What does this mod do?
In a world where we have space ships but still no cars to drive, there's one crucial thing we require: reduced oxygen sprint costs. This mod offers a straightforward solution to reduce the oxygen consumption while sprinting. You have the flexibility to choose your preferred level of cost reduction. Select the version that suits your comfort.
Versions available
- 25% Cost Reduction
- 50% Cost Reduction
- 75% Cost Reduction
- 100% Cost Reduction (Sprinting is free. You can sprint without a break)
How to install?
The mod comes with 2 files you probably need. One main file and the StarfieldCustom.ini, if you don't already have one.
Game Folder
Move the content of the main mod folder, the BetterSprintCosts.txt into your Starfield folder, where your Starfield.exe is located.
Example: X:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Starfield
If you are a Vortex user, it should work automatically.
Ini Folder
Move the content of the "BetterSprintCosts - StarfieldCustom.ini" download, the StarfieldCustom.ini into your X:\Users\yourUserName\Documents\My Games\Starfield folder
Important If you are already using a mod, which comes with a StarfieldCustom.ini make sure you correct the ini file like this.
sStartingConsoleCommand=bat BetterSprintCosts;
or if you already other similar mods to this installed it can then look like this:
sStartingConsoleCommand=bat BetterSprintCosts; bat LessSpongyEnemies; fov 100;
If you notice, that some other text files with game changing settings no longer get loaded by the game. Merge all of the commands into one text file and add this one to the command line.
sStartingConsoleCommand=bat myNewAllInOneFile; fov 100;
How to Remove?
Delete the files from the specified folders.
