📋 About This Mod
HUDFramework
★ ABOUT ★
HUDFramework is a UI framework that makes it possible for mods to add new UI elements to the HUD in a conflict-free way.
Stats, time, widgets... and more! Welcome to a new world of UI modding.
★ DETAILS ★
Previously, any mod modifying the HUD would necessarily overwrite and conflict with every other HUD mod. HUDFramework solves this by dynamically loading individual interface mods into the HUD at runtime. It gives modders the tools to load custom widgets and communicate with their widgets.
Note that you need to have a mod installed that uses the framework to see any widgets! If you're looking for HUDFramework mods to install, there's a list on the sticky in the Comments section.
★ INSTALLATION ★
1. Install with your preferred mod manager, or copy the files in the download to your Fallout 4 Data folder. 2. Activate HUDFramework.esm in your mod manager, or via the Mods menu.
★ FEATURES (for mod authors) ★
- []Create HUD widgets and modify existing UI elements on-the-fly via a Papyrus interface. []Write AS3 expressions directly within Papyrus and have them dynamically evaluated in Scaleform. []One framework for both PC and console. HUDFramework benefits from, but does not require F4SE - you can bring your UI mods to consoles.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Massive endorsement count (107k) and downloads (7.2M) — this is the go-to UI framework for Fallout 4 modders.
- Essential for any mod that wants to add HUD elements — if you're modding UI, you'll likely need this.
- Stable and battle-tested; despite no updates since 2017, it's still the standard.
⚠️ Cons
- No updates since 2017 — might have compatibility issues with newer game patches or mods.
- As a framework, it does nothing on its own — you need other mods that depend on it to see any effect.
- No documentation or install instructions provided in the description, so you'll need to rely on mod pages that require it.
For Fallout 4 modders who want to create or use HUD mods that require a framework. Essential for anyone installing UI overhauls or custom HUD elements. Skip if you're a casual player who doesn't use UI mods — this is a backend tool, not a visual change.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Install with a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to handle file placement automatically.
- Check if the mods you want to use list HUDFramework as a dependency — you'll need it installed first.
- Since it's a framework, you won't see any changes in-game until you install a mod that uses it.
