I hope this message finds you well. I've been using your mod and found it to be a fantastic addition to my gameplay experience. However, I made some adjustments to the code that I believe could enhance its functionality.
I noticed a way to make the speed adjustment smoother in your code. Check this out: When you press Shift+F before sprinting, it basically stops players from going all "The Flash" on us and keeps the game more realistic for immersion.
I want to emphasize that your mod served as the foundation for this adjustment, and all credit goes to you for creating such a valuable addition to the game. I'm sharing this modification with the community to contribute to the mod's overall improvement and help others who might encounter similar issues.
If you have any feedback or suggestions regarding this change or would like to discuss it further, please let me know. I'm open to any input you may have.
Thank you for your hard work in creating this mod, and I look forward to any updates, improvements, and additions you make in the future!
I'm using Mod Organizer 2 (2.5 beta 7) and it seems it's not compatible with your mod.
I installed your mod manually. If I launch the game with MO2 (even with all the other mods disabled), the mod is not working. If I don't use MO2 and launch the game from the standard Starfield.exe, the mod works fine.
Could be that MO2 only loads mods from the games root folder and not from MyDocuments? You could try moving the files into the game directory and editing Starfield.ini instead of StarfieldCustom.ini.
StarfieldHotkeys.ini in MyDocuments + editing StarfieldCustom.ini (MyDocuments directory) -> doesn't work StarfieldHotkeys.ini in game directory + editing Starfield.ini (game directory) -> doesn't work StarfieldHotkeys.ini in game directory + editing StarfieldCustom.ini (MyDocuments directory) -> doesn't work StarfieldHotkeys.ini in MyDocuments + editing Starfield.ini (game directory) -> it works !
What's strange is that I have other mods installed manually by editing the StarfieldCustom.ini of MyDocuments, and they are working fine with MO2. But at the end, it works with this settings so this is the most important. Thanks for your help and thanks for this great mod !
I discovered that MO2 creates an INI file in the MO2\profiles folder. It can be edited from the software itself with the "ini editor" or manually. Usually, the software copies the content of the StarfieldCustom.ini file to it, so you can edit one or the other. But for some reason, with this mod, when I add to StarfieldCustom.ini :
Only this part is copied to the MO2 ini file :
So the solution is to modify directly the MO2 ini, it's what I'll do from now on.
I can confirm the above worked for me, specifically dropping the StarfieldHotkeys.ini into the My Games/Starfield folder & using MO2 to edit the StarfieldCustom.ini
Absolutely love this approach to movement speed & thank you for the mod!
I'm trying to change the binds in my StarfieldHotkeys.ini to use semicolon and apostrophe, but those two keys are not working. (Page Up/Down keys are working properly) Any Idea what I'm doing wrong? I'm assuming it must be some short hand version I'm not aware of.
YES! This! This is brilliant! I've wanted this for PC gaming for so long! To use the scroll wheel to adjust movement speed to match what controllers can do with joysticks feels like such an obvious feature I can't believe it's not a common occurrence in mouse & keyboard gaming. And the page up/down keys (or mouse button 4/5 if your mouse has them) would be much better suited for adjusting camera distance. Endorsed!
Edit: Alright, I've done some further testing with this mod and it is unfortunately not 100% perfect. I was hoping I could scroll through all player movement speeds from the slowest walk animation to the fastest running animation without having to toggle the "always run" mode. And even with this mod your fastest walking speed is still slower than NPC's and your slowest jogging speed is too fast, but the concept of using the scroll wheel to regulate walking speed is still a great idea that I dearly hope PC gaming developers adopt.
This works perfectly with the mouse wheel, but I keep changing the speed when I use the wheel to change between first person and the two third person views, so I changed the Hotkeys MouseWheelUp with the NumPad7 etc works fine. Thank You for a great mod.
I have one more small request... Can you make it so that it ignores keypress/activation/function or whatever you want to call it, while you are siting in the pilot seat of your starship please? And when you have your scanner out, if it's possible that is. Please and thank you.
Adjusting the speedmult to 140 eliminates walking (which caps to ~135) and just makes your running speed hilariously fast. That's the old method, this allows you to adjust your walking and running speed as the situation demands it in real time. As the author of Realistic Humanoid Movement Speed SSE, one would think you'd appreciate this.
My point is, the mod does the exact same as those commands. Whether you use 140 or 120 is your own choice. So you either use the hotkey(s), or you use ~ + Arrow up. Effect is the same.
Until .esp files become safe to use, the issues can't be fixed effectively. As author of that mod I appreciate this more, than workarounds. I'm not hating, do what you please. I'm just keeping things realistic while many mod authors make poor use of the massive influx of new players (I'm not saying this person is using them).
@Battlemane, He is not wrong. This is 100% a hacky solution simply calling 'player.setav speedmult' command. Ini files aren't meant to handle functionality like this.
@Acherones, While you aren't wrong that one could simply call those commands, that would require constantly opening your console if you wished to have different limits on running and walking speeds. And you would miss out on having the ability to quickly adjust on the fly.
I cannot for the life of me get this to function. I have followed the installation directions exactly, and have StarfieldCustom.ini as well as StarfieldHotKeys.ini.
Wow! Thank you so much for that! The slow, default walking was bothering me so much and I didn't expect the perfect solution for that so fast! You took probably inspiration from Star Citizen for that with the scroll wheel? Let me know.

Thank You for a great mod.
player.setav speedmult 140
player.forceav speedmult 140
Plus those settings make the player run like a cranked out skooma addict.

1. Interfere with Zoom In/Out
2. Not works in scanner mode
