probably can do smth like that in future but there's issue with how to track/show items. literature items are unbreakable so u need single one of each one. but tools have durability and can be broke, also in multiplayer a few ppl may require same tool :skull_rolleye:

Hello its geting to a point where we need "Have i found this tool?" mod. Sad?
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] 7 Jun @ 12:50am 
@Child_Labor_Safe_Job mod already have this feature. I don't like names like "Non-read" or smth like that so there's another one for it: "Read Available Literature". you can find it in context menu of any literature item
Child_Labor_Safe_Job 3 Jun @ 5:36pm 
there should be a button that lets you read all the non-read books in your inventory, i keep thinking about it and remembered about this mod and how it adds everything but a read all button!

I know you're inactive until multiplayer b42, but I thought I'd just leave the comment I see that the magazines are being double read. I don't know if this is a conflict with another mod I have but I only have book mods that add a few magazines then your EXP recovery and Easy Literature. And its only happening when I select read available all or magazines.

@ghost I'm a bit inactive until multiplayer in b42 so when I'll back I'll add that feature. sounds very cool and useful :No1:

Love the mod, began using it back in b41 and then it has permanently been on my mod list. I do have 2 questions. First, is there anyway that there can be an additional file or mod setting that will then take into effect if you have exp recovery added? I also use that mod of yours to pair well with in game balance and this mod. If not thats perfectly fine, its easy enough to see recoverable xp available and mouse over and see pages read. Second, is there a way to mark known recipes as found? Maybe that is already built in and I'm missing it. If it is not added I think that could be a very cool feature for SP that would be still balanced. Thank you for hearing me out love your work again!!!

@𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊, firslty, thank you from the bottom of my heart for the awesome QoL mod, its been my go to for this kind since the past build, because you had support for Alternative Inventory Rendering, but now i'm not using it, waiting to see if is required or not in this build, but this i will use anyways.

Second, i wanted to ask, do you pretend to add the fliers and brochures? Because that would be a good addtion since they have map stuff as well.

Cheers

хорошо, спасибо

@M1ST0R ну у меня по смыслу такие же иконки, только не картинкой, а просто цветной треугольник. по идее можешь в настройках мода (на втором скрине в мастерской видно в левом верхнем углу) можешь вырубить отображение прочитанных предметов и будет норм работать с has been read
M1ST0R 5 Mar @ 1:57am 
привык к нему сильно
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] 5 Mar @ 1:56am 
@M1ST0R а зачем он тебе? такой функционал как раз уже есть в моём моде
M1ST0R 5 Mar @ 12:42am 
совместим с has been read?

As someone who obsessively collects everything with a literature tag I'm looking forward to trying this out.

@Biotwister I'm playing with this mod too and even didn't know what there was feature to hide equipped items :roflanGigi:
uploaded your patch :No1:
Biotwister 4 Feb, 2024 @ 6:20pm 
@Vishnya Noticed a small compatibility tweak for Equipment UI - Tarkov Style Interface for when equipped items are hidden with that mod. Requires changing the local items_list in easy_literature_render.lua:

local items_list = self.itemslist
to
local items_list = self.parent.onCharacter and self.doHideEquipped and self.hideEquippedItemsList or self.itemslist

This will keep the item tags matched to the appropriate items in the main inventory. There was no issue with the items in the loot inventory windows. Tested extensively, but I'm no modder, so hope this doesn't muck up other things with the mod :cozybethesda:

@Shangril странно.. но постараюсь пофиксить

@TTV ghostedstep @Tomoyo Drifts I'm back in zomboid so, albeit after a long time, I've fixed it
Tomoyo Drifts 14 Dec, 2023 @ 5:40pm 
@TTV ghostedstep This is caused by a mod conflict, I have the same issue. It doesn't happen with only Easy Lit activated, only with other mods, but I have 100s of them installed and can't be bothered to try to figure out which one is causing it lol.

