📋 About This Mod
Works with the latest (Free Lanes) update. Nothing needed to be done.
Allows you to toggle the digipick animation whenever you activate a locked object that can be lockpicked.
We have all been there, you are just opening through every container and boom the lockpick animation ruins your flow! Annoying huh? The only way you can skip the animation is by going into thirdperson mode, but obviously you don't want to do that all the time!
As soon as you have this mod installed:
The skip digipick animation option is on by default in the gameplay options. Which means there will be no digipick animation. Want to turn it back on for whatever temporary reason? You can do that! Just set the option to be off.

Creations Version
Compatibility: This mod touches nothing but the first person digipick enter animation. Besides that, works with everything.
This is a small master mod file.
Q: Stuff are invisible, sounds are missing, etc.
A: Restart Starfield. Quit to desktop/close app and then relaunch. Yes, I'm serious.
Disclaimer: This mod is a part of my small side mod series and are made and released "as-is". Which means don't expect any updates for these. I will not be accepting any requests/suggestions. If you want something done in my small side mods, then do it yourself. The only time you will ever see updates here is for releasing bugfixes for official updates.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Tiny download size and no bloat—just the animation toggle you asked for.
- Decent download count (6,874) shows real demand for this QoL tweak.
- Recent update (June 2025) means it's likely compatible with current game patches.
⚠️ Cons
- Low endorsement count (13) suggests it's not widely tested or vetted by the community.
- Potential compatibility risk with other mods that alter lockpicking or animation systems.
- Limited to a single toggle—no options for customizing animation speed or skipping entirely.
For Starfield players who are tired of watching the Digipick animation every time they crack a lock and want a quick way to skip it. If you're a completionist or play with lots of lockpicking, this saves you seconds per lock. Skip if you're looking for more comprehensive lockpicking overhauls—this is purely a toggle.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, just drop the file in and enable it—no extra steps.
- Test the toggle on a simple lock first to make sure it works with your current load order.
- If you have other animation mods, install this one last to avoid conflicts.
