Alchemy Optimizer

TL;DR:

Press ; to open or close the Optimizer while in any Morrowind window (usually next to your alchemy window). Alchemy Optimizer automatically reads your inventory to find each ingredient's effects—even from mods— uses a CSV file to set your preferred potion effect combo priority list, and solves your 'optimal' potion creation solution. By default, the mod uses ingredient effects at Morrowind's normal alchemy progression rate (you'll know all ingredients by level 60).

Tired of spending hours manually hunting for the perfect ingredient combinations in Morrowind? Say goodbye to the grind and hello to Alchemy Optimizer! This mod streamlines your potion-making experience with a custom UI that efficiently manages ingredients, prioritizes effects, and helps you brew exactly the potions you want. Whether you’re a seasoned alchemist or just starting out, Alchemy Optimizer saves you time and supercharges your gameplay. With its dynamic, mod-agnostic design, the mod automatically works with any ingredients or effects added by other mods.

[]Dynamic Ingredient Data:

Ingredient and effect data aren’t hardcoded. The mod automatically reads your in-game inventory via MWSE and builds its data at runtime, seamlessly supporting all vanilla and custom content.[]Customizable Ingredient Blacklist:

Easily blacklist ingredients you want to save for quests or consider too valuable for potion-making, ensuring they aren’t used in potion calculations.[]Effect Priority Viewer:

Use the CSV file (effectpriorities.csv) to define and rearrange your preferred potion effect priorities. Edit this file outside of Morrowind with any text editor, and the UI will respect the row order as your priority list.[]Potion Synergy Tab:

This tab doesn’t just list which potions you can brew or which ingredients have common effects—it dynamically calculates the maximum number of potions you could create based on the current synergy of shared effects among your ingredients. It scans your inventory, generates all viable combinations of ingredients, and then, using the effect priorities you define in your CSV, it determines which ingredient groups share the required effects. The tab then displays each potion matching your effectpriorities.csv list and the maximum number of brews possible from your available ingredients. Because the data is gathered directly from MWSE, it works with any vanilla or custom ingredients and effects.[]Effect Visibility Scaling:

Adjust the rate at which ingredients reveal their effects based on your alchemy skill by changing the effectsScale variable in ingredientEffects.lua:

[]1. 0 = Vanilla progression (1 effect at level 15, 2 at 30, 3 at 45, 4 at 60)

[*]0. 5 = Half the pace (you need higher alch
