About this mod
Renames a number of items to help better manage the inventory.
Most items have been prefixed with an indicator of what type of item they are, so for example all alcohol is prefixed with .
Some items have also had their name rearranged, for example Berry Mantats became Mantats - Berry.
Keys and pws now appear at the bottom.

Renames a number of items to help better manage the inventory.
Most items have been prefixed with an indicator of what type of item they are, so for example all alcohol is prefixed with [Al].
Some items have also had their name rearranged, for example Berry Mentats became Mentats - Berry.
Keys and passwords now appear at the bottom of the misc list, hacking programs now appear at the top.
I realise there are currently other mods out there that do similar things, but this one is an esp, so it will work with all mods that modify the language files. This means that it is fully compatible with Full Dialogue Interface.
Compatibility:
Fully compatible with mods that change the language files
May not be compatible with mods that change item stats, but should be simple to create a merged patch with FO4Edit. If a number of people want a compatibility patch made for a certain mod I'll consider making one.
Should be compatible with mods that change weapons or weapon mods, unless they also change the automatic name generation.
Now compatible with the really cool DEF_INV - Improved inventory beta by Neanka. Just download the optional file and put it into the right folder.
Update 2016.05.13:
- The above mod has now been superseded by DEF_UI. A new optional compatibility file has been added.
- Added optional file for Automatron DLC armor pieces, make sure to download it if you're using Automatron!
My mod got reviewed by The Triple S League, check it out!
Current prefixes used are:
[Fd] General irradiated food
[Fd - Raw] Food that's generally considered an ingredient
[Fd - Cooked] Food that has been cooked
[Fd - Soup] Food restores hunger and thirst
[Ch] Chem
(Md) Medical item
[Al] Alcohol
[Bv] Beverage
[M] Mine
[G] Grenade
[Key] Key
[Pw] Password
[Mz] Magazine
[Bobblehead] Bobblehead
[H Game] Holotape game
(H Hack) Holotape hacking program
{Body} Apparel which only occupies the body slot
|PA| Power Armor
[Book] Overdue Book
Things I would like to do
1. Rename armour to be less confusing, so something like sturdy combat armour to combat armour mk2. [Done as of version 0.7]
2. Do the same to weapons (post any good ideas in the sticky) [Done as of version 0.8]
3. Prefix all hohotapes/notes.
4. Perhaps separate melee/unarmed weapons from the rest.
5. Rename all unique legendaries
. Probably not going to do this, apart from Piezonucleic and freefall. It's an easy thing to change, I just feel it takes away from their (pseudo)uniqueness.
Feel free to add any suggestions or misnamed things.
This file was created with F04Edit.
To Install:
Copy the file to Fallout 4\Data.
Add the name of the file (BetterItemNames.esp) to "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Fallout4\plugins.txt"
Should also work with NMM, although I haven't tested it myself. Let me know how it goes.
