📋 About This Mod
OpenMW Dev build(0. 49) required
Before installing this mod, you should unbind all the vanilla hotkeys!
Quickselect adds a hotbar to the UI, with custom behaviour.
You can either have it show at all times, or only show when needed. It allows for a more controller friendly experience, the shoulder buttons/dpad left/right allow you to select which slot to use, then A to use it.
The mod re-implements the vanilla favorite menu(F1), with some enhancements.
If you press a hotkey which has an item equipped already, it will unequip it.
You can have 3 hotbars. Press Shift+1, or use the DPad up and down buttons to choose your hotbar. You can also use the -/= keys or the [/] keys, but you must unbind them from their default purpose.
You can use the DPad/Shoulder buttons to select which item you'd like to equip. If enabled, you can also use the arrow keys for this.
Check the settings, you can customize behaviour from there.
Part of the May Modathon Month.
Quickselect replaces the 1-10 hotkey system in OpenMW with three customizable hotbars, offering enhanced behavior and appearance options. Requires OpenMW 0.49. A niche UI mod with 24 endorsements, last updated May 2024.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Triples your hotbar capacity—huge for players juggling spells, weapons, and items.
- Customizable behavior and appearance means you can tailor it to your playstyle.
- Actively maintained (updated May 2024) and has a small but dedicated following (24 endorsements).
⚠️ Cons
- Only 24 endorsements—this is a niche mod, so community support and troubleshooting might be limited.
- Requires OpenMW 0.49, so if you're on an older version, you'll need to update first.
For OpenMW players who find the default hotkey system too restrictive and want more slots and flexibility. If you're a mage or hybrid class that needs quick access to many spells and items, this is a must-try. Skip if you're happy with the vanilla hotkeys or don't use OpenMW.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you're running OpenMW 0.49 or later—the mod won't work on older versions.
- After installing, check the mod's configuration menu to set up your three hotbars and customize their behavior.
- If you're new to OpenMW mods, use a mod manager like OpenMW's built-in mod installer to avoid manual file placement errors.
