To get it working, the creators suggests you use the Nexus Mod Manager. It's so painfully obvious, and woefully missing from the original game. Most important, I would suggest, would be a way just to see your character and what is equipped. Oh thank you.Ĭlearly there's still a long way to go, and I really hope it's something Bethesda are working on, rather than relying on the modders to sort out. It provides weight and value information in the main list, you can sort columns as you wish, and even filter the lists with a text box.
With the categories listed across the top of the screen, and the far more detailed lists appearing below, it uses a far smaller font, and makes things much easier to discover. But it also makes an awful lot an awful lot better. Like I say above, the use of screen real estate, while better than Bethesday's mind-boggling choices, is still ludicrously in favour of seeing what a giant bottle of healing potion looks like. For instance, you can see everything on the screen without having to scroll until your fingers fall off. It's not perfect, mostly because a giant great image of the item still dominates the screen, but it's a darned site better than it was before. Big thanks to Rick Lane who let us know about SkyUI, which does wonders for the ridiculous inventory system with which Bethesda saddled the game.
Oh thank flipping goodness, Skyrim inventory mods are appearing.
