About this mod Machine translation

Provide HUD when needed. Don't hide when hiding. Get the best of both worlds. The usefulness of having a HUD without one.

What is iHUD?

The purpose of iHUD is to give you an immersive feeling without a HUD, while maintaining the usefulness of having a HUD. It takes permanently visible HUD elements, such as the compass and crosshair, and hides them when not needed. Therefore, the motto is:

Provide HUD when needed. Don't hide when hiding.

This mod wouldn't be possible without the help and work of the SkyUI modding community, especially Schlangster, Kratos, and Mardoxx.

Credit also goes to the SKSE64 team for making SKSE64.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
