Spell Trader (OpenMW)

Description

SpellTrader is a small vanilla-friendly OpenMW Lua mod that lightly improves the standard spell buying window. It keeps the original service flow, but makes the list easier to read with optional effect icons, configurable unknown-effect highlighting, new-spell markers, search, sorting, purchase confirmations, and a movable/resizable window.

All additions are optional and can be disabled in the mod settings. If you want to quickly return to the vanilla spell buying interface, disable the SpellTrader interface toggle.

Current version: v1. 2. 2

Requirements

Requires OpenMW 0. 49. 0 or newer.

This is an OpenMW Lua mod. It is not for the original Morrowind engine or MWSE.

How to use
