Neon Core - Serious Business

Neon Core is one of Starfield’s most iconic locations, with its strong cyberpunk inspiration and striking visual identity.

However, once you explore the main street, many of the shops and services that make up this commercial hub feel strangely empty or inconsistent.

Why do some stores have almost nothing to sell and no visible storage area? Why do businesses have no doors, shutters or way to close? Why are so many screens inactive? Why are certain stores barely visible from the main street? Who actually sells all the cigarettes found throughout the game? And how can a tea company operate without water, kettles or proper equipment?

With this mod, I have tried to bring more logic, personality and visual identity to Neon’s businesses.

Welcome to Neon Core - Serious Business.

⚪️  AUTHOR’S NOTE : 

This is the first part of a planned series of fully vanilla and lore-friendly overhauls that may eventually cover the rest of Neon Core and Neon’s exterior. Those future projects will be broader and therefore less compatible with other large overhauls.

• []The goal of this mod is to remain as compatible as possible, especially with the excellent Neon Expansion by the great  MelodicJJ[/]

• []A Neon Vertigo patch is included to remove duplicated billboards in favor of the ones added by this mod, which are properly positioned and no longer float in mid-air.[/]

• []An optional version without the Ryujin Tower lobby overhaul is also available for players who prefer to use Slightly Better Ryujin Tower Lobby by the great Stonyr0ck[/]

• []A compatibility patch for Neon Expansion may be provided if necessary by our friend MelodicJJ. Based on my discussions with MelodicJJ, however, most of the two mods should already work together as long as Neon Expansion is loaded after this mod.[/]
