📋 About This Mod

» features

- clearer images - removes dirt/blurring/layer separation effects from smart frames

- decreases interaction radius size - stand closer to interact

- makes all smart frames equal brightness

- 3 options for screen brightness - default bright, darker, extra dark

- optional files to remove the subtle screen scanlines animation

- optional: default image replacer - replaces "smart screen" image with a similar screenshot, no logo.

» modder's resource: default image replacer - wolvenkit project

if you want to replace the "smart screen" logo image with your own, you can unzip this source folder, add it to your own wolvenkit project, edit the PNGs in raw folder, import them to .xbm with wkit, and install. remove my default image replacer mod file if you want to use your own.

» installation

1. install only one main file (OR one file from optional section) to archive/pc/mod folder

2. optional: install the background replacer file to archive/pc/mod folder

to uninstall, delete the mod files from your archive/pc/mod folder

» potential issues

- may cause a crash on first install or uninstall

- this mod is a replacer of base game smart frames .ents and screen_frame.mi, so it will not be compatible with mods that also modify the same files

- as far as i'm aware nothing else uses the screen_frame.mi in game, but let me know if this mod appears to affect something else

- i think this mod would be better implemented as a script and/or integrated into native settings ui with sliders to control the options, but this is the extent of my skill. anyone interested in using this as a base for another mod, please feel free to reach out.

» special thanks & credits

- hugest of thank yous to crows, nippie, deavan, beanie, winks, glitchgarden for testing and feedback

- thanks to wheeze for the interaction prompt suggestions

- thank you everyone on the wolvenkit team for developing and constantly maintaining the tools that make this possible

- special bonus thank you to nippie for being my second when i had to square up against embedded meshes

» usage etc:

- please don't reupload anywhere else.
