My mods kept working after each patch AND after i started NG+

Why? because i am only using pure texture mods. We should not be using plugins until after the official tools are released.

And IF you are going t o use mods anyway then Read the manual.
Take SFSE (Script extender) you must update it after each game update.
But the Mod author said he will not update it until after the patch goes official.

From what I've heard, modding for this game is more difficult than their prior games. The community patch people and some other modders on Nexus have said that mod support for this game seems like more of an "afterthought" despite advertising otherwise.

Something about form IDs and plugins which would lead to mods not working, playing well together, etc. It might be that NG+ variations have some change in the form IDs which break your mods. I would guess at least.

Apparently, even if Bethesda were to release DLCs at this point in the structure it'd break the whole game. So it'd have to be reworked before modding tools/DLC is released.

I won't pretend to know the whole deal, it's just what I'd seen on some news sites and videos.

Same thing happened to me.

Again you are always modifying a game at your own risk but modding before the official tools are released is taking that risk to another level.

That's why responsible modders are stating that on their mod pages.

If you are using skse and you opted into the Starfield beta then it won't work, probably breaking a lot of your mods. Either switch out of the beta or wait for them to update the script extender (which they have said they won't do while Starfield is still in beta testing for the new patch).

I mentioned that earlier regarding SFSE but if you opt in to the Beta and start playing and later opt out all of your saves will be broken. You'd have to start a new game.

Don't use mods on a beta. Use mods on the release at your own risk. Official support has not yet been released for them. If you use mods on the Beta, do not report issues b/c you won't know if the issue is b/c of the mod or the beta. You won't have a good baseline. You must have a baseline to report issues. Otherwise you are wasting your time and developer's time. You want the developer version to be the same as your version so they can test 1 to 1. Otherwise, it becomes a mess.

Mods wont work on a BETA
They are for released version only and match the script extension version for that released product only.

[Pappy709]

Not running the beta and they have worked great up till now.

[Pappy709]

I got them working, operator error...starting without script extensions . Sorry I fell silly.

On NG+, all of the game settings revert to stock vanilla. You have to completely exit the game, and restart, load your save, and your mods should be back.
