📋 About This Mod
About this mod:
SFSE mod that let's you have up to 24 Favorite Items.
By default, you can equip a Favorite Item assigned to the new Favorite Slots by opening the menu and selecting one.
Please see the settings INI if you'd like to bind a Quick Key (hotkey) to a Favorite Item (..\Starfield\Data\SFSE\Plugins\FavoritesMenuExtended.ini).
You can create a Custom INI (FavoritesMenuExtendedCustom.ini) instead of editing the vanilla INI to prevent your settings from getting overwritten when updating.
Each extra Favorite Slot I implemented in the Favorites Menu can be selectively hidden for better customization.
Mod settings are reloaded from the INI after loading a save game.
Compatibility:
Not compatible with mods that overwrite .. Data\Interface\FavoritesMenu.swf.
Other (including any UI) mods should be compatible.
Requirements:

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 466 endorsements and over 25k downloads.
- Directly addresses a common complaint about limited favorite slots.
- Lightweight and does exactly what it says—no bloat.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires SFSE, which means you must keep it updated for each game patch.
- Last updated June 2026—if the game updates after that, compatibility could break until the mod is updated.
For Starfield players who constantly juggle weapons, aid items, and grenades and find the default 12 favorite slots too restrictive. Also for modders who want a more flexible hotbar. Skip if you rarely use the favorites menu or prefer controller-friendly radial menus.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have SFSE installed and launch the game through SFSE's loader, not the default exe, or the mod won't activate.
- Place the plugin file in the 'Plugins' folder inside your SFSE installation directory.
- After installing, check the Favorites Menu in-game to see if you can assign more than 12 items—if not, verify SFSE is running.
