Initial version
Melius is a Starfield Wabbajack modlist originally based on JaeDL's excellent Starborn Royalty but now also has an optional profile based on Ascension - Gameplay Overhaul. Main aim is to make the game as enjoyable as possible, whilst improving graphics, audio and adding quality of life mods.
Stability, a list that works irrespective of whether you have the Shattered Space DLC and is performance friendly, are other key aims of this list.
I created this list based on my personal preferences and I'm sharing this so others can have a modded version of Starfield, without having to spend the time I did trying out different mods and working out the load order etc. However, please be aware that this is my first Wabbajack list I have shared, I have tested this as much as possible but there is a risk this might not work for everyone. I will endeavour to provide support in fixing any teething issues but I am just one person who has a full time job and life outside of doing this.
More of my mods: Advanced Hand Scanner - Reduces the number of scans required for plants and animals to 4 from 8. It you have a fancy scanner, I'm sure it doesn't need to scan things 8 times. Walk With Me - Speeds up walking speed to nearly match NPCs. Fair Ship Registration Fee - Reduces the registration cost for ships from 84% to a third of the ship's price. El Jefe Combat AI. Combat AI overhaul inspired by other such mods. Human Damage (Just a Flesh Wound - Bullet in the Head) Changes the damage multiplier for the different areas of body parts of humans to make the game more fun and rewards better aiming. Power Nap Speeds up the countdown timer when sleeping and waiting as much as possible without skipping numbers. The default setting seemed soooo slow. Gripe Fixes - Fixes several gripes I have with core gameplay elements; docking distance, ship loot distance, registration cost for ships, countdown timer when sleeping and waiting and walking speed. Better Spaceship Interaction Distance Increases docking, looting and cargo transfer distances for your spaceship. Melius Main Menu music replacer. Replaces the main music with a much moodier and darker sounding track. Pause Menu Melius. Replaces the default background in the pause menu with an image designed to be used with my Melius Wabbajack mod list. Starfield Menu Background. Replaces the main menu background with an animated starfield.
