About this mod
An elegant, re-coloured and modern HUD for those of us who still want to be immersed in the game world without removing our HUDs!

This is essentially a mod that utilizes elements from the Minimalistic HUD and shapes it into a more compact, minimalistic and elegant experience using either the Less Intrusive HUD II or SkyHUD mods. Strahlimeier graciously provided the SkyHUD version which includes cool features like removing the "Low Stamina/Magicka/Health" bar warnings and changing it into a bar that flashes slightly in the middle.
Here is also a quick preview video from the Minimalistic HUD page in action. Note that my mod resized and moved the elements from this mod, but the specific textures are still the same!

Compatibility
- Immersive HUD - Will work but won't be able to hide health, magicka and stamina bars. Thankfully Minimalistic HUD still incorporates the fading of these elements over time and IHUD will have control over other factors such as the compass.
- MoreHUD - Compatible.
- Customizable UI - Incompatible. Does the same thing.
- Minimalist Dialogue - Compatible if loaded after Bleak HUD. This goes for every mod that attempts to edit single elements seperately without editing the "hudmenu.swf" file (if anything edits this, it will be incompatible and require a patch).
- True Directional Movement - Currently asking for help to convert the assets. I will try when I have time, but if anyone has experience let's make it work.
