Simple Item Scanner

Description

SimpleItemScan is a lightweight Gothic 1 Remake Lua mod that scans for nearby loot when you press a key ("X" by default, configurable) and temporarily highlights it with the game's outline system. It is meant to stay simple and practical: quick manual scans, no always-on processing, and minimal gameplay intrusion.

Installation instructions

• []Copy the `SimpleItemScan` mod folder into your game's `Mods` directory.[/]

  []Make sure the mod's Lua files are inside `Mods/SimpleItemScan/Scripts/`.[/]

  []Start the game with UE4SS enabled.[/]

  []Enable `Accessibility > Object Outliner` in the game's settings.[/]

  []Edit `Scripts/config.lua` if you want to change the scan key, radius, duration, or outline settings.[/]

Main features

• []Press the configured scan key ("X" by default) to highlight nearby world items, corpses and chest in a configurable radius (25m by default) around the player.[/]

  []Scan radius and highlight duration are configurable in Scripts/config.lua.[/]

  []Repeated scans refresh the timer on already highlighted targets[/]

  []Outline visibility can be tuned through config options such as thickness, opacity, and color.[/]

  []You can configure:

  []the scan button; default: X[/]

  []scan radius; default: 2500 uu (about 25m)[/]

  []highlight duration; default: 8 seconds[/]

  []whether thick outlines are used; default: enabled[/]

  []whether corpses are included; default: enabled[/]

  []whether chests are included; default: enabled[/]

  []whether NPC pickpocket pouches are included; default: enabled

  whether confirmed empty chests are skipped (`skip_empty_chests`); default: enabled[/]

  []outline thickness; default: 2. 0[/]

  []outline opacity; default: 1. 0[/]

  []outline color; default: white 1. 0, 1. 0, 1. 0[/]

  []stealing warning outlines (`use_stealing_outline`); default: enabled[/]

[/]

Requirements

• []Gothic 1 Remake[/]

  []UE4SS or the Lua mod loading setup you are already using for Gothic 1 Remake mods[/]

  []The game's own item highlight / outline system should be available and enabled, because this mod feeds targets into the existing outline subsystem rather than drawing its own markers[/]
