📋 About This Mod
Ever looked at a quest progress POI and wondered, "What quest is that for?!". Well, this mod adds the quest name to quest POI's, both on the starmap and in the scanner. Now you can head to your quest log and view the details of that quest, instead of walking blindly into a situation for a quest you can't remember the details of because you picked it up ages ago!
This is a "Starfield_en. STRINGS" file, so it will conflict with any other mod that includes that file. If you find a conflict and would like to use both mods, post a comment and I'll see if I can merge the two, with permission from the other mod author. Or, you can create your own Frankenstein merges by following the tutorial in my article here.
The "downside" to this is that the additional quest name in brackets also shows up for each log entry in the journal. There is probably a "better" way of achieving the same result as this mod without that problem, but it would require editing the interface files, and those are much more likely to conflict with other mods. Plus, they're more complicated to edit!
Installation:
Just copy the archive contents into the folder containing starfield.exe
Uninstallation:
Delete the Starfield_en. STRINGS file from \data\strings\.
