"Dude, why is your file area so full? It is confusing and hard to see what I want?
Dreaming Star is technically multiple mods, but I want you to have all the choices available You choose which options suit your current play through in the files area: Main Files Dreaming Star Main Menu Options (Dynamic and Static) Dreaming Star Main Menu Music Replacer Options Update Files Dreaming Star Magazines (Regular and Higher Visibility) Optional Files Dreaming Star Artifact Vision Theme Options Dreaming Star Loading Screens Miscellaneous Files Dreaming Star Pause Screen Options And. . . Dreaming Star Wallpaper (Personal Use)
Well, sir, it’s this rug I have, it really tied the room together. "The Dude" The Big Lebowski
"The Dude" Explains Dreaming Star. . .
*****New Options Listed Below!*****
Dreaming Star expresses the vastness of Starfield. It started as a main menu video replacer that is a very nice start to the game; however, it now includes multiple theme-based options for changing your pause screen and other elements of the game to be like your Dreaming Star menu.
************************************************************************************************************* I am actively developing Dreaming Star as a theme and will continue to add options and more as I have time. *************************************************************************************************************
I never have time to thank all those who appreciate my work. Thank you, sincerely. ***Not affiliated with any mods that copy my mod name, ideas, and theme not true to my vision of my creation without my permission***
********************Please see permissions and credits settings********************
Because someone already copied my mod without permission. . .
I expect that other authors use their own original ideas, content, assets, and add to the modding community. I appreciate that people are inspired by others. I am greatly inspired by members of our modding community, particularly members of our Skyrim SE community.

Hi, I am Sklohe
I am the author and creator of Dreaming Star.
****No mod author has permission to copy my mod creation, my theme structure ideas using a likeness of my image source, or using my mod name to build any mod***
***I am not affiliated or responsible for any content other people copy***
I am responsible for creating the Dreaming Star mod name, idea, thematic structure, and all future ideas I add as options to the mod.
Honestly, a NSFW option is not my gig. Please be respectful and do not ask me.
I like that the mod theme is streamable, edgy, and appealing. I look forward to finding more ways to extend it.
Works great with current Starfield Update Version!

The pictures you cannot see are ones that are in the main menu. Matching the menu and the Captain's Logs seemed appropriate and a good addition Dreaming Star theme. These are texture files. Please make sure they go in this file area:
C:\Users\Yourusername\Documents\My Games\Starfield Magazines must be manually installed, currently.
Please look at the images for help. Please look at full loading screen instructions for help.

Please look at the images for help.
In order to load loose texture files, the Dreaming Star load screens, you must have or create a StarfieldCustom.ini file in your My Documents in your C: Drive unless you moved it:
If you don't have a StarfieldCustom.ini file, create one using the Notepad App.
Title it: StarfieldCustom.ini
Type or copy/paste the text below into your Notepad "StarfieldCustom.ini file. (Refer to image posted for how it should look when you save it if it helps)
Rename that file (So you can change back to the stock menu video if you choose):
MainMenuLoop.BAKbk2
(Your PC will say the file is unstable. That is okay. Press enter to confirm. You can delete "BAK" that you added to the file to restore it.)
Unzip DreamingStar.zip and place the zipped file called "MainMenuLoop.bk2" to replace the original menu video you labelled "BAK" to save it. Place it in the same folder that you created a back up for it in.
