AltSortingTags
AltSortingTags is an alternative sorting modification that uses Diacritic icons and Ascii pictogram designs.
The [prefixes] are shorters that way, also they are de facto working in all languages.
I carefully tried to “draw” icons that match the idea of all items, and some might be cryptic at start I don’t know, you tell me
This comes with pregenerated strings in English or French (choose one). The current strings are tied to Fallout 76 v 1.0.1.14.
The strings has been generated by using:
-SortingTagsGenerator : https://www.fallout76mods.com/sortingtagsgenerator/ – for the sorting prefixes
-ComponentParts: https://www.fallout76mods.com/componentparts/ – for the component suffixes
Those tutorials/tools will teach you to update, translate and even customize your strings automatically.
Important Note:
Those tags only work with game version that uses occidental charsets (en, fr, es, de etc…). Oriental charsets (jp, cn, ko) will not work properly in that case.
Installation:
-Unzip the zip file in the game .\data folder. This will create a .\Strings folder with the relevant file in it.
The game data folder in inside the betheda launcher install path .\Bethesda.net Launcher\games\Fallout76\Data
No further modification required, by default the game allows strings override.
Also, VERY IMPORTANT: After each Game Update, it is absolutely necessary to replace the strings by a newer version that fits the current version of the game. If you fail to do that, you will get some strings errors, or worse. It is you own responsibility to maintain your installation up to date.
