Starfield Just Got an 80GB 4K Landscape Texture Pack

Modder ‘ZPASCALIONZ’ has just released a new massive 80GB 4K Landscape Texture Pack for Bethesda’s Starfield. As its title implies, this pack overhauls all the terrain visuals with AI-improved textures, sharper details, and cleaner surfaces.

Going into more details, the modder has used AI tools in order to upscale the vanilla textures. As such, the modded ones look sharper and more detailed. At the same time, they retain the art style of the original textures.

It’s also worth noting that this pack removes the BC compression artifacts that affected all original textures. BC1 is a lossy compression format that works with 4×4 pixel blocks. It results in very small file sizes, but at the cost of quality.

While these compression techniques make sense on consoles, on a PC in 2026, with modern GPUs and high-resolution monitors, these compromises feel outdated. This also explains why this pack is 80GB in size.

It’s also worth noting that the mod is compatible with most visual mods. It does not affect gameplay, and it’s safe to use with other texture overhauls if they modify different assets.

You can go ahead and download this new 4K Texture Pack from this link. Sadly, the modder has only provided one before/after comparison. Still, this can give you a glimpse at the improvements this pack brings.

Starfield suffers from numerous low-quality textures. So, for those who want to replay it, this is a must-have mod. And look, I know it’s big. But let’s be honest here. Most of you already have 2 TB SSDs on your PC.

Speaking of Starfield, here are some other mods that you can download. This mod adds cool quests when you explore new places. There’s also a mod that makes dead bodies move realistically, as well as a mod that aims to overhaul the game’s enemy AI. In September 2023, we shared the Disk Cache Enabler Mod, which helps reduce how much space the game uses on your computer. There’s also a mod that gives characters super realistic eyes. Halo fans can use this mod to play as the Master Chief himself. Earlier this month, we also shared a DLC-sized expansion mod that allows you to create whole colonies with giant mechs, defense turrets, a farming system and more. Oh, and if you don’t like the default camera views in dialogue, there’s a mod to disable them.

Sprinting Stuttering Fix is another cool mod that stops the annoying stutters when you run. Then, you can grab this mod that makes the game run smoother by fixing a bunch of scripts. Plus, I highly recommend using the Seamless City Interiors Mod. You can also get StarFinance, which brings an advanced financial system. And don’t forget these two must-have mods that make the game look and feel better with a new User Interface and cooler Particle Effects. On the other hand, this mod lets you travel between planets in real-time. We also have this mod, which adds 50 new space encounters to the game. This other mod adds 300 new repeatable sandbox missions. And let’s not forget the Fleet Expansion Mod. Finally, this mod brings a dynamic weather system into the game, and this mod improves the behavior of NPCs.

Lastly, here are all the best Starfield mods you can download.

Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
