Starfield Hotfix Changelog Reveals Fixes For Pesky Creations Bug

Have you been trying to enjoy Starfield, only to realise the game would freeze rather than load? Well, it seems it was largely due to Creations. If you removed one, then loaded your save, it would freeze, which is obviously a problem, as that makes them unremovable or the game doesn’t bloody work. However, a recent hotfix seems to have fixed this, and now with the changelog, we can see what the heck was going on.

The update also fixes an issue with Microsoft Store, which would fail to open after using Quick Resume. It’s now easier to buy credits from the Steam Store, and a few other little fixes have been thrown in for good measure.

However, downside (sort of) is that Creations with modified .ini files have been stopped, as they were causing a lot of problems and will look into finding a solution to this shortly. This makes sense, as if two mods change the same bit of code, there’s going to be a conflict.

Otherwise, the game remains unchanged since the last proper patch.

Starfield July 2nd Hotfix Update Release Notes

  • Resolved an issue that could cause an unresponsive state when loading a save with removed Creations
  • Addressed an issue with opening the Microsoft Store after using Quick Resume
  • Improved Credits purchase flow when using the Steam Store
  • Addressed a cosmetic issue with Creation Store buttons while using Large Font Mode
  • (Creation Kit) Resolved an issue with applying keywords to newly created folders
  • Removed the ability to upload Creations with altered ini files

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