Does this sync found books between faction members? If not would that be possible to add?
ghost 25 Aug, 2023 @ 2:59pm 
Using the read all available its trying to read everything twice
Shangril 8 Aug, 2023 @ 3:16am 
Вот например, я прочитал какой нибудь журнал с обучением рецепта, сохранил запись в дневнике (мод Skill Recovery Journal), затем меня убили и я играю новым персонажем. Я прочитываю дневник и у меня восстанавливаются все сохраненные скилы и рецепты. Но Ваш мод говорит что я еще не прочитал рецепт и горит желтый флажек. Так вот, можно было бы сделать хотя бы вручную отметку что данный журнал я уже прочитал и чтобы стрелочка была зеленой?
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] 2 Aug, 2023 @ 3:43pm 
@Shangril спасибо за приятные слова! Что ты имеешь в виду скорректировать с Skill Recovery Journal? Не совсем понял
Shangril 2 Aug, 2023 @ 1:07pm 
Мод отличный! Спасибо автору. Его бы скорректировать с модом Skill Recovery Journal чтобы можно было бы хотя бы вручную ставить пометки что рецепт/книга уже изучен/прочитана
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] 16 Jun, 2023 @ 4:03pm 
@Kevin15673 hmmm, will this about that idea, sounds good
Kevin15673 15 Jun, 2023 @ 5:42pm 
Could you add an option to more easily grab all not found items? For example shift+click the "Loot All" button and it will take all not found items. A similar feature exists in the "Manage Containers" mod if you'd need to reverse engineer it.
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] 1 Jun, 2023 @ 12:49pm 
@PattyFuckinRick yea, you right. `Organized Literature` just rename items to sort all books by their `perk level` instead vanilla way where it's sorted just some "random" names and final list of books won't be in sequence of `perk level`

+ it changes names of literature items in literature menu of my mod so it so recommended to use my mod with so of `Organized Literature` one :No1:
Veloquix 31 May, 2023 @ 5:34pm 
Disregard, i now see we can disable the marked as read feature from that mod
Veloquix 31 May, 2023 @ 5:27pm 
@Vishnya would Organized Literature not interfere with the Marked as read option since that mod does it by reading the first page of a book/magazine?
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] 31 May, 2023 @ 5:23pm 
@PattyFuckinRick "Has Been Read" mod shows to you status of books/magazines: read/not read/started reading but not completed (don't member but should work with VHS Tapes in same way). my mod have same feature but provides more ones: found status of books/magazines/vhs types and other supported things + menu so you can manually manage it
so in my mod read/seen/found statuses + menu to see full items list of found/not found items
"Has Been Read" provides only read/seen

about "Organized Literature": this one just renames in-game items so it will work perfectly with my mod :spiffo:
Veloquix 31 May, 2023 @ 3:08pm 
Also is this compatible with the Organized Literature mod?
Veloquix 31 May, 2023 @ 3:02pm 
Can you explain the differences between this and the Has Been Read mod?
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] 31 May, 2023 @ 10:13am 
@Becher yea, I know about that, idk why it happens. zomboid is kinda shit and same function works different for book and magazine even if it's should be absolutely same. about loop reading never got before, will try to test it somehow
Becher 25 Apr, 2023 @ 5:42am 
The "Read available literature" button is kinda broken, it doesn't works with magazines and read normal books in loop
kirito solo 6 Apr, 2023 @ 9:24pm 
hey friend how is it going, Is this mod compatible with your other mod "better books"?
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] 20 Mar, 2023 @ 6:58pm 
thank u for ur kind words :spiffo:

@Vishnya
Its all good, thank you for trying!
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] 12 Mar, 2023 @ 4:57am 
@kev2490 no matter how I tried to reproduce this bug but nothing :supersusguy:
seems can be conflict with some other mod but tbh I can't imagine how that could happen so don't know how I can fix that :roflanCry:
Evil Dead 9 Mar, 2023 @ 9:43am 
@Vishnya
Thank you for the response. Yes, it happens everytime for me. Its not a game breaker because I just go to the pile of books and select mark all as found. It might be a mod conflict on my end though, I do have like 150+ mods on lol
𝚅𝚒𝚜𝚑𝚗𝚢𝚊  [author] 9 Mar, 2023 @ 7:16am 
@kev2490 are you sure about that? just tested and all works fine. tbh in my mod even no feature to reset info about found items after death of character :supersusguy:
