How does MLSB's tag browser work?
In 1.6.8, the MLSetupBuilder library has been completely overhauled. This page will tell you how to find things there.
The model browser of 1.6.7 has been transformed from a tree with sub-branches into a table with many capability. One of those capability is tags filtering.
If you don't care for the theory, skip directly to #how-do-i-start-using-tags-filters
Filtering will only consider an item's name, but not its visual appearance:
Tags are displayed to the right, but are written text-like in the Database. Every keyword is divided from the other with a space. As the caption says, the selected line tags is written like : base man massive head
It is important because there are some rules to this syntax that will help you atomize the search of one model into the 40K+ models paths stored in the Database. The most important rule is that every model starts with :
base - for Vanilla Cyberpunk 2077 models
PL - for Phantom Liberty ONLY models
In the Models Library panel, click on the tags filter button in the header of the table
Let's say we wanna search only in the models of the Phantom Liberty expansion for man models.
We will add a first condition specifying in the options that our tags Starts with the word PL
Then we can click on Add Condition and specify that the tags need to Contains the word man
with a space before the word man
The space is NEEDED since the also the keyword woman contain the word man
You will see that for every condition you add, the datas will be filtered in realtime.
You can remove and add tags filtering condition as you like.
Clicking to the little x
in the right upper corner of the tags filtering panel you can toggle the panel and access the list you got.
You can combine the tags filtering with the basic search field in the table interface to find what you need.
The basic search field search model by their path in the archives, this means that ALL the part of the path can match a text filter like that.
