- Update 0. 3 - Tytanis Compatibility
- Added all spells/shouts, most items (the ones that will end up being favorited)
- If there\'s anything else useful that\'s being mis-sorted, please comment.
- Coming Soon: JaySuS alternate sword names being added
- 1/8 Found several mis-sorted items such as Frostbite Venom. Will update with a fix soon

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Works WITH or WITHOUT Headbomb\'s Better Sorting (comment if there is a problem)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Categorized Favorites Menu takes the small vanilla menu and expands it into multiple
- configurable lists, and since it\'s so easy to configure it\'s definitely worth messing around with to
- find out how you like it positioned, how the lists work, etc.
- This is just my version that I am uploading by request from the Custom Configurations thread.
- FavBar changes the standard position, categories, and columns of the default CFM so it takes up
- less screenspace while still having room to quickly find everything you need. The addition of
- sublists in version 1. 6 of CFM made this even better. It\'s been moved to the top so you can still
- see your hands/what you have currently equipped.
- One cosmetic difference I\'m going to try and figure out is how to fade out the lists at the top
- and bottom similar to the vanilla list, it might blend better. This will be optional if I do figure it out.
- The current version SHOULD be fully compatible with Headbomb\'s Better Sorting, and Tytanis.
- I\'m currently in the works of updating this to be compatible with 3E Weapons, Midas Magic,
- Deadly Dragons, etc.
- PLEASE READ THE README!
- Update for Better Sorting also included many other unique items such as masks that are now
- sorted properly. Only comment if things are rediculously awry and I will try to fix it.
- Please Endorse and/or Comment with your thoughts! :]
