Description

This mod adds a fully functional Photo Mode to Skyrim, inspired by later Bethesda games.

Features

  • Photo Mode can be accessed from the Pause/System Menu, or with a hotkey.

  • Photos will be saved in My Documents/My Games/Skyrim Special Edition/Photos or your game screenshot directory.
  • Photos may also show up as loading screens (fullscreen images or as 3D paintings with an oil paint filter applied).

  • These options can be configured through MCM.


Settings

  • Camera :
Image composition grid overlays
Adjust field of view
Change view roll (tilt camera)
Configure vanilla DOF strength, distance and range
  • Time : 
Freeze, speed up or slow down time
Control time of day and timescale
Select and override current weather
  • Player/NPCS :
Show/hide characters
Set facial expressions, phonemes and other modifiers
Select and play any idle/animation
Select and play any effect shader or visual effect (set yourself on fire! or any custom VFX)
Change actor rotation and position

Select NPCs by opening the console menu and clicking on them. Click anywhere else to target the player
  • Filters
Adjust brightness, saturation and contrast, apply a tint to your image
Select and play any imagespace modifier
  • Overlays
Apply any custom overlay of your choice such as frames or logos
See below on how to create your own custom overlay packs

  • Any overridden game settings will be reset on menu close.

Styles/Fonts

  • Adjust background color, border size, icon scale etc by editing Data/Interface/PhotoMode/styles.ini.
  • Color values should be hex (#FFFFFFFF) or RGBA values (255,255,255,255)

  • Adjust fonts/font scale by editing Data/Interface/PhotoMode/fonts.ini.

  • Changes will be automatically applied by reopening Photo Mode in game.

Creating Custom Overlays

  • Overlays are full screen resolution (1920x1080, 2560x1440, 3840x2160) PNG files placed in Data/Interface/PhotoMode/Overlays
  • These are scaled down to native resolution in game, so one 4K overlay should fit all 16:9 screens
  • Folder structure must be followed:

FOLDER_NAME (used in CATEGORY slider)
OVERLAY_1.png
OVERLAY_2.png

eg.

EFFECTS

Compatibility

  • FreeFlyCam
PhotoMode's view roll and Q/E keys used to navigate tabs does not work
Solution - remap PhotoMode tab navigation keys in MCM, and use FreeFlyCam's view roll feature.

  • Immersive Equipment Display
Default hotkey to access IED is Backspace, which will trigger IED during text input
Solution - remap IED's key to something else

  • Screenshot Helper
Compatible

  • Skyrim Upscaler
Compatible. Requires version 1.1.4 or higher

  • This mod has not been tested on 21:9 screens so there may be some oddities with the UI.
