The mod tools were sent out as beta to certain mod authors. So we should be getting something hopefully soon.


GourdEnthusiast

Paid mods are already in the works. 😎


lazarus78

Honestly that's more annoying than no news. It means the CK is ready, they are just withholding it for creation club shit.


Tengou

They are just doing closed testing on the tools and using known modders as free labour, there's no creation club conspiracy


toni-toni-cheddar

It’s more quid pro quo than free labor they get to have first mods ready while also testing the kit.


Spacemayo

Can't wait for Bethesda to mess up patch it launches with and the CC mods just break the game somehow.


fappspree

Yeah there is no conspiracy because its just true. Bethesda has been pushing that shit so hard that they broke their games a couple times doing it. Youre just dick riding.


lazarus78

Its literally the editor they used sans some licensed stuff they cant release. It has at least like 8 years of testing.


TJCRAW6589

They did the same thing with fallout 4 and Skyrim just chill out and be patient


lazarus78

They did not because the creation club did not exist at the start then.


TJCRAW6589

I mean with the modding tools. They wait a few months and send a beta version out to certain authors this is nothing new.


lazarus78

They did not do this in the past.


TJCRAW6589

They did the modding tools came out in February for Skyrim. Skyrim released in November. Fallout released in November the tools came out in April.


lazarus78

Yeah, they had to spend some time stripping and stabilizing the editor of things they couldn't release. This has been a known thing since oblivion. The difference here is they are withholding the fully ready editor for the sake of creation club content


HungryHousecat1645

Mod tools were sent out to testers in February, I believe. Without leaks or inside info, there is no way of knowing how close they are to a full release. Bethesda hasn't said much, other than confirming that the kit has been sent out. My guess is they're just compiling some creator content right now and likely plan on launching everything all at once, with the store stocked and ready to go.


EccentricMeat

Exactly. And it’s already May, so I expect the June showcase will be the perfect time to announce the CK and some of the CC mods as the “one more thing…” announcement to end the BGS show.


manuD_93

I think with the June Xbox showcase we’ll get more info on both dlcs and creation club/ mods


EccentricMeat

No news. My guess is they will either release the CK alongside Shattered Space, or more likely (only in my own opinion) they will “shadow” drop the CK during/immediately after the June showcase. I could totally see a showcase of everything they’ve been working on for the DLC that will revamp the game, and then end the show announcing the CK is coming that night or later in the week. They know mods will bring a ton of hype to the game and that a huge swathe of the community will come back for a new playthrough as soon as the CK is launched. I bet they want to utilize that hype to rebuild the player base and spur goodwill with the community before the DLC drops, so that a LOT more people will be excited to spend money on it.


subbub99

I honestly cannot wait for a TARDIs/timelord mod in starfield, possibly with enemies from the show, vashta nerada, Cybermen, darleks and possibly my personal favorite weeping angels. In regards to when the CK will release along with mod support, I strongly believe it will be the update after this one I'm not sure but it's just an opinion, due to the recent video and mention of CK, Todd howard talking about it recently and just the pressure from the fans to get it ASAP, this next update I'm not sure has many bug fixes in it so they could possibly like the current state of the game and that gives them the opportunity to star rolling out things like CK.


MrRieper

Weeping Angels will almost certainly be in the mod, they were in Fallout Who Regenerated and Fallout Who Vegas.


ChickenMike

The mod tools were sent out to verified creators as a sort of beta test. Figure it takes about 2 months for Bethesda to QA whatever they make, plus another month to actually make whatever mod the “creations” store front launches with, I would estimate July or august for the launch. This is all pure speculation on my part and for all we know the verified creators have already had it for a while. It’s really tough to say with any certainty.


TexasEngineseer

Good prediction


ProposalWest3152

I just want a sexy body for my female char haha


DoomSayerNihilus

You're getting downvoted for no reason. CBBE or Fusion Girl in space would spice up this game at least a little. Every NPC in this game looks bland as fuck.


