W.I.O. - Wheeler Icons Overhaul (This mod)
========== Supported Mods (with Q&A) ==========
Q: Hold on! What do you mean by support?
A: By support I mean, I have given icons (either custom made by me, or borrowed assets and given proper credit) to the mods weapons/staves/spells and will work regardless of language
Q: What do you mean "Regardless of language?"
A: For the sake of simplicity, let me explain this in two parts. 1. Accidental Support and 2. Dedicated Support
1. Accidental Support, I have used Keyword Item Distributor as a framework to target NAMES of items (eg. Iron Katana) and will give an icon to the weapon based on weapon type, so if your "Bladestaff" is named "Bladestaff of Flames", it will detect "Bladestaff" and give it a "Bladestaff" icon. But there is one major problem with this, imagine you are playing your game in Spanish, and your Bladestaff is named something like @*#(@^$^#, it will have no clue what to do with this name "@*#(@^$^#" and so it will be given no special icon, this is why, for the best experience, please have your weapon names in English.
2. Dedicated support, I have used Keyword Item Distributor as a framework to target EDITOR ID's of items (eg. CoolNordSword_1), this gives support (meaning, gives proper icons) regardless of language because Editor ID's do not change depending on language, but I have to do this manually, and is very mentally taxing and boring to do, this is why only some mods have Dedicated support.
(TLDR; For the best experience, please have your item names in English)
