📋 About This Mod

Requires: NVSE

Requires: JIP NVSE Plugin

Requires: UIO

Recommended: NVAC

Recommended: MCM

Enhanced Item Info adds some HUD elements to eliminate the need for "spreadsheet" style looking up things externally on Wiki, and similar things.

FEATURES:

  • []Companion inventory weight shown inside Companion trade menu

    []List of recipes an item is an ingredient of (works on Harvestable activators, too) ‡ 

    []List of items a weapon or armor is repairable by

    []List of perks a weapon or armor is affected by †

    []Value/Weight ratio shown in menus -- know what to toss when you're overburdened

    []Comparison of Ammo versus the target DT in VATS -- know when to use Armor Piercing or Hollow Point

    []Comparison of total value, weight, and V/W of Input ingredients versus Output products in Recipe menu

    []Merchant name fix in Barter Menu; fixes bug where their name is not displayed until tabbing to a subcategory and back

    []Show armor weight class (light, medium, heavy) in Recipe Menu (this was missing)


    DETAILS:

    • []‡ Recipe and repair are dynamic and will work with mod-added recipes and items.

      []Designed for DarnUI, works with Vanilla.

      []MCM options are available.

      []Localization to another language is simple; where possible, localized strings are pulled from the GameSettings (GMST); all others are in \config\EII\EIILocalization.ini

      []† Only perks from FNV, FNV DLC, plus FO3 and FO3 DLC (if using TTW); mod added perks not included in weapon/armor perk list


      KNOWN ISSUES:

      • []VATS ammo compare occasionally doesn't update when cycling through targets. Closing VATS and re-opening fixes this. Looking into cause.

        []If using Vanilla (or something other than Darn), get the optional Non-Darn patch file to replace an xml.

      • The MCM setting to only show listbox on hotkey is not implemented in the code yet, changing it does nothing until this is updated to implement.