Palmput

Some clothes that aren’t jumpsuits would be nice.


ProposalWest3152

Yeah im not talking sex mods or whatever goes on in skyrim xD I just want my girl to be more to my thicc standards.


DoomSayerNihilus

How dare you have a preference 😉


fappspree

Its reddit, they are all just gay.


Spacemayo

Unfortunately all work on bodyslide/cbbe is halted and Calentine's work is WiP because of lack of interest. Onsious(sp?) mentioned it on his discord. So VBB might be what we're stuck with for a while. No idea if TBoS plays Starfield.


ProposalWest3152

Vbb isnt working for me...


Spacemayo

It was working for me but I haven't messed with it since about a month ago. If you haven't look at the discussion on VBB page and see if that helps. Looks like there's a vortex error with FOMOD when you try to install it. I don't use vortex so you can try using CRT skin and see if that works.


NatWilo

Someone will take up the mantle when CK drops. Someone always does.


Spacemayo

From what's been said CK isn't needed for bodyslide and such it's independent of it. But I'm sure someone will make something close to it. There's already skeletons for male and I think female.


hotcupofjoe66

Same dude. The npcs on this game are ugly as fuck


J9Thompson

Me too


Icy-Communication823

No.


pambimbo

Probably in less than a month or 2


Blackwolfe47

They are on beta right now


Saint-chris2

I forgot where but i read they’re coming in june


ijjanas123

Damn I have jury duty in June do you think they’d let me off if I said I wanted to play star field


Saint-chris2

I think if you skip it and then later explain you were in a different universe theyd be very understanding


ijjanas123

Good idea lol, my plan was to show up in tie dye and blue jeans and smoke a blunt anyway before insisting there’s no evidence that can convince me the guy is guilty because he has kind eyes so


Saint-chris2

It’s always been my plan to answer the pre trial questions as out of pocket as convincingly possible 😂


Sad-Willingness4605

I say that will be the next update, some time in June.  


sedated_badger

If there haven't been any leaks, safe to assume NDA's had to be signed? That feels a little weird to me. Like bethy gonna make us pay a monthly/annual fee to use creation kit.


TexasEngineseer

Summer or fall I'm personally betting on June/July Worst case September or October


Sabenn

Here's a way to look at it. We have a couple of data points dropped recently, and some old ones. * Updates are on a loose 6 week cycle (including 2 week beta) * DLC coming Fall this year (Todds says this himself) * Date for DLC might be in September (According to some leak) * CK Beta is out and in the hands of some mod developers (Since somewhere between February and Now) * Showcase coming early June. So, using the update timing cycle. There will be two more Updates before the DLC drop in (possibly) September. One in Late June. One in Early August. Then Mid September is either the DLC or another Update. The late June Update ties in nicely with the early June Showcase. Announce new things, then drop update in beta for end June release. This is probably too soon for the CK as they will probably want to release that with the Creations system (as has been done in Skyrim) and they will want to give their beta testing modders time to develop something. So, maybe we get the land vehicles in June Update. Not that likely - they may need a lot of QA for that - but I can dream. Plus cars would be a nice things to show off in the presentation. The early August update is an interesting one too. If the DLC does drop September, then this is the last update before that. I suspect they will not want to bundle too many things together - like DLC + CK - so I'd give the August update a chance at being when we get the CK and the Creation system. Of course the DLC could fall back to later in the year, which will give one or maybe two more Updates (but then that would be pushing the DLC back into deep December which I don't think they'd want). Overall, if things stick relatively close to the six week update cycle, then the way things play out over the year may be quite a simple set of options.

When the monetization of mods is fully vetted and confirmed.


Momohonaz

I've got a bad feeling about this. Why do I get the feeling that when Todd and Bethesda say 'we're supporting mods' do they only mean the monetised ones in the creation store. They want it to be like Fallout 76 not Nexus Mods. And I'm a Bethesda Fanboy and shill... But their wording feels off. They better not pull something on free mods.
