Wish Microsoft was cool about making mods compatible on GamePass.
You can install mods for the Game Pass version, the exe is different so the script extender doesn't work but StarUI doesn't use the script extender. I have 4 or 5 mods installed via Vortex right now for Starfield Game Pass version.
I would try to walk you through how to set it up but it was so seamless and basic I don't even remember. Just install Vortex and point it to your Starfield/Content directory... on whatever drive you told Game Pass to install the game on.
I'm not sure how you got that to work, but it's not that easy for myself.
When you install a game with Game Pass you can tell it what drive to install to. I think by default it might just install to your windows system drive but you can toggle that option in tho settings.
I installed Starfield to my F drive so it's installed into something like: F:/XboxGames/Starfield. I then installed Vortex. Vortex did not automatically detect it but I just hit the button to manage it manually and directed Vortex to my F:/XboxGames/Starfield/Content directory... then it picked it up and I can install and deploy mods to it just like I can Skyrim or Fallout (which I have through Steam)
Yeah I did all that. They just don't deploy when I load up Starfield.
What mods are you using/have? The Script extender says in the readme that Game pass is not supported.
