📋 About This Mod
This mod will take away shadows of every item icon in the game, expect for estus. There was no easy way for me to remove the shadow without taking away detail from the estus, however it's not as noticeable in game.
> added a file with only weapon and shield shadows gone

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Does exactly what it says—no more shadows on item icons, clean and simple
- Comes with a patch for Informative Convenient Soul Icons, so you don't have to choose between mods
- Lightweight and easy to install, just drop it in your Data folder
⚠️ Cons
- Only 17 endorsements, so it's a niche mod that hasn't been widely tested
- Last updated in 2018, so it might not work with the latest Skyrim version or other UI mods
- No screenshots or detailed instructions, so you're flying blind on what exactly changes
For Skyrim players who find item icon shadows visually distracting and want a quick fix. Also for those using Informative Convenient Soul Icons who want to keep that mod but lose the shadows. Skip if you're happy with the default look or want more comprehensive UI overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, install this mod through it to keep your load order clean.
