This disable all UI/HUD element during Kill Cams (i.e. when performing a killmove).
Ever been annoyed that the cinematic effect of killmove was taken away by some floating healthbar, enemy bar, or your own health/stamina that got in the way? You've come to the right place!
Depending on your setup, different UI elements may still be displayed during Kill Cams. Player Health/Stamina/Magicka bars, enemy health widget or floating health bar from TrueHUD, etc... all of them will now be hidden.
Below you can see what happens with TrueHUD without Clean KillCam (Left) and with the mod installed (Right). The player widget and enemy's floating health linger around during the killmove.

Yeah, I killed the same guy twice for a mod page. But that's a Necromancer, so I guess it kind of make sense ?
Under The Hood
This little mod fix that by hard-disabling the UI during Kill Cams. It's a simple papyrus script that capitalize on ConsoleUtilSSE to send the ToggleMenu command whenever the camera switch to KillCam mode.
This means any scaleform elements is toggled off, no matter the source. Other overlays enforced by 3rd parties, such as ENB menu, would still be visible if enabled. But these are usually configuration menus, so aren't visible during gameplay. If you have a doubt, just try it out, it's very likely whatever is bothering you is handled.
Installation & Requirements
Make sure SKSE is installed properly for your game version.
Make sure ConsoleUtilSSE NG is installed properly for your game version.
Install through your favorite mod manager like any other simple mod.
Compatibility
Anything that prevent the proper Kill Cam during Kill Moves will obviously prevent the mod to take effect.
Anything that disable killmoves altogether... well, if you use this, I guess you're not reading anymore.
Any mod adding an extra overlay outside of scaleform won't have it's UI hidden. This means that if something is still showing up during the killcam for you, there is no way for me to attempt to add any kind of support for it.
Supported Game Version
This is just an esl-flagged .esp and a script, so can work on every game version, provided the requirements are available and installed.
It was built with the latest CK, meaning header version 1.71. So If you're using a downgraded Skyrim (pre v1.6.1130), make sure you have Backported Extended ESL Support installed.
You might also need to use the original ConsoleUtilSSE instead of its NG update depending on your version, although I believe the NG version support all common downgraded version.
