Starfield Running Multiple Batch Mods / Files

How to edit the StarfieldCustom.ini file and how to create a single merged.txt file for all your batch file needs.

Contents

Locate and Edit the StarfieldCustom.ini File

This should be located in your mygames folder, here is my example:

\Documents\My Games\Starfield\StarfieldCustom.ini

Use your favorite text editor, I use EditPadLite but there are so many out there and yes you can even use the built-in notepad app.

Modify the StarfieldCustom.ini File

Once you have the file open find the following line sStartingConsoleCommand.

It should be in the [General] section of this file, create this section if it is missing.

So mine looks like the following:

[General]
sStartingConsoleCommand=bat merged

I call the single batch file I named merged.txt which will be updated with all the added batch file/files that I want to use.

For some reason if you try to call multiple batch files separated with the semi-colon character the game may only run the first and/or the second command and skip the rest.

This is a work around to allow you to call a single merged batch file that gets executed and seems to run as many commands as you want.

Create the merged.txt Batch File

I created a merged.txt batch file that contains what I want to call/use for when Starfield first starts up.

Here is what I have in my merged.txt file:

;merged/combined batch files for Starfield ;Points of Interest Markers SetGS fHandScannerMapMarkerMinRange 1500 ; Experience Multiplier, the vanilla value is 1 setgs fXPModBase 5 ;Vendor/Merchant Respawn Value, how many days setgs iDaysToRespawnVendor 0 ;Dead NPC's always drop armor SetGameSetting fEquippedArmorChanceToDrop 1.0 ;Time Dilation While Waiting, default = 1800 ;setgs iSecondsToSleepPerUpdate 90000 ;God Mode TGM

FYI – the semi-colon; character is a comment so anything listed afterwards is for descriptions etc…

The Merged.txt File Updates

So once this is completed you will ONLY have to edit/modify this merged.txt file and save.

You can also comment out any batch options you have using the semi-colon character, ;
