Tooltip by abot

- show filled soulgems values according to Morrowind Code Patch option toggle

- fixed a bug on save/reload of MCM configurable parameters

- new and MCM configurable parameters (nothing fancy, I hate complicated formatting tools),

the option to see item mod source is useful when troubleshooting mods

- now Value/Weight Ratio should be displayed right after Weight also when using most of other tooltip mods

- more configurable parameters in main.lua:

-- BEGIN configurable parameters,  -- set to false to disable

local showValueWeightRatio = true

local showSkillBook = true

-- prefix/suffix enabling, one should be true, one should be false

local prefixReadSkillBook = true -- e.g. Sithis (nice to have read skillbook displayed at the inventory start)

local suffixReadSkillBook = false -- e.g. Sithis (if you don't want to have read skillbooks displayed at inventory start)

local readSkillBookMarker = '*' -- set to desired read skillbook marker

-- END configurable parameters

- updated to skip display if value is not > 0

renamed from ValueWeightRatio to Tooltip as functionality may increase

By default displays Value/Weight Ratio, you can change settings

below in main.lua file to true or false to enable extra functionality

-- BEGIN configurable parameters (you can set them to true or false)

local showValueWeightRatio = true

local showSkillBook = false

-- END configurable parameters

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Check if the mod requires a specific script extender or MCM—if so, install those first.
  • If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid errors.
  • Test the tooltip on a few items to ensure the ratio displays correctly before relying on it.
