Jaxonz MCM Helper

Easier SkyUI MCM Menu Creation Just a little help for a Skyrim's #1 mod. MCM menus in SkyUI are a real blessing for modders, allowing us to present rich, easy-to-use configuration panels to users. I'm so grateful for SkyUI and I'm happy to give back to the Skyrim modding community with this simple library. I found coding MCM menus a little challenging and tedious, so I created MCM Helper to make authoring MCM menus easy. Most elements can be created with a single line of declarative code.

MCM Helper lets you replace this (example of a menu with 2 toggle options each tied to a GlobalVariable):

GlobalVariable Property giMySettingA Auto GlobalVariable Property giMySettingB Auto

event OnPageReset(string page) ‌‌‌. . AddToggleOptionST("OPTION_A", "Option A", giMySettingA. GetValue() as Bool, 0) . . AddToggleOptionST("OPTION_B", "Toggle B", giMySettingB. GetValue() as Bool, 0) endEvent

state OPTION_A . . event OnSelectST() . . . . giMySettingA. SetValue(!giMySettingA. GetValue() as Bool) as Float) . . . . SetTextOptionValueST(giMySettingA. GetValue() as Bool) . . endEvent

. . event OnHighlightST() . . . . SetInfoText("Option A useful information for users") . . endEvent endState

state OPTION_B . . event OnSelectST() . . . . giMySettingB. SetValue(!giMySettingB. GetValue() as Bool) as Float) . . . . SetTextOptionValueST(giMySettingB. GetValue() as Bool) . . endEvent

. . event OnHighlightST() . . . . SetInfoText("Option B more useful information for users regarding this item") . . endEvent endState

with just this:

GlobalVariable Property giMySettingA Auto GlobalVariable Property giMySettingB Auto

event OnPageReset(string page) . . DefineMCMToggleOptionGlobal("Option A", giMySettingA, 0, "Option A useful information for users") . . DefineMCMToggleOptionGlobal("Toggle B", giMySettingB, 0, "Option B more useful information for users regarding this item") endEvent

MCM Helper handles all of those complexities. No longer will your MCM script have to be 1000 lines long and difficult to maintain.
