m8r98a4f2 has released a new mod for Starfield that appears to vastly improve the game’s inventory system for those playing on PC. The mod, which is similar to what SkyUI delivered for players in 2011’s The Elder Scrolls VI: Skyrim, offers a better category list, sortable columns, increased data, the ability to mass transfer entire categories, and more in the new space-faring RPG that is now officially available to play exclusively on Xbox Series X|S, Game Pass, and PC, according to a feature list and gallery that can be found at NexusMods. Critics say that this is another, perfect example of Todd Howard and Bethesda Game Studios counting on modders to do their job for them.
StarUI Inventory Mod for Starfield Features
- Much compacter overview of category list and item list
- Properties like mass, value, value/mass, mass of stack, value of stack, damage, DPS, damage resistance, ammo type, ammo rounds, weapon type and item rarity are available as column. Only a few are on by default – add as much as you like via INI!
- Sort the list to any of the columns by simply clicking on the column header (toggle asc/desc by another click)
- New special inventory-lookup column OWNED/SHIP/CARGO – See how many items you have in your backpack/ship when buying or transferring.
- Category icons before the item name, so you can directly see what a item is
- Show category summarized mass
- List navigation keys Page-Up, Page-Down, Home and End for fast navigation
- Mass-transfer of a single category from/to container, from/to ship or buy/sell for trading! (Includes options to skip equipped, favorites and specific items)
- Bigger scrollbar, so it’s easier to grab it.
- Change the font or font size (If you don’t like the ALL UPPERCASE style. I recommend font number 3!)
- Configurable mouse wheel scroll amount of lists
- Option to make go directly back to the game instead of the character screen.
- Option to disable the starting and ending animation of inventories
- Multi-language ready with easy translate-able files in the standard format
- Option to show the FormID of an item in the item card in inventory.
- Has no plugins and no quests – Absolutely safe to install and uninstall at any time!
- Doesn’t affect the possibility to get achievements
- You can configure all options in the Data\Interface\StarUI Inventory.ini. (Will move to MCM as soon as one is available 🙂 )
StarUI Inventory Mod for Starfield Installation
- Make sure you have the ArchiveInvalidation enabled!
- Either use BethIni to comfortably set the value (called loose files there) or go to your “My Games\Starfield\StarfieldCustom.ini” (create it if it doesn’t exist) and add “bInvalidateOlderFiles=1” and “sResourceDataDirsFinal=” to the [Archive] section (If that doesn’t work you can try to add it to your Starfield.ini in your game folder)
- Install via mod manager or copy this mods content to your Starfield\Data\ folder (where the ba2 files are)
- For some people that folder won’t work, copy the files to your My Games\Starfield\Data\ folder in that case
Modders have already fixed Starfield’s UI

StarUI, Starfield equivalent of “SkyUI” is already here and gives PC players a far more intuitive and informative at a glance interface, Insane to me how fast modders work considering the game isn’t even “officially” out yet! pic.twitter.com/smZThoaMGm
