UIO - User Interface Organizer

User Interface Organizer, or UIO, is an FOSE-powered plugin that is designed to manage and maintain all UI/HUD extensions added to the game by various mods. Once installed, UIO will ensure UI extensions are always properly installed and, when necessary, properly removed; it will automatically detect, resolve and prevent UI-related issues, and will help keep the game's UI intact. You will be able to safely install/remove UI mods, at any time, without having to worry about it breaking other UI mods, or worse - the game.

UIO currently supports all UI mods that are known to me and require support (a full list can be found below). Adding support for unlisted/future mods is very simple, can be done by anyone, and does not require updating UIO, or involving me in any way. For instructions see below.

UIO also makes it possible to install any supported UI mod manually (i.e. by a simple files-to-folders extraction), without running any scripted installer (most UI mods use scripted installers in order to modify one or more of the game's UI files. These installers are known to fail on some machines, and may break other mods when uninstalled).

How does UIO work? UIO operates at game launch, before any UI files are loaded in memory. It detects installed UI mods, makes sure every valid UI extension is properly registered, removes references to missing files and duplicate entries.

How do I use UIO? Simply download and install it using NMM/FOMM, or manually extract the ZIP archive into the game's 'Data' folder. Please note that this is an FOSE plugin, not a standard mod - it doesn't include an ESP/ESM file and will therefore not show in your load-order.

UIO and Mod Organizer (MO) Due to the way MO works, installing/removing/getting UI mods to work together in harmony, can be very tricky. This is no longer an issue when using UIO alongside MO - UI mods can be treated and handled exactly the same way as any "standard" mods.

Does it play nice with Darnified UI? Yes. Moreover, there is no longer any need to manually modify Fallout.ini when installing/removing DarnUI - UIO handles that, as well.

What about Unified HUD? Technically, with UIO installed, you won't ever have to use Unified HUD.
