About this mod

A very basic and simple ESM viewer, with a side order of archive viewer/extractor. Supports all versions from Morrowind to Starfield

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Changelogs
What it do?

  • Loads up all stock ESMs for a game, complete with override handling, and stock load order
  • Loads up all archives for a game, as a single set of folders and files.
  • Shows all ESM records with in-game FormIDs (i.e. incremented based on load order), EditorIDs and (where available) Names
  • Separate CK-style Window showing Worldspaces, Interior and Exterior cells, and refs.

What it don't?

  • This is NOT an editor.  I neither have the intent nor desire for this to be an alternative to xEdit or the CK.   I just wanted something to easily view ESM data without having to wait for those two. 
  • No detailed record data (yet) - just the basics. Should be useful enough for console commands at the very least. 

How to use
  • Unzip it
  • Open it
  • Click File->Open
  • Select the .exe for the desired game (the actual .exe, not the launcher)
  • Wait for it to grind through all the files. 
  • Explore away!

But Why....?

Q: Why does it look like a CK ripoff?
A: I like the look, and it works /shrug

Q: What's with the wish.com B.A.E?
A: I needed to parse the BA2 archives anyway, to get the string tables, and I had a big blank spot in the UI, so...why not? 

Q: Why can't I view more info for the records?
A: Main goal was to make it useful ASAP, and r/e-ing the record types takes a lot of time. xEdit has a team - I only have me, and a full time job.  But I do plan on adding such support in the future. 

Q: How do I edit stuff?
A: You can't - this is a viewer. This will always be a viewer. It will be able to view more things in the future, but it will NEVER be an editor.

Version History

1.1.1.0 - 9/29/2023

A small bug fix/QoL update

  • Due to a bug introduced with the free selection feature, that led to cell references not being able to be viewed, a selection "mode" toggle has been introduced. If you want to freely select grid cells, you can switch to/from select mode with the "S" key
  • A bug that led to World cell references not being shown has been fixed
  • Windows have been repositioned to allow viewing of the status bar by default on 1080p screens
  • Upon exiting the app the first time, an ini file will be created with positions/sizes of the windows - the next time you open it, the windows will be back where you left them
  • World entries have been added to the Object Window, under the tag WRLD
  • The day one bug that caused the application to crash on opening a file, has been finally fixed for good - no more debug dlls!
  • The Game Pass issue has been addressed - now you can pick any other .exe in the same folder as the game's main .exe, and it will identify the game and load the data.






1.1.0.0 - 9/16/2023

  • All data grids (Object Window, Cell View, etc) are now freely selectable, and copyable
  • search boxes have been added to the object window and refs portion of the Cell View window
  • A fake "All" category has been added to the left side of the object window for searching all records
  • a "Use Info" option has been added to the context menu of the Object window, that will in turn show all references to said item in a new window.
