SKYHUD

Hide, scale, move and remove HUD elements to your liking, or use as vanilla replacement with no drawback
Autohide Compass and Crosshair
Alternative HUD elements - dot crosshair, ammo display, slim compass, left-aligned health and stamina bar animation
In-game system clock
Normal font support
More manageable colored markers compatibility with standalone compass markers
Bonus: Better tracking for animated letters


HOW IT WORKS
Customization is done by editing skyhud.txt file located in “%SkyrimSE%\Data\Interface\skyhud” folder. The config file is formatted to be similar with Skyrim’s INI files like Skyrim.ini and SkyrimPrefs.ini.



INSTALLATION

OPTION 1 - Mod manager

Download SkyHUD main file by clicking Download With Manager
Install.
Copy one of the presets manually from Presets folder in “%SkyrimSE%\Data\Interface\skyhud” or download the optional SkyHUD - Presets file and install it with mod manager


Installing preset with mod manager

Download SkyHUD - Presets optional file by clicking Download With Manager
Install and pick your preferred preset


OPTION 2 - Manual

Download the mod by clicking Download Manually
Open the archive and extract the contents of "SkyHUD" folder to your “%SkyrimSE%\Data\Interface" folder
If you would like to use any of the premade preset, you can find them in "Presets" folder inside “%SkyrimSE%\Data\Interface\skyhud”. Copy skyhud.ini file into the main directory - “%SkyrimSE%\Data\Interface\skyhud”.



UPGRADING TO NEW VERSION
1. Uninstall the previous version of SkyHUD
2. Install SkyHUD 0.70B
3. Transfer your settings from the old SKYHUD.TXT to 0.70B’s SKYHUD.TXT in SKYHUD folder


DOCUMENTATION
Please read the sticky FAQs and Troubleshooting comment before submitting any support question.

A copy of reference manual can be found either on the download page, the main archive or “%SkyrimSE%\Data\Interface\skyhud” folder. It is imperative that this manual is first read before you start tinkering with the config file.

COMPATIBILITY
This mod is NOT compatible with any mod using its own hudmenu.swf/hudmenu.gfx.

These marker mods have compatibility patch for SkyHUD:
SimpleColor Map Markers by azzendix
Colour Map Markers SE by Lazz
Paster Map Markers by iTitoMix


PERMISSION
You're free to share your preset (skyhud.txt) anywhere. The rest of the mod must not be included and you must state clearly what version of the mod your preset is for.

If I happen to totally vanish from online world for a period of at least two years, consider this mod abandoned and available for the public to do as they see fit. I can be otherwise reached on Reddit as u/Fhaarkas.
