How do you make modifications to favorites?

There's a number of spells, weapons, etc., that I'm using that just don't appear in whickus' Categorized Favorites Menu - Extreme Compatibility Config mod, and he hasn't updated or even post replies in a while. Since he's probably really busy, I was hoping to figure out how to modify the favorites menu to include some other mods I've downloaded. I'm also hoping I might be able to use it to fix a bug I found with whickus' mod involving custom enchanted items.

 

whickus' mod is found here: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/15797

 

I've asked whickus about updates to his mod, but he hasn't replied to anything in a while.

Ok if i understand you correctly you want to edit the favorites menu to show i.e. some non-vanilla mod spells or weapons.

 

To do that you must find the "favoritesmenu.cfg" text file which is located in:

 

C:\***\The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim\Data\Interface\favoritesmenu.cfg

 

Now lets say you have a destruction spell called "meteor" that is not part of the vanilla spells.

 

1) favorite "Meteor"

2) alt+tab to your desktop (no need to quit Skyrim)

3) open the favoritesmenu.cfg with a text editor

4) find the destruction spells

5) under "keyword=" you will find a list of spell names, seperated by commas. simply add "meteor" to that list, and save the change

6) alt+tab back to Skyrim

7) open favorites menu

 

VOILA! "Meteor" now shows up under "destruction"

Thanks for the assist. Now to add in a bunch of stuff from my other mods.

 

One thing, though, is that whenever you enchant a non-vanilla weapon, it either doesn't show in the favorites menu or, if you put a space or two in front of the name, it appears in the Shouts category. What's up with that?
