Truly a must have mod for everyone and the MCM integration is just chef's kiss.
Question about the MCM, though. Any reason for it requiring the 1.18 BETA release as opposed to the 1.17 prod release? Not a huge deal in the grand scheme of things.
Do i need any of the main files? i downloaded mcm one from optional files. And if i need it, what should be the load order? original then mcm or vice versa.
Thanks for the answer (and TecnoQuantum for the question), I was unsure about it too because of this line in the description "Add-ons from optional files section can be used together with main file." and the only optional file is the MCM-variant but good to know it works standalone👍.
Incredible work bringing the mod's features into an MCM configurable state! Impressive work, it is highly appreciated :) Good job, keep up the great work!
Hey, I like this mod. So much so that LillyBird and I included it in Listonomicon. "Listo" is a Wabbajack-powered mod list, that works almost identically to Nexus Collections but uses a community alternative to Vortex to help users download mods from Nexus, put them in the correct order, and prepare their game to play. No mods are repacked, stolen, or distributed directly - users are still directed here, just like with Collections, to download from your Nexus page and ensure you are given the proper download credit.
Due to confusion over what Wabbajack is and what it does, users at the Down By The River community encouraged me to give a courtesy "heads up" to the authors whose work is included in Listonomicon. And to assure them that per Listonomicon's install instructions, users are explicitly told to direct their bug reports issues to us first as mod authors (like you) don't want to deal with being inundated with help requests or bug reports from users with 300+ active mods.
You can read a little more about our project on Github, though the preferred way to access Listonomicon is via the Wabbajack gallery. A list of all included mods are here. A synopsis of the philosophy of Listo and what we are trying to accomplish (and avoid) can be found in our Whitepaper on the first two pages, and is elaborated starting page 17 "List Philosophy."
If you have any concern about your mod being included in Listonomicon (which is still downloaded from this page, and credits you as the author), please send me a message via Nexus's PM mail. I'm not sure how to get notifications if someone has replied to a comment.
Problem with the ingame-MM (or mod.io rather) is that they only offer one variant per mod whereas on Nexusmods you can put a lot of variants under the same mod-name. So each variant would have to be uploaded under a separate entry to be listed ingame and there's already d10- and d20-variants by other authors uploaded so...actually idk how they would handle the approval of mods which are 1:1 duplicates in function that come after those, likely not gonna happen if I had to guess.
Better to have all variants here easy to find since they are updated now thanks to MaskedRPGFan. If you really need more exotic parameters (like some crazies who play with d100 :o) ) you could always make your own with the toolkit, see my comment earlier .
You can remove bundled Modfixer from mods by unpacking the .pak, deleting the relevant file (ForcedRecompile.txt) and then repacking it. If the mod itself doesn't have a compatibility problem with Patch #7 it should work fine afterwards. Since Patch #7 the game should block any Modfixer parts from getting loaded (bundled or not) but it appears to stumble when it's in another file path than expected or if the .txt is named differently.

Order does NOT matter.

or a more general one

Oor if you want to create an initiative-mod suited to your taste with the official toolkit yourself, see this comment from a d10-mod author.
All this to say in the end: Here's a d8-mod I made for myself following the comment (link expires in a month)
