]Browse results in a virtual chest, where you can easily take items you want.[]Use a customizable hotkey (default: F4 a small nod to the DarkRP/GMod days) to open the search menu anytime, anywhere.
[]Consumables like arrows, ingredients, or potions are automatically added in useful quantities.
[]Avoid the clunky console UI or ID lookups – just type, search, grab.
Smart text normalization : For example, typing something like ebony knight or ebo kni
will narrow down the results to items that match both terms, even if they're not full words.
Smart Search splits your search into individual words and checks if all of them appear in an item’s name, in any order.
For example:
-
[]Searching for "iron helmet" will match:
[]"Helmet of Iron Will"
[]"Iron Nordic Helmet"
[]but not "Helmet of Steel"
If Smart Search is turned off, it behaves like a regular substring search:
-
[]Searching for "iron helmet" will only match names that literally contain "iron helmet" as a single string.
[]Skyrim Script Extender (SKSE64) : Required for running the compiled C++ file SearchUI.dll
[]Address Library for SKSE Plugi
