Jims Simple UNpaused Menus with Player Control

Jim’s Real-Time Inventory

This mod makes the normal OpenMW inventory run in real time.

You can open the inventory with right click like normal, use the mouse to equip items or move things around, and still move your character with W, A, S and D.

The camera stays fixed while the inventory is open so the mouse only controls the menu.

Features

• []The world does not pause while the inventory is open.[/]

  []W, A, S and D still move your character.[/]

  []Hold Shift to run.[/]

  []The mouse still controls the normal inventory.[/]

  []The camera stays in place.[/]

  []A and D should only move the player instead of also moving through menu options.[/]

  []Attacking, spellcasting, jumping and sneaking are blocked while the menu is open.[/]

This is still the normal Morrowind inventory. It does not replace the interface or add a new menu. It only changes how the game behaves while the interface is open.

Requirements

• []OpenMW 0. 51[/]

This will not work with the original Morrowind engine.

Installation

JimsRealTimeInventoryTestfolder inside your Morrowind

Data Filesfolder.

Add this line to your

openmw.cfgif the folder is not already being loaded:

data="Your path\JimsRealTimeInventoryTest"Then enable:

JimsRealTimeInventoryTest.omwscripts

Updating

Replace the older

JimsRealTimeInventoryTestfolder with the new one.

The script and manifest names have not changed.

Possible issue

On some setups, A and D may still move or switch parts of the menu. This comes from OpenMW’s direct keyboard menu navigation rather than the normal movement controls.

The Lua API cannot change that setting automatically, so OpenMW’s GUI keyboard navigation may need to be disabled manually if it happens.

Compatibility

Mods that replace the normal inventory interface or change how OpenMW handles menu input may conflict with this mod.

Mods that only change the look of the inventory should normally be fine.

Collections Notice:

I do not like Nexus Collections as a principle, and I would prefer to be asked before this mod is included in one.

I understand that Nexus may allow collections to reference mods without direct author permission, but I still prefer that curators contact me first. That is basic courtesy, especially for small mods that may still be changing quickly.

I may request that this mod be removed from a collection, especially if the collection causes support issues, misrepresents the mod, includes outdated versions, or presents the collection as if it is the curator’s own work rather than the work of individual mod autho
