About this mod
A simple AutoHotkey 2.0 script that changes your desktop resolution before launching the game – and then reverts it after the game has closed.

This AutoHotkey script automatically changes the resolution of Windows and then starts the game. It then resets to your original resolution once the game exits. I made this for myself because I was tired of changing the resolution myself and because none of Starfield's config settings work for me. Includes a version for Starfield Script Extender. Requires AutoHotkey and NirCmd and a bit of patience:
How to install and use
1 Download and install AutoHotkey
2 Download NirCmd (at the bottom of the page)
3 Place this script and nircmd.exe in the game's directory where Starfield.exe is located.
4 Open the script (StarfieldSFSE for the script extender) in any text editor and replace the resolution in the script with your desired resolution:
; CONFIG
desiredWidth := 2560
desiredHeight := 1080
You need to edit the SFSE version as well if you intend to use it.
5 Run the script and play Starfield. The resolution should revert back to your original resolution after you exit the game.
Optional: Create a shortcut to the script.
Troubleshooting
If the resolution fails to revert back, try increasing the delay under CONFIG. The default is 1 second:
; CONFIG
desiredWidth := 2560
desiredHeight := 1080
resolutionRestoreDelay := 1000 ; Time in milliseconds to wait before restoring the original resolution
Make sure that AutoHotkey is installed and that you have placed both the script and nircmd.exe are in the same folder as Starfield.exe. You can find the game's folder in Steam by right-clicking the game in Steam and going to Manage and then Browse local files.
