Changelogs
A custom config for Categorized Favorites Menu, now with support for popular mods (see below). Designed for 1920x1080 with an emphasis on Magic usage but scales well at all tested resolutions. Last updated for CFM 0.1.11

This mod is no longer under active development but should work fine withh all future versions of CFM and Skyrim


Instructions:

This config requires Categorized Favorites Menu. This must be installed first!

  • To install automatically (recommended!), download with Mod Manager and overwrite when prompted.
  • To install manually, replace the favoritesmenu.cfg file in skyrim\Data\Interface with the new one. Make a backup of the old one first if you want.
  • If you want to use the old 5 column layout (if you have a small monitor) go to skyrim\Data\Interface after the mod is installed, remove or rename favoritesmenu.cfg and rename favoritesmenu5col.cfg back to favoritesmenu.cfg.
  • If you do not want to use auto-favorites, delete auto_favorites.dll in skyrim\Data\SKSE\Plugins. This is something favmenumodder has added in since 0.1.10 which will favorite and tag (A) next to common items like potions. There's a quick fix for Better Sorting here.


If you find any bugs in sorting, PLEASE post in the comments/forum thread, I can fix them in the next release. I've been through every single item with Vanilla, Better Sorting and Valdacil's so mis-sorts should now be at a minimum. If you'd like a mod supported, post in the thread and I'll have a look at it.


Compatible mods:

Vanilla
Better Sorting
Midas Magic
Carry Weight
Torchlight
Bound Dagger
JaySuS Swords
Weapons of the Third Era
Valdacil's Item Sorting
And any mods that don't add or rename any spells or items.

If the mod isn't on this list the config will still work, though some items may be sorted into the wrong categories depending on what their names are.


Bugs in this version:

Currently no support for stuff added past Midas 0.07 or JaySuS v12, if you'd like them supported please let me know what class of weapon/spell school the new additions fall into.
Command Animal power is currently mistakenly sorted into Conjuration.
Some enchanted equipment (notably where the enchantment has the same name as a spell, for example, X of Flames) will be incorrectly sorted into the magic categories. I'm trying to think of an elegant way to fix this...

Release Log:

1.2.0
Gone through every item in Skyrim with Vanilla, Better Sorting and Valdacil's and fixed mis-sorts.
Added sorting for: Headsman's Axe, Forsworn Axe, Ghorbash's Ancestral Axe, Rocksplinter, Woodcutter's Axe, Gauldur Blackbow, Firiniel's End, Ghostblade, Nightingale Blade, Fjotli's Silver Locket, Footwraps, Predator's Grace, Ragged Trousers, Fine Raiment, Diadem of the Savant, Forsworn Headdress, Nightshade Extact (sic), Balmora Blue, Cliff Racer, Velvet Lechance, White-Gold Tower, Shalidor's Insights scrolls
Sort fixes: Fixed mis-sort of Elemental Fury (thanks solsikke737), Frostbite Venom and fixed a typo which caused Better Sorting Carry Weight spells not to work.
Valdacil's sort fixes: Added Drinks and Cooked food to potions

1.1.2
Updated to support the auto-favorites bundled with CFM 0.1.10. If you don't want this, delete auto_favorites.dll in \Data\SKSE\Plugins. If you're using Better Sorting, it's not likely to work anyway, this is something for favmenumodder to fix if he wants to.
Fixed mis-sorts for Storm Thrall and Atronach (thanks S0N0S), better sorting carry weight spells and some headwear (hoods).
5-column layout files now have the same name as previous versions so they'll now overwrite instead of bloating the interface folder.

1.1.1
Improved sorting for vanilla items
Fixed sorting for player created potions (thanks to headbomb)
Prevented some potions from appearing in magic
Fixed a couple of alchemy ingredients that went into consumables
Added support for Weapons of the Third Era
Added tentative support for Valdacil's Item Sorting, likely to still be mis-sorts but I've filtered all I can see using them naming syntax on the mod page. Please let me know any I've missed

1.1.0
Updated to support new features in CFM 0.1.8
Increased support for vanilla and mods
Switched to a six column layout for extra space
Proper support for and display of equipsets- check the CFM page for how to use these
Fixed bugs interfering with Storm Call, Daggers and War Axes not sorting correctly

1.0.1
Fixed a couple of text bugs interfering with filtering

1.0.0
Release

Massive thanks to favmenumodder for Categorized Favorites Menu, Headbomb for Better Sorting (and the basic sorting criteria/raising compatibility with CFM) and everybody else who consistently puts their own time into making Skyrim the game it should have been. You people are amazing.

While I'm being equal parts busy and lazy, reeper250 has expanded on this config to add support for a load of extra mods. If you'd like more flexibility or a different layout, give his version a try!

I won't be doing any localizations for this config, if you'd like to make a translation for yourself you're more than welcome to use any parts of this to get there. It's just too difficult for me to do without understanding the language.
