Overview Neverwinter Nights 2 is a great game with many interesting features, but one thing it lacks is control over inventory sorting. As it stands, the sort ordering is predefined and although it offers ordering with some frequently used items occurring first, it is not suitable for all players.
The NWN2 Inventory Sorter (NWN2IS) is an engine that attempts to address this issue by allowing players more control over sort ordering. It also features the ability to sort containers in the inventory such as magic bags.
Through an in-game interface, players are given a choice of which criteria they would like to use to sort each of their characters' inventories. Each character is given their own personal settings.
If the available criteria are not enough, with a little scripting knowledge, it is possible to add additional criteria. Customization by way of table editing is also available for those who would rather not do scripting.
Requirements NWN2IS was developed and tested with the English version of Neverwinter Nights 2 Platinum (which includes the Mask of the Betrayer and Storm of Zehir expansions). However, theoretically, it should work with any version of Neverwinter Nights 2 updated to the latest version.
In terms of system requirements, they are the same as the requirements for Neverwinter Nights 2. If you can run NWN2, you should be able to run the NWN2IS.
Yeah, that is a known issue and with the way the engine works, there's not much that can be done about it (at least as far as I know).
One workaround is to put your secondary weapons in the skip section of your inventory. Just make sure you are wielding the primary weapons when you do inventory related things (e.g. sorting, picking up items, etc.). This could be annoying, but it's the only way I can think of to make everything work smoothly.

Really good idea.
Only problem I've had is it removes items from your hotbar if you sort. If you reserve the first few item slots with the sort tool it helps a little, but that won't help if you use the hotbar to swap ranged/melee weapons.
Not sure how to improve that bit, otherwise it's a pretty neat tool. _________________________ Return my Illudium Pew-36 explosive space modulator!
