Here are some of the best mod tweaks for Starfield that you can try right now.

• DLSS Mod: This mod enables Nvidia’s Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) technology, which uses artificial intelligence to boost the game’s resolution and frame rate without sacrificing quality. DLSS can make the game look sharper and smoother, especially on higher resolutions and with ray tracing enabled. You can download the DLSS mod from Nexus Mods¹.
• Performance Tweaks: If you want to improve your game’s performance without losing too much visual fidelity, you can try these performance tweaks by MartinSpielt². They include a registry edit that sets the game’s CPU priority to high, which can reduce micro stutters and increase FPS by 1-4%. They also include a guide on how to enable resizable BAR, a feature that allows the GPU to access the entire VRAM at once, which can boost FPS by 10-20% on Nvidia RTX 30- and 40-series cards.
• Gameplay Tweaks and Fixes: This mod by Ixion XVII¹ changes various gameplay settings to make the game more balanced and enjoyable. It reduces the health and damage of enemies and the player, making combat more realistic and challenging. It also tweaks the sneak system, the field of view, the XP gain, the credit gain, and more. It also enables loose file modding, which allows you to install mods without overwriting the game’s files.
