longer supported"

Are we supposed to use "Move deployment (Experimental)" ?

I've seen that there is very limited support for Gamepass version of Starfield. Maybe that's the issue?

Here is how I use Vortex for Starfield : https://imgur.com/a/YjDjc8G

Yeah, that's how I have it too!

Could it be possible that the mods/Vortex don't actually work at all for Gamepass, and they just throw no errors?

Because I swear that seems to be the case. I have installed a low textures pack and a no intro mod, and nothing seems to be active.

From what I have seen, this 100% Game Pass related. STEAM users don't seem to have this issue.
