About this mod Machine translation
Shrink and lower subtitle display in VR's main HUD.
I'm tired of trying to navigate giant subtitle displays to see the faces of seated NPCs, or having bars and text obscure much of my front view while I'm talking to an NPC. With mods like Fuz-Ro D'oh and dialog mods that are not fully voiced, subtitles are necessary and unavoidable.
This is a simple edit to the VR HUD to reposition and shrink the subtitle display.
The display's scale has been reduced to 75% of normal, and it's positioned lower in the HUD.
The only file edited is interface/vr/vr_hmd_info.swf, which changes the scale and position of the subtitle's container frame.
This mod will not be compatible with any other mod that changes the interface/vr/vr_hmd_info.swf file.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- 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.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- 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.
