addon's good mostly. it has crippling flaws in some areas. 1) hovering your targetting reticle over any valid targets (veronica, workbenches) causes the boxes to unpack, if they are in your inventory. 2) "update from inventory" makes no sense to me 3) you have to drop the box to deposit stuff in it 4) 1+3.
I made a patch file that changes things a lot, but can't post it because of permissions. heh. my changes: converted 'misc' objects to armor pieces, with code to allow you to 'equip' them to activate them. also prefixed 'em with iCrate. removed "update from inventory" from the menus, replaced with "deposit items"
have plans to add an autodeposit feature, but that'd take a bit more coffee to pull off. maybe add ED-E (both versions).
gonna message the author and see if I can get a response. hope he's still around. EDIT: Oh great, he can't receive messages...
I checked out the other mods that do sorting and I found this to be exactly what I wanted without feeling like I was using a mod. It didn't break immersion when needing to use it and it does the job right. I am happy that it is overall compatible with my other mods so no stress there.
Highly recommend using this mod if you want a simple sorting for storage retrieval/storing of your items.
Hello vivanto. I'm wondering how your ammunition sorting script works, because it is only detecting a very small number of the modded ammunition types I have in my inventory. I am using CASE and quite a few other ammo type additions besides. I wonder if iAssist could be updated to include all ammunition types.
If I auto loot a lot of misc items at once I get a CTD.. but not always. thought i'd mention that.. A good example of the problem is the Dino souvenirs closet in novac. If you autoloot that place then it will probably crash. Another example is the Sunset Star reward room in the SSS factory. If you auto loot all the badges off the floor it is more or less guaranteed to crash. Does for me anyway.. And I have a very good PC.
Hopefully you can fix it when you get round to it. Cheers!!
Hi, I just got this, and it is awesome. I do have a couple of questions though. First, am I missing something, or is there no way to make it take a set amount of ammo? When I take ammo using the sorted option, it grabs all the ammo in the container for all the weapons I have... Due to weight though, sometimes I only want to take some ammo, say 500 instead of the 1000 that is in the box. I tried saving my inventory, but it saves everything BUT ammo.
The second thing is.... is there a way to add more boxes like this? Having a food box, or a quest item box, or whatever would be so handy. I would love to be able to sort my inventory with, for example, plasma or energy weapons together, and melee weapons together, etc.
Edit: Now that I think about it, since there is already a way to add things to a box for auto sorting, wouldnt there be a way to have, say 10 boxes or however many you need that dont have anything set to be stored by default.... then you could just put in all your melee weapons, or whatever you want to store, in there and save it?
The two issues I can see with that are names... If there was a way to name the boxes whatever you want, it would be awesome. The other thing is categories. Either there would have to be a way to make it go to the right place, or they would have to be set for weapons, aid, misc, or whatever to begin with.
Awesome mod.. I wish there were other boxes too like AID and FOOD, TRASH and maybe a Currency purse for chips, faction money and caps. Also I wish the store feature worked with the mojave (post) dropbox's so its easy to ship your items to another town without having to re-sort everything. That would be fantastic. But Considering you only have to do that a few times in the entire game, its not essential. But if its easy to code in then I think it would be a good feature.
I would also love it if the quick looting "Similar items" list could be edited or something as there are many times when I want to quick loot a ton of empty SS bottles but don't want to loot the ashtrays and crap that can be found next to them. So I would like to effectively remove stuff like the ashtray from the quick loot list if its possible.. if not then please make it a feature ASAP!

Edit: It's corrected. Great mod.
P.S. Do you use a Form List to keep track of the item categories? If so, what's it called.
Hopefully you can fix it when you get round to it. Cheers!!

Anyway, that would be amazing if it is possible.

Many thanks for a great mod though!
