Does anyone know if these mods work on the Game Pass version of the game?

They do. Almost every mod on starfield Nexus have install info for gamepass.
I've got about a dozen installed and have been playing without issue for days. Some are installed via vortex, others manually.
Thanks!
Mods can be installed to your Documents/My Games folder and a Starfieldcustom.ini file created with 2 special settings. Then Starfield should find them even on the Game pass version. See the instructions for various mods. The exception I believe are mods that use SKSE but I believe there is a workaround for that too.
Do any mods work on the Game Pass version?
However, I read something about being able to change permissions on the install folder with some special terminal you can download, but I can't remember the name.. It was in one of the other Starfield posts from a few days ago (can't be more than two or three right..?)
I am running with an ASI loader on game pass, it's do-able
Some games are installed locally. If you use the Windows Gamepass app, some games will install rather than stream. So I guess it's possible.
No it's not that. The problem is the folders were the game is installed is encrypted somehow and that prevents modding in general. Or at least that how it was last time I tried to mod a uwp
IIRC that part is fixed now, but there's another limitation that prevents script extenders from working.
Interesting! Thanks for the info.
