Gothic 1 Remake Improved Object Highlighter Mod v1.1.8

                    
Gothic 1 Remake’s default focus highlight only activates when you are very close to an object, making it easy to walk past loot, missed ore veins, or stealable pouches. The Improved Object Highlighter mod outlines nearby items, containers, corpses, pouches, and ore veins at a configurable distance using the game’s own outline system. Furthermore, it intelligently removes the highlight from emptied chests, looted corpses, and mined-out ore veins so you only see what is actually worth your attention. Consequently, looting areas and tracking resources becomes a glance rather than a careful manual sweep.
What’s Included

Outlines loose items and plants, chests and containers, lootable corpses, stealable pouches, and ore veins.
Dynamic un-highlighting of empty chests, empty corpses, and depleted ore veins.
Separate configurable color for forbidden or owned items.
Configurable outline color (RGB), opacity, thickness, and a near-to-far distance fade.
Each category can be toggled on or off independently.
In-game real-time settings panel via the included Shared Mod Menu, opened with F2.

Why You Need This Mod
This mod is useful if you want to loot efficiently without missing items hidden in dark corners or cluttered environments. The smart filtering for empty containers means the highlight stays meaningful rather than cluttering your view with already-looted objects. Additionally, the separate forbidden item color makes it easy to spot stealable pouches at a glance while being clear about the risk involved.
How to Get Started

Download both the Improved Object Highlighter and the Shared Mod Menu archives and extract them to your PC.
Install UE4SS experimental build 3.0.1-970 or newer for Gothic 1 Remake.
Copy both mod folders into your UE4SS Mods directory:
Gothic 1 Remake\G1R\Binaries\Win64\ue4ss\Mods\ImprovedObjectHighlighter\
Gothic 1 Remake\G1R\Binaries\Win64\ue4ss\Mods\SharedModMenu\

Open the game settings and enable Accessibility → Object Outliner. This is required for the outline system to function.
Launch the game. Highlights appear automatically within your configured range.
Press F2 to open the in-game mod menu and adjust highlight colors, range, opacity, and other settings on the fly without restarting.
Use your mouse to navigate the menu, or use the numpad: 8/2 to select, 4/6 to change value, 7/9 for sub-tabs, 1/3 for mod tabs, 5 to confirm.
To uninstall, delete both mod folders from the Mods directory.

Good to Know

Requires UE4SS experimental build 3.0.1-970 or newer.
A corpse stays highlighted while it holds anything lootable, including trophies you cannot harvest yet due to lacking the hunting skill, so you know to come back for them.
To rebind the F2 menu key, edit SharedModMenu\Scripts\config.lua.
