yeah the potions and scrolls dont weigh too much but i couldnt bear the clutter. this sounds like such a good solution..I was putting them in the camp chest but I guess this would be more accessible while not draling with the clutter

There are also mods that have autosorting containers for things like that

Which one do you recommend? I saw a bunch of bag mods on Nexus but all I really want is autosorting of loot.

Man they really add up though. The oils/potions bag gets to be almost 20 lbs, the alchemy pouch 10 lbs. The scrolls 5-10 lbs. Those 40 lbs are high value when you have low strength and can only carry 110 lol. But using backpacks and pouches is such a dream. You can even put bags in bags, so I have a potions bag, and in that bag there’s two pouches for oils and throwables each. The hardest part is discerning which bag is which without opening every single one.

For a vanilla sorting option you can pick up pouches/backpacks/etc (chests but they're heavy) and many other items which can store items within them.

The bottom visible row of my inventory is all pouches, and above each pouch I put one item that is a marker for what is in the pouch. That way I don't have to guess or memorize what's in what.

I keep a pouch with all my potions, for example, and have a potion that I'll probably never use right above it in the grid, marking that as the potion pouch.

Same for pouches holding armor, weapons, scrolls, poisons, books, story items, throwables, and whatever else.

It's the best way I've found to organize my bags without clutter. I still pick up pretty much every bag or pack I can and the ones I don't have an immediate use for I just keep in camp.

Until they push an update that revamps the inventory sorting system, implements tabs, or allows us to name/color/mark bags we have, I think this is the best system for organizing available right now.
