describe

This mod adds a fully functional photo mode to Skyrim, inspired by later Bethesda games.

feature

Photo mode can be accessed from the suspend/system menu, or via MCM configured hotkeys.

Photos will be saved in the same location as regular screenshots (usually the Skyrim root directory).

Photos may also appear as loading screens (full-screen images or 3D paintings with an oil painting filter applied).

Supports gamepad and keyboard/mouse, automatic input switch is recommended.

See below to learn how to create your own custom overlay package

Any overridden game settings will be reset when the menu is closed.

Create a custom overlay

The overlay is a PNG file with full screen resolution (1920x1080, 2560x1440, 3840x2160), placed in Data/Interface/Photo Mode/Overlay

These are scaled down to native resolution in-game, so a 4K overlay should fit all 16:9 screens

The folder structure must be followed:

FOLDER_NAME (for category slider)

Overlay_1.png

Overlay_2.png

For example.

Effect

VIGNETTE.png

NOISE.png

Localization and fonts

This mod uses the font Jost and supports Latin and Cyrillic.

You can change the font data used by adding the font file (font.ttf) to /interface/photomode/fonts and editing fonts.ini to use the new font name

PhotoMode view scrolling and Q/E keys for navigation tabs not working

Workaround - Remap the PhotoMode tab navigation keys in MCM and use FreeFlyCam's view scrolling feature.

Immersive equipment display

The default hotkey to access the IED is the backspace key, which will trigger the IED during text entry

Solution-remap the IED key to something else

Screenshot Assistant

Compatible

This module has not been tested on 21:9/16:10 screens, so the UI may look a little strange.
