📋 About This Mod

This mod is unnecessary after Starfield update 1. 8. 86 on 11/20/2023. Uninstall it.

DLSS Upscaling and DLSS FG Required Files

nvngx_dlss.dll (DLSS) and/or nvngx_dlssg.dll (Frame Generation) must be downloaded and placed in the "nv-streamline" directory to use said features. View this image for a high quality MS Paint-based tutorial.

Alternative upscaling mods are not supported and WILL crash your game. Uninstall them first.

AMD cards do not support Nvidia features. The game may still run correctly on AMD and GTX 1000 series cards.

ReShade and Special K are supported. However, they haven't received extensive testing and may not be fully compatible.

This mod does what it says on the tin. It enables support for Nvidia's Frame Generation, DLSS, and Reflex using the Streamline SDK. It also embeds custom options in Starfield's Display settings menu, which are automatically saved. Please see the above screenshots for a full list of features.

In an attempt to mitigate crashes and hangs, various hooks are used in game code to patch some threading issues. This is by no means a complete fix, but it's been relatively stable according to testers.

Yet another dumb upscaling mod. Hopefully Bethesda picks up the pace and implements it themselves.

SFSE Installation

Extract & install as you would any other SFSE mod. The final directory should resemble these paths:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Starfield\Data\SFSE\Plugins\StreamlineNative.dll

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Starfield\Data\SFSE\Plugins\nv-streamline\sl.interposer.dll

SFSE Uninstallation

Delete "StreamlineNative.dll" and the "nv-streamline" folder as mentioned above.

Troubleshooting/SFSE Logs

Log files are stored under your SFSE documents folder. e.g. "Documents\My Games\Starfield\SFSE\Logs\StreamlineNative.log"

Source Code

Will be posted in the coming days because it's a huge mess in its current state.

✨ Key Features

Integrates Nvidia DLSS, Frame Generation, and Reflex into Starfield's engine code.
Modified settings menu allows customization while in-game and playing.
No external configuration files necessary.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Huge community trust: 1,695 endorsements and 48k downloads — this is a go-to for Starfield performance mods.
  • In-game settings menu means no alt-tabbing or file editing — tweak DLSS and Reflex on the fly.
  • Engine-level integration is more stable than post-process injectors, giving smoother frame gen and lower latency.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated October 2023 — Starfield's had several patches since, so compatibility with the latest version is uncertain.
  • Requires an Nvidia RTX GPU for DLSS and Frame Gen — AMD users won't get the full benefit.
  • No external config files means less fine-grained control for power users who want per-profile tweaks.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Starfield players with Nvidia RTX cards who want better performance and smoother visuals via DLSS and Frame Gen. If you're tired of stutter and want a simple in-game toggle, this is for you. Skip if you're on AMD or prefer manual config files.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 5 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure your GPU drivers are up to date — DLSS and Frame Gen need recent Nvidia drivers to work properly.
  • After installing, launch Starfield and check the new settings menu — you can enable DLSS and Reflex there without touching any files.
  • If you experience crashes after a game update, check the mod page for a compatibility patch or update.
