🎯 Tips & Tricks
Back up your original StarfieldCustom.ini before replacing it, so you can revert if needed.
Try the version without atmospheric scattering first for the biggest FPS gain, then compare visuals.
Make sure you place the file in the correct Documents\My Games\Starfield folder, not the game install directory.
