Project Warfare - Hardened Edition
By 510deshawn
Community Rating
June 2025: This mod is no longer receiving support because after almost 2 years, 1 DLC later, no modding support for animations, unstable Creation Kit software + no actual documentation (unless you're a verified creator), and lack of communication from BGS. I have also been declined twice from the VC program, while other VC modders upload Star Wars mods constantly. Weird asf.
Add-on Pack 1 is out. Click on my profile to download! Ammo Framework Conversion is out. Click on my profile to download! Bonus Skin Packs are out. Click on my profile to download!
All Changes are listed on the Nexus/Creations web page. In short words, this mod adds a ton of cool weapons. Please read the entire description.
List of Guns (So Far): HVR45 - Spawns Level 1 Hornet - Rare Spawn Kendall44 - Rare Spawn Volk - Spawns Level 6 NV4 - Spawns Level 4 X-Eon - Spawns Level 12 Kam12 - Epic Rare Spawn OSA - Spawns Level 4 Tac-16 (Addon Pack 1) - Spawns Level 20 Fang-45 (Addon Pack 1) - Spawns Level 4 Peacekeeper (Addon Pack 1) - Spawns Level 18 AN94 (Addon Pack 1) - Spawns Level 16 FHR40 (Addon Pack 1) - Spawns Level 1 RPR EVO (Addon Pack 1) - Spawns Level 8 R3K/R3KT (Addon Pack 1) - Spawns Level 2 Raijin-EMX (Addon Pack 1) - Spawns Level 14 Ripper Classic (Addon Pack 1) - Spawns Level 24
Gun dispensers are located here: Neon Core (Trade Authority) Akila City (Rowland Arms) HopeTown Also, guns are sold to all Trade Authorities/Weapon Dealers
Helpers: Zone79 Meridiano ScarecroOw Armangelo Deveris
What to Know & Recommendations: The guns in this mod will spawn on enemies and certain factions and are somewhat balanced. It is recommended that you play on EXTREME difficulty for the best results. I hope for this mod to give a more Borderlands-like feeling when it comes to finding loot and a Call of Duty-like feeling when it comes to combat. Lastly, These are standalone-only weapons, and NO, I will not include replacements. This is a NO BS hardcore MOD.
Uninstalling/Updating: Please un-equip any guns associated with the mod to prevent crashes or soft locks when you load back in. If you load back in with a glitched-out screen just unequip and equip another weapon to fix this.
Bugs/Issues: Please comment on my YouTube video or contact me on Discord (510deshawn). I’ll get back to you asap. I'm getting multiple issues from XBOX players, please change your load order or reload the area before messaging me. Also, No custom animation tools were available, so every part of the gun had to be carefully crafted to fit the original guns in Starfield. So you may see weird stuff here and there. Lastly, if the vending machine doesn't work reload the cell (walk into a building and walk out).
Recommended Mods: Combat Enhanced - Harder Combat Mode Legendary Module Recycler UC Military Overhaul: All-In-One IW - Warfighter/Phantom Ammo HUD + Patches (for weapon icons)
Programs Used: Topaz Labs 3 Ai NifSkope Starfield Geometry Bridge Substance Painter
