UPDATES TO THE GAME WILL STOP SFSE FROM LOADING THE MOD. (ASI MIGHT STILL LOAD. CHECK IT'S LOG AFTER STARTUP.) PLEASE HAVE PATIENCE AND DON'T SPAM COMMENTS/BUGS WITH "THE GAME UPDATED, PLS FIX". You'll also need to wait for SFSE to update so there's that too. Just have patience when the game updates. I'll be able to update this within a day of SFSE updating. Alternatively you can try the ASI version. It will still load, it just may fail to patch what it needs to. ALWAYS CHECK THE LOG!
The plugin will create "<Name of file>.log" in the same directory as the DLL/ASI on startup if it's in the right spot. Meaning "Starfield/Data/SFSE/Plugins/<Name of file>.log" or wherever you put the ASI. This does not log to the SFSE logs!
Troubleshooting:
If you don't get the log at all, you're probably missing the VC++ 2022 redist. (This is an official installer from Microsoft, you can find the link to it here.)
Or maybe you didn't put it in the right location: "Starfield/Data/SFSE/Plugins/<Name of file>.dll" (This and SFSE need to be in the game dir, not the save dir!) CHECK YOUR PATHS!
If you get the log but the last line is "AoB scan returned no results, aborting". This would typically mean the game version changed and the AoB needs updating. You might also see this on GP.
GP is untested. It either works, or it doesn't. If the original script from the CE table does then this probably will as long as you have something that can load it. If it doesn't, oh well. I'm not capable of testing it on GP so won't be supporting it.
Mod Organizer doesn't install it correctly. I believe it incorrectly tries to put it in the save dir 'Data' folder. (This is why one of the steps above says check your paths.... always check to make sure it was placed where it should have been.)
Names/Text disappearing? That's not this mod. Some ESP/ESM mods this like this cause issues like that. (Read the known issues there.)
If you have issues with getting it working, please for the love of Greg read the above steps/description, check your paths, etc, and copy the log contents here. And please provide details on things so I don't have to ask!:
Your game version.
SFSE version.
Whether you're using SFSE or an ASI loader.
What ASI loader if you went that route.
Where you put the file.
THE LOG CONTENTS.
And so on. The more info the easier it is to figure out what went wrong.

Q: What about grav drives? Multiple drives break the game. Distance drops to 0LY and you get a "you need additional grav thrust" error. You can however ignore the weight limit on them with this mod.

thanks for these various updates and fpr keep SF modding going :) I see the game update isn't a huge. DO you think most unupdated mods are likely to continue functioning fine unless needing an SFSE realignment? Just wondering how long to give it before plunging into the next update cycle! Realise you can' speak for all mdos of course
Shield keeps going offline, taking away power and putting it back doesnt help. It does not come back over time. I have even tried to edit ship and take away or add shields. It comes and goes and I cannot figure out why. It mostly goes. It does not regenerate either.
Ok, but, you didn't mention anything about how many shields you are using and that's all that really matters here. If you've got more than one shield then this is working exactly as intended. All this does is let you bypass the error. The game has various issues with ships that go over the limits, which is probably why the limits are there in the first place. I can't fix any of those oddities either.
Well shoot how should I start this. There are only a few logs in the .dll folder, not one from your mods, I installed all of your mods hoping I could make a kick arse ship, but no dice, I'm on Steam v1.7.36 and used both MO2 and currently on Vortex because basically the same issues were taking place. None of the Plugins were loading using the plugin.txt mod, all installed correctly by me anyways, not sure if MO2 and or vortex were not doing that correctly. But i did checked all the pertinent folders and the .dll files are there, same thing happens with the .asm files! After modding many games in the past decade or two this is troublesome. I do run mostly bat files now a days, they do work 99% of the time and I'm using the batloader mod that does a lot of it for me. This is just my 2 cents, I will wait for the developers to release the creation kit hopefully in the next few years and hope that the mods I really like such as these ones do work propertly without having to become a modder or developer!
Are your mods useful? As in; Can adding more shields or Weapons via these mods have any affect on the game play and space combat? So if I add as many shields and weapons a I want, does it make me more powerful and harder to defeat or is this purely decorative?
Yes, though not airways in a good way. I've seen some say they wind up with less shields off they exceed the vanilla limit. These mods work better for visual purposes than functional ones.
Hello everyone; thank you for your mods, little question from noob, when updating, I replace the dll file and do I have to delete the old log file? Thank's...
Has anyone else encountered an issue where shields don't regenerate during battle? Like even if you fly kilometers away and haven't been hit for minutes the shields still won't regenerate. I have 4 shield generators installed and the power requirements quite literally go off the charts but I still need to do some troubleshooting to see if bringing those powers level back down (like having just two instead of four) will solve the issue but until I do, I was just wondering if anyone else has noticed that.

The answer to both is they are already changeable by:

setgs fSpaceshipLandableMaxSizeZ 5000

fantastic mod. I personally have x28T shields and its fantastic!
Thank you, Synthlight!!!
- Weapon-Power-Mod - ok
- Reactor-Count-Mod - ok
Engine Power & Shield Count with viruses (windows can't even download, blockes)Either way, out of my control and not something that affects me so....

Ive used up to 6-8. You also have to have enough power which means you need the reactor mod aswell.
really looking forward to an update
An ASI loader or SFSE are the only ways to use this.
If logs aren't appearing either:
- The dlls aren't in the right folder. (You didn't tell me the path you're checking so I can't verify it.)
- ASI loader isn't installed right.
- Or you aren't launching the game through SFSE.
One of these must be true.Are your mods useful? As in; Can adding more shields or Weapons via these mods have any affect on the game play and space combat? So if I add as many shields and weapons a I want, does it make me more powerful and harder to defeat or is this purely decorative?
