📋 About This Mod

DESCRIPTION

Makes some improvements and changes to the inventory while still keeping the style of the original.

Currently the Dialogue window, Rest window, and Inventory window has been changed. NOTE: The trade window has not been changed, while it looks very similar to the inventory it is its own unique interface.

Dialogue UI

  • []Reduced the number of special dialogue buttons and made them into selectable topics

    []Removed the copy to logbook button, instead you can double click on a dialogue to copy it

    []Reduced the size of the dialogue window to about half and moved some elements around to achieve this

    []Portrait is now optional with a few selectable options, but is disabled by default

    []Removed any text written on the UI texture and made them to labels

    Inventory UI

    • []Increased the size of the inventory

      []Removed the large text category buttons and moved them to a more sensible position

      []Removed the "remove" button, removing items is now exclusively done by the right mouse button

      []Moved the gold button to the top of the interface, showing your current gold

      []Moved the wagon button next to the "ground" button and changed them to toggle between the different modes

      []If you click "equip" on a item that is not equipable, it will always try to "use" the item instead

      []Removed any text written on the UI texture and made them to labels

      Rest UI

      • []Added message on rest window to indicate if you can rest or not

        []Added a slider, similar to newer TES games to set how long to rest

        []See the current time while resting or waiting

        []Automatically hides buttons that you can't current do, or would be illegal to do

        Overall

        • []Mod Options to enable/disable each UI separately

          []Option to override all textures used. Place any texture you wish to override with the correct name in "StreamingAssets\Textures\UI".

        INSTALLATION

        • []Download the correct version for your operating system (Windows/OSX/Linux)

          []Copy the "uncannyui.dfmod" into your StreamingAssets\Mods folder

          UNINSTALL

          • Remove "uncannyui.dfmod" from the "StreamingAssets/Mods" folder.
