About this mod

A selection of 12 lore-friendly title screens, that randomise on each start up. Each title screen has individually tailored music from Skyrim's score. This is the ultimate main menu replacer!

Summary

12 scenic title screens for your Skyrim main menu, paired with the game's iconic score. Presented in 2:35.1 cinematic format and binded with a Skyrim-esque border. These title screens are totally in-keeping with the game's tone and offer a high quality and stylish start to your play session.

These screens will change randomly each time you boot up your game. This mod is a companion piece to my earlier release, JOURNEYMAN - 100 Custom Load Screen Megapack, which will overhaul your load screen experience, consistent with the style of WAYFINDER.

Now a title screen may not be something we all want to click through as fast as possible - WAYFINDER just might give you a new-found appreciation for Skyrim's boot up.






Requirements

1. Ianastara's Main Menu Randomizer SE: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/33574

2. NET. Script Framework: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/21294

3. Clean Menu [All in One]: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/3223

4. JOURNEYMAN - 100 Custom Load Screen Megapack [Optional]: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/62711

5. Menu and Load Smoke Removed for ENB [Optional]: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/51986


The first two mods are hard requirements. Please also endorse these mods once downloaded, and give the author's the support they deserve. WAYFINDER would not exist without these mods. Clean Menu is highly recommended, if you want the UI to look as it does in the images, with no Skyrim updates, Bethesda logo etc. Menu and Load Smoke Removed is highly recommended - this will clear up the title screens.



Installation


With mod manager or manually. Please install required mods first, and optional mods for a complete experience.

Note: When installing with mod manager, like Mod Organizer 2, it may suggest that the folder structure and data folder cannot be found. Click ignore and the mod will work fine. There is no 'data' folder perse. If this does not work, please install manually;

1. Download required mods and activate
2. Download WAYFINDER archive and extract
3. Place mainmenuwallpapers in Skyrim Special Edition / Data
4. Boot up the game and enjoy

Here is a list of the title screens with their respective title tracks. All of these tracks are from the Skyrim OST and do not violate any distribution or copyright rules.

DIMHOLLOW - Death in the Darkness
DOLMEN - Solstheim Night [Dragonborn unreleased score]

Note on In-Game Graphics

Skyrim's loading screens and main menu operate like a lit studio space; any model placed within it will be lit by the game engine. I have lowered the exposure and highlights of the JPGs to combat this. ENB may have some further effects. For me, the balance is good - you can see these in-game captures in the image section, and compared to the default JPGs.


Compatibility

Needless to say, stay away from other main menu mods. This mod should not conflict with anything else. Please read the install instructions for the required mods carefully - I am not responsible for your experiences for any required mods.


Special Thanks

Much gratitude to Ianastara for Main Menu Randomizer SE, the main technical component of this mod. I am not a programmer or coder, I just make things look pretty! Without this mod, WAYFINDER would not be possible. So thank you again to Ianastara - don't forget to endorse!

Future Plans

I may add more title screens in the future, when I have amassed more screenshots throughout my Skyrim playthrough. Please 'track' this mod if you are interested in any further developments. Thanks again for your interest!
