  • Open Merged.txt with Notepad.
  • Type bat "Data\IncreasedHighlightDistance", bat "Data\IncreasedScanDistance", and bat "Data\InstantScan", each on a separate line.
  • Your Merged.txt should now look like the one below.

bat "Data\IncreasedHighlightDistance"
bat "Data\IncreasedScanDistance"
bat "Data\InstantScan"
  • Then, in your StarfieldCustom.ini, replace the existing sStartingConsoleCommand with the one below.

sStartingConsoleCommand=bat Merged
