📋 About This Mod
Installation Instructions:
Unzip the archive and drop "crafting.esm" into X:/Starfield/Data
Add the line "sTestFile1=crafting.esm" into your StarfieldCustom.ini under .
The StarfieldCustom.ini goes to:
C:\Users\<youruser>\Documents\My Games\Starfield
If you do not have a StarfieldCustom.ini within this folder you have to create one yourself.
1. Create a textile and name it StarfieldCustom.ini (make sure that it is .ini and not .txt!)
2. Add the following to that file with a text editor (e.g. Notepad):
sTestFile1=crafting.esm
bInvalidateOlderFiles=1
sResourceDataDirsFinal=
If you put the StarfieldCustom.ini into the Root or Data Folder of your Starfield Installation the mod will not load!
You can see if the mod works if the game tells you that mods are enabled and therefore achievements are disabled when you load a save.
sTestFile to anything 1-10 (sTestFile3=crafting.esm for instance).
Please be aware that the usage of mods disables achievements.

Ballistic Ammo uses Lead and Copper as Input Material, currently as a placeholder.
(until I figured out how to add an entirely new item with the current tools e.g. Gunpowder)
Energy/Laser uses Ammo Cobalt, Nickel, and Lithium because somebody pointed out they are basically just batteries. ;-)
Med Pack uses Aluminum, Membranes, and Antimicrobials as Input.
Digipick uses Tungsten and Copper as Input.
