About this mod

Makes the dialogue buttons contextual, so that they will only show up when available to use, or when you hover your mouse over them.

This mod, and a collection of Aether's other mods are currently being maintained by Magnetuning (hi) and Aimryax! You can find a list of mods we're maintaining, and their Patch 8 update status here.

This mod has been updated for Patch 8!

DESCRIPTION

This mod does three things:

  • Makes the Game Menu, Change Characters, History, and Poll buttons contextual, so that they will only appear if you hover over them.
  • Moves the Trade button to a separate line above the other buttons, and makes it contextual so that it will only appear if you are able to trade with the NPC you are speaking to.
  • Moves the Attack button to a separate line above the other buttons, and makes it contextual so that it will only appear if you are able to attack the NPC you are speaking to.

(Actually, I need to restore the last two functions of the mod. Currently the Patch 7 version only makes the buttons contextual; it doesn't move them 😅 (Magnetuning speaking here))

This achieves a similar functionality to ImprovedUI's optional dialogue button tweaks, however it uses a different method, and achieves an alternate end result.

Credit to Djmr for giving me the idea to look into and create this mod.

If you'd rather install all of my Immersive UI tweaks at the same time, download Aether's Immersive UI.

COMPATIBILITY

Compatible with ImprovedUI, except for the optional file that edits Dialogue.xaml.
